Having trouble coming up with something to draw? No worries - while you'll eventually learn how to start from a tiny seed of a thought and gradually nurture it into a complex concept to explore through design and illustration, it's perfectly fine not to be there just yet.
For now though, here's an idea that might interest you.
Mascot High School
Oh, did you think they were just born ready to represent multinational brands? Hah! No - just like you, they had to attend school. And boy was there drama.
Envision your favourite (or most hated) brands' mascots as the students, teachers, and staff in a high school environment. There's lots to explore here - classroom antics, club activities, sports, and more!
This one isn't doing it for you? How about this one instead: Lost in the Multiverse >>>

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something we've used ourselves, or know to be of impeccable quality. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
