Lovely! I think I’ll try both of these techniques. I abandoned pencils as I’m a bit clumsy and impatient, and never had a lesson. I always used paint to put reflections in eyes (or whiskers or whatever) as I couldn’t figure out how else to do it.

Totally understand this, when i first started with pencils the only thing I was focused on was speeding up the process as I found it sooo tedious and I’m not particularly patient-I would very much recommend honing your skills by taking on really small subjects, a tiny mouse for example or a little bird no more than about 7cm in circumference, that way you can complete something in a much shorter time and keep the momentum going xx
