Derwent 9B-H Graphic Sketch Lead Pencil (12pk)

Derwent Graphic is a range of high quality graphite pencils available in 20 versatile degrees from 9B to 9H. This tin of soft pencils (9B - H) is best suited to expressive sketches and portraiture, medium pencils (6B - 4H) suit design and general drawing and hard pencils (B - 9H) are ideal for detailed illustrations. • To even out the texture of a soft pencil (e.g. 4B), shade over with a slightly harder pencil (HB). • To add interest to dark areas, you can add shapes into your drawing with a hard pencil (e.g. 2H), then go over lightly with a softer lead (e.g. 6B) - the harder pencil will show through. • Use a paper stump to soften edges and smooth out shading. • Don't throw away stubs of paper stumps as these can be used for soft, fine shading. • To lift highlights or neaten edges use an eraser shield and battery eraser. • Use a Derwent eraser pencil and brush to gently brush debris off your paper/drawing. • Use small circular strokes to create texture in your shading.
