The stuff I draw with

Ok, so one of the biggest pains is figuring out what to draw with.

There are a lot of artists out there that will freak out if you ask them what they use. They will then launch into a long rant about practice and learning and stuff you didn't ask them about because you know about all that stuff.

Since I have had more of that kind of conversation then I would ever wish. Because while I understand not wanting to give out trade secrets and such, art supplies are exspensive and if knowing what I use helps you then by all means take a while and listen.

I prefer my Sakura Microns for a true black. If you are doing art I say Go with them. But I am not using them for this because I am abusing the crap outa the cheap pens I grabbed specifically for this project.  If you are doing art I say Go With Them!

Drawing Materials:

Prisma Color Premier 4 pack pen thing.
It has a chisel, brush, 05 and 005 tips. They were $10 bucks at wally world and they draw like it. The black pigment is crap and not nearly as dark as I like. But the brush tip is durable so far and i like how the chisel tip writes. To be frank, they were cheep and I didn't want to use my Microns.

"Card Stock" paper stuff.
For this I am using a package of pre-cut card stock in a saran wrap from joanns... I'm not sure what the real name is. I'll update this after I get more. The small size is less intimidating for me to try and fill. So it kinda forces me to be creative.

On the flip side to all of this, no mater what size of paper.... I will always have not enough paper. Always! You will see that in the stuff I'm posting here. XD

I also made this a perm page thing at the top so people don't have to dig for it if they need it.
