Description I have made a pastel tutorial, because some people have
asked me to do so and I could not even find a pastel tutorial at
DA, which quite surprised me. There were some links, but you know what they say: out there be monsters
What a lovely surprise to be on DA facebook's frontpage.
The amount of comments is heartwarming.
I will answer all in time, and thank you very much
And now a DD as well, oh wow Thank you so very much

These are the pastels I use
Soft pastels
Hard pastels

Bubo virginianus, Great Horned Owl.

The lovely reference picture is from
Thank you Nuna for letting me use it.

Wat super handig. Vroeger gebruikte ik vaak pastel. Ik moet ze maar weer uit de kast halen denk ik. Kan ik lekker aan de slag met je tutorial. Bedankt.
Prachtige uil trouwens.

First of all, I love your tutorial, it's so helpful And now I've got a really stupid question, I know, but how do you tell the difference between soft and hard pastels? I've got a set of pastels at home, but it doesn't say anywhere if those are hard or soft ones and I don't have much experience with them, so I can't tell either

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Sarahharas07 In reply to NanamiKobayashi [2012-11-20 21:38:40 +0000 UTC]

The soft pastels are round and the hard ones are squared.
I've added links to the tutorial to pictures of the pastels I use, maybe that will
clear things for you

NanamiKobayashi In reply to Sarahharas07 [2012-11-21 17:06:39 +0000 UTC]

I guess mine are hard ones, since they're squared
Thank you so much for helping me out, the pictures are really useful

Dankjewel Hendrik.
Nee ik gebruik geen fixeer. Vroeger wel, maar ik vind niet dat het veel nut heeft.
