Graphite drawing pencils have always created shine. And no one likes a shiny pencil drawing. Plus, graphite pencils are actually gray instead of black. This makes it difficult to create true blacks with graphite. However, Staedtler Mars Lumograph Black pencils produce darker blacks without the shine of graphite. This is due to a higher carbon content, making them a mix between traditional graphite pencils and carbon pencils.

Gettin' Sketchy Season 7 Review... • Live Drawing Critique ... 
Хобби
I can’t wait to see you hit 1 million subscribers! You’re such an incredible teacher. Your personality is so refreshing and comforting too! Thanks for helping all of us artists spend less time staring blankly at the canvas in existential dread. 😂😭
I've found that the Mars Lumograph black pencils are blacker than graphite, but lighter than full carbon.
The shine one gets with graphite pencils is due to the fact that graphite molecules are shaped like flat plates. Drawing with graphite, especially going over the same spot multiple times, will press them all flat on the surface, like cards laid out on a table. And, so, they will reflect light.
Interesting about the science of graphite. Thanks
I am learning the "language" by listening and watching your videos. Thank you. I am glad to know about the Staedtler pencils. I will get some.
For dark backgrounds I normally apply graphite powder 9B with cotton wool, and when enough applied add white spirit to cotton and rub over the graphite agar. It does reduce the shine considerably and also gives a much darker finish. Careful though after applying the spirt you cannot erase.
Absolutely love your drawings.
Love these pencils.
GREAT DRAWING.
I loved working alongside your Gettin’ Sketchy Lumograph Series. I am too new to drawing to dislike the feel of these pencils (ignorance is bliss). Your enthusiasm is infectious. Love being a part of your online courses/lessons. :)m
That was a wonderful demonstration. Thank you.
Love the Staedtler pencils!
That's why i believe in charcoal supremacy
Very cool Matt! I’ll give them a try. Thank you!
Great video love the look of those pencils you have made my mind up I'm going to purchase some thank you for your inspiration and the way you instruct simply the best
Woo Hoo!! Isn't that another stunning masterpiece!....Very good.
Amazing Matt!
Faber Castell has some new "matte" graphite pencils out. They still shine a bit, but not nearly as much as regular graphite
Incredible tutorial and i like that you get right to the point
wow incredible drawing thank you for sharing with us
Thank you very much, I hope to take your class as soon as I can.
I got these based on your video and love them. I've tried other carbon pencils, but like these better.
The drawing looks very awesome
I love this bird (mind you, I always love what you draw - especially animals). Thanks for sharing this experiment / review with us!
Could you do a comparison between these and the Faber Castell Matt? I have not found any comparison on RUclips. Thanks for your great videos.
Really interesting work, love it!👍！
That is absolutely fantastic , awesome bird, and so much to learn thanks :)
Excellent!!!
Fabulous, thanks very much.
I bought the small set some time ago. Curious thing is the tin says it comes with 8b 6b 2x4b and 2x2b. But it came with hb 2b 4b 6b 7b and 8b.
I like them but they have a weird waxy feeling and they don't erase well so I don't find them ideal fro drawing , but for shading they are great.
Edit: Oh I see you commented the same things I think of them haha
Wow nice tutorial sir!
I enjoy my Lumigraph pencils very much but have learned to protect my whites, kinda reminds me of doing a watercolor. I have used the HB for watercolor sketches done very lightly and I was able to lift some of the darker areas with a kneaded eraser on hp 100% cotton. Using them in drawings with blending does recreate the shine again, sometimes I use a cotton bud swab to blend also. I enjoy my charcoal tinted and Contes the most for sketches honestly but it’s all good.
Beautiful...
Your inspiring me. I really need to get back to drawing. i have more control of the fine detail than paint, im trying to draw with paint and its difficult, i need to loosen up with the painting. I'll check out you course it really interests me to learn more about correcting my self taught bad habits. Ive found animals easier to draw and paint than people.
Think you for the videos I like your technique 👍
General's 9XXB pencils are very dark w/ no shine. I love this pencil. I can't wait to try out the Staedtler for comparison.
Amazing magic ♥️
I have always used a Matt fixative for pencil drawings.
thanks I started using Stead. pencils like 6 months ago and improved my quality..actually went tru couple different brands till I found those to be the best at least for me..but sketching can be done with any other 2h and then later use steadlter,castell are good ones too..thank you for your clips and help.
Very nice drawing
I definitely tag u my stuff with these materials..Thanks for the knowledge u share with us..
Wow i will try them :)
Thank you
Super nice 👌
I love how clear your teaching is! Would you please help us understand how to choose leaf values…if darkness protrudes then why would one Paint the half of the leaf on the far side darker. And painting the veins dark makes the leaf look indented. I feel all over the place, I need a system. Are the leaves closest to the viewer darkest in value and the ones hidden behind paler in value. I am talking plants and botanical illustration, not tree leaves. Please help! Again I love all the single purchase classes I bought on your website, I wish you had one for botanical illustration! We need your concise step by step teaching abilities, also botanical composition!
I'm addicted to your videos, I'm doing a MATTRATHON 👍👍👍
I like the graphite grey tones, shine and all. But these Staedtler blacks can't be beat, and the lack of shine gives an illusion of them being even darker. I use them only for my very deepest, darkest touches.
A beautiful bird
Bought some of these. Like the depth they give but you have to be very light with them or there is still shine
Nice👍👍👍
I took delivery of the full set of Faber-Castell Pitt Graphite Matt pencils the day before your first Getting sketchy with the Staedtler black pencils. Strangely enough with the same order I got a pad of A3 Strathmore Toned Gray paper. Where the order went wrong was the white charcoal blocks rather than pencils. More to the point I would love to know how the Faber-Castells compare to the Staedtler. Like you I'm a keen advocate of the Derwent Graphic pencils and have gone through several sets and, yes, I have experienced issues with graphite shine. The Faber-Castell set comprises HB, 2B, 4B, 6B, 8B 10B, 12B, and 14B pencils along with blending stump, sharpener, and PVC-free eraser.
if none helped u Castell are amazing/much easier to erase, but I'm just used to both Steadlter and Castell, can't go wrong with Castell, 2H is amazing and can create more darker or more black to the paper..
Cool black but not charcoal- a nice hybrid.
God bless.
Faber Castell have now brought out their Matt Graphite pencils which they claim are graphite pencils with no shine. It includes the first 14B pure black graphite pencil.
Hello, I am glad to have found your video. I draw, but lack imagination of my own and to not plagiarise. Could you give me some feedback on how to develop
Extraordinario dibujo con esos lápices STAEDLER.
Una pena que no estén sus vídeos subtitulados en español.
Gracias 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Prueba a poner subtitulos automaticos y auto traducir a español, igual pone cosas mal pero en general se entiende porque Matt pronuncia bastante bien y no habla demasiado rapido.
@@loati94
Yo no le pillo ni una 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@angelruizrisueno2729 Jajaja yaa, me refería a que como no habla muy rápido y pronuncia bien, los subtitulos no cometen muchos errores! He probado a ver si se entienden y excepto algún concepto especifico si se entienden bien.
@@loati94
Lo siento, no te había entendido, como solo utilizo el teléfono no sé ponerle subtítulos. 😪
@@angelruizrisueno2729 Bueno, por si te interesa: Pausa el video, dale a la ruletita de arriba a la derecha y selecciona "subtitulos", de las tres opciones siguientes selecciona "subs automaticos" y selecciona el idioma deseado.
Can you put a matte type glass over graphite drawings, to help the shine?
Sir which type of paper surface is suitable for this pencil tell me pl. Smooth surface or medium surface
Finally got something that I can afford....
Sir, it's awesome
But there i noticed a difference. The tail of the bird is different from the reference pic. The tail has very light shade in the centre thus showing it has two feathers.
How do you sharpen your pencils like that?
Waaaaw , well done 👍 , Really its not that shiny one ☝️
The drawing looks more realistic than the photograph. 😳 Or maybe I just like it more. In either case, incredible!
Can you explain more what is white charcoal All charcoal is black, or..
Have you tried the new pencils from Faber-castell Pitt Graphite Matte? They say that these pencils are generally without shine. I haven't tried it yet
I bought them, and the black is great.
Matt, you said these pencils feel waxy like colored pencils. Do they have any wax or substance like that in them? I’m very interested in getting some of these for sure, and this bird drawing Is so cute!!!
I use the regular Limbaugh illtry with grey paper hehas on abandon houses
Why not use charcoal?
Faber-Castell came out with Pitt Matte Graphite pencils. Has anyone tried them; and because they seem to contain some carbon/charcoal, can they still be considered graphite pencils? Also, I read somewhere that Faber Castell claim their Pitt Graphite Matte Pencils are a World first; since some charcoal pencil brands are hybrid graphite/carbon/charcoal, could the Pitt Matte be only graphite?

I made a graphite pencil drawing for a special lady, and when she looked at it the light felt wrong on The drawing, that made The special moment go away real quick,a shame,so much hour's
i like charcoal and carbon pencils...I have had these black pencils sitting in my drawing corner of my studio for a while. I just don't like the feel.
use 9B :)
My own style.
Artist, blue eyes, blue shirt, blue background. Coincidence? I think not.
How do you sharpen your pencils? Several commenters have asked you this with no reply.
it's pronounced 'Shtaydler'
Faber Castell Pitt Matt graphite, are way better, As for classic graphite pencils, nothing beats the Faber Castell Aquarelle, most versatile and highest performance graphite pencil out there, that quality can't even come close, even from Staedtler. PS Derwent graphite pencils are a joke compared to Faber Castell, only some of their color pencil lines are ok, still not as great as Polychromos, Abercht Durer etc..
I'm not a fan of the Mars Lumograph pencils. First, they don't do away with shine. It isn't as blatant with these pencils, but it's still there. Second, the upper B pencils are largely wax. They're really just a colored pencil that uses graphite as the pigment. This is fine, but I really don't like the way they feel. Third, I don't agree at all that we can't get true black with graphite. The price we pay is shine, but shine only shows up when the drawing is viewed at a reflective angle. This hasn't been a problem for centuries, and complaints about it are a RUclips special.
Lastly, charcoal, carbon, and colored pencils all work better at give a deep black without shine. I've also been experimenting with a black pastel pencil, and I'm liking the way it's working. Deep black, zero shine, and easy cleanup should it be needed.
We each have our personal preferences. The Mars Lumograph pencils simply are not one of mine. I'll use the ones I have up to 6B, but not the ones above that.
Is there anything else you forgot to offer for sale during your video? That was quite a list.
How about you take a break and stop making these WRONG ADVICE videos.
You're being reported to the authorities for misleading the public.
We're NOT reinventing pencils just because you say so.
Graphite mixed with wax and preserving materials is perfectly fine, so its YOU THAT HAS THE PROBLEMS.
You stop telling the world your problems, and go tell your doctor about your graphite problems.
I think you may need some help.
TALK LESS
Very cool Matt! I’ll give them a try. Thank you!
I definitely tag u my stuff with these materials..Thanks for the knowledge u share with us..
