TurnBackThePendulum [2012-12-28 05:39:54 +0000 UTC]

Wait, wait, wait, wait. How do you use the paint brush to blend!? I have heard of many techniques, but this is new. But it looks like it works really well. I always end up using my fingers, so they always get really stained with graphite :/

r-a-ven In reply to TurnBackThePendulum [2012-12-28 12:02:24 +0000 UTC]

I use the brush without water.. just shade the way you usually do.. then for blending use the brush instead of your fingers.. it's best for hair.. and it works well when you have darker shading.. you can also try powdering your graphite using sand paper.. then use the powder for shading with a brush..

r-a-ven In reply to Elilou [2012-05-08 09:05:16 +0000 UTC]

well you don't really need expensive materials to create an art.. you can always use what you have.. you can use ordinary pencils..^^ you just have to apply the techniques you've learned and just improvise^^ like for blending you could use tissue or cotton.. and for eraser ordinary eraser will do..^^

Elilou In reply to r-a-ven [2012-05-08 09:16:55 +0000 UTC]

Of course ! ^^
And that's what I do.
I just though I had to say it since, like you said "you can use ordinary pencils... you just have to apply the techniques you've learned and just improvise" ^^
I'll keep in mind your idea for blending ...

Anyway, it's a good tutorial. Full of advices
