If shipping unframed you must make make sure the artwork is wrapped in something which won't remove pastel from the painting! I use glassine over the painting and then foamcore boards front and back and taped together for extra protection and so the pastel painting won't move in transit.

You don't need all of these things. You do need one of the erasable drawing tools, a sharpener and a kneaded eraser as well as some paper to draw on. For serious oil pastels painting I recommend watercolor paper, museum board, all-rag mat board, oil pastels card or sanded pastel papers.
I prefer to use colored construction paper as a base for work with oil pastels. Each class gets a different color (I have 7 groups of 3rd graders for ex.) and the rule is that none of the paper color can show through the final artwork. This results in thick, rich color blends. Hope this helps...
Creating Detail by Layering My method requires you to layer your pastels a little: you put down one mark, for example a dark colour. You then go over it with a lighter colour but you leave a small bit of dark uncovered. That small area is your fine detail!
You can also try to wrap a bit of cotton on the tip of a toothpick, and use it to apply small details. The next option is using linseed or baby oil to ``thin down'' your pastel beforehand and then using a small brush to apply it on the areas you want finer details on.
