Using a Tortillion in Drawing

So I grabbed my tortillion and rubbed the first little pig's body gently to make it soft and slightly out-of-focus - it's the first time I've used one.  I could have used a paper stump, but I think the smaller tortillion (6mm) is a little more accurate for small areas.  I just wanted to fluff out the fine hairs, especially around the edges.  It worked well I think.
