great video. I always feel like youtube artist are to focused on getting views and doing more "interesting tutorials" and self taught artist like me dont see the importance of these kinds of exercises. Causing a stunt in artistic growth. So thank you.
little Do I feel the same way which is why I share the small but important details of how to actually draw. Thanks for noticing! You could totally help me out by sharing and liking videos I make that help you grow! Thank you so much for your comment!
Hi thanks for the video from fast few days I am struggling a lot on shading but frustrated because of not able to get correct value of shading and small clarification needed before I start it again is it fine to start applying pressure from starting to get darker or layer by layer and is it ok if the shading is shining for light please clarify it will boost me to move on
Yes you can apply more pressure from the start to get darker values. I still build them layer by layer, as I don't want to press too hard right away as it will dent the page and not apply graphite evenly. I add layers to make an even coat of even pressure, and change directions so I don't get stripe marks in the paper. The darkest value (10) will be shiney as graphite is shiney, but the other values won't. Keep going! Good luck!
@@Lzmstudio I feel it will help let's see I can get it or not because after watching this video I tried with 4b using layer by layer pressure to get 10 to 1 value but from 10 to 6 it's dent because I applied more and more presure and shining hope by practicing I will gain it thanks if I feel anything not getting I will get back to u hope u will help
Hi Irene, I think you're seeing glare on the shine of the 8B value scale so it looks lighter than the 3B at this camera angle, but it's equal in darkness. Graphite when totally pressed hard creates a shine. Does that make sense?
@@Reeniepie the 8B will get darker faster with fewer layers. The 3B can often get that dark (depending on the brand of pencil you use) but it takes more pressure and more layers to get there!

How is the 3B darker than the 8B?

LZM Studio oh ok. If they both get to the same darkness then what’s the difference between the two? Thanks for the response!

LZM Studio ok thanks 😊
