Swatching Inktense pencils + a look in my Sketchbook

I'd thought I'd swatch for you my Inktense pencils as they are such a key part of my sketching kit. I also wanted to show you how they look in both their dry and wet format, as I think you'll find it interesting to see the difference, especially if you haven't used them before. I've had mine for around 2 years but really only started using them in the way I do now in the last year or so. I use these in all my sketchbooks alongside my water soluble crayons and luminance pencils and in this video I give you a glimpse of how I use them in my sketchbooks too.

I recommend you start with the basic set of colours to get used to them and then you can add more colours as you become more confident with them.
