Complementary to the chess rook, here are 2 chess pawns I drew with graphite pencils.

Plastic is not simple to draw. It usually does not have much texture, like wood, for example.
In addition, plastic (usually) does not shine (have strong contrast) like some metals.

Therefore, gentleness and smoothness are required.

He he he he I see these pawns are made in China because both have a vertical line. Good job!

Today is the International Holocaust Day, I think there are some conmemorations there.

Yes, they are probably from China, like so many things.
We have a Holocaust day in Israel, when everything is closed.

I've always found chess pieces fun to draw 😄
Wow, your pencils are so well sharpened!! I should learn from you, I'm a bad student in this genre

But I'm not a student anymore.. so no excuse for me!!

OMG, classic sharpener? That make such a mess with debris? A canister sharpener will change your life.
Maybe it won't change your life, but it will be cleaner :o)
