Pentel Graphgear mechanical pencil review and sketching

Taking a look at the Pentel graphgear pencils, sizes 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9. I see a lot of artists using these mechanical pencils so I decided to give them a go. Throughout the video we look at the design of the barrel, what comes with them, how they feel, what leads fit in (testing colour neox eno)..etc. Basically anything I could think of to look at and review on camera! And then I finish with a sketch of the Witcher / Geralt of Rivia :) Links to the pencil can be found below.
Let me know if there are any pens or other art supplies you guys want me to test out on camera and give my opinion on :) What are your thoughts on the graphgear pencils?
You can watch a slightly slower version of the Witcher sketch on it's own with some commentary here.

Wrong. This is a dark binding agent drawing. He didn't apply enough graphite to reach the grade. Only a tiny amount of graphite was applied to the paper and almost no preservative was applied to protect the graphite dust. The manufacturers are in charge of the shading and grading. The artist isn't allowed to be in charge of shading. You select the premixed leads. You agreed to apply the lead FIRMLY AND CONSISTENTLY.

What's the suitable lead for sketching? HB or 2B?

@SketchedbySte 3 жыл бұрын

I think a lot of it is personally preference, for me I prefer the harder leads to create fainter lines to start my sketches ( so moving along the H range as opposed to the B range ) HB is in the middle and still perfect for sketching. Unless I have mixed it up, the B range is where it gets darker and maybe a little less forgiving, also it has a tendency to smudge more, that being said 2B shouldn't be too extreme.

thanks for the video. im goning to be honest. ive always thought the Graphgear 1000 is an ugly looking pencil. Of course that doesnt mean its a bad pencil. I just have a bit of a problem with larger all metal body mechanical pencils. Ive used a staedtler mars micro 775 for 25 plus years now and love it but thought id dip my toe into more expensive penciloptions. I brought the Rotring 600 which a beautifully crafted bit of kit. Full metal body and very elegant. But i find it too top heavy and more importantly too thin so ive mainly stuck with the mars micro even though it was a fraction of the rotrings price. I recently picked up the mars technico (not my first clutch pencil) and graphgear 500 and i thknk ive found a replacement in the later as my main mechanical pencil. I love them both but the 500 is beautifully balanced and has a lovely large metal grip. Have u ever used the 500 and if so do you prefer it to the 1000 and which do u prefer over all the graphgears or the technico?. thanks

@SketchedbySte 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching! I completely understand that. I have a Pentel mechanical pencil that is quite lightweight which is one of my favourites (It's 0.3 and red) I have used the Staedtler mars quite a bit in the past too. I like them but the ones I have are all 2.0 thickness and I generally prefer working with thinner points. There was another mechanical pencil I wanted to try, I cannot think of what brand it is though, it is black and is triangular in shape. For me I don't really find any 'better' than others though, I think I just like the feel of changing it out after a little while. It never hurts to have a few different types ! :)

I think that the gg 1000 is the most heavy and center balance. The most confortable for me are the GG 500, tip balanced, and lightweigt. Inthemars technico I think the all plastic is better than the metal grip mars technico. And more versátil too because you can sharp the point with the sharp barrel sharpenner and have a lead Minor than 0.3 if you wish. But my fav is gg 500

Hey, so I think people might have very different opinions on this topic, because the beauty of graphite pencils / mechanical pencils is that they work beautifully on most people regardless of smooth / flat or textured ( maybe not so well on shiny board / papers in comparison ) but for me personally, I love using pencils on regular printer paper and most types of paper that you can get in cheap sketchbooks! There is also a Strathmore paper called drawing paper which I think it a little thicker, but I haven't tried that to comment on.

Hey, good question, one that I'm not actually sure of myself either! I had a quick look online though and this is what I found 'A drafting pencil is a type of mechanical pencil that is designed for precision drawing and sketching. It has a longer lead sleeve and a harder lead than a regular mechanical pencil. A drawing pencil is a general term for any pencil that can be used for drawing, which may include drafting pencils, mechanical pencils, or traditional wooden pencils.'

@SketchedbySte Жыл бұрын

Hey, I think both 0.3 leads and 0.5 leads for the graphgear pencils are both so don't sweat it too much between the 2 :) I quite like the 0.3 but because it's so thin and 'sharp' it can indent a little onto your paper depending what you use i.e when you erase some lines you might notice lines indented a little onto thicker paper, that being said I haven't had many issues with the 0.3 snapping much either, although I am not heavy handed. It sounds like 0.5 could be a safer bet but honestly either are great, down to personal preference I guess :)

I can draw dragons from the front as well as the side, but please don't think I'm boasting, cos believe me, I've got nothing to boast about, I'm getting better but I still have a way to go. One way to make your dragons stand out is to use the features of different animals and mix things up a bit, you will fail at times, but when you get it right, when you create artwork that is unique to you, there's no better feeling. All the reference you need is there in front of you, all you have to do is observe and you can't go wrong. My God....I'm starting to turn into Gandalf!!!

Hey, good question. It's probably the size I use the least, but that's probably more to do with the face#t that I draw quite small and in small A5 sizes sketchbooks ( a bad habit ) so I like my lines to be real thin and light. The pencil itself is actually brilliant, including the 0.9, and I would argue it has the advantage that it is less likely have the 0.9 leads snapping too. For me I use them mainly if I want to go over my pencil sketch with thicker lines, on the outside for example. I think a regular pencil is closer to a 2.0 so a 0.9 lead is still great for accuracy and a nice size. I think any of the Pentel mechanical pencils are winners though, whichever size you go with.

Del GG1000 tengo el 0.5, 0.7 y 0.9mm, desde hace como un mes, pero no he podido desenroscar la parte superior en el 0.7 y 0.9mm. De todas formas ya no uso eso como cuando estudiaba en el colegio o ingeniería así que mi opinión puede ser subjetiva. También tengo Graphgear800 en 0.3mm , el Graphgear 500 0.5mm y el Graph600 0.5mm pero es más por motivos de colección que de uso. Estoy por tratar de adquirir el Rotring 600 0.5mm, pero en mercadolibre está muy costoso porque lo traen importado.

@@HPcarnace mi amigo. Yo también colecciono y soy de Colombia. Que gusto encontrar a alguien que tenga el amor por los portaminas. Aunque tengo muy pocos, pero ando en busca del p200 en 0.3. En mercadolibre hay u a tienda que está en Medellín kioskito japonés se llama. Están trayendo algunos modelos interesantes. Y en Bogotá está butaca art.

@@LordVankisher Precisamente a ellos ya les compré por Mercadolibre. A los de Kiosquito Japonés les compré el Graph 1000 for pro 0.5 y unas minas. Creo que a los de Butaca les compré los Graphgear 1000 (0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.7 y 0.9) y algunas minas. No recuerdo si a ellos también les compré el Graphgear 500 0.5 y 0.7mm. A un vendedor de Bucaramanga le compré el GraphGear 800 0.3 y el Roting 600 0.5 mm y 600 ball point los compré por Encárguelo. Se me olvidó mencionarte que en la página de pentel colombia compré el Graph 600 0.5 aunque no miré muchos modelos interesantes. El año que entra posiblemente compre el Kuru Toga, que aunque está en Mercado Libre es el modelo de plástico, estoy esperando a ver si está el modelo Roulette (metálico) a buen precio y el de Staedlter 925

Yes they're great for drawing with, specially the .3 and the .5 for precision and details. I have all the lead sizes of the Graphgear 500 which is the budged version of this pencil, this one is great cause you can put it in your pencil case and take it to school with our worrying about bending or braking the tip

Wrong. You AGREED TO FOLLOW THE PRINCIPLES OF partical grading / filtering. Graphite dust won't stick to paper. Graphite dust was mixed with a binding agent. They sifted the graphite dust into fine grades. Mixed each grade with a different mix of binding agent. 2B drawn lightly will not put enough graphite onto the paper to reach the grade of 2H. The percentage of graphite falls below the grade and its no longer considered to be a graphite drawing. Graphite must be thick enough to reach the professional grade and it must have enough preservative applied so it can stay on the paper for a very long time. You didn't put enough graphite onto the paper. Your graphite content isn't up to the grade. You didn't apply enough preservative agent to protect the drawing. You made a dark wax preservative drawing and DIDN'T make a preserved graphite drawing.

Why does everyone on KZfaq now say "these ones"? It's horrible grammar and just sounds silly. Get rid of the word "ones". I like these means the same thing as I like these ones, but without grating on the ear. It really is strange how so many KZfaq sites have people who say this. It's not only horrible grammar, it's first grade horrible grammar.

I'm afraid all I can say, is it's how I speak, whether right or wrong, it's a shame that something like poor grammar can get to someone so much, but everyone is entitled to their opinion and I appreciate you watching the video and the feedback. I would definitely advise not checking out my replies or how I talk in other videos though as you will notice a lot of mistakes! My spelling is even worse :)
