I AM A BEGINNER IN PENCIL DRAWING. PROVIDE FEW TECHNIQUES TO UPDATE MYSELF AND IMPROVE MORE.
Hey, seriously, do not listen to dumb things like "use different pencils" and stuff like that, when I started, I only used HB pencils, and it trained me in holding a pencil, the most important thing. In time, you will learn how much pressure you must apply with just an HB pencil and get different shades without using different pencils. I am dong Graphics Design now, so I know how heplful this was, also, try making different shape as precise as you can. Most people think about getting into deeper much harder things, when they can't even get the shapes right, you have to be abel to outline exactly what is in front of you. These are some basic things you can work on, let me know if you have any questions.
