My Tools:

Sketching - I use a set of Faber-Castell Goldfaber skecthing pencils, with a Daler Rowney A4 sketchbook. I also use a set of Conte Tropicolor pencil crayons, or some Tri-color pencils.

Painting - I use Daler Rowney Brushes, and either System 3 or Liquitex Acrylics, Georgian Oils, and whatever canvasses I have to hand, or a Daler Rowney Acrylic pad.

Pastels - I either use Conte Pastels, or Faber-Castell Pastels, along with either my Daler Rowney A4 sketch pad, or my A2 Cartridge paper.

Photography - I use my trusty iphone camera for a lot of my quick pics, and if I am doing proper photography I use a Minolta Dynax 404si with 35-80mm Lens.
