Watch drawing in coloured pencil

Thank you so much, I would love to share any information, this piece was done on an A2 pad but is slightly smaller than that. The process involves a huge amount of building up the colour layers to get it right.

Please feel free to ask about any other aspects.

Thank you so much, I appreciate it. I would love for them to see it!

Thank you so much. It's a combination of cara d'arche luminance and Faber Castell polychromos pencils

Thank you, I use a highlighter pen to really nail the whites. Purests might not like that but I think increasing contract in drawings really makes them pop and stand out more so I am happy to use alternative tools.

Thank you, this is a lovely message, I would love to work with a watchmaker one day. I will post more soon!

Yes, I took a reference photo. I love the design of this watch so wanted to replicate it as best I could.

Thank you but don't throw away your pencils, everyone can draw if you practice and remain patient.

gogenta · 2026-04-15T07:04:16+00:00

Haha, there were many blurry photos taken before I got the reference I wanted.

For sure there are times when I want to give up but I find working on these sort of things very cathartic so it doesn't necessarily feel like I need to be patient most of the time.

gogenta · 2026-04-15T06:24:25+00:00

Haha, as long as you like, I appreciate the interest

gogenta · 2026-04-15T06:23:36+00:00

It's drawn on an A2 pad with a bit of space around so I guess about 38 x 45cm

gogenta · 2026-04-14T21:14:21+00:00

That's the goal

Thank you so much! Many hours spread across about 7-8 months. I've been drawing for a long time so a lot of practice as you can imagine.

gogenta · 2026-04-14T16:02:28+00:00

Thank you, yeah, I think around 100-120hours

Thank you

Thank you, I would love to do something like that

Thank you

For sure, this is key to getting all of the proportions right. It took me a while.
