Colour Blending with Tombow ABT PRO Alcohol Markers
Tombow alcohol marker blending by South African calligraphy and lettering teacher Robyn Anderson of Calligraphy Joburg...
This is a mini tutorial to show you how to do colour blending using alcohol markers. I used Tombow APT PRO Alcohol Markers and blended them together to create a vivid ombré effect. You have to use the correct paper for colour blending and I would suggest using a Bristol cardstock - I’ve used Tombow Bristol 250gsm cardstock as it doesn’t damage your nibs and the colours blend smoothly.
WHAT PRODUCTS I USED:
- Tombow ABT PRO Alcohol Markers - P055 Process Yellow (base word), P133 Chartreuse (for the lighter green blend) and P195 Light Green (for the darker green)
- Tombow Fudenosuke Brush Marker - hard nib - Black
- Tombow MONO Drawing Pen - Black 0.1
- Tombow Bristol cardstock 250gsm

    I just received (one hour ago) my first Pilot Parallel and was looking for an unboxing video. Thanks from the future...it's so helpful to get someone's hands-on honest experience. This is the pen I have been looking for. I've got a feeling I need to make room for one or two more. ;) A lot of the internet sure is silly stuff but aren't we fortunate that technology has enabled us to bring teachers from everywhere, even the past, to teach us. To me, that's the best part of it.

    Hi Robyn, nice video. However, what works the best, especially if the pen hasn´t been used for awhile, is really to remove the nib, feeder and the guide-rail thing, and clean all the parts. I do this every time I refill the converter, and it doesn´t take that long either.

    @jamesfahey7188 2 роки тому

    Good video, thanks! I was confused because I thought you had to hood the body of the pen in your hand at a 45 degree angle. But the nib at 45 degree makes so much more sense.

    • @calligraphyjoburg-robynand9331
      @calligraphyjoburg-robynand9331 2 роки тому

      So many of my students make that same assumption about the 45 degrees before the come to me for lessons. It makes a big difference once you realise that’s it’s the nib angle that must sit at 45 degrees and not necessarily the pen itself

    • @jamesfahey7188
      @jamesfahey7188 2 роки тому

      Do fountain pens write better when held at 45 degrees in the hand. I have a Mont Blanc EF that is less scratchy when the pen is tilted to 45 degrees. I just don’t find it comfortable writing at that angle and I can’t control it as well. I probably hold my pen at around 65 degrees.

    • @calligraphyjoburg-robynand9331
      @calligraphyjoburg-robynand9331 2 роки тому

      @@jamesfahey7188 I think its best to keep the pen at an angle that suits your hand, and some pens work better at different angles to others. I do find in general that the EF nibs are quite scratchy (compared to an F), so I'd advise keeping the pen at the angle that suits you.

    • @calligraphyjoburg-robynand9331
      @calligraphyjoburg-robynand9331 3 роки тому

      What I do is take out the cartridge and put some putty (Prestik or Blu Tack) over the opening to seal it.. keep it in an upright position somewhere (like in a small cup).. then put a new cartridge into your pen and continue writing (rinse out the pen first if you don’t want mixing between the previous ink colour and the new colour. Your old cartridge should keep for a while as long as the mouth of the cartridge is sealed
