That vintage electric is a treasure! We've had a lot of conversations about erasers over the years (that's one reason why we don't get invited to parties that often). We still know a couple of artists who call Artgums "bread erasers", and a few who still have a stash of old fashioned typewriter erasers, the pencils with an abrasive eraser core and a brush on the end. If you find that the paper surface has been altered too much after erasing, an agate burnisher can compress and smooth a rough passage enough that it won't stand out too much from the rest of the page, and even accept more drawing media.
Haha. I love it. I remember the ones with the brushes on the other end. Also. I looked for Large Marge on your site, but sadly she wasn’t available anymore. Thank you for having all the others. ❤️ www.ssavaart.com/art-supplies-list
What is the shelf life of an eraser? 🙋 I still have not one but two of those Staedtler eraser pencils with a brush at the end, all in baby blue colour. They are indeed very abrasive (probably too dry, since they are from the 80s). My father used a typewriter and had many of those very thin hexagonal erasers with a little hole in the middle. They were probably made in the 50s. All part of a collection I was unaware I was forming. Hope I continue to be invited to parties 🤭 nevertheless.
@@berolinastrassmann Erasers can dry out and lose the components that make them pliable ("plasticizers") but we think storage conditions can play a factor. Typewriter erasers were always almost too abrasive for use in artistic drawing, but in a desperate moment, when nothing else works, it's nice to have the "nuclear option"
My architect grandfather has a nearly identical one! I spent much of my childhood trying to convince him to let me mess with it, still think its cool as hell.
I didn’t know electric erasers could get as big as Marge! I personally just use cheap eraser caps from the dollar store. The triangle shape lets me erase fine details if needed, but usually since I ink and color my drawings I just need something to erase my light pencil marks under the outlines. I don’t draw with just pencil anymore, but if I did I’d probably want an electric eraser too
After watching you for a while , I’m beginning to think that you were born on a animator’s desk at pixar !! Your kind voice , calm vibe and youthful personality is not human ! YOU’RE AMAZINGLY UNIQUE !
hey scott! i love your videos soo much, your content has made me work harder to explore myself and bring more art into this world. i was wondering if you could try drawing kim kibum (also known as key) maybe? he's one of my favourite singers and a lot of his album concepts remind me a lot of you, probably because he's a big fan of the 80's concept. it would really mean a lot to me if one of my idols drew another one of my idols lol. anyways, lots of love! hope you have an amazing day ❤️
Erasers are really weird to me, I've seen really cheap ones have the same effect or better then the more expensive ones, it's really about trying all of them to find out the best one
Hello Scott. Ik you don’t post much and you probably won’t see this comment. But you are my biggest inspiration as a 13yr. I’ve been looking at your art for like 9 months now. And you’re the reason you brought me to actually try to work on something that makes me happy
That's so awesome. He's really easy-going and encouraging. I'm so happy for you, I wish I had been exposed to teachers like Scott (years ago), before I gave up and decided that I didn't have the required natural talent, and just wasn't an “artist.” I was amazed to learn recently that *anyone* can learn to draw (or do Anything), and that “natural talent” is in No way a requirement. People like Scott have inspired me to try again, and I'm doing some stuff I'm pretty happy with 😊.
My favorite erasers of all time were some cat erasers my sister got me in middle school.. I never used them but one day a girl I had a crush on borrowed one and used it and I liked her too much to get mad about it and she was like “woah.. that’s a smooth eraser! Can I keep this?” and I tried it… it was better than the expensive art erasers and the perfect blend of smooth, sticky, and soft. My sister bought me a bunch more so I could actually use them and I used them sparingly for years! Still the best erasers I’ve ever used and I’ve never been able to find them again… i can’t remember the brand name and I’ve tried a bunch.. it sucks.
When I was young I accidentally got a kneaded eraser for school instead of the rubber one and I thought it was a normal eraser that melted in the heat 😅 almost returned it but the texture was too soft and nice to give back, i eventually found out from a friend that drew what a kneaded eraser was and gave it to him since I had no use for it
I really love sand erasers, they work so well but be sure you do a test to make sure it won’t tear up your paper! I also love mechanical pencils for drawing, the lead is so soft and awesome for blending, the erasers on the back are also so good!
Been watching your videos for a few months now. You've inspired me to make art again. And for the first time I like watercolor. Thank you for everything
I draw with pencils (as in, just. Ticonderoga pencils) and as such, I find that the Ticonderoga erasers are some of the better ones when it comes to regular old pencils!
I love your videos so much. I started watching this year and I have learned so much about art from you. Your voice is so soft and kind, and your art style is just so calming for me, and I don't know why. You make great videos and I hope to get better at drawing and painting.🥰
Great display of erasers! I've been using Faber Castell kneaded erasers for years now and quite like them, although the erasers on the back of my pencils are handy too for things too tough for the kneaded one.
I use kneaded and I like the HI-POLYMER eraser by Pentel. Oh and you got me into the Faber-Castell “Eraser Pencil”. I love those things especially for small areas.
I just use my good ol’ mechanical pencil for everything. If the lead goes out, I steal some from another mechanical pencil(for some reason, some of my mechanical pencils feel better in my hand than others). If the eraser goes out, I just remove it and insert one from a used mechanical pencil. Happy drawing :)
I know this has nothing to do with the video, but everyday when I watch your videos you always make me laugh and when I need motivation to draw or to get inspired I always look to you. You are my favourite artist and one day when I grow up I hope to find the happiness and creativity you have. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Hi Scott! Idk if you'll see this, but thank you for inspiring me to just throw stuff on the canvas whether I think it'll be good or not, to not be afraid to just kinda see what happens and be ok with making something I don't love. It's helped free me from the paralysis of perfectionism and I've finished two small practice paintings that I've been able to give away to friends who genuinely actually liked them! (': they weren't fantastic but they're my first two attempts at gouache in the first place so I'm telling myself to go easy on the criticism 😅 and I'm definitely learning things for next time lol like I'm afraid of highlights and shadows aaaand that gouache needs a binder on these canvases or it cracks heh but ya know, that's ok! It's been fun and I think I've gotten a little bit better at some tiny things maybe. Cool! My profile picture is my second painting I let myself say is finished despite not going back in with highlights XD
My favorite eraser is the Tombow mono plastic eraser! It erases really well and leaves minimal shavings that easily clump together. Honestly, any Japanese brand is amazing for erasers and art supplies in general!
I have most of the erasers you showed, including the Derwent electrical (my wife made sooo much fun of that purchase...). Obviously not that vintage monster! I like those crumbly rubber erasers best, easy on soft paper in my experience.
While I used magic rub for a while, and still go back to it from time to time. My new go-to eraser is the Sumo Grip eraser. It’s a relatively modern Japanese eraser that features a foam like formula that’s kinda like a mix of a Mr. Clean magic eraser and a kneaded eraser. I would highly suggest giving it a go.
Aw man I loved my art gum erasers, they worked great for me! I loved them for figure and gesture drawing because I could buy the one eraser and cut it into three smaller blocks, then I would have sharp edges and corners or the bigger sides if I needed and it would eat through charcoal like a dream!
Hey Scott! I love your videos and I'm a subscriber since 20k! Watching your journey through these beautiful art series, 1 minute clips and long livestreams has really helped me grow as a younger artist, but what's helped the most is how you describe art and the acceptance you value and show through your pieces. It's truly inspiring!!! I understand this has nothing to do with the video, and is VERY cliche and cringy (sorry!) But I was wondering if you could maybe do a video on how you stay motivated and deal with art block? I really need it at the moment! 😅 I don't know if you'll see this or not, but thanks :)
I’ve been considering getting an electric and kneaded eraser at some point because mine are chonky and can’t do some of the jobs I need. Thanks for the recommendations scott! ♡︎
My sister recommended that I buy an electric eraser (which I did, she used to do art shows and sell her work!) And it works really well, but I don't use it as often as I use my kneaded eraser :)
I’m currently using the faber castell dust free eraser and it’s absolutely amazing. It erases almost everything, definitely the best one I ever used. I stole it in school but I found it on the internet for less than a dollar so it’s a really good deal.
There is an eraser from faber-castell which lets the eraserstuff roll up to bigger pieces. So that you dont have any dust (only the big things). I really like that one.
I typically use a pink eraser for large areas, and a little detail eraser. The kind that's like a mechanical pencil, but it's an eraser. I killed kneaded erasers like crazy, and electric would drive me nuts. I like to use a large makeup powder brush to make the eraser buts go away, while avoiding the smudging issue
I always use Rabbit erasers (they're the ones with the blue or yellow platic cover. They work so well. I think I've got one somewhere that was bough by my great-grandpa in like the 1950s and still erases perfectly.
wowza. Large Marge is definite my favorite dream eraser. thank you for sharing these types of erasers with us. I use the typical white rubber eraser found at any school supplies store. But these definitely gives me a clear idea of types of erasers to look for. thank you.
I bought the brush pens, pencils and watercolor sketchbook you use. Now I want a pretty colored kneaded eraser, mine is dingy grey. At any rate, I have no excuse not to get back into watercolors now! Thanks!
Large Marge looks like this old power drill I used to lug around that weighed like 3 kilos and would rip your arms off if you weren't careful hahaha love it!
whatever those erasers on the ends of bic mechanical erasers are made out of, mm nothing compares for me they’re so satisfying and effective for my sketches n all that
Depends on the paper too. I have a really nice mechanical pencil from TUL that i like and on some papers it can still be seen a little after erasing even tho its included retractable eraser works great. Just Depends on the paper.
I just wanted to throw this out there ypur a amazing artist keep up the good work most people on this app dont explain as much as you or tell stories you really inspire me to work harder on my Art Thank you so much.😁
Hey the earliest I’ve ever been! This seems very helpful thank you Scott. I love that you always give an honest review and are always so positive toward us! 💓
I have the rechargeable version of the derwent eraser and I love it! I have hand problems because of hypermobility related issues/injuries and it really helps reduce the impact on my hands and is great for precision erasing 😁. I also like kneaded erasers a lot since they're also easier on my hands and also really effective 😊. I don't have a large marge but I have mounted erasers on old electric nail file bits and used them in my e-file for tough/big jobs 😅 (also because it was really fun following through on the "what if?" my brain threw out about how well it would work 💀)
A few days ago I went to a museum is about pencils specifically derwentpencil! It was amazing and they had the worlds largest pencil ( and also u get free pencil and pencil crayons!) you should totally go!!!
After a quick glance I didn’t see anyone recommending erasers. So I’m gonna throw out my favorite, mono brand eraser! I personally love the black one. For some reason I feel as if it doesn’t smear the lead around as much as the white one. But I would use any Mono brand eraser over all others! I love them a lot!
Scott i am 10 years old but i learnt how to draw from YOU you suggested kneaded eraser i spent 2.50dollars on 3 kneaded erasers they are truly amazing thank you so VERY much
When i was in an artclub, our teacher was very against erasers and we only had kneaded erasers. i worked with charcoal a lot, but regardless, kneaded erasers are great to fidget with. maybe better as a fidget than a eraser for me lol now i use markers anyway.
My favorite back-of-pencil eraser has gotta be the Black Ticonderogas, but for a block, I've fallen in love with the Sakura Arch Foam Black. It's a thinner eraser, good mostly for smaller areas or use in a classroom, but it's probably the most easy on the hand eraser I've used. Has a nice perforated sleeve to make peeling it off as the eraser shortens easier too. I got mine hunting around on JetPens but I'm sure they're other places too.
Do More left-handed Art,I'd like to see you practice that since it'll give you more flexibility for your Art and let you have a bit more freedom of what you choose,trust me on this because I try and practice and I get better each time,you should try it! You did once say that art isn't art because of its quality but it's the storytelling that makes art,Art
Hey Scot, you might not see this but your missing a key eraser that I loved. Those tiny cute animal erasers you’d see at the pound shop if your lucky, they’re not that good, but my god did I love them. Tbh I think I just liked that they came as wee tigers and dolphins and other random animals. I just want to know if it’s just me that liked them/knows what I’m talking about
You forgot to add those clic erasers into the arsenal. You know the ones that are white and slide in & out of a plastic tube with a switch and make that zipper clicking sound as they retract and extend. Nice for tight spots and refillable and not too messy.
Can you do an art kit review for starting artist Christmas ideas. My teen daughter is really interested in art and I want to get her a big art kit. Good quality, but isn't too expensive.

Love the Axent Mellow eraser, they work brilliant with hard and soft pencils and don't scratch the surface, just like a kneaded and hard eraser in one
When I was young I accidentally got a kneaded eraser for school instead of the rubber one and I thought it was a normal eraser that melted in the heat 😅
almost returned it but the texture was too soft and nice to give back, i eventually found out from a friend that drew what a kneaded eraser was and gave it to him since I had no use for it
I got a new sketch book which looked like your hair journal so I started my own hair journal:)
Yay
I like that you still like the classics like the pencil eraser’s!
That last line had me crying- I did not expect this video about erasers to get me emotional lol but good video thanks 👍
I really love sand erasers, they work so well but be sure you do a test to make sure it won’t tear up your paper! I also love mechanical pencils for drawing, the lead is so soft and awesome for blending, the erasers on the back are also so good!

Hold further back on the pencil, then you lose leverage and can't press as hard. ^^

Try using a kneaded eraser, it allows you to gradually erase without being too hard on the paper.

@@ssavaart oh it’s in england Keseick it’s called “derwent pencil mueseum”
Can’t thank you enough for all your videos. What are your professional book recommendations for anyone wanting to learn to draw faces ?
What I’ve been using is the Staedtler Mars Plastic eraser. Works like a charm on sketches.
Art Gum is used for shading a lot, because it leaves a gray powder dark shade when it's done a erasing.
I never thought an eraser would have different strength 😂
Buti would love the auto eraser!
After a quick glance I didn’t see anyone recommending erasers. So I’m gonna throw out my favorite, mono brand eraser! I personally love the black one. For some reason I feel as if it doesn’t smear the lead around as much as the white one. But I would use any Mono brand eraser over all others! I love them a lot!
Scott i am 10 years old but i learnt how to draw from YOU you suggested kneaded eraser i spent 2.50dollars on 3 kneaded erasers they are truly amazing thank you so VERY much
When i was in an artclub, our teacher was very against erasers and we only had kneaded erasers.
i worked with charcoal a lot, but regardless, kneaded erasers are great to fidget with. maybe better as a fidget than a eraser for me lol
now i use markers anyway.
just an idea but i think you should try a dip pen i just got one and its pretty good for art not just for writing
Helpful as always!
Unrelated to video: what do you use to seal/protect your artworks (if needed)? Thank you.
Please try some more Faber Castell Eraser! They're great
Ay my man Scott best in the country fam
I got a kneaded eraser recently and it's just magic
My favorite back-of-pencil eraser has gotta be the Black Ticonderogas, but for a block, I've fallen in love with the Sakura Arch Foam Black. It's a thinner eraser, good mostly for smaller areas or use in a classroom, but it's probably the most easy on the hand eraser I've used. Has a nice perforated sleeve to make peeling it off as the eraser shortens easier too.
I got mine hunting around on JetPens but I'm sure they're other places too.
Ooh. Thanks
Do More left-handed Art,I'd like to see you practice that since it'll give you more flexibility for your Art and let you have a bit more freedom of what you choose,trust me on this because I try and practice and I get better each time,you should try it!
You did once say that art isn't art because of its quality but it's the storytelling that makes art,Art
I learned that kneaded erasers come is different colors!
Never knew there were other kind of erasers than Magic rub. Especially an electric one
Hey Scot, you might not see this but your missing a key eraser that I loved. Those tiny cute animal erasers you’d see at the pound shop if your lucky, they’re not that good, but my god did I love them. Tbh I think I just liked that they came as wee tigers and dolphins and other random animals. I just want to know if it’s just me that liked them/knows what I’m talking about
You forgot to add those clic erasers into the arsenal. You know the ones that are white and slide in & out of a plastic tube with a switch and make that zipper clicking sound as they retract and extend. Nice for tight spots and refillable and not too messy.
My favourite eraser is a kneaded eraser just because they make for an excellent fiddle toy
my fav eraser back of the pencil😬♥️
Hey can you make another video on Colored pencils? I really like your colored pencil videos
Sure
Please show us the next time you use large Marge! It'd be cool watching her in action in a real use scenario
I honestly hope I never need her again. She only comes out when I REALLY mess up!
Can you do an art kit review for starting artist Christmas ideas. My teen daughter is really interested in art and I want to get her a big art kit. Good quality, but isn't too expensive.
Scott you should try making a realistic drawing with crazy art art supplies
I swear by my Mono erasers and am yet to find one I like more
Also a big fan of the kneaded and sandy types for the right jobs
Great comparison :)
the erasers on the back of the pencils are like powerful beings locked away in a small object
Might aswell use the artgum eraser for blending or shadowing
Your personifications of Large Marge give me life! 🤩
ctrl + z is MY favourite eraser
Ha ha.
Large Marge is a literal weapon
