- Nationally renowned western and historical Native American artist Jason Tako does a Nitram Charcoal unpackaging and compares it to other brands of charcoal. The Nitram has less residue and blends more smoothly. Here are links to the items I reviewed in this video:

You might clean the abrasive paddle with a toothbrush to unclog the grit.
Some of my sticks arrived broken.
Each stick ha d a colored label attached but nowhere did it say which color corresponded with its hardness.
Green=B
Orange=HB
Blue=H
Yellow= softer than B
Petit and petite are both French words meaning small.
They are pronounced differently.
Petit is used for masculine nouns (pettee )
Petite is used for feminine nouns. ( petteet)
Le Petit Prince
La petite maison ( house, a feminine noun) )
This was so extremely useful. Thank you.
I only use the Green B for light tones and final touches, and it does that very well. For everything else, I use generic charcoal and Conte a Paris pencils. However, like you said, the difference among the values is hardly noticeable. Frankly, Nitram is very overrated, much less over-priced. The soft stick is just glorified vine charcoal with the added value of stiffness.
Thanks for your comment. I agree that the difference between Nitram and other charcoals is not very noticeable when it comes to the final results. The one thing I do like about Nitram is that it produces less dust and it tends to hug the paper a little more than other charcoals. This can come in handy, especially when you are layering. Whether this justifies the extra cost really depends on how important these aspects of Nitram are to the individual artist.
Totally agree!!!
Very helpful. Thank you
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video 👍🏽
Sure thing!
Never sharpened mines yet !!!
I customized my sticks , in many ways.
I use each variety less independent than typical..
Multi-media style for me is
I think the reason why one was round and one was rectangular is because the rounded one says "Baton"
Are you aware that when you mix the Nitram dust with water, it becomes like a paint?
I actually like to spray it with alcohol to create a drip effect.
Which more darker? Pierre noire 3b or nitram soft stick?
Would be hard to go back to willow &Vine.
I have multi- purpose sharpener.
"Petits Batons" means "Little Sticks"
is strathmore drawing paper good for nitram charcoal ?
That is a very broad question given that Strathmore makes many different types of paper. I use Strathmore Toned Tan or Toned Gray paper and it works great.
@@JasonTako thankyou 😊
@@JasonTako in the video, is this the paper? (Strathmore tones or tan)
@@felipelima1754 At this point I can't remember the exact paper I used.
@@JasonTako thanks
Is there a physics that can lift back to pure white.
If you use smooth newsprint paper, charcoal that is not compressed is usually fully erasable (at least to a certain point).
The blowing as a group of artist in a room is bad
People. Stop blowing coal miners dust into the air(bourne/particles).
