This. Was. HARD!
Not the drawing---no, Fred (right) and Sam (left) were easy enough in that respect ...what was difficult was delineating them with a 6B pencil! D:
I drew these two mice (from Atkinson Film-Arts animated version of 'The Tin Soldier') with a vintage 4H Zephyr pencil. I went over the 4H's nearly impossible to see lines with this 6B pencil from Tombo.
...And, yes, I drew Sam in a pose inspired by Chip the Cookie Dog (because I thought the idea was funny). :P
Anyway...
The 6B lead is very, very soft. This particular pencil is used in the making of calligraphy---it's not meant for cartooning, especially on the small, ACO scale I draw at! XD
Even so, the 6B Tombo is a handsome pencil, with its white stripe against its brilliant blue paint. :D
Still, the end result of this card is imperfect; you can yet see some of my original draw lines (I was afraid to erase them----this card will smear much easier than most. ^^
