Thank you so much. KZfaq is a lot harder than people think with filming , editing and ofcourse the KZfaq algorithm is not kind . I appreciate you watching ☺️

Hi! Thanks for this video. I really loved that drawing of the apples that you showed at the start. Do you have a video of how you drew that? I’ll give the faber-castell charcoal pencils a go. 👍🏻

Wow interesting! I just checked my "Faber Castell Design Ebony," extra smooth pencil and its a value scale 2,. I have that same value finder. I have always loved working with Graphite. Have you tried the Faber-Castell Pitt Matte Graphite Pencil - 6 Pencil Tin Set? It has a 10B and 12B so I might order it to try. Your work is just so beautiful!!!!

Thank you so much for the compliment! No I hadn't heard of that set by faber . . Is it new ? I'd be very interested to try and review for the channel 😊

SO SO helpful. I’ve been using dollar tree graphite actually not too bad! And Generals charcoals. I do have Faber Castell harder stick pastels, their black in the set is very dark. I’m wondering if it’s made from charcoal?

thank you for your comment and your question . the faber castell polychromos pastels are not charcoal . pastels and charcoals are different products but the black should work similarly and are fully compatible .

What' about Faber Castell Pitt Graphite Matt?? They look like Charcoal, yet they behave more like a graphite pencil rather than charcoal. Doesn't that mean, we can have even better results using the Pitt Matt, instead of charcoal? (Just a theory, haven't tried out to see how that would work!)

Thanks for your comment 🙂 at the time of filming this, that product did not yet exist. However I have since purchased that product for review. They are pretty good but not perfect ☺️ I'll keep you updated .
