    What is the difference between a tortillon and a blending stump?

    A tortillon is much smaller, thinner, and more precise than a blending stump.

    How do you clean a tortillon?
    Community Answer
    I just use a sandpaper block. Rub a tortillon at an angle on it and you're ready to go.

    Follow these instructions, but add more paper since the blending stump is much thicker. Stumps are used for thicker shading.

    Mine won't turn pointy. Why?
    Community Answer
    Probably because you're not using fine strokes. Just slide your pencil, marker or whatever you're using across your paper and do the opposite side the same way.
