I’ve been trying to use more carbon is my sketches and so I tried, Royal Sovereign Wolff’s Carbon (2B) for a couple of sketches. They’re quite nice to use but hard to get a scan of the finished piece that looks anything like the original π I also tried out the Derwent Artists Sketching Pencil (Midnight) for one of the sketches which was also nice to use but I found it a little waxy. Anyway, the first and the third sketch were made using the Wolff’s Carbon pencil and the middle one using a Derwent. I was working A4 but found it a little restrictive and need to use larger paper to properly try them out.
