What’s the difference between a ‘drawing’ pencil and a ‘sketching’ pencil - are they both graphite?

Yes, they are both graphite. ‘Drawing’ pencils are at the harder end of the scale (H), the higher the H number the harder the graphite and the lighter the tone it will create. ‘Sketching’ pencils are softer (B) and make darker, richer tones.

How long are these pencils?

They are the standard 19cm in length, until sharpened of course.

Does this set come with a Tutorial and Guide Book?

Does this set include sepia and sanguine pencils?

No, sepia and sanguine pencils are only included in our 40, 60 and 100 piece Drawing & Sketching sets.

Can the pencils be bought individually?
