I Got a New Pen!

Normally I use a brush or dip pen when I am drawing. I like brushes because they are so expressive. You can get really thin lines or really fat lines. You can get smooth lines and angry lines. The same is true for dip pens only on a smaller scale (depending on the nib you use, of course)(I usually use a Hunt 102).

I just felt like drawing with something else recently, so I picked up a .60 Rapidograph. It doesn't have anywhere near the flexibility of a brush or dip pen. It makes perfect uniform lines.

And it's a lot of fun.




And also fun is reading this much good stuff about myself (I'm reposting this from the Priorities comments box). I'm kind of floored.
