Dog Portrait from Photo, trio

Unfortunately a very poor shot due to lack of sunshine or daylight! And here is the trio completed, I think you should be able to click on this image to enlarge it. I'm really very pleased with the finished portrait, each one I complete adds to my skills, I think usually pencil portraits are done with softer pencils but I mainly used a 2H which is quite hard to ensure all the fine details were captured and then I used an HB for the darker areas and Baron the rottweiler, as both Daisy and Saffie were lighter coloured dogs this contrasted well. I'm intending to finish Jess today and go back to the labradors, I still have a lot more to do but I do feel a little less stressed that by the end of today I will have two less portraits on my 'to do' list.
