I used a blending stick! Basically a very tightly rolled sheet of rice paper. Finger smudging is effective for large areas, but not nearly as accurate for the finer detail. They're also super cheap, which is good because I burn through a lot of them lol

You could try these blending stump deals and wear gloves if it's really bad.

There is no such thing as a stupid question when it comes to art!! Here is a link to some blending pencils I use:

I had to teach myself different techniques on how to blend and how to make things look more realistic. It really does take time and practice and patience but I look forward to seeing what you create in the future!

Start practicing with these Otherwise not bad at all. Great start.

Thank you! I finished over the course of a few days. Shading isn't bad if you have the right tools

Try using art stumps. Amazon, the pictures show it at work: https://www.amazon.com/Blending-Tortillions-Sandpaper-Sharpener-Blenders/dp/B07K1B3ZTF

All of those kits I've ever seen have been aimed squarely at beginners and are pretty low quality. Your best bet would probably be to go the DIY route. I don't know anything about charcoal, but on the pencil side, here are some ideas:

  • Lead holder - 2mm is probably the size to aim for, but if they already have one that size or they like to draw really large then 5mm could be a good option too. Can also get a pencil sharpener for it. I really like this one for 2mm.

  • Kneaded eraser - I like these faber castell ones because they come with a little case which helps keep them from getting gross.

  • Sketchbook(s) - tons of options here. I'd recommend going to an art store and looking for one that catches your eye, as there can be a lot of variation in paper quality/texture that can be tough to compare online. Toned paper could also be a different option.

  • Blending stumps - whether or not these are useful depends a lot on her style, but even if she's not currently using them they could be fun to play around with and they're cheap.

  • Pencil case/sketchbook case - sketchbook cases come in a variety of sizes/shapes. You could probably find one to pair with whatever size sketchbook they typically use. There are also some nice pencil cases that have organized spaces to put things rather than just dumping it all in a bag.
