CHARCOAL PENCIL ART OF 'NEYMAR'

This was my first ever made portrait using the grid system, I have always and will always be in love with free-hand sketch with ink. but you have to admit, grid does make everything easier. While searching for a reference photo,I came across an article on one of my favorite athlete, 'Neymar'. The star Brazilian soccer winger that currently plays for Barcelona, really liked the picture they used, I used charcoal pencil and a bit of 2B pencil on A3 paper. Was fun all the way, never did sold it, kept it for myself.
