B Range Pencils – Great for beginning stages. Soft and easy to move around and erase.
HB Pencil – A little harder than the soft, B, pencil. Use if you need to have more control. Great Pencil when making general changes in the beginning stages.
H Range Pencils – Use for fine details when working in the lights and highlights. Leaves lighter marks which is wonderful for details but is harder to erase. Great for complete control in the highlights.
