Nitram’s Vine Charcoal: Super Honest Review

Nitram charcoal is definitely the luxury brand of artist’s vine charcoal, and the price certainly reflects that! In today’s review I am going to share with you what I think of Nitram’s charcoal offerings, which ones I love to use, and which I’d skip. I also share who I feel will enjoy this charcoal the most and who just may not see a difference between this and cheaper vine or willow charcoal.

    When it’s used it’s to be sharp like a needle so having multiple boxes of each H, HB,and B pre sharpened, once dull you put it aside and pick up the next sharp stick, resharpen on your drawing breaks. It’s usually done on cold press water color paper like arches bright white and Fabriano Artistico white and Fabriano Roma paper some times mi tienties. The process can be very time consuming but yields great results.

    For the scratchy one I will do a experiment to solve the drawback/issue.

    I imagine by now you know that Nitram is NOT a vine charcoal. Still a very nice, very useful review. Thank you.

    Very good and informative video, but the background music is very disturbing and annoying.

    Thanks for the video, just a small tip, lower the volume of the background music a bit ;)

    Sadly ,that the speed that I work with , Nitram gets ' lost in the sauce '. Even the willow and vine. Too focus on my result

    So many dead artists would have used Nitram. Quite likely even Ingres instead of his graphite . We are living in unique time

    So much of Nitram is wasted (TONS).
