evaluation of the medias (horror project)

i had created a 6 panel drawing, using 6 different medias, alot of the medias i used where described on the last log book entry, with this 6 panel drawing i had created 6 images from my level, with the media and said how i found using them and if i liked them or not, or whether i'd use it again, in this log book i will simply say to go along with my drawing, "what didn't go well an why" and also "what will i use them for in the future"

what didn't go well and why

what didn't go well was the granite, the charcoal and the copic markers, first of all i have no idea how to use granite correctly as it was my first time using it, i merely used it like a thick pencil but didn't do well with using it, next was the charcoal, again, it was my first time using it, and so i had trouble trying to use it, charcoal is very messy and smudges easy, so therefore i found it hard to use, and it didn't go well, the last media was copic markers, i hate these things, yes they are good with creating a gradint-ish look on things, but when colouring in small areas, or anything in general, i find it hard to use, i do like the fact the marker has 2 different style tips but still, it is very hard to use in my opinion.

Uses in the future

pens and pencil : would definitely use this i the future, as i am used to pen and pencil i will mainly use this all the time for sketches and shadings, it's one of the easiest medias to use for me and so it will be most handy when sketching ideas and drafts

water colour: will probably be used always when having to research different medias, i love water colour and it i one of my favorite medias, i know i have to research OTHERS but  water colour will be one of the main ones i use for any paintings or further research in concepts and design.

Copic marker: i will use this rarely as i dislike this type of media, but i will use it mainly if i have to research about another media, or if i want to do a hard edge shading, that's what it is best for to me

digital: i will use this very often for designing and drawing, also for research into other medias, digital rt is very simple and easy to do for me and i do it on a daily basis, so like pencil and pen i will basically use it to sketch, design, and colour etc in the future.

charcoal: i will probably never use this again unless i wish to learn new techniques with shading and drawing, or if i need to research another media or use another media for my project.

granite: not much to say for this but i probably won't use this in he future, as i have no idea how to use it properly, some lengthy research would have to be done before i even consider using it.
