    I used a pencil like this , we called them grease pencils, when I was getting my photography degree, you could make a contact sheet of your negatives and circle the shots you wanted to print, or make marks about how you would print the pictures for editing purposes. It would write on glossy paper. I read that it doesn't scratch surfaces and can be removed so maybe that is a plus.

    I grew calling these 'china pencils'. They're used for marking China, glass, & ceramics. I think my dad might have used them in his job as a film stripper in printing too because I remember him having black, white, and red at least. I used them in school over 20 years ago to doodle on the old blue denim-y fabric binders we had back then. The shading was very cool. I also used them later to mark laminated travel maps when I'd go out. I got a new set of rainbow colors a couple of years ago just to have in the house for misc things and arts & crafts. Definitely a neat art supply to have around & play with.

    The point of those writing on plastic / glass / metal / film etc. Is not that they write well on those surfaces, but that they write without damaging the surface and can be removed. Like marking the size of a piece of glass or marking film for select images / printing instructions. The string thing is so that you can keep writing without having to get pencil shaving on your work surface, it's the glass / film ew to a dry erase marker.

    My "old person" memory of these is it's always an orange one, with a piece of yarn tied to the end, and the yarn is tied to a clipboard, which is holding a chart of some sort in a plastic paper protector, and then you can mark off the chart (bathroom cleanings? seating chart?) with the dangling pencil.

They are really easy to wipe off of glass and china. Ive always known them as “china markers”. Mine came from my grandpas drafting supplies. Also i think my father in law uses his to mark glass and plexiglass before he cuts in his woodworking projects.

    In hand clinics, a place for rehabilitation for hand and arm based injuries, these pencils are used to draw the outlines of custom splints!
    They are bright which makes it easy to follow for cutting. Also the splinting material is put in warm water baths which temporarily makes the material more malleable for cutting and shaping directly on the patients hand/arm. So these pencils are good for withstanding the dips into water as well! It's cool to see products used differently though, and I love how vibrant your creation is! 😍

    We used these pencils a lot for life drawing classes in college.

The paper peeling part of them came in handy if you're working say in public and don't want to carry a lot of supplies. I think they were made with the intent more for putting notations or marking on items while also being easy to remove less so of being something to actually draw with.

    in Australia when first learning to write at school they were called chinagraph pencils. they were used on a clear plastic sheet over a worksheet to trace letters, numbers, words etc, and were easily erasable, so we could perfect our handwriting

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE these! I use them for figure drawing as an alternative for charcoal cause of the lines you can get and the different shades you can get. I don’t really use them for illustrations as much though.

    In art school we called these China Markers (not markers from China, but for making marks ON china, as in porcelain) and they were used for life drawing and rough sketches. They were bold but imprecise and non-eraseable, so you were forced to make large decisive strokes that are vital to shorter 30 second to 3 minute poses. The pull tab made it easy to "sharpen" quickly while working, it was seen as similar to using charcoal or conte.

    My figure drawing teacher called the pencils China Markers. He encouraged us to use them when sketching models because we couldn’t erase and they have a wide range of tones from deep rich blacks to very light grays.

    In pharmacy we call them China markers (like for writing on porcelain) and we use the black one to block out patient information on old prescription bottles and other sensitive information. The string is helpful in a fast paced environment where you might not have a pencil sharpener and the blunt tip is more useful for blocking out large amounts of information with one solid pass

    We use dermatograph as an eco alternative for highlighters when we need to study or draw on our books or notebooks. You can put the peeled paper on the compost or on the potted plants as you further use the pen. It is much better than the palstic exterior of highlighters that can't be reused or recycled. 😊

  • @killuz9355

    We used these a lot in my plastic arts college, mostly for sketchbooks but also combined with other mediums such as coal, conté pencils, dry pastels, and oil pastels.
    If you liked them I highly suggest trying oil pastels. Also, grab a black if you can, its a very satisfying black medium cause its very deep and flat!

    Hi Kasey! I think the string, as well as the use upon diff surfaces, can be summed up more from a business practical sorta' perspective. Here in Canada, I've only known them as "grease pencils". They have been present in all fast food environments I've worked in. The string is very practical, in that fast food environments are generally fast paced and hectic. To be able to quickly remove a strip of paper, and to not have to worry about finding ANOTHER object (a sharpener), makes the string SUPER useful. Like, as a barista at Starbucks who needs to label drinks quickly during a rush, while understaffed.... super useful. The pencil itself works very well on more.... textured plastics, as well as plastic/glass which is holding hot liquids. So, it's very practical to use when labelling the holding time of 2omins on a fresh brewed pot of Tim Horton's coffee, it's used frequently to label burger wraps (generally a wax type paper), Tim Hooton's coffee cup lids (which is a more textured plastic, as opposed to the very smooth plastic you used in your video), etc. And the pencil's don't transfer easily onto fabric, so they're good to keep stored within one's apron pocket for easy accessibility. I've never thought of these pencils to be used in an artistic fashion, and find the concept super interesting. With the more practical side to these pencils touched upon here, I think you could explore using them more in an artistic way in a future video! If you choose to of course.

    I work in a medical lab where we use pencils like these to label glassware (tubes, stain baths, hemocytometers, slides, etc) for counting and differentiating blood cells in patient samples. Adhesive labels are too difficult to remove cleanly and quickly, so china pencils come in handy.

    My grandpa uses theses for glass, wood, and metal working. He uses it like you said in the video, to make marks for cutting and stuff. It can also be wiped off of the surfaces so after you cut your lines can be removed.

  • @ChibiChidorii
    @ChibiChidorii 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    the unwrapping can be really good for woodworking or anything where you gotta mark a hole.
    for art purposes maybe they can be used to draw onto plastic figurines, but just like with watercolor pencils it's gotta be with a porouse plastic for better gripping or using a sealant. these pencils are made so they are easily removed.

    I remember these! During elementary art class the teacher told that these are for lining the lines when you've finished drawing so the line will look bolder, the string can be a problem if not pulled correctly though

    I've used these pencils for environmental fieldwork a lot! They're not made for artwork (what you made looks amazing btw) but are great for marking things down on various surfaces and the string is useful because pencil sharpeners are small and can easily get lost if you're outside, especially in wooded/wetland areas, or even at construction sites and stuff like that.

  • @graphicsart22blue19
    @graphicsart22blue19 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I use to make signs and we used these all the time to mark plastic so we know were to cut and place vinyl. And multiple colors help for all the different color plastic, metals, glass, some wood I have used it like MDO. They whip off easily with water that is why we use them. (Some of the guys I was around would make plastic with the same color so they didn’t need to whip it off)

    When I was in art club in high school, we would use the white pencils to draw on windows of local businesses, before painting a Christmas/Holiday murals over the top with... acrylic or tempura paint, I can't remember which one (this was how the club made most of their money for the year). Then once the holiday season was over, the same businesses would hire us to come back and scrape the murals off with razor blades. I didn't realize there were other uses for this type of pencil, other than sketching to draw murals on glass! It was interesting to see this video ^^.
