BlackWing Pencils

 I bought some new pencils for my degree project! I always read about how great blackwing pencils are and I always think about how I want to get them someday but I never do. The other day I realized I should buy some for my degree project as a special treat.
Heres a post about them from the Blackwing Diaries.
 I always have trouble drawing too lightly and I barely pressed down on the pencil and got a really good line. Its true they are half the pressure and really smooth. Worth it.
 I'm trying to get better at drawing hands and I found a great post by Toby Shelton. Check it out.
