<li>Graphite Pencil and Eraser</li>
<li>Assorted Color Pencils</li>
<li>Tape</li>
<li>Onion Skin Transparent Drawing Paper</li></center>

<h2>The Steps</h2>
<p><br></p>

<p>&nbsp;I began by drawing a series of circles to represent Crash's joints and features and connected them with lines to create a simple skeleton to draw over.</p>

<p>&nbsp;Then I did some line work to rough out the image.</p>

<p>&nbsp;With the basic line work done I covered the drawing with a second piece of thin "onion skin" paper and taped it in place.  The reason I did this was to keep the pencil lead graphite from smearing together with the color pencils I plan to use next.</p>

<p>&nbsp;Then I filled in the color sections lightly on the new piece of transparent paper with my color pencils.</p>

<p>I'm using a 24 piece set of artist quality Prismacolor Primier colored pencils.</p>

<p>&nbsp;With the colored pencils now defining the image I removed the paper with the original pencil line work.</p>

<p>&nbsp;Whoops, looks like we don't have any gray pencil in our 24 piece set for the gray on Crash's shoes.  We'll just use light purple for now...</p>

<p>&nbsp;...and mix yellow over top of the purple (it's complimentary color) to create a more neutral tone.</p>

<p>&nbsp;Finally I picked up my black colored pencil and shaded in some final parts like his eyebrows, hair, and some small shadows here and there.</p>
