New Pens and Pencils.

So new pens then, I got a hold of some more 

1) ZIG MANGAKA this time a set 0.1, 0.5 and 0.8. These are super fast drying, smear proof perfect for speed lines. I really want these in all the sizes but they always seem to be out of stock.

2) ZIG Millennium these are super precise, 0.20,0.25, 0.35,0.45 and 0.65mm a little bit scratchy when they hit the paper but again it has the super fast drying. Very good for precise miniature images as the ink stays where you put it.

3) ZIG Artist Sketching Pen these are exactly what they say they are, kind of up-market felt tips perfect for sketches, really cheap in price too, I am glad I bought three of them.


I noticed while working in my office, I kept grabbing my expensive pens and pencils to jot down notes for my "day job" so I bought some tools specifically for work.

4) & 5) Pilot V7 & V5 super smooth crystal clear ink, perfect for my bad handwriting.

6) Rotring TIKKY mechanical pencils 0.35mm, 0.5 and 0.7mm really incredibly smooth lead, so much so it took time to get used to it, the lead doesn't seem to snap either unlike the cheaper mechanical pencils I use for sketching. The lead being so strong too much pressure will indent the paper making it harder to erase. They are a good weight and if used properly, they are probably some of the best pencils I have used.

I think I am going to start trying out new paper soon, in the meantime here are some robo-sketches.
