Sketching is usually done on special sketch paper. When choosing sketch paper, we should pay attention to its firmness, smoothness, wear resistance, fine texture, no wrinkling and easy modification. For example, sketch paper and pencil drawing paper, such as paper that is too thick, too thin and too smooth, are not suitable for pencil drawing.
The size of paper used by beginners should be 8 or 4, and coated paper and copy paper with the size of 16 are suitable for sketching with pens and ballpoint pens.
Coated paper is also called printed coated paper. The surface of the base paper is coated with a layer of white paint, and the base paper is made of super calendering. It is divided into single-sided paper and double-sided paper, and the paper surface is divided into light splitting and cloth grain. The paper has smooth surface, high whiteness, good ink absorption and ink adhesion.
It is mainly used for offset printing and gravure printing of fine screen printing, such as illustrations in advanced picture books, calendars and books. The disadvantage is that the powder is easy to stick and fall off after being wet, so it can't be stored for a long time. ?

As for pencils, they are suitable for smaller sizes. There are few large pencils, while pen-and-ink drawings are even smaller, and they are often used for illustrations. The monochrome performance of sketch makes the tool very random, and it can often be used comprehensively to create a variety of picture effects, so it is a very broad world.
