Hello any daily exercise/practice what should we do so our inking and control hand is better plss(especially labtop tablet im so fuckin sucks at it like my line art so shitty pls help)
My new job as a tour guide in the gallery and your videos are what motivated me to start taking drawing seriously! Like a sir :) I also started learning german ro watch your other channel Thank you very much for everything!
I do agree that dip pens are difficult to use. It has a huge learning curve. It took me a year to actually started get used to it. . . . No pressure on the last part. I might just be a slow learner. Who knows, you might get used to dip pens few months after starting it. But, the learning curve is true, so keep that in mind.
honestly for me dip pens don't really seem that hard to control, for me at least. if you have the right pressure and angle you can use them fairly easily, and dipping is the only annoying part along with the risk of leakage
Marcel thank you so much for all the hard work you put into these videos, besides being an amazing teacher you're also insanely entertaining, don't ever stop making videos, you are an absolute inspiration
THANK YOU MR.MARCEL JUST LIKE YOU I ALSO LOVE INKING AND THIS IS THE VIDEO THAT I BEEN WAITING FOR, ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS HELP ME A LOT IN MY DRAWING JOURNEY I EVEN CREATED MY OWN FAN MANGA AND SOON I WILL CREATE MY OWN YT CHANNEL THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO 🙏🙏👍👍🇵🇭
I've learnt all about inking sketches before but it's not bad to learn new tips from Marcel. The next time I start inking my comics, I'll be confident with this knowledge!!💫👌🏾
Mannn it's been almost 2 years since I subcribed to you and ever since that my art has improved a lot. My hobbies were art and music but art was something I enjoyed more. Now because of him my art skills and experiences has enhanced even further. (Love your channel and all the tutorials u created which helped out a lot...)
I was so happy when I saw another video! Thank you so much! I've been working with liners for a few years, and have just started getting interested in using real ink... This was EXACTLY what I needed
I have a good amount of dip pens from my father, who had a collection of them. But I mostly draw on my bed, so I can’t use them much. Instead, I have two fountain pens from FIVE BELOW, which are the kind that come with ink cartridges you put inside. It’s was 5$, and it was a pack of two with a good amount of ink, so I got it. They also are less messy, and I no longer have the risk of spilling ink all of my carpeted room
Pro (amateur) tip: if the paper you want to transfer your sketch to is too thick for light to pass through and allow tracing, you can rub charcoal or a soft graphite pencil on the back of the sketch, put it on top of the other paper, and go over your lines, applying firm pressure. And just like a carbon copy, you’ll transfer the image to your paper. It tends to smudge and you have to clean up the lines afterword, but it does work.
From start to finish, I just can't stop watching, and made me laugh at jokes. Although it is not totally relevant to the tutorial, but what is the title of the song playing at the intro? The plucking really sound good I want to hear the full song...
Sir can you make a video on how to draw character on the back like in Anime manga Like the they are not that detailed yet they still look good if you don't understand what i mean you can see in Anime manga
I am not sure of liners are really the cheapest method. they have tendency to dry out and top writing much faster than any other ink medium, so you have to buy of them and the costs stack up fast. especially if you are going for stuff that's light fast and archival. brushes and dip pens might be more expensive at the start in the long run but when proper cared for and nibs are not that expensive either and can be bought in bulk(....brushes can be expensive though...like good brushes. Ink can also be bought in bulk and if you going for years of use... it's way cheaper than buying liners. In my opinion the biggest pro of the liner is the portability. Like... if you want to draw a lot on the go, like in the train or during your lunch break taking a glass of ink with you is not ideal. they also have the advantage that are easier to learn how to control and you can get them in different sizes so you have a certain consistency in line-width, which can be good for longer-going works like comics. they are also dryer than other ink alternatives and thus using cheaper, thinner paper is less likely to ruin your drawing with bleeding. Liners are a good choice, but they are not necessarily the cheapest, if you can splurge a little more at the beginning, you might be able to safe some and be less dependent of the art store still stocking your favourite pen. If you want portability but more dynamic in your line width a brush pen might be a good choice. those have a steep learning curve though. it takes practise to control the swish. The classics would be the kuretake brush pen (I like the one with vermillion) or the pentel brush pen (I thinkkk that's the one kim jung gi used?). the pentel one works with ink cartridges. which... those are expensive. I haven't tried filling it up with bottled ink, but if you do so I'd go for fountain pen ink not drawing ink meant for dip pen. the bigger particles it will clog up the pen. another portable inking tool would be the fountain pen. You can get a bit of a swish but most modern fountain pens are pretty set in their line width. they can get pretty expensive but you can get also some pretty affordable ones. the cheaper ones are usually meant for cartridges, so you either have to fill the cartridges with fountain pen ink with a syringe or you get a converter. thicker lines take longer to dry so if you want to work fast or even use water colour with it, go for a pen with a thinner nib . these take a bit of time to get use to it but they are easier to control than a G-pen nib for example because they are stiffer. You can get different nibs for your pens, like fude nibs, broad nibs and they can be fun to get more variety but they will be more expensive, so maybe wait with stuff like that until you know you actually like working with it. right now my main pen for daily drawing is the platinum preppy in extra fine which was around 10€ and a bottle of platinum carbon ink. I prefer the platinum ink over noodler's bullet proof ink because is reliably smudge and water resistant. i think that pen would also be a good main work tool for comics. though I'd maybe use it together with a brush (or brush pen) to create more variation in the lines.
Well... the thing is inks and dip pens are soooo expensive in my country. It's 80 TL ( which is 4,56 $ but 1$ is 17,55 TL ) and 80 TL is the cheapest I found....
dip pens... expensive? tl;dr: cheaper than any other kind of inking device, at least if you're in the US. also, so fun that it doesn't matter. there's also thousands of colored inks. I was going through probably 4-5 ballpoint pens a year. a decent pack of 2-3 costs a few bucks. so I decided to try dip pens. I paid $8 for a handle, $4 for a pack of 10 nibs (the G nibs), and $5 for 60ml black ink that, despite my heavy usage in messing around with it, doing art with it, and writing with it this first quarter of the year, I haven't even reached close to using up half of. hard to use?... yeah, lol. didn't think I'd have to learn how to use it correctly and I still find myself wondering "did I mess up or is it broken?" at times. there's certainly a skill you have to get down. the best place for in-store nibs in the US is Hobby Lobby, and by "best" I mean most available across the country. sadly, their nibs kinda suck. but the shipping from jetpens was extremely fast and I live in a rural area.
