FAQs

I use Caran D'ache Luminacne colour pencils, but you do not need to use the same brand or exact colours as me. You can use whatever pencils you already have and just choose the closest colour you have to what I am using. I have provided a colour chart with some alternative colours for Prismacolors, Polychromos and Derwent Lightfast.

In this study, I have used a Tombow Mono Eraser and a Slice Cutter. If you do not have these I would suggest some sort of small eraser. I also use some blu-tac or putty rubber.
As for paper, I used Hahnemühle Nostalgie paper. You do not have to use this paper, but I would recommend using a fairly smoothish textured white paper that can take some layers without being really rough.

Whilst you will always have access to the videos, you will not be able to download them. This is simply due to the huge file sizes which makes it unachievable.
