Pencil Sketch Prompts of Specific Images

alias_sqbrYesterday I burned the tips of some of the fingers on my left hand, today they're mostly better but I still want to avoid using them too much, which is tough given how many of my hobbies involve typing things with my left hand. Even digital art uses key shortcuts.
But traditional art does not! And I'd been meaning to do some pencil sketching anyway, keep those muscles trained. But I find using my imagination with traditional art very frustrating since it's so much harder to tweak if I change my mind.
So! Link me specific images to draw as pencil sketches! Photos, anime characters, landscapes, whatever, any level of detail is fine but anything complex may be represented with evocative scribbles ;) If you don't have a specific image in mind then something I can easily find a single reference for is also fine (eg "a cat", someone already did that but I can always draw another ;)).
No zombies, nothing too sexual, and if you don't have permission to use the image it should be like... stock photos or famous art etc, not some indie artist's original work or some random person's selfie.
Quality will probably be mid since pencil sketches are not my default medium for a reason, but you will get the warm glow of helping me improve as an artist and rest my fingers.

Date: 2023-10-16 09:55 am (UTC)I had a little trouble finding any pictures of multiple bears that I really liked, but just as I was about to give up and draw something boring, the perfect reference came down my tumblr dash. I guess it was fate, or the magic of Bear Week :) https://alias-sqbr.tumblr.com/post/731329331463405568/faux-watercolour-of-four-bears-sitting-in-a-river
