@nprofile1q... I'm gonna be honest I haven't had this problem because I've only ever used extremely thin paint for toning or I skip it altogether (digital artist brain, I like the contrast the blinding white background gives). I'd experiment on a tiny bit of canvas and check how hard you need to draw with graphite for it to show through the base tone layer. Alternatively you could just tone your canvas in bulk, let it dry for a few days and then draw over it with pencil later

@nprofile1q... You can totally do an underdrawing before putting the oils on, I know people say you're not supposed to use graphite but I've used hard pencils (3H-4H) in the past and just draw very lightly and I've never had any problems with it being visible on the paint. People online also recommend using charcoal but I personally haven't tried it, it feels to me like it'd muddy up lighter pigments

@nprofile1q... im tryinge
