ADRIAN MONK (Tony Shalhoub) | Time lapse photorealistic graphite portrait drawing

I finally drew one of my favorite characters ever - Mr. Monk! We have a lot in common, that's why I adore him so much. This project was supposed to be quick, but hey! In the end, it wasn't. This one took 23 hours to draw. Enjoy!

Tools used:
Fabriano Artistico hot pressed watercolor paper in traditional white
Faber Castel 9000 pencils
Faber Castell Pitt Graphite Matt (8-14B) pencils
Koh-I-Noor kneaded erasers - blue and red
2 different kneaded erasers - the blue one is a bit harder, better for erasing areas completely or majorly, the red one is much softer, better for blending and lightening areas
pencil eraser from Koh-i-Noor
Tombow mono eraser - both circular and rectangular
Faber Castell Perfection 7056 pencil eraser (the pink one)
just the brush on the Faber Castell perfection 7058B pencil eraser (to dust off eraser dust)
Koh-i-Noor graphite powder
a natural hair brush for blending graphite powder
blending stick
Faber Castell Double Hole Sharpener box
