Supplies for Landscape Series

Here is a video that will give a description of everything that I will be using in the landscape series.

Some of the supplies I will be using are graphite pencils ranging from 4h all the way to 9b. Charcoal as well as charcoal pencils. These are very easily blended into the drawings and make very good tools to use. The charcoal ranges like pencils do. They range from hard to med to soft to ex soft. Hard being a lighter tone and harder to blend while ex soft is very soft and blends easily. I also use sticks of charcoal to fill in large areas very quickly

Erasers can vary very much. There are so many brands out there and many of them work very well. The pink erasers work very well for making very sharp eraser marks as well as the kneaded eraser. This one is like puddy and can be shaped into any form you wish. Other erasers range from cheap little white ones that are cheap. I also use a triangular eraser that works out very well. There are also gum erasers that leave a mess while erasing but pick things off the page very well. My favorite eraser is the retractable one. This is like a mechanical pencil but instead of lead being inside of it, its a very long piece of eraser. These are very good for making very precise erasing on the page. Very compact and great for on the go.

Blending materials My favorite object to use is a blending cloth. They are very soft and work very well. They are rather cheap and can also be substituted for paper towels and other types of cloth that are soft. The blending stumps come in 2 kinds. Tortillions which are very cheap and come in very long sharp points. These last a very long time and can be used very effectively in the drawing. They are hollow in the center so the points do sometimes get pushed in. The other type is a blending stump. These are fully compressed paper shaped into points at the ends. These work best. They are not hollow and I have used some of mine for over a year. They come in thicknesses of about an 8th of an inch all the way up to almost an inch in diameter.

You an also get a very conformable mechanical pencil with a rubber grip. They are more comfortable to use than regular pencils because you can grip them much easier. You can also get different fillings for it. You can get pencil grades from 9h all the way to 9b.

was the 'blending cloth' just a regular cloth, like one you use to clean your glasses or was it special?

@fazialpalmierung I see a lot of people using electric erasers. I never got around to actually getting one.
