Hi, congratulations on buying a full set of Unison pastels, I'm envious!
I recently struggled through a workshop having lost my pastels along with my luggage. I had to buy Windsor and Newton pastels as replacements. The difference was incredible. They were unforgiving, scratchy and gave a very 'thin' result.
Unison also make fantastic darks, which I find are virtually ignored by other manufacturers. I love their flow, not quite as soft as Sennelier.
Re paper; have you tried Kitty Wallis paper, very popular in the US and will take wet media as well. It's a bit more expensive but high quality
I'm using sanded papers just now (such as Sansfix.)
Most are allergic to water though
Lovely picture, very loose and atmospheric.
His character shines through!
