This is awesome Ginxy!!!

thanx a lot i have a question for you: what do you use to blend on bristol? it´so smooth, the blending is really difficult. i tried cotton pads, sponges, eyeshadow applicators...one applicator worked but it got destroyed soon

Sounds like you tried everything but a tampon!?!? I use torchillons and tortillians. Check out details in my TIPS GUIDE here: rick-kills-pencils.deviantart.com/gallery/#TIP-GUIDES

BLENDING: I am convinced now that it’s ALL IN THE BLENDING!!! I use Blending Stumps, Tortillions, Torchillons, Paper towels, and sometimes Q-tips and make-up sponges. Many of the techniques would require me showing you, rather than describing them, but I will try a few. For one, I am always mindful of how much graphite is already on the stump, which determines how much pressure I apply when blending? I have many different sizes for both tight spots and large areas. Again, layering is the key. When a Blending Stump gets too much graphite on it, it tends to get slick and shiny, and stops blending. To extend it’s life, I will scrape off the excess graphite by turning it while scraping it on sandpaper until the fibers are useful again. Whether I am Shading or Blending (Rendering) I most Always blend in the SAME direction that the skin is going, in order to build the illusion of dimension and shapes. I also turn the stump as I blend, if more graphite is needed, it is usually on the other si

thanx a bunch for this detailed answer seems like i have to buy some blending stumps the one applicator that worked for me was not made of sponge, but something more synthetic and the result was really smooth and no lines were showing. anyway, i can´t find this material anywhere because i can´t even name it. thanx again for your patience

here is the exact brand I use from their website. The ones on the bottom - soft paper felt blending stumps. The 8943B stumps. www.loew-cornell.com/products/flashpaper/12/index.html they are double sided and I get the medium sized kind. You may also find them and order them online here: www.dickblick.com/products/gray-paper-stumps/

thanx a LOT! i´ll try at the place i usually buy my stuff, but if i don´t find it, i may order them

so far it looks great!! I like the graphix=c style. No need to blend it more vthan that!!! You can use Chamois leather, it give a veru smooth render excelent for skin, Lightweight felt is some how more textured but works great for fabrics... Keep up the good stuff

thanx for everything so i might try some of that stuff

wow , that's so great ! amazing how beautiful , you are very talented

thanx, you are always so kind
