Pencils, paper and supplies
To draw a character from a movie, you will need the following set of tools:
- a sheet of white paper. It is better to choose albums or sketchbooks with thick materials;
- several pencils with leads of different hardness. Different materials help in creating smooth or hard lines, and also provide high-quality shading;
- kneaded pencil or eraser. Stationery tools have several differences. A kneaded pencil removes the top layer of the lead, creating a lighter coating. An eraser completely erases the lead, in some cases the drawing can be smeared;
- additional tools. To obtain a more precise drawing, you can use a compass or ruler.
To color, you will need a basic set of paints or pencils, markers or felt-tip pens.
