In this unnarrated demo, I shade a sphere using a graphite pencil, with a 5 minute time limit.

Thanks for Demo 3
1. The Darks I think were shaded with a 6B up to 4 mins.
2. Then the Lights were 4B
3. Back to 6B after the Kneaded Eraser Highlight, to touch up the Darks at the end.
The pencil tip helped spot the pencil changes, thanks.

I'm not sure about when a line around the outer circumference would be considered
an outline taking away from the shading effect. Any advice would be great.

If any more projects and demos with shading are planned, it would be helpful to know what pencil hardness is used in each step of the drawing process.

Good idea. I can help a bit for this video. shadows were made with 6b and lights with 4b. Not sure with the marks in the beginning but I guess HB or 2b.
