Chalk!Cuddy

ooooooh! What a horrible, frustrating medium to work in! *stomps on chalk pastels and breaks them into little bits*

I mean, I'm fairly happy with the final result, but it was so messy, and drawing with those stoopid little rectangles is like drawing with the blunt end of a crayon! How the hell are you supposed to get any details with a big, fat rectangle? Not to mention that for some reason, I had to practically sand off the factory edge to get any colour. I spent the first two minutes just making blank scratches on the paper. grrrrr

On the good side, they blended well, (too well) and they were very quick to work with, but nope....don't like 'em! I think I had to stop and wash my hands about forty times to avoid totally smudging everything together.

I think the pastel factory puts a coating on them so while they're in the box or in transit, they don't just rub all over each other and become a big mess of chalky dustiness. You can break them in half or use sandpaper to get the coating off, I think.

I'm glad you will try them again. I love seeing you work with new media!
