Materials You'll Need

  • A set of coloured pencils. I use a set of 36 by Faber-Castell Polychomos. 
  • Grey paper. I use Strathmore grey drawing paper. - A sharpener, and eraser.  
  • I also use a white pen for some finishing touches (such as a Posca marker) or you could use white acrylic/gouache and a small brush).
