Tips and Tricks?

Does anybody have any tips for PrismaColor pencils?
I've had mine for like a year, and I feel like I really suck at blending.

Same with basicly every other media.

Don't press really hard at first, coz you'll never get anything blended that way. And I do a little bit of one, then the other, and keep switching back til it looks how I want it to.

i dunno what the brand is exactly...but i did graphics and we did pencil blending.

do mean like making orange on paper with only yellow and red pencils?

when i do it basically, as Lizb said dont press to hard. I use one colour in one direction and then the next colour in a different direction and keep going over it til I'm happy.

with prisma colours, i always press kind of hard. just because they have nice textures though.
it really jsut depends on what kind of look you're trying to achieve.

if you use the white pencil, it helps to blend over things and pull them together a lot.
you might even look into getting an actual blender pencil.
but i prefer just using the white one because it works a little better.
