How come you do not use a boxcutter and sandpaper to get a long sharp point?

Quite helpful!

The 602 is really nice.

And now in 2024 the model number is ‎132 49CB36X. Wonder how those compare.

Superb❤

Re watchin because im getting back at it and forgot stuff lol ...still love your vids Rick!!!

How to buy it

This is so helpful for me. I was trying to figure out how this tool works. Thank you!

2B or not 2B. That is the question.

Always a joy to see a rix video! Thank you

How does it look without the clip on, does the screws stick out? Please do a little video of them without the clip

No, using a grid isn't cheating. I could use a grid to reproduce the outlines of a Vermeer painting, but I would still have to have his skill and talent to paint it. I do photorealistic graphite drawings. I use a grid for the outlines, but I still have to put in all the work to complete a drawing. I could give that outline to my husband, but he wouldn't be able to get good results!

Better be crazy good. They’re around 200 bucks each. Wow.

It’s great to see you back on.

I think we’d get along just dandy 😎 (OR, we’d kill each other 😂🤣😂) I’m a born “editor” and had great fun spotting all the differences. I would have done it without the prompt to do so 🤓🤪

I’m an English professor (art major and watercolor teacher too) and my goal, my job as an instructor is not to stroke people’s egos. My job is to help them be better at the end of the course than they were in the beginning. People (especially snowflakes coming out of high school) are so used to only getting compliments (trophies and ribbons for just showing up🤦🏻‍♀️): Oh! It’s awesome! Oh you’re so good at xyz!! Beautiful job! Yay you!!! NONE of those things helps them improve. There’s always room for improvement, whether you were at the top of the class or the bottom, there are always skills that can be sharpened. Don’t feel bad about helping people improve. That’s why they’re tuning in. Of course many didn’t like me or my courses, until they went on to university. THEN they were very happy to have done the work and that I didn’t blow smoke up their arse the whole time (as evidenced by their after-the-fact, thank-you emails).

Does it matter what kind of paint brush you use to blend the charcoal?

Hey how do I correctly scale up an image from my phone to a large canvas or large sheet of paper correctly without using an app such as DaVinci Eye🤔??

mt comment 9.5x2 should read as 9.5x 1.5 = 14.25

you are so frustrating to listen to with your poor common sense,9.5 x 2 gives 14.25 that leaves 9.75,so mark half of that from one end and mark 10 points 1.5 apart ( gives you 9 spaces) and the final 0.75 x1 the balance will be the margin on the other side do the same on the other side

Grid is another form of tracing, but where you kinda put more efforts. It doesn't do much if your goal is to improve, you'll clueless about basic head structure without the grid. But if your goal is for commission or good looking drawing, then you'll do just fine.

Trying this now. Thank u

Doms superio vs doms karbon vs doms fusion . Which one is best?

This is my go-to pencil for writing, over the Mono-100, Hi-Uni, and infamous 602. It holds up well for lengthy writing sessions.

I dont know why but I love your handwriting. Can you share us your daily notebook?

thankyou ---magic method ! works well !

I can confirm that this trap does not work for South Texas gnats and fruit flies.

Excellent ❤

I want my ten minutes back please

That is not a 🐯 it's a lion for sure

Doms neon , apsara platinum, nataraj bold , which one is darker and smoother ?

Well done --its the only way --used it for 50 yrs =!

Your pencil collection is much better than your pen collection.

I’m trying to start from basically scratch with drawing….. or art in general. I’ve always struggled with how to center my drawings on the page to even start. Idk why I didn’t think of simply taping a print of my reference TO THE paper!! lol Simply but genius!

Yep... I feel the same. Mitsubishi just feels better.

Simplify --grid method still the fastest and most accurate ---!

1:20 It's "any farther", not "further". Farther is for distance. Further is everything else.

Why do people believe that they can buy a graphite pencil that will be just as black as charcoal when graphite is grey,🤔 The only way they are going to get black is a mix media built into a pencil but they always put a wax or oil with it for it too combine better and apply a smother movement onto paper and majority would be charcoal , But then they are not happy with the smudge test or eraser test, There are many other products in liquid that they place in pens that will give them the dark black look They need to use mix media products as well as graphite pencils christphore lovell shows great examples of his work using mix media pens and graphite pencils,

Compare nataraj 10 b vs apsara 10 b

Apsara platinum or camlin, which is best ?

3:49 now that’s a John wick certified tip

And they aren’t cheap

I have a love hate relationship with these pencils love the extreme black but they are so fragile my sharpest hand sharpener don’t even work some of theses just crumble like sand the entire pencil crumbled away
