Ok, I've always heard about Electric Erasers, some people like them, some others say they are dangerous for the paper and for pencil drawings in general. But I really wanted to try one. I ordered one here --> [link] under the section "Drawing Accessories".


Well... I've just received it and I must say I :heart: it!!!


I used it on an area that I fully covered with a 3B graphite pencil... it showed the white of the paper with a precision hardly achievable with a normal rubber... its rubber tip rotates very fast and you can use the sharp edge to erase clear lines... I think that cutting the rubber into a fine tip you can erase clear white dots!
I'm longing to experiment a lot with it!


So, I just wanted to share this fact with you. I also ordered other stuff from that site, and I think the shipping cost is very fair compared to other sites.


No... I don't take any percentage or charge from them, if you were going to ask :P, I just think that it's nice to share tips, techniques and experiences!
Yeah someone told me "what works for me maybe won't work for you", and I agree with it a lot but... isn't sharing a good thing?


So... let me say again... W0000t! :w00t:


I really can't wait to use it on my new portrait ;)

if you use PAYPAL ask them to pay with it. I asked them and they allowed me to do it. They reply very fast!

Wow, I've never even heard of those! Sound fantastic - I've found erasers always give me huge grief when they aren't great - I spend tonnes on them to find decent ones. I might just look into this ;)

Thanks for sharing. :hug:

just a lot of dot coms don't deliver outside the us. i wish that i could download stuff from the italian ipod website, but THEY don't let me. I guess I was thinking it was sort of the same thing.
