Creating Contrast and Texture Drawing Kit
It's impossible to achieve the range of values, textures and extreme realism without the proper tools. That's why I use these same drawing tools in my live workshops.

Option:
I have also contracted with General's Pencil company to offer three other pencils that I highly recommend. The Kimberly 9xxb Graphite, the Carbon Sketch, and the Carbon Hardpencils are three drawing necessities that I simply couldn't do without. You have the option to include these 3 pencils when you order the drawing set.
Kimberly 9xxb extra soft graphite pencil:
This extremely soft graphite became a hit in 2008 at my workshops. Although it is graphite, it doesn't create the dreaded "shine" of other soft graphite. Produces extra smooth black values. The wider core is "Carbo-Welded" to withstand four times the normal point pressure and the specially treated cedar wood casings sharpen easily in the sharpener that is included with the Primo set.
Generals Carbon Sketch pencil
This pencil, along with the Carbon Hard below, is used to render the illusion of the masking tape in the "String of Memories" drawing. Combines the smoothness of graphite with the deep rich blacks of charcoal. The hardness is 4B.
Generals Carbon Hard pencil
This is a harder version the Carbon Sketch. This is very similar to the General's 2h extra hard pencil and is great for creating the clean, dark, sharp edges found in much of my work. The extra hard core hard core hold an extremely sharp point without breaking or crumbling. Without this pencil, it would be impossible to create the sharp focus realism I'm known for.
