Graphite Drawing Supplies & Materials, What's in My Pencil Case

[@bradfordyorks5055]

Time to go shopping for more stuff I didn't realise I needed!

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Lol, Happy shopping! :)

[@debbiebruce6920]

Would be interested to know how or if your favorite drawing supplies have changed within the last 4 years. An update on your graphite supplies would be nice.

[@khuyenlam3550]

You have the most relaxing voice lol.

Lol, thanks Max :)

Reminds me of a British Bob Ross

[@giornogiovanna2946]

Khuyen Lam What about David Attenborough for National Geographic??? No offence to you smoothie!

[@Casserpillar]

Just came across this video while looking for something to hold my pens, markers, and other journalling supplies. This is such a genius idea!

[@monday4123]

your pencil case is so neat and clean.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Thanks, I can promise you it doesn't always look this clean and neat lol

[@raquelsanchez9668]

I have the Koh I Noor pencil erase and it is fantastic!

[@amberoons]

I already have a couple of pencil cases that work pretty good and i store most of my drawing stuff in them (pens in one pencils in the other) but this looked great esp how you had it laid out and chock full of all the main stuff so i found it on Amazon for a pretty good price (under 20 bucks + tax CAD seemed reasonable) and i just chucked in a bunch of the stuff i use most frequently while rewatching your video... i love it. Its so much less cumbersome than my bigger case since right now i have to tow my at stuff around the house with me (oh no poor me). It fits in my little mitt no problem. Great recommendation. I doubted i could find the product 6 years later!

[@TheArtGearGuide]

Awesome little case there Jon mate, fantastic little idea and it holds quite a lot of supplies but is also so compact.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Thanks Harry, its just the job, the company should market them as pencil cases too, and not just cable organizer's, it works well for a watercolour travel case as well.

[@alexandrusabo1294]

hello. you are inspired me to use one of this kind of pencil case. right now it is very cool to have the same tools at the office and home. I did not find in my country the same brand, but I was able to buy a same layout with the UGREEN brand. my supplies are focused on sketching and concept inking. cheers All the best. Alex

[@ggenuine]

Lovely video, I really appreciate you leaving links to the products mentioned!

[@quantum5091]

Hi smoothie would it be possible to do a updated video if there’s been any changes

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

That's a great idea, will do...

[@dabouras]

[@LinekeLijn]

This BUBM is quite a smart idea for my upcoming vacation!! Hahahaha ^.^ and thanks for mentioning my Koh I Noor, so glad you like it. You have one beautiful collection Smoothie and thank you for sharing this with us. All the love - Lineke ;)

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

It would be ideal for you Vacation Lineke! I hope you have a great time and the weather is good, i'm sure you will find some nice scenes to sketch in the south of England, its a nice area :)

[@LinekeLijn]

Thank you Smoothie and I am sure I will.... Looking so much forward to it and leaving for England on the 28th ^.^ I will let you know ;)

[@raychiesart]

I just wanted to share that I only found your channel last month and you made me convince to buy a pencil case with this brand and size because I was very much worried about where to store my mechanical pencil

[@metoowahl]

thanks smoothie. it's ideal for carrying only what you need. if I had one of them, I would rent a shipping container and stor the rest of what I have. lol

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Lol, Thanks Matthew!

[@izakpolman6280]

Thanks for sharing. I'd really like to see your sketching of your hometown LIVE! I think we are all curious how you sketch, arrange a scene etc etc. I do think you should give it a try.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Thanks Izak, I don't know about going live, but a few sketching videos is a great idea.

[@Sallysaurus]

I also have the old Derwent pencils with the orange band on them because my grandpa gave me his old ones he used in college while getting his master's in art, he only seemed to use the lightest and darkest pencils in the set as the rest seemed unused but came in a very old school looking tin

[@bankai5153]

You have the magic voice 🌸

[@anjalianand6253]

Very cute and useful folder. And a very nice video. Thanks.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Thank you so much 😊

[@victoriak5945]

Is it possible if you can do a updated "Graphite Drawing Supplies" if you made any changes to your supplies?

[@TheWindGinProject]

Hi Smoothie, Several months back I mentioned that for some reason the volume was a little too low for my system and I thought I should let you know that the volume was perfect in this video. I only mention this just in case you had been experimenting with the volume. Otherwise it is just my speaker system. Thanks for continuing to upload to KZbin and I wish you the very best with your Pateron site.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Hi, yes I remember, I'm now recording with a new set up at the moment, I too can here a difference in sound quality, not happy with picture quality though, so things might be changing again in the very near future, hopefully the volume will stay the same, thanks for the comment!

[@GenWivern2]

Thoroughly interesting and enjoyable, thank you Smoothie. Not sure those Derwent Graphics qualify as that old ... I'm still working my way through the stash of Eagle Turquoise. :-)

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

I remember the Eagle Turquoise, they are old! I bet they're nice to use though:)

[@julieduncan4075]

Fascinating! Thanks! 🙂

[@eddiedavenport2667]

I am happy to say that I have followed your lead and have purchased this case and several of the erasers and drawing supplies. I drawing skills have improved. I use the grid method a lot. I was wondering if you would paint a simple drawing with a few trees with fall colors and watercolor washes. I have looked at many videos and I haven't found anyone that has combined the detail that you use and fall colors. I have hesitated to ask but you seen to be the only one that is in the vicinity of what I see in my mind. I looked through all your videos and have not found one with fall colors. I may be missing something. I thank you in advance for your input. Eddie.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Thanks for the comment Eddie, I haven't got anything planned for fall trees, may get around to doing something like that soon. I'm surprised I haven't done fall trees yet, thanks for the suggestion.

[@theboos5852]

Thank you Smoothie, Very Cool!

[@vani519]

Hi! Have you ever heard of the Faber Castell eraser Pencils? They have mono ones for white eraser (that is the hard one) and for the light pink one (that is the soft eraser) and they have a combined one with two tips. They are called perfection 7057(for the combined one). Nice video!

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Yes, I have a couple of them, very nice erasers that work well

[@amysamin]

Another wonderful video - I've finally realized why I'm not happy with the pencil cases I have. I need something with elastic straps like your case. I will be looking for that. Thanks as always.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

You're welcome Amy, i hope you manage to get one, they're very good.

[@amysamin]

smoothie77 Thank you! You know, I just looked for the Koh I Noor eraser pencil on Amazon (US) and they were selling them for $52.77!! I don't think that can be right - not even if it was for a box of 12, or even 24! And I don't think it was for a box. Crazy!

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

That's got to be wrong! maybe the 5 is a typo ?

[@amysamin]

smoothie77 I would think so... but the number is repeated several times in different places on the page. Oh well, I can wait until I have an opportunity to look around in the stores.

[@bringitlite8065]

Yes, I think the new Staedtler Mars Lumograph 100 8B is full graphite. I can't get matte finish from it anymore, had to use the black version one.

[@bigboyanimation3799]

you have two 0.5 refilles for the mechanical pencil the first is 4b and the second is 2b i want to know whats the difference between these two, i have the brand moLin HB 0.5 not 4b or 2b whats the difference?

[@larryglatt2548]

Thanks for this. I have been hoping to find something better than what I got last month. This case may be that item.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Thanks for the comment Larry, the pencil case is superb i'm sure you will like it if you get one.

[@larryglatt2548]

Well, I did just get one & I am very happy with it, thanks again.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

That's good to hear Larry:)

[@oldtimer9011]

Nice little review there Smoothie, We do tend to collect a few pencils over the years. But why not..lol

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Why not indeed lol, I'm embarrassed to say that this is just the tip of the iceberg, I have an embarrassingly large amount of pencils and drawing equipment stashed in my cupboard :)

[@vodkasugarplanet]

I came to see your review of the bubm e-case as a pencil case and you gave me the best tip for my kneaded eraser! Thanks!

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

You're welcome, thanks for commenting :)

[@hannahskoonberg]

I am always confused when folk carry around a lot of replacement lead. Like how much lead do you go through? It takes me months to get through a single lead. I guess I use a lot of wood pencils though.

[@lvbailey1]

Love this one. Very helpful!. Miss you...👩🏻‍💻

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Bless you and thank you! I've got another video uploading in the next few days ☺

[@rooneye]

You know a good company when they don't fuck you around when THEY make a mistake. "Keep that free of charge and we'll send you another one." Good customer service. Recently had a great experience with BOSE their customer service is the BEST I've ever known. I used to work in customer service myself so I know how crucial it is and how people REALLY appreciate good customer service. It goes a LONG way into making me buy products from a company.

[@YelidaHierroArt]

I think this might be perfect for me, I'll def. check it out.

[@thuntz29]

I was thinking of getting that 0.2mm but my .3 is already so fine! Jeje can’t imagine it being finer.

[@ethanteo3748]

Have you tried the newest derwent graphic? They updated it at the end of last year, and these new ones are by far superior to any of the old ones. They come very very close to my favourite pencils, the Faber Castell-9000 (have you tried those too?) If you have let me know your opinion on them

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

I heard the new Derwent's are good, haven't tried them yet, I have a set of Faber castell 9000, I like them a lot, super pencils,

[@ethanteo3748]

Yes they are absolutely wonderful! You ought to get yourself the new graphics also. Where i live they are sold at half the price of the Castell 9000s, so pricing is not an issue

[@geertjanjanssen5983]

Wonderful it’s very useful

[@AlanOwen]

Hi john, it looks good ,great stuff,,

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Thanks Alan, I'm pleased you like it.

[@gorway7]

Funny, you're the first person to mention the gritty Ticonderogas. I bought a gross of them online a year ago because our American cousins seem to think they were good and I was fed up with the crappy eco friendly pencils we seem to get over here, made of rock hard wood near impossible your sharpen ...but they were practically unusable - lovely easy to sharpen cedar but the graphite was full of sand like particles that would actually scratch the paper until you managed to dislodge it. Never seen anything like it. Had a look online to see if anyone else noticed problems with them but found nothing. I suspect it was probable a bad batch that they were flooding ebay with, to get rid of.

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

I thought the same... maybe a bad batch, I bought another box from a different batch, but no, still very scratchy, if they could sort that out they would have an excellent product at a great price. i have heard the vintage ones are superb.

[@gorway7]

smoothie77 Still got 143 left ...thinking of making a sculpture out of them - can't really use them for much else.

[@dabouras]

Probably shifted manufacture to a cheaper location, like a subcontracted Chinese factory that then cut costs.

[@jammydodger3418]

You have the best asmr voice 😂

[@michaelbaker5070]

Does Derwin make mechanical pencils?

[@Mallchad]

Hey, I recently got into drawing again, it's been a while since I've really tried seriously and I'm kind of enjoying it this time. As per your recommendations I tried a mechanical pencil - I always hated them, the feeling of the body was off and the lead was prone to breaking. But I tried the Staedtler 0.5mm Mechanical Pencil Silver Series (925 25-05) and I'm really liking it, although I still love my wooden pencils. I have found it hard to get really deep blacks when finishing off a drawing with typical lead (2D or HB), and the 6B-8B pencils lose their point really quickly which makes it difficult to get hard thin lines. I couldn't find anything much higher than a 4B in terms of mechanical pencil leads and was wondering if you had any recommendations, tips, or input in general? I've always been adverse to charcoal (I've never enjoyed much other art mediums other than a plain ol' graphite and digital art), but maybe I'll try to be a bit more open minded, since I previously was against mechanical pencils.

what are those tins that you hold your graphite sticks in?

[@matthewwahl4737]

Hi smoothie. I've seen all your drawings and i like your style. I rate you as one of my top ten drawings teachers. I seen this video before and two days ago i decided to get one. I thought is was smoothies pencil case and wasn't sure so i went back to this video to find the name of it. Honestly you could pattern something on the same idea as this case to make it just for pencils and other art supplies. And you can give it your name brand like smoothies pencil case Just saying.

KOH-I-NOOR pencil erasers I bought 12 of them and had them for 3 months so I do not know if you can still buy them online. Jim

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

Thanks Jim, there's a few about at the moment but that could change, sometimes they are just hard to find.

[@jamesmenhams1711]

You can still buy them on Amazon UK but on Ebay UK they are 5 for £11.95. I love your graphite drawings on u-tube and helped me out better on my graphite drawings if you do not mind I tried to copy your style of watercolour painting mine was alright I am more of a graphite,acrylic and pastel artist.

[@Kyomiibrown]

Is The koh-i-noor better than both Tombow's?

[@smoothie77drawingpainting]

I think the Koh I noor is more efficient at erasing, but the Tombow is finer and a more consistent line width, there's not much in it really, both are very similar,

[@Kyomiibrown]
