Introduction:

Drawing with colored pencil is super easy if you use the right colors and have drawn a good sketch. Unlike the graphite pencils, colored pencils cannot be easily erased, so we have to draw carefully, particularly the darker areas. Always draw a parts with colored pencil pressing down lightly and if it looks good, color over the same area pressing down hard. Buy good brand of colored pencils and smooth paper. If you don't have a lot of say red pencils, you can get more nuances with only one pencil, by controlling how hard you press when you draw. In the image below I've drawn with one red pencil three nuances. In the first example I pressed hard, in the second I pressed normally and in the third example I pressed lightly.
