No worries, thanks for the insight! I feel like I’m learning a lot at the moment practicing with my Intuos, and at the moment I struggle more with digital sketching than analog. I suppose I’ll figure out some of those little shortcuts at one point or another, but at the moment pencil and paper is challenging enough for me!
In my first drawing class, my prof had us practice building on pentimente with green and purple Prismas. I like blue though because it seems easier to build a wide range of tones. It also reminds me of those neat blueprint drawings
