The number before these letters indicates the degree of relative softness or hardness. Thus, a 7B pencil will be softer than a 5B or 3B. The same numerical relationship is used to denote hardness. This means that, depending on what we want to draw, we can choose the one that suits us best. With a soft lead pencil we can achieve a wide variety of tones, from deep black to a smooth and homogeneous gray. With hard lead pencil we can draw very fine and clean lines. It can be drawn with graphite pencils in two different ways: with the tip of the lead or with the pencil lying down. With the tip of the mine you can draw points, lines forming hatches, hatches or any other graphic sign. The tonal differences of lights and shadows will be obtained by joining or separating the lines of the hatches, very close or intersecting for the shadows and separated for the lights, or by thickening the strokes in the dark areas and thinning them in the light ones. The use of the lying pencil, meanwhile, is ideal for drawing stain. The greater or lesser pressure exerted on the sides of the mine will provide shadows of different values. The colored pencils are used exactly the same as the graphite ones and the combination of both is very interesting.
