Hi Rometiklan! Thank you for the kind words, my friend. The Aquash Brush pen that you see me using in the video is my favorite. I've tried all the other brush pens out there and they all work well. I just this Aquash Brush pen because it doesn't cost as much to replace and very little maintenance. Other brushes such as Windsor & Newton or Raphael, when I'm done inking, I would need to wash, shampoo, and condition. This brush I use, I don't even need to clean. I just keep using it over and over. Also, the Pentel, Micron, Faber-Castell, and Tombow brushes are also good for when I'm traveling or doing commissions at comic book conventions. I won't have to carry bottle of ink with me and these brush pens can do the job just as quick. Sometimes they'll run out of ink, but you can still continue using them by dipping it into ink. There ARE other brush pens where the 'brush' isn't really a brush with hairs. They're more like a foam or felt that's shaped like a brush. They can be good for the beginning of it's use, but after a while, that sharp tip disappears. When that happens, that brush pen is only good for spotting big ink areas. Hope that answers your question, Rometiklan! Thank you for all your support, my friend. Stay safe and be well!

I always wipe the edge of my ruler with a tissue with some Windex on it. Because if you don't it will smear your panel boarder lines! I also always have a piece of paper underneath my hand while I'm inking. So that you don't smear the ink all over the your drawing!

@WaldenWongArt

2 жыл бұрын

Hi Loring Bush. Thank you for watching my video. I’ve seen other artist use windex to clean off their ruler to ink so the ink doesn’t smear on the paper. What I do is I’ll attach coins underneath the ruler to give it a beveled edge. To make the ruler raised up slightly. So if ink does attached itself to the ruler, it still won’t touch the paper as it’s now levitated. When I ink, I mentally keep track of where I last inked and making sure my hands stay away from the inked area so I don’t accidentally smudge the ink. Ink usual drys in less than a minute and it won’t smear afterward. Especially waterproof India ink. Now if I were to use some kind of non waterproof ink or a ball point pen ink, those ink is going to smear and I would use a paper to separate my hand from the inked area. Which is why I prefer using waterproof inking ink. Those won’t smear when dried

Wonderful video I have watched a dozen times. Ready to try on some of my drawings but have a stupid question. What are you using to clean the ink from your brushes and pens?

@WaldenWongArt

Жыл бұрын

Hi Alex. Thank joy for watching my video. That’s not a stupid question at all. I rarely clean my brushes. I just leave the ink there on the brush for months sometimes. And if brush tips every gets stiff from the ink, I just swish the brush into a bottle of water for a few seconds, press down on it to crack that stiffness, and I’m off to inking again. There’s really no need to clean these Aquash Pentel Brush pens as their made of nylon. As for the quill pens, I’ll just used a rag to wipe it clean and dry. Never used water and that will make your quill nibs rust instantly. The only pens I do need to clean are the Rapidograph KoKinoor technical pens. And here’s my video on how I do that. kzread.info/dash/bejne/e41nz9mzmMqefbg.html Thank you again for watching my video and don’t forget to subscribe if you haven’t already.

Do you only dip the aquash brush and not use the reservoir? Just clean with water when done?

@WaldenWongArt

4 жыл бұрын

Hi Myron Mielke! I only dip the aquash brush and not used the reservior. You may have see some of my other videos where I HAVE filled the reservoir. And I fill those ones where the brushes because the brush tips are not sharp anymore. I'll use those to fill in large ink areas. I also get asked that same question about cleaning when done. I don't wash them clean as often as they are nylon brushes. The Aquash Brush is just like those other brushes in the market where they have pre-filled ink in the reservoir. When artist use THOSE brush, they never clean them. They just keep using them over and over again until they're all out of ink. If they were to clean them after every use, that would mess up the ink inside the reservoir. And you're able to use that brush over and over without cleaning. That's why I love using this brush. Once in a LONG while, I will give the Aquash brush a few swirls in the water. That's when the ink is dried out on the brush tips on non usage. But I usually ink everyday it there's no chance of it getting dried out. Other than that, I just ink, put brush away, and come back later to continue inking. Hope that answers your question. Thank you for watching and please subscribe if you haven't done so already. More videos coming soon!
