    (Good tip to replenish Kneaded eraser try this method) You can re-soften them as well and bring back the pick up of graphite off the paper by masking tape gum that has a light gum glue on the back, Or the gum that`s on any sticky label, just dab the kneaded eraser on the sticky part and then massage the gum in, If you use to much gum and the kneaded eraser becomes to soft then either add some fresh kneaded eraser to the old stuff or rub a white eraser on paper and add that to your kneaded eraser to ease back on the stickiness.

    Hi, Firstly I think the work you do is so amazing, liking your Technics and most of your drawing look so realistic, But I am a little confused though on this method, in part 1 you said that your making the drawing 1-1/2 times bigger but to me the drawing looks the same size? am I just not relating the differences or did you change and do the measurements the same,?

    31:50. He's making the drawing 1.5 bigger than the reference. However, the mark of the outside corner of the eye, it's too close to the center line, compared to the reference photo. I think Darrel got it wrong there.

    What I took from the 5 pencil method was there are no "lines" in nature....objects are next to each other and each has their own "edge"......far or close to each other.....So when I draw I should draw values as I truly see them and dont "add" lines around everything....this understanding helped me a lot and improved my drawing ten fold.

    Its good to be reminded there are variable pencil grades which aid in shading and bringing out values on a piece of work. Many times we stay with several favorite pencils and incorporate stumps and methods of smudging, particularly fingertip number 1. I enjoyed this tutorial very much. Thank you🙂

  • @retardno002
    @retardno002 10 месяцев назад

    The Koh-I-Noor 1500 is the reason American pencils are yellow. When Franz Hardmuth presented them for the first time they blew people's minds, they were the first pencils that came in no less than 17 gradations. The US manufacturers looked up to them and copied the yellow paintjob as a symbol of quality. These 1900s are a fancier version of the 1500s, but from my experience the main difference is the paint job (color and thickness) which makes it feel more premium and rounds off the corners. I guess that impacts how it feels in hand, I prefer the 1500's sharper corners. I used 1500 pencils while studying industrial and graphic design, moved away from them for years while I explored other pencils like the Staedtlers, Faber Castells, Blackwings, Tombows, Mitsubishis, and so on, but the journey has gone full circle and I've now returned to the Koh-I-Noors for some reason. They give me a lot of control and confidence. Perhaps I've come to appreicate the hardness and lack of tone variation after searching for dark smooth pencils for so long. For drawing, using a full set, these are the superior product. If you were to own just one pencil and create a full drawing with it I'd recommend the Blackwing or a Japanese brand. The Faber Castell 9000s and Staedtler Lumographs aren't worth the extra cost over the Koh-I-Noors and produce very similar results in my experience. This is a great value brand with good quality products, at least here in Europe.
