No I don't use fixatives on my works because it changes the lights and darks

Thanks! It's charcoal pencil.

Thanks for subbing!

Did you added a fixative on top of the black and white before coloring with pastels?

Depends on the size but usually a few hours if doing it on my own time. If with a model than I'll speed it up of course. No, I don't use pastelmat. I've actually never used a pastel paper before because they are too textured for me.

Yes these are chalk pastels. Soft pastels are chalk pastels. They are not oil pastels.

@@anduartist thank you I was 99% sure they were chalk, but they seemed to go on so smooth. Fantastic image by the way
