- I love using the Derwent Graphitone. It easy and convenient to use. And it's great for practising painting values.

I was excited to see your video, drawing with watersoluble graphite is one of my favorite ways to sketch. One way I like to use the pencils is by brushing a waterbrush on the pencil tip and applying the graphite with the brush which helps me to add more shading, too. I've ordered the Graphitone pencils after watching you dissolving it onto a palette, something I haven't tried yet.
Hi Teoh,
You have very good contents in your channel.
From drawing tips to material reviews...
Little did I know you are the author of the awesome Parka Blogs as well!
Most of my reference for art book purchasing decisions is from your blog.
Do keep up the awesome work, sir!
I have used water soluble graphite pencil lots of time, I happy to see that this is the same technique I use it...but I like it more of I first shade and then apply water over it, it gives more sketchy feeling + sometimes it's good to keep few area only rendered and few glazed! Great video! :)
I find some water soluble graphite a bit difficult to dissolve when applied on paper then wet. There are some that doesn't look nice when wet and applied. Really depends on the look you're after
Teoh Yi Chie That’s true!
I love the way you explain things! Very understandable and well thought out!
Thanks :-)
Totally agree!
I love your tutorials! I'm going to try this to practice values. Thank you!
Thank u! These pencils are alot of fun!! I appreciate how u make your tutorials easy to understand!!
These are good to use and I have a few, but never put them into a palette. I like that idea. Thanks again Teoh.
I still have yet to check out this product, as I don't know if I'd use it often enough. But boy, do you make me want to check them out anyway! Great stuff, Teoh, as always! Cheers! :)
It's not an expensive product so even if you don't use it, it's not too bad. But if you make a series of sketches with it, those sketches are going to look quite great.
I love your channel so much but I can't remember your channel name until I tried to google about scanner topic. I glad I found it :p
Watched it with my 6 year old :) he was so fascinated in the process of drawing a car!
Great tutorial. I like how you made a wash in the palette before shading - result looks much better than wetting lines on the paper.
I don't like drawing and then wetting because some parts just don't dissolve totally, but maybe that's the way it's suppose to work.
Excellent tutorial. 👌 Very well explained and demonstrated. That would empower 💪 one to give it a try and most likely keep at it. Thanks Teoh.
totally agree!
thank you for the amazing videos, Teoh! I am an instant fan when i watched one of your videos and i got hooked. I am a film storyboarder in Kuala Lumpur.... keep up these good works! Subscribed!
Thanks 😁
You're a great teacher!!!
This is a nice tutorial. I've been using normal black ink, and just adding water to it to make it lighter.
Ink works as well using this technique. Might be easier too since ink dissolves so readily.
Merci beaucoup Teoh! C'est super!
Nice work. Didn't even know there was a water soluble graphite.
Now you know. Have fun :-)
He is so so good isn't he. Always so much to learn, such fun.
Very helpful! Tx a lot! I've been using Bistre for this, but that's not so easy to bring along.
Love your videos and tutorials! Thank you for sharing your knowledge (every time I want a content-related opinion on an art supply, I'm looking for your review; I blame you for spending a small fortune on Daniel Smith watercolors ;)).
Anyway, I have a question - do you think the Graphitone could be used as an underpainting for watercolor? I love to mix a lot of different mediums and been wondering if this could work.
You can use graphite as underpainting. Personally I find that it dulls the watercolour but some artists do use gray underpainting. Depends on whether you like the look or not.
Thank you for the reply, Teoh! :) I will try it out and see what I get. I like/need to use dull colours sometimes so it may be something for me.
so so good!!!
Great tutorial!
Thanks :-)
Totally agree!!
I was just experimenting with watercolour and charcoal when I saw this video. :-)
Dear Teoh, I love your video's but I have a question nothing to do with the subject here... Have you heared about a notetaking book named "Elfinbook"? I think it's something that you could consider making a review on it from your point of vue as an artist! Best friendly regards!
I've not heard of Elfinbook before.
Wonderful.
Thanks :-)
Hello, first great video tutorials.. thanks.. could you demo how to use a cutting tool.. thanks in the sketches app.
Really great tutorial- thank you very much! Just wondering if it’s possible to erase into it , after it’s dry? For example, could you lift highlights?
After the watersoluble graphite is dry, it is almost waterproof.
Teoh Yi Chie Thanks!
hi teoh I really like ur videos can u make a drawing of a lion and its families with a grassland background
Watercolor paper? 🤔 What is the brand?
