Agreed I definitely still need to work on that!😭 Not to use graphite as an excuse, but I am hoping soon to get a pack of these Mars Black pencils I recently heard about (which draw like graphite but are as dark as charcoal) to help me go darker! Peace!

Someone gave me a box of super-black graphite pencils for Christmas. I figure they're about a 4B, but they're so soft and smooth it's like drawing with butter.
