thanks for the mentioning the lamy accent. that is a model you dont normally see in the online shops so it flew under the radar for me. It has an interesting design where you can swap out the grips and it has that sleek modern design AND it has screw cap so it has potential to be pen for life. But lmao at that price tag. They cannot be serious with that. It costs more than lamy 2000!

I have this romantic idea of buying a pen and drawing with it for the rest of my life. I think i will buy a few of my current candidates and see for myself which feels the best in the hand + on the paper.
>Kaweco Special Brass
has that octagonal shape like pencils so it wont roll on table, which really annoys me with my current noname pens. exotic material and kaweco really makes WRITING things, the nib and feed is screw in so you dont damage it during cleaning or replacing
>Monterverde Ritma
Basic cylinder pen, but with magnetic cap and is very thick so hopefully it will be comfortable to hold. Again takes standards nibs and international cartridge's like kaweco so you know its made for writing and easy service or spare parts
>Lamy Aion
And lastly i am looking at that cigar shape, because in practice you cannot know for sure if your ideal grip is 12 or 11 or 11.7mm, so in theory with tapered shape your hand will find its own ideal diameter. But lamy uses its own nibs and its own cartridge's, so i asked if there isnt similar pen from diff brand. Like for example Cross ATX Matte Chrome also has that shape, but its grip is polished chrome so grip will be ass. And on top of it it has section bump yet the cap is not threaded so it will get loose over time. And it is thin. I already have thin pencils and ballpoint pens and old chinese pens (parker 51 knockoffs) after my ancestors at home. Fuck thin pens.

Maybe this is foolish idea and the meta is to buy faber castel grip or the platinum preppy or twisbi eco and when it falls apart like all cheap plastic does buy the new one.

>>7304813
Brass feels icky after a while and makes your hands stink. It gets disgusting with tarnish over years too. Most brass has some amount of lead in it as well, dunno if I'd want to write with that.
>>
>>7303557
I'm using the carbon ink because I'm sketching in site with the fountain pen and adding watercolor after, and that's the ink I saw recomended online, also for some reason the noodler's inks are very expensive to import into my euro country.

I was using a 300€ montblanc (I inherited it) with ef nib before buying a couple of preppys and the only difference is that the montblanc slides slightly easier over the paper, but they are new so it'll probably change.

that is a protentional problem, yes. still i am curious if heavier pen wont feel better than the lightweights. plus the patina should make the grip extra anti slippery. If i will end up liking the general shape, there are quite a few hexagonal pens on the market, or i can even order the same pen from caweko, but in aluminium. Or the painted version where brass is not in direct contact with skin.

>>7305220
try to get your hands on metal polishing creams or micro meshes (sand paper on steroids) intended for finishing metal machinery pieces (like 3D printer or CNC) and then very gently "Write" on it with your preppy nibs. With a bit of luck your preppy will start to feel just as smooth as the montblanc.

This is another part i like about fountain pens: you can fine tune them to your liking. You can even tune the ink flow where you use thin sharp knife to deepen the ink channel in the plastic feed.

>>7305220
>montblanc slides slightly easier over the paper, but they are new so it'll probably change.
Use them regularly and they'll get smoother.
Preppys and kakunos are they best fountain pens for drawing/sketching below 200£$€, above that you have the first flexible nibs (pilot falcon pe) but drawing in site they're not practical because the nibs are too sensitive, and at home you're better with dip pens.

Do not underestimate the power of the chalkboard, anons. It’s like an infinite piece of paper.

I mean this seriously when I say the chalkboard has completely transformed my art. I started doing it once I saw will Weston’s anatomy studies and demonstrations mostly in chalk, and how he said “it’s about the amount of bodies you draw”, not the quality of each one. I now see why: the chalk board is the perfect anti perfectionism tool. Nothing you draw on it matters, causing you to become less attached to the result and more to the process. You can use it to warm up, take notes while you draw, or just plan. The various colors can be helpful for differentiating body parts during anatomy studies, learning color combinations, simple and complex rendering techniques, any general experimenting. The chalkboard is probably one of the most important tools for trad artists especially and im sure digital artists could find a place for it as well

Previous Thread: >>7196009

This is a thread for those who want to go study dynamic sketching as a group in an effort to improve their drawing skills starting from the very fundamentals. Here we share the tedious grind, crit and encourage each other.
Please specify the week and course you're on when posting your work.

>What is Dynamic Sketching?
The Dynamic Sketching is an approach to sketching that focuses on:
>Closely observing life to inspire sketches.
>Breaking down complex objects into simple forms.
>Building confidence using permanent mediums like pen and toned paper.
>The importance of conveying ideas visually.
This method helps artists create expressive and energetic sketches.

First developed by Norman Schureman, an influential teacher at ArtCenter. Many of his students, including Peter Han and Charles Hu, continued his teachings at various schools.

part 1 of drawing all plants at home.
first plant is the one that defeated me previously here >>7295854
the tip of the other anon was incredibly helpful in general, observing the plant more thoroughly and doing multiple sketches of details before starting.
started using copic markers (sketching greys) , they are a lot easier to cover big areas than the staedtler fineliners.

part 3
will probably not make it in time before the leaves start falling. Not that it matters, I like drawing plants that are more beat up like I did today.
The texturing on the big on on the 2 leaves closest by made it look worse. Probably should've taken a thinner one than the 0.3 mm used for all the rest, or textured it less (only on the part of the leaf closest by.
