Is this the Most Underrated PENCIL? Realistic Portrait Drawing Tutorial (Part 1)

‪@BMDPortraits‬ shares another realistic portrait drawing tutorial featuring a Breed of Drawing Pencil that i feel no-one seem to likely use more often as compared to Graphite and Charcoal pencils. As a portrait artist myself who also accepts commission portraits this pencil has the best quality in terms of values and details and realism. This is a lot easier to work on compared to charcoal pencils and a lot quicker compared to graphite. But maybe a lot of factors affect the popularity of this pencil like the availability in certain countries or the price which is higher compared to certain graphite or charcoal pencils or maybe the behavior of this pencil requires some adjustments especially for portrait artists who got so used to graphite and charcoal. But this is one of the finest pencil i have ever tried and i want to share to you my experience with this pencil called Cretacolor Nero Oil Based Charcoal pencil.
