Die Idee, einen Füller mit normaler Tinte zu benutzen um diese dann mit einem nassen Pinsel zu verwischen, gefällt mir! Darauf bin ich noch gar nicht gekommen! Ich habe noch so viele Patronen und Lust diese nun endlich zu Verbrauchen! Aber Mal ehrlich, danach gehe ich aber sofort zurück zu meinen unendlich vielseitigen Tuschefedern und werfe den alten Füller in den Mülleimer! LG.
It wouldn't be much of a sketch anymore. But using watercolor paper and wetting both sides of the paper, and really letting the paper soaking up the water. Then making a light and fast pencil sketch. Followed by an ink wash. This method creates pretty smooth blends on the paper without leaving edges. And when it dries you can layer it depending on what you use. Depending on the ink. Ink can usually be layered without reactivating. But the same method is usually used with watercolor and paint. The painting process I have been describing is usually used in productions for Matte painting backgrounds with studios like Ghibli. I personally love painting with colored inks since they can be layered, but the downside is that they can lack the vibrancy that can be better for high contrast landscapes.
Hello I just stumbled on your channel. You have opened my eyes a whole new way of using my water brushes. Unfortunately most fountain pens do not accommodate permanent ink cartridges and you are forced to use bottled ink which can be messy and inconvenient. I never thought to use my brush pens in this way I have always used them with water colors. Thank you
I use waterproof ink for the sketch and an ink/water mix in the brush. The problem I had with sketching with soluble ink is it's hard to get a light wash in detailed areas were you've used a lot of ink, the whole thing just smears and gets way darker than intended. Premixing in the water brush gives me more control and I can go back over an area to darken it once it dries.
I have to hand it to you. You took a fairly mundane photograph and really made it sing in your sketch! Love it.
Thank you so much, I’m glad you love the sketch!

Adding an ink wash is one of my favorite ways to add interesting tones and values to my sketches. Definitely give it a try!
@@thesketchbookchronicles Danke für Deine Antwort! Genau das machen wir!

Great drawing!
Thank you! Glad you like it!

Thanks, I’ll try it out!
Thanks for sharing. I am planning on starting. Could you share your materials you used?
Thank you.
That’s great! I used a Pentel waterbrush, a Sailor pen with a fude nib, a Hahnemuhle sketchbook, and the ink that came in the Sailor pen.
See if you can fill the "waterbrush" with isopropyl alcohol instead? It'll effectively act like alcohol markers, except using ink.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll try it out.
I use alcohol instead of water. Evaporates faster. So you keep the page a little less wet.
@@js_galeria Cool. Do the streaks come out similar?
@@js_galeria Does it destroy the brush?
