CarbOthello v Pitt Pencils v Caran d'Ache. In this narrated Pastel Pencil Study, I discuss how my skin tone technique can be applied using three different brands of Pastel pencils. I show you how to apply the different approaches needed to make the brand work to achieve a similar result. This was created especially for the many requests regarding to just do a portrait solely using one brand name. I really enjoyed the experienced. First time using Faber Castell Pit pastels and I love them. I love to share my techniques and tips for pastel Portraits. This video footage has been slowed down to Real time speed in places so you can take a closer look.

Along with improving my art skills, I'm finding your voice overs help me to manage my pain levels and help me to cope daily. I can't express how much you help me in so many ways. Thank you and bless you. I'm still struggling to make flesh tones using your technique, but I'll keep practicing and watching your videos. Since I'm mostly house bound now, I miss having honest critiques. It's nice when people say nice things on my Instagram postings, but that doesn't help to promote growth.

Wonderful demonstration. I have the CarbOthello and Faber Castel and love them both and use them a lot in my animal life work. They work so well with both pan and stick pastels. I have held off on the Caran D'ache because so many seem to complain about them being difficult to sharpen and use. Watching you be patient with them and achieving the objective reinforces that the pencils are just fine, it is all about the right technic for the tool.

Such an excellent explanation of the differences in feel and workability of each brand. I enjoy each for different reasons but before I had the Pastelmat I leaned more on the Carbothellos and the Caran ‘de ache pastel pencils but I do enjoy the Faber-Castell ones on this substrate. It seems to use less tooth and I can get down my preliminary work. A blend of them all is worth it. Thank you for putting into words and illustration how each contributes.😊

Also have ordered about a dozen Caran D’ache but have had an issue with scratchiness with over half of them :( maybe there was a quality issue? I was looking for a softer pencil to add details on wildlife work on velour paper.

@DavePortersArt Жыл бұрын

Hi Barb, thanks for watching the Pitt pastels are a harder pencil, great for details. The issue you are having with the Caran d'Ache could be the glue that holds the lead in place, I tend to make sure I shafer off this with a knife. You cant go far wrong with the carbothello brand, only be aware of the lightfastness of some of the pencils. 🙏

Hi Dave, which make of Pencils would you rate in your opinion as out of these 3 for a good place to start?.

@DavePortersArt 8 ай бұрын

I would say the CarbOthlleo as the price is good and the quality is superb... one thing I would do is change some of the blues and purples to other brands because of the light fastness is poor with them. Also buy the Whites... Caran d'Ache, Faber Castel and the Rembrandt stick white and you are good to go.

Hello Dave, I ordered individual pencils to draw with you on Patreon and to master your way. But I only have very large sheets of 50/70 cm white Pastelmat. What is the best way to make this gray? Because it is too valuable not to use them. how would you make the sheets gray?

Hi Julia, it is something I have not done myself as I have always used Pastelmat dark grey. I would suggest cutting strips off and try water colour ~ a mixture on Burnt Umber and Ultramarine Blue to make your grey... its a case of experimenting.

Hey i have a question - Why do you use green and red instead of just using a brown pencil? I mean they both create brown,so i wonder why do you choose to mix both of them,it feels more complicated to me :)

@DavePortersArt 5 ай бұрын

Hi there, I do use just brown and red sometimes for the under drawing... tbh for years | just used the brown, but now I feel that as the green is complementary to red this makes a natural desaturation and shadows. I do add brown to make the deeper shadows still. I use sometime brown and blue to make like a black colour, but with pastels I have to add the black sometimes. It is very subtle and I feel it give more of a natural look to the skin. All the very best 🙏

I see that you use some colors that are at the lowest end of the lightfastness scale! Can you explain why? Thank you.
