Adding Derwent charcoal pencils and watersoluble sketching pencils. I use these pencils alot when adding shadows.
Derwent watersoluble sketching pencils
These pencils have are great both to wet and dry sketching. Water make them ideal for washes. You get three pencils in the wash strengths HB light wash, 4B medium wash and 8B dark wash.
Derwent charcoal pencils
I prefer home made charcoal sticks but these are great when you are bringing then with you, no mess in your bag. The pencils gives you good control they apply evenly. Natural charcoal particles are mixed with clays to produce a rich, smoothly textured pencil with all the character of traditional charcoal. You get two charcoal pencils in medium and dark grades.
