DRAWING FOR BEGINNERS Part 2: Essential Drawing Supplies

[@RTIFEX]

What's your favorite drawing supply? You all *know* mine is the uni-ball Signo white gel pen. 🧡💛💙

[@luke3017]

I want to get one of those and may for Christmas but I really love mechanical pencils

[@RTIFEX]

​@@luke3017 Oh yeah, mechanicals are so nice for their convenience, and I actually recommend using those on the go. Do you have a favorite you're after? I plan to get a Uni Kurutoga Pipe Slide soon. I also wanna get a clutch pencil.

[@hazel7878]

I really like a good sketchbook I use the mix media one just like the one in this video. I planing to maybe but the needed eraser and maybe the pencils too. 😁

[@luke3017]

@@RTIFEX I usually buy quite a cheap but fairly good quality brand called tian hao for my mechanical pencils, I like the weight distribution a lot

[@RTIFEX]

@@hazel7878 Good choices! I've gone through so many of those sketchbooks.

[@hiddenwings91]

Thanks, I'm a digital artist wanting to explore traditional. I've never had a sketchbook, so I hope I can get into the flow.😌

[@CoffeecupCV]

THANK YOU. Exactly what i was looking for. I recently got a 50 pc sketch kit and had no idea what some of the tools were. Especially the pencil extender. Lol i tried to put everything in that....the charcoal, the stumps, etc. So funny. I subbed now. So excited to learn some techniques here. I have done some drawing, but got lucky i think with the outcomes. Time to learn for real👍🙆🏻‍♀️

[@RTIFEX]

LOL, nice! Welcome to the channel Coffee Cup. I'll do my best to keep things informative and interesting.

[@bostonblackie9503]

Did the same thing. Although when I bought my kit it was a lot cheaper than now.

[@caroldonaldson9127]

My family started gifting me with art kits and supplies as my new favorite Hobbie has become somewhat of a healthy addiction! I was so excited to find out what all those things were actually for 🤭 For a completely green..a total laymen when it comes to art supplies, your vids. are very helpful. I'm 50 years old and felt embarrassed about asking anyone how to use many of the tools my family members spent time and $ providing me with. I'm very blessed with one amazing family. The support has given me even more love for the craft and in return I gift them with sketches and paintings that they absolutely love.

[@frowny-x1h]

Thanks for teaching how to use the pencil extender :)

[@mrs.tremond3313]

Huge thanks my guy. Recently bought a kit and had no idea what I was looking at. Luckily you explained every tool lol

[@RTIFEX]

🤣 We've all been there. Glad I could help!

[@robbaldwin2402]

Just about to embark on illustration and sketching as a new hobby, and this was really helpful, thanks! I took art as a GCSE here in England, but even on that course they didn't suggest something as simple as a brush for disposing of detritus.

[@Bishtene]

Absolutely best video out there!!! I was scrolling through hoping for someone explain fast, sharp and clear what the heck all those parts in the pencil set are. And here we go!!!! Thanks .

[@RTIFEX]

Thanks! I'm happy you found me.

[@Chibiusa-P]

Thank you so much!! You did a really great job explaining all of this

[@ROtake]

thx alot now i realy know what art suplys to get next time i go shoping one question... do the blending stumps run out quickly!?

[@RTIFEX]

You're very welcome. Blending stumps last me *very* long, actually. I've used the same one for half a year now, even with minimal cleaning. I like to keep one of the sides "dirty" to use as another marking tool for lighter lines on clean paper.

[@ROtake]

Thanks!

[@RTIFEX]

@@ROtake Anytime!

[@BiggestTurtwigFan]

THANK YOU this is a great video im thinking about a side hustle of drawing anything ppl want me to for money couse im still studying and that money will help me im planning to buy a whole drawing set for this and after checking everything you recomended was there and some other stuff to so this has been a very helpful video and i will watch the rest of the series to improve my drawing to

[@bostonblackie9503]

Most things needed come in a kit, plus you get a nice binder to keep it all in.

[@IRmetal9456]

Question for you iam looking to get into drawing in my 50's and want to draw like mountains, trees, lakes, and nature stuff. So are these good starting tools?

[@RTIFEX]

Yes, these supplies work great for landscapes and nature drawings. I might also add a 2mm clutch pencil to your supplies too, since they're more convenient on the go: you don't have to sharpen them, and they'll help you get broader lines more easily due to the thick lead. Try Staedtler's 2mm clutch: amzn.to/3uZrNFK (I believe leads are sold separately but come in a variety grades and colors: amzn.to/3BOkkx3 and amzn.to/3V8Sa6O).

[@IRmetal9456]

Thank you. I figure this will be a good hobby and I love the outdoors and nature. Loved being in the woods.

[@meowkoobi]

Perfect video ... Exactly what I was looking for ❤

[@RTIFEX]

Love to hear that

[@quinto]

Fantastic info. Kneaded eraser is my favorite

[@akosimachu8164]

I just found out how to use the kneaded eraser with this ;-;

You're very welcome.

Really cool video probably my favourite

[@RTIFEX]

Thank you!

[@StargazeAudio]

Hi! Any ideas on how to organize all these new tools, what does your set up look like? What would you change? Thanks!

[@chrisnipper6509]

Very well given missing info for me. See, do to a brain injury some time in my past I get STM problems. So things I leave too much time apart from doing ince again I'll forget some crucial basics. I love artistic work from time to time no matter what tho. So, do you provide more 'higher up' info in painting as well?

[@RTIFEX]

I'm sorry to hear about your injury but glad this was helpful. I haven't painted in a while, but I'd love to get back into it. Maybe I'll add some videos on this topic in the future.

[@bostonblackie9503]

Kneaded erasers are "putty erasers" in the UK.

[@ArtByCameronJacobs]

Isn't putty like the clay we use on windows?

[@jackieheaney5776]

Thank you for the tutorial it was really helpful

[@blame7121]

Great video, it was very informative.

Very nice >>>>>> Thank you .

[@wrenmaelle9344]

Thank you so much...💜

[@RTIFEX]

You're welcome!

[@Junebug00000]

Thanks for a great video, but in my experience, the uniballs flow is unpredictable, and fires quickly , so I use a white Posca pen instead.

[@RTIFEX]

My pleasure. I've noticed some uniball pens have given me the same problem, but it's been rare. Poscas definitely have a more consistent flow, but I love the opaqueness of a good uniball when it's working properly. 😊

[@Yae_Miko69]

❤❤❤❤you deserve millions of subs and likes.

[@Nomalizzy]

Thank you very much for this, please can you just list all the items out for easy identification? I'm a beginner and I want to note them down.

AH YES THE GENERAL GROCEEY LIST FOR A ARTIST :D •Drawing stuff Anyways tysm this also helped because I’m also trying to draw on paper instead of digital and I’m trying to shade❤️❤️💖💞😊 Hope you get to 2k but for a amazing artist like you, you need way more like 18MIL subbies :D Can’t wait for your next video uwu

[@RTIFEX]

Oh, cool. I love the feel of drawing on paper. I even use it to start digital illustration projects sometimes, where I'll scan it in after sketching and finish it digitally. Oh, and thank you, as always! 😊

[@domingoemerenciana-he5hu]

Can you suggest me what mechanical pencil is the best when your making some sketch,mostly anime drawing.

[@ibbzyunusa6479]

Hey,RTIFEX where can i get those sketchbooks and drawing pads online in the uk

[@RTIFEX]

Hey Ibbz. My go-to is Amazon for affordable online supplies, and Ebay can be a good source too. But, I'm not in the UK, and suppliers could be different for you. With that said, I recommend checking out the following list to find some good-quality sketchbooks (I've seen Canson sketchbooks on artdiscount.co.uk/, which is a personal favorite of mine and is in the list of sites): makingamark.blogspot.com/2020/03/a-list-of-uk-based-online-art-suppliers.html

[@thomashanson9173]

Any wide brushes on Amazon you can link to? I'd rather buy just one if possible.

[@RTIFEX]

Sure, shoot for a 3" brush of just about any bristle type. This one isn't quite as cheap as the one I picked up at the art store, but it's very similar: amzn.to/31RZyxV

@@RTIFEX I think it will happen very soon (also have a grate new year🥳)

[@greekveteran2715]

I don't agree.KUM sharpeners like Automatic long point and Masterpiece,are both essential for drawing.Tombow Mono Plastic and Tombow Mono Zero 2.3mm,along with LYRA kneadable eraser,are essential too. Conte a Paris,makes the best paperstamps. Pentel Graphgear 500 (0.5mm and 0.3mm) along with Faber Castell TK 9400 or TK 4600 are the best pencils. For classic sketching,Kohinoor makes the best lead holders and the best Red Chalk! Please,feel free to ask me for other drawing materials.
