We had to draw on newsprint because there wasn't enough cartridge paper to go round. Newsprint is difficult because it is shiny and the charcoal rubs off as easily a it goes on. The model was made to pose with a stick - a couple of different ones were used. He had strong muscles and was really good at exerting himself during the pose - sometimes to the point where his entire body was shaking with the effort.
