I use a 4B graphite. The paper is pretty hard without much tooth, so I can really press hard to get the darks. I tried softer paper just a few days ago, and it was a very different experience. I'm so used to the paper in my Moleskin sketchbook that I've been using for years.
Short and sweet. Thanks for sharing.
Nice setup and nice work too.
Thanks for posting.

How did I miss that you started to post videos?! Congrats on the UA-cam channel! Looking forward to more!
Because I haven't told anyone!! Yet. Don't wait up, won't be posting too regularly I don't think. But thanks for looking!
I understand, it seems like quite the undertaking. I will, however, appreciate anything you can share!
UH-mazing! Thank you for sharing. Do you have a favorite pencil/charcoal that you prefer to sketch with?
What is your view finder made of?
So where are all the photographs that you copy from? Are you claiming to work from those little sketches?
After years of experience working outside, I can say memory ways heavy, in the process becoming highly developed at "imaging in" !!!

How do you get dark values in your sketchbook? 6B graphite?
