You're looking for a step by step. This video isn't rubbish - it's very helpful for people learning new textures.

I'm not good at drawing realistic animal fur, and this video helped me! So if it doesn't help you, ok, then don't look at it, but let other people look at it...i do recommend this to people that wanna learn :). I'm not trying to be rude, it's just that he is really good at drawing and he wants to learn people as well. I'm sorry if my English is rubbish.

I would really like to know what animal species this "fur" is supposed to be. I have worked with many veterinarians large, small and exotic animals and have never seen any type of animal with these types of coats. Thumbs down, dude :P

+Rhonda Magee How unnecessarily rude.... this could be a stylised fantasy interpretation of animal.... it's art, not an animal anatomy drawing course.

+Rhonda Magee Does it really matter which animal the fur is supposed to belong too? Rude.

My Newfoundland Dog has fur like the first, the second could be any course haired animal, such as wolf, shorter strokes. Of course this lesson was about texture and value, showing how it can be achieved. Length of strokes, contrast and range are all the choice of the artist once the skill has been shown. The same principles can be applied to hair, whiskers, beards etc. It might be to your benefit to re watch the video now you hopefully have the correct perspective in mind. ☺️

+Rhonda Magee Hi Rhoda, Thanks for your comment. Perhaps you're missing the point. This lesson demonstrates how to handle the value and shading necessary to create the illusion of texture, like fur. It is is simply two different approaches to accomplishing this. You can apply these principles to drawing any fur that you like.

The second one looks like dog fur or in particular a wolf.

I draw with mechanical pencils, witch I'm fine with, but shading and blending lines is next to impossible for me. Please help

Ashley Dlugosz commented on 29 Jun 2015

yeah I like to draw with mechanical but its very hard to use light pressure because when I try to use light pressure my hand feels awkward

Art ala Carte commented on 15 Jun 2015

Mechanical pencil are really great for sharp lines but they are really hard to get a blend or shadow. Try a very light pressure.

Thank you for sharing your process. I especially found the list of materials helpful, since I have struggled to draw those whiskers, myself! Very nice work. Love the cat's eyes!
