 I recommend not being afraid to use dark shades. Perhaps it would be very good for you to draw only with charcoal in order to get used to using very dark contrasts. Also, try to be very diligent with your strokes and do not use an eraser too much. You should rarely use an eraser when you first start out, because it's all too easy use it as a crutch. It's sort of like playing SC:BW as a kid trying to beat the campaign. You fail so you try out cheats. Then you feel bad because you can't beat any scenarios without cheating. Don't cheat with the eraser  | ||

instead of drawing the shapes of things as lines, look at the difference in darkness and light. Where the light hits, it is lighter, and in the shadow's it's darker. So he said just zoom in on a small piece of something, and then shade it until it looks the right shade of brightness. | ||

Yeah that's true too. It makes sense because the shoulder is a bigger joint than the elbow, wrist, and finger knuckles. So When you move the same distance with the shoulder, it is a smaller angle of rotation (meaning greater control). | ||
