      It only broke because she used it wrong. Basically you only need to extend it a tiny bit at a time. The double spring inside the body absorbs the pressure and protects the lead. Also the shaft extends to cover the protruding lead.

      @benjones1458 5 лет назад +9

      @@carlachance3470 maybe not with an ordinary mechanical pencil but this one relies on the fact that you don't have to extend the lead much. She clicked it too many times for it to protect the lead. Therefore ,carla chance, by definition she was in fact using it incorrectly as she was prohibiting it from doing its job by extending it far beyond what it says you should. At least try to have a competent argument.

      Ben Jones a mechanical pencil should be able to extend to whatever length you want it to. If Rin wanted it longer, it should be able to go more than one click without breaking. Besides, i think your over reacting a bit, Rin said it as a joke, people were just having a little fun.

      @@bumbleb7075 I agree that I might have over reacted buy if you were to look on the packaging of the mechanical pencil or what Zebra say about it, it specifically says " lead may break when retracting more than three times from initial use" or "Using softer lead e.g. 3B 4B or coloured lead" I. E. Bridget if she clicks the top more than three times then if it breaks she shouldn't be surprised as it clearly states that it can't protect lead any further than that. And anyway why would you want to extend the lead that much??? Lead itself is fragile and liable to breakage.

    @QueenDianaWifeOfLlry 5 лет назад +65

    The issues you were struggling with were because you were using an incredibly smooth surface with a art supply that requires somethign with a LOT more grip
    The reason why the pastel doesn't want to draw probably has to do with how they're prepared along with the incorrect paper you're using it with. The soft pastels need something to hold onto and get into other wise it'll just fall flat.

  • @lynnielew6165
    @lynnielew6165 5 лет назад +19

    Key to pastels, from what I remember from working with pastels back in the day:
    1. Heavily textured paper, such as velour, rough watercolour paper, or specifically made pastel paper.
    2. Mount the paper with masking tape to a board mounted in an easel, and set the easel to a forward position so excess powder drops to the floor (theres a reason it's called pastel "painting").
    3. Work large, 8x10 is really too small for this medium.
    4. Start layering using a very soft touch.
    Hope that helps!

  • @k1tties12
    @k1tties12 5 лет назад +130

    Hey Waffles! As someone who has had a lot of experience with both pastels as well as charcoals - they’re super similar. Occasionally within your pastels/charcoal piece you’re going to fun into a point of it that just won’t take to your paper in any capacity. You can push through and pop it off or cut it off in some way and get back to your regularly scheduled art. So as a warning (I’m writing this about half way through the video) you’re going to need to seal the art with a spray otherwise it’s going to be just as messy for forever as when you made it. All in all, it’s a really valiant first attempt at pastels! I agree, they are frustrating but you’ve done really well! (Oh and the pen would work best on the pastels after the picture has been sealed properly!)

      Idk about everyone else, but I find pastels kind of annoying to use unless I'm doing pictures involving just large areas of the same color, using the other colors for shading/lighting purposes. My favorite things to do are sunsets and smooth fruits (like apples, bananas, pears, etc) on cardstock or construction paper. I only got to use the paper made for pastels, for 10 pictures (because I got a pad of 10 pieces of the paper as a gift) and quite frankly, I found that any highly textured paper works fine. Don't try doing it on copy/printer paper or notebook paper; I already tried and it doesn't work at all. lol

She exploded and proceeded to take them home with her. Now I want to try them out, but I can't cuz they're hers now

    Some tips for you and anyone getting into pastels: you can use a lot of things for blending like paper towels, blending stumps and even brushes. If your pastels are on the cheaper side and you don't mind losing some of the material you can also try sharpening them slightly on sandpaper to achieve more precise lines. You can also buy pastels in pencil form so that they can be sharpened and held more comfortably without the wrist cramps and mess. Also if you use slightly textured paper the pigments will fade less with blending.
    (I'm in no way an expert on pastels but I do like using them)

    @elliseromine424 5 лет назад +37

    The lead isn’t unbreakable because no lead is ever going to be unbreakable. The “unbreakable lead” is actually referring to the spring system that is in the pencil to avoid breakage. Of course this means you can’t put the lead too far out of the lead sleeve because that create tension points on the lead that will cause it to break regardless of the pencil. There are some really great videos by jet pens that explain it how the mechanism works, and they’re pretty cool but I personally find them better for writing than drawing, but that’s just my preference of course. I love your videos by the way! I just love your style and how it reflects differently with both your more realistic and cartoony styles, but it’s still clearly your work. It’s unique and interesting, and I’m always excited when your new videos come out.

    That artwork is great!! A few tips about the pastels (maybe, I’m still learning them myself!) If you have trouble putting them on the paper, you can try shaving a layer of them off with an x-acto knife or running it across scrap paper (I’ve noticed some have like a film on them, I do use a fairly cheap pack though. I’ve also noticed the problem occurs more really pigmented warm colors, not sure why though) Also, for blending especially is small areas, you can use eyeshadow applicators (Dollar Tree sells packs of 20) Also, I like to keep a rag nearby to wipe my hands off between colors (or wear old clothing & use them) Hope those help!!

    • @SpeedDemonStar
      @SpeedDemonStar 5 лет назад +3

      Blending stumps is what you're actually supposed to use for the small areas (you can get a bunch for cheap if you buy them in bulk of varied sizes). Also, for cleaning your hands (and some materials), I found that a combination of a dry old rag (like you said) then textured baby wipes (Huggies brand seem to work best for some reason) got rid of not just mess itself, but any staining of the skin too.

    • @SpeedDemonStar
      @SpeedDemonStar 5 лет назад +4

      Also, for getting the pastels to work when they have that film, fine-grit sandpaper wastes less than x-acto knife and works more effectively than just scrap paper.

    Pastels aren’t everybody’s favorite and they haven’t been mine either until I just suddenly got the urge to learn about them and now I love them! lol Every type of media has its learning curve. I personally use pastel pencils, pan pastel with art sponges to apply, and soft pastel sticks. It doesn’t have to be messy. The type of art you want to do plays a huge role in choosing the right supplies for pastels. For example, I do detailed, realistic work and I almost threw in the towel until I discovered pastelmat which has a rough sanded texture and gives you that flawless coverage unlike regular canson pastel paper that doesn’t take layers at all. It is not a try the cheap pastels and paper kinda medium to see if you like it but if you are really curious get a sheet of the high quality pastelmat, a couple pastel pencils and high quality soft pastel and watch allot of pastel artists tutorials. Just wanted to throw that out there for those who are interested but unsure about pastels 😊

    That first and more realistic picture was so beautiful! I absolutely loved to watch you blend and layer the colors.

    You are such a huge inspiration! Could you do a beginners guide to drawing or something? I love your videos, i love your humor and stuff.

    Next time, I would recommend using tissues or those blender paper stick things as the oils from your finger can mess it up :3
    Edit: also, when you use your fingers, it makes it much more likely for accidental finger prints, which are extremely hard to hide and dont erase well ;-;

    When we use pastels in art at school, we use knifes to scrape off pigment and then use paint brushes to draw with it. Your art is incredible as always!! 💙
