Hey there! Welcome back! Overall, your values look good, and the drawing looks great! :D I would use these three pencils in the following way: 2H – For planes that are directly exposed to the light (leaving some areas of the paper white for the highlights). 2B – For planes that are not directly exposed to the light but are still affected by the ambient light. 4B – For planes in shadow, cast shadows, and areas of ambient occlusion. Think of it as if you were shading a simple box, like the example I placed above. Starting in a simple way by dividing your values into three makes it much easier to establish a solid base, and then achieve smoother blending or transitions between values later. On the other hand, try using thicker lines where forms overlap to create better separation between shapes, and thinner lines everywhere else. Hope this helps!
