Question 1

are these pencils made in Japan, or..? (thank you)

Accepted Answer

these pencils manufactured in japan are excellent for designing and making techniques of shading and graphite ... (thank you)

Question 2

Do they make the leads for clutch pencils

Accepted Answer

They do make clutch pencil lead, 4H to 4B if I remember correctly. Just search Uni hi-uni 2mm lead, and you should find what you need. There clutch pencils also look fantastic, they're even color coded for easy reference.

Question 3

Would it be worth my money to buy this set if i already have a full set of derwent pencils(9h-9b)?

Accepted Answer

I am not familiar with Derwent Pencils. If Derwent is very high quality then it most likely would not be worth it. Uni HI UNI wood pencils are very high quality. If you want the 10 H or 10B then perhaps you can buy those two pencils. However if you sketch alot and wear down your pencils quickly then you might be better off buying the whole UNI HI UNI set

Question 4

does the pencil lead give off a glare on the paper when in the light?

Accepted Answer

Yes. That is the nature of graphite, though. Graphite all by itself tends to be very reflective. If you're looking to photograph your drawings then try this:

Place your finished image on a comparably darker surface. I use my desk, as it's cherry stained. This helps with white balance. Now for lighting. Avoid having light shining directly on the paper, as that's going to show off the natural shine of graphite. What you want to do is have a nice, even ambient light. Daylight works best, but I've been able to manage with two desk lamps on either side. Hold your camera/phone in between those light sources, and make sure that they're not pointed directly at the drawing or the camera. Avoid flash.

Play with that setup a bit, and you'll find what works for you. Every room is different. But you can get nice photographs of your work even without an expensive camera if you take advantage of the light.
