Not worth the mess and hassle!

According to my experience, this charcoal powder is difficult to work with and creates a lot of mess. The powder gets everywhere and smudges easily, making it hard to achieve precise lines and shading.

Pros
  • None that I experienced.
Cons
  • Messy, difficult to work with.

Cons
  • Zero

Painty effects with charcoal

Yesterday I used charcoal for the first time in a character drawing workshop. I applied it to the shadows with a soft synthetic brush when I was working on the drawing. When I use charcoal powder, my drawing is more painterly than when I only use charcoal.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick guide
