Sketching: H and HB pencils are best for sketching. Sharpness: H pencils tend to be sharper even after prolonged usage as compared to B-category pencils. Shading: 4B and 6B pencils are best for shading

Why do sketches look better than line art so often?
Sketches are often quick and loose. This allows the mark making to be fresh and open. when you begin to line the work you are making the marks all the same weight and it takes the freshness away from the original sketch.
