Funny how little accidents turn out.I love the effect they give in the paintings you showed.The moody sky in the Lighthouse painting and the chair in the kitten. However although they may not yet when using water ,I think I would still be tempted to seal them afterwards when they are dry for storage to keep them pristine.I too never liked charcoal at all,I had a lot of bad memories of learning how to use it at school,even using it as a pencil to create a picture.So messy and it got everywhere.Before posh pencils I might add too lol!.But this looks fun and worth a try 🥰

Yes I imagine, with water added it just changes everything, a month ago I didn't even suspect charcoal was water-soluble

Well, your brilliant way of selling a product, talked me into purchasing the Derwent XL Charcoal Blocks and I love them. So, now I'm ordering these. I tried to place a piece of art as my thumbnail profile pic, but google is being weird. Thank you so much.

Love it. Breaking boundaries, exploring new territory. I just received my watercolor graphite set last week and have to restrain myself from buying more goodies until I am more consistently using what I have. But so much fun to see the possibilities.

I remember getting them when I started making art 3 years ago. I was amazed at how good I felt when I used them even though my drawings were not so good as I just did what came into my mind🙂 And a bit later I did a couple of tutorials with them and oh my, they're so amazing!❤

Tengo el set de Graphitint que sí es water soluble (aparece 🖌️ impreso en el lápiz, pero no en los Tinted Charcoal), produce lindos colores. No quise comprar el set de Tinted Charcoal porque los tonos son muy similares y apagados, no sabía que se pudieran usar con agua, me sorprende 😮. Tu dibujo es hermoso 😻

Conozco estos lápices, por lo que puedo apreciar la dificultad que tiene obtener con ellos unos dibujos tan magníficos. Yo suelo usarlos sin agua, como carboncillo tradicional. Aunque algunos tonos parecen iguales, cuando se combinan se aprecia la diferencia de matices, lo que aporta al dibujo una mayor viveza y profundidad. Lo único que me disgusta de ellos es la fragilidad de la mina. Estoy acostumbrada a afilar con un cúter mis lápices de carboncillo de otras marcas y no se rompen como estos. Algunos son más frágiles que otros, supongo que es por el tipo de pigmento que entra en su composición. Al igual que tú aplicas a estos lápices la técnica de los lápices acuarelables, en otros vídeos he visto utilizarlos como si fueran lápices pastel. Al tratarse de artistas profesionales que usáis vuestra técnica favorita, los resultados son extraordinarios. Sin embargo, yo soy una simple aficionada, me gusta utilizar todo tipo de materiales (sin dominar bien ninguno😅) y me resulta más fácil emplear cada medio con su técnica específica.
