Guess, it’s the matter of the scale. Charcoal is meant for a bigger format, as I see it. Can you take a picture of your tools?

Thank you soooo much! :blush: :hugs:

Thanks @georkost too! :hugs: Maybe @jabinquaken could help you more… :relaxed:

I bought this set… The bigger scale thing you mentioned it makes sense… I started drawing few months ago after many many years… So maybe I should give a bit time…

. It was with ordinary pencil
You have so nice set! There will be a day that I will have something like that too. :slight_smile:

Great tool set.
Well, I think, a bigger format should help. Also, try to make it as clean as you can. I mean, try to depict smth. in the smallest number of strokes.
The opacity of the charcoal is very high, so better set it to few strokes and light pressure. Hard stuff. Patience needed.

Hope, it helps you.
We got a charcoal set but it’s just several sticks of coal without any wraping or wood covering (or any other holder). Never tried those. Like charcoal pencil more.

We get it same here… Without wrapping of anu wood covers. The pencils one are 3 times costlier… And thats obvious. :slight_smile:

Thank you @jabinquaken for the advice :slight_smile: I will try to follow :slight_smile: thank you for your time to answer :slight_smile:
