Hi. I wanted to ask, if it doesn’t bother you, if you could show us what type of pencils do you use for your sketches. What materials, in general. Mines are becoming old, and I’d like your advice to find knew ones to draw. Thanks, have a good day 😊

Hey there Nonnie,

From the top, here are my pencils:

mechanical pencils in 0.3 and 0.5mm size (I have different kinds as I was experimenting with which ones are nicest to hold, and different colours so I can differentiate between what softness/hardness leads are loaded in them).

traditional pencils in 2B and 4B.

I've been working a little bit on coloured paper, and using Prismacolor Premier pencils in various shades of warm and cool grey.

for erasers, I have Staedtler erasers that come as a pencil, easy to sharpen to a point and very handy for small areas, though sometimes I use them to blend a little too, and they've got a handy brush on the other end. Also a Staedtler refillable eraser (that's the blue plastic case) and a fantastic new one I just bought: the Tombow Mono Zero in rectangular shape (that's the silver case), which is really good for precision

on the left is a stick of charcoal I use sometimes, a brown OfficeMax pencil I found somewhere and have used in the last couple of arts, and an old make-up brush I use to clear the paper of eraser leavings or dust.

I may paint it at some point but for now just want to keep it line art.  Also I have my progress posted to my TikTok should you want to see what it was like to draw this.  My username there is joycreates

*Please do no repost.  However I’d love if you reblogged this.

Beekeeper Fairy AU

TW for bug features

Well, more like bee-helper fairies.

I wasn't really going to share this yet but you can thank @shirajellyfish for encouraging me to show it, even if I'm not yet sure if this is going to go somewhere or is going to stop here like my other projects and AUs.

These sketches are a few months old, I'd like to polish them a little. I was getting into the fairies mood lately so hopefully I'll redraw them soon but y'know I can't promise anything when it comes to drawing.

Some close-ups and more info under the cut + Ferns design for this AU (Now I have no excuse not to make memes between my 3 selfinserts lol)

So the idea of this AU is mainly to be a chill and cozy story. No angst or anything, maybe memories of a couple of bad events from the past, but now everything is healed and they are focusing on living peacefully.

The story would be around Fern who has their own shop of handmade kitchen tools, tableware, tea, coffee etc etc. (all ecofriendly vegan products) in a village. They are also a beekeeper, so she sells honey too at the shop.

One day collecting honey from the hives she finds a tired bee-helper fairy trying to hide. Decides to ignore it not to stress the little guy, but the fairy was still there when they were finished with the bees. So she goes inside the shed for a small cup of water with sugar to give to the fairy.

After that, the fairy followed Fern to the village and now it visits the shop very often. And Fern always has some treats for the fairy.

I have the idea of making an askblog for the AU. People could roleplay as the villagers coming into the shop to buy something and ask about the fairy(ies) and Fern would be the one anwsering. BUT that would require a lot of effort from me, making the drawings and expressions of Fern and the fairies, and have backgrounds from the villagers POV of the shop. And I don't want to do low effort background, I want the world to feel organic.

So idk, maybe I'll do a small comic but I can't assure to keep constant motivation for this.

1hr study, water based oils on acrylic paper, Marisa Coulter.

wip shots undercut, definitely a trust the process kind of thing 🥲 I'm trying to get back to basics with some rendering and it's really nice to crack out my A Level paints, these babies are like 10 years old and still going!!!
