As an artist ... not necessarily but I do (๑•ㅂ•)و✧ I use the side charcoal to shade our hand are use to knowing how to not use a lot of pressure
Personally, I sharpen my pencil that way too to get better strokes and textures when drawing with graphite the length of the graphite at the end helps with making a variety of stroke weights you can create when turning the pencil in different angles
I also sharpened my pencils like that.. like Issy_mh8 said to get better strokes and textures also and for defined lines and such..
if im the one using that even while holding, the graphite thingy will surely break. i don't really have a good grip control lol
really? wouldn't that be hard to use? it looks like 1-1.5 inch long.
practice, practice and practice
I saw my friend do that once and I tried to copy her because it looks cool but I just can't and my drawing sucks, I sometimes wonder why I'm the only one in the group with zero talent most of my friends are artist
the pencil's got over sharpened, right? or does the artist usually use their pencils like that?
