I love my glass dip pen! I use it primarily for calligraphy and occasionally for inking thinks that aren’t going to be colored; and for the “oh, that’s a very unique tool” from my art professor 😂
@@cat-hx1sh i don't know the brand, as the box is entirely in Japanese. (it was a gift from my father.) to my knowledge, it's just a generic glass dip pen, like if you go to amazon and just search "glass dip pen". mine, personally, is clear with black and silver inside.
As a kid my dad had a bunch of calligraphy pens on his desk and I always thought they were the coolest thing not knowing what they were.. just that they made the nicest lines.
MaggieBear Mhm, I know that too well. My mom used to have this weird, big, pink pen. But it used water instead of ink to draw, and it always seemed to refill by itself
Definitely. His go to ones are more marker so it has a slight streakiness to it, but since the glass is so solid and the ink is fresh it's a lot more solid black
Caligraphy ink is thicker than drawing ink. I also think that drawing ink in general does not need to be that dark, because most artists reproduce their art (like in comic books), and the whole process of digitalizing, editing and printing is going to change the tones anyway
When drawing with the ink dip pen, you have the advantage of being able to spread the inks to give shading and changing the intensity of the colour by using a water brush to move the ink about. Yes you can do the same with non permanent pens, but the ink is much easier and fades much better!
@@irabbit_ I think comparing a glass pen to other types of pens is totally fair. He is comparing them as a tool for drawing, keeping it simple. Saying this tool for drawing shouldn't be compared against other tools for drawing seems unfair, and wanting to compare it only to other types in it's subclass of "ink pens" seems kind of bias. It's like saying you can't compare an apple and an orange because they are very different tasting and looking. But, they are both fruits. It's the same with ink pens and other pens. He isn't here to compare apples to apples like some apple expert. That is an elitists review, someone who is willing to compare two of the same thing against each other. This is more of a casual and fair review, and I prefer this point of view and comparison style because it's way more relatable to someone who isn't, let's say, an ink pen elitist
As a lettering artist for over 40 years, may I offer some thoughts. I don't own one of these pens so I speak at a disadvantage. I have a huge collection of calligraphy dip pens and nibs. And I also do a lot of drawing with a wide variety of pens. Including the brush marker you use in the video. The pen looks like it is best suited for lettering not drawing. The little glass jar is likely to be used for water to rinse off the nib. I would be using the dropper to drop ink onto top of the nib for it to flow down to the tip. No professional lettering artist I know dips the pen directly into the bottle of ink. If you own one, try dropping a drop of a different colour when your ink is partially done. You will be pleased with the results of mixing colours.....start with one colour, have a mix of two and end with another colour. And let the ink dry at least overnight before you erase pencil guidelines. I have couple of videos on TH-cam on beginner lessons on Italic lettering font as well as videos of my colouring book for adults.....so you can see that I do speak from experience.
Well as I can see in these days, young have discovered "Lettering" recently, I am a 53 old now and used to be a hand lettering artist since my 14's to about 30, them I can understand why so many surprised people around here. Your comment was exactly what I was thinking to write. So now I don't have to.
Yeah I think it may have had more in some places and he needed to wait more until it dried. Like the eyes when he filled them totally in, they smeared the most so I think they just needed more time to dry than most of the lines.
Ok hear me out, color changing lights distort the colors in the room, Jazz a should get color changing lights in a dark space (no other light sources) and he should do a drawing with the color distortion

I will say the black ink in the “antagonist” is quite solid and beautiful, so I think maybe the ink medium is used so you don’t see as many strokes when it comes to solid patches of color in drawings. It is quite shiny and pretty too! *wow thank you everyone for the likes, I’ve never had this many and I feel special. 💘

Everything about this review makes me happy. I've been playing with liquid ink for decades, so of course there is a glass pen on my desk. Mostly used to put new ink on multiple kinds of paper quickly so I know how I want to use it. The inkwell is for water to rinse.

That dude is literally ripped! On another note: I've been wanting to purchase glass sp pens cir a while, so it's good to know about the feeling of it scratching against thr paper. I guess if I do, it'll be just for collecting.
Yes, they can be scratchy, but you can affect that. The way the tip is ground is going to affect the feel against the paper, and you can polish the tip a bit for a smoother writing experience.
Okay, so first, a disclaimer. I'm new to the whole art thing, and I'm pretty exclusive with watercolors and India inks. But I like to experiment with a lot of different marking tools, and recently picked up a glass dip pen to play with. So here's what I've learned with it so far: 1. You can get different line weights by varying the angle at which you hold the pen. You can't vary as much as you can with a metal nib calligraphy pen, but you can cover pretty much every line weight you can get with a Micron pen. 2. The inks that come with these dip pens are often beautiful for calligraphy, but suck in other applications because of exactly what you discovered. They smudge under an eraser. BUT, you can use them with almost any liquid medium! I use mine with liquid watercolors and India inks. India inks would solve the smudging problem with your style, providing you let it dry completely. And with watercolor, you generally don't want to use an eraser anyway, and you're using the pen more like you would a very fine rigger brush. You can even use pan or tube watercolors, not just liquid watercolors, by using a brush to paint the spirals on the pen tip instead of dipping. 3. With watercolor, these pens are fantastic for adding fine lines and detail. For super fine lines, they work better than a rigger, and if you go wet on wet or wet on damp, you can get a blend effect that's sometimes nicer (and very different) than what you get with a brush. One thing I've found them to be an excellent tool for is to use them dry, on wet watercolor, to drag or scratch things like blades of grass or ropes or other similarly textured things that are harder to get with a brush. I'm really enjoying the pen for watercolor and India ink. It's not something that would replace my fine brushes or pens, but is a useful addition that can do things you can't with other tools.
I hadn’t considered using watercolors with these! That’s really cool and I’m gonna have to go try that with my set. (I haven’t even tried all the ink colors that came with mine, got a set with two glass pens and half a dozen colors and I’ve only opened half of them and haven’t even tried the second pen yet.)
I'd like to see maybe the Glass Pen make a comeback with maybe some more known inks. I love the Windsor and Newton ones and used them on the last Inktober but maybe the drying/smudging could be more controlled with a better more artist aimed ink?
I'm so surprised that he didn't try to pipette two different inks on the pen, on either side of it, or one color higher and another lower, to acheive a gradual mix of colors. Just like the thumbnail.
I might look into this. I like the aesthetic and feel of working with flowing ink - plenty of happy accidents that bring the piece to life. I can see the glass as being quite good for sketching in sepia tones.
I hope you've given it a try by now! Glass pens are a really unique experience. Every one is slightly different, because the way the tip is ground affects how smoothly it writes and how the ink flows. I love mine, but even the ones that are mass-produced have their own personality.
You could look at some of the things peter draws does, the glass pen means you can do cool stuff with glow in the dark ink and probably other weird inks you don't usually get in pens, it looks awesome
I don't have near you're artistic abilities, but I do love pens and love to draw. That glass pen looks like it might be a little bit difficult at first but if you used it for a week straight you might be amazed at how versatile it is? Keep up the cool and good work.
LET'S VOTE! How long until Jazza breaks the glass pen? a) less than 2 days; b) in the first week; c) ... aaaand it's already broken. ### Results after 70 replys: a) 8 b) 25 c) 27
Wow I LOVE that final drawing! It has a traditional comic book feel, I duno I really really like the look of the lines and how deep the filled in areas pop!
Hey jazza. I've wanted one of these for a long time. Yesterday, my aunt ordered one of these for me. Today, you uploaded this video. That is what you call destiny. Thanks mate.

I'm heavy handed too. Many a fine liner have been destroyed due to my angry drawing. That erasing issue is also devastating. Watching your videos has shown me that a lot of the 'mistakes' I have made in my drawing was a learning process. I appreciate that
Get in contact with Peter Draws! He does a ton of artwork with glass dip pens! You could probably get a lot of pointers and advice from him and you could come back and revisit this idea. Or even challenge the master and do a big collage with Peter! I would love to see something like that!
If I had this I will be like: Me, a messy artist: *works on my art* My materials: *messily positioned on my table* Glass pen: *rolls out of the the table and falls* Glass pen: *breaks* Me: oh sh-
Banana Cupcakez that’s why it had that thing with it that you can place it on. You know the thing Jazza never really showed or talked about. It looked like to circles hanging together. 😊
i have one and i kinda wait for it to fall down but i also hope it doesn't because it's 1. really pretty 2. probably handmade and 3. i spend 12€ (i live in germany) wich isn't that much but i bought it on christmas market so i would need to order one online instead of going to a shop since there aren't any shops with glass pens near
I have a glass pen. I don't know if anyone already mentioned but you can control the ink flow a bit depending on what angle the tip is in relation to the paper. Hope you had fun playing with it. I find the shimmery inks can get caught up in te grooves more then the non shimmery kind. You can use reg calligraphy ink with it and the matte kind is best for sketch. This is what I learned through trial and error.
For the full art with this: Every time the pen runs out he has to switch to a different color ink and complete the whole drawing like that
But he has to continue from where he left off, he can't go to another section when he runs out of ink

That dude is literally ripped! On another note: I've been wanting to purchase glass sp pens cir a while, so it's good to know about the feeling of it scratching against thr paper. I guess if I do, it'll be just for collecting.
Yes, they can be scratchy, but you can affect that. The way the tip is ground is going to affect the feel against the paper, and you can polish the tip a bit for a smoother writing experience.
Okay, so first, a disclaimer. I'm new to the whole art thing, and I'm pretty exclusive with watercolors and India inks. But I like to experiment with a lot of different marking tools, and recently picked up a glass dip pen to play with. So here's what I've learned with it so far:
1. You can get different line weights by varying the angle at which you hold the pen. You can't vary as much as you can with a metal nib calligraphy pen, but you can cover pretty much every line weight you can get with a Micron pen.
2. The inks that come with these dip pens are often beautiful for calligraphy, but suck in other applications because of exactly what you discovered. They smudge under an eraser. BUT, you can use them with almost any liquid medium! I use mine with liquid watercolors and India inks. India inks would solve the smudging problem with your style, providing you let it dry completely. And with watercolor, you generally don't want to use an eraser anyway, and you're using the pen more like you would a very fine rigger brush. You can even use pan or tube watercolors, not just liquid watercolors, by using a brush to paint the spirals on the pen tip instead of dipping.
3. With watercolor, these pens are fantastic for adding fine lines and detail. For super fine lines, they work better than a rigger, and if you go wet on wet or wet on damp, you can get a blend effect that's sometimes nicer (and very different) than what you get with a brush. One thing I've found them to be an excellent tool for is to use them dry, on wet watercolor, to drag or scratch things like blades of grass or ropes or other similarly textured things that are harder to get with a brush.
I'm really enjoying the pen for watercolor and India ink. It's not something that would replace my fine brushes or pens, but is a useful addition that can do things you can't with other tools.
A year late, but i must add, these can take up to two days (or more) to cure!! thats why i may not always do well with erasing
I hadn’t considered using watercolors with these! That’s really cool and I’m gonna have to go try that with my set. (I haven’t even tried all the ink colors that came with mine, got a set with two glass pens and half a dozen colors and I’ve only opened half of them and haven’t even tried the second pen yet.)
I love India inks (and acrylic inks) and watercolor. I just started playing around with India inks recently. Idk why, but they're so satisfying 😌
I'd like to see maybe the Glass Pen make a comeback with maybe some more known inks. I love the Windsor and Newton ones and used them on the last Inktober but maybe the drying/smudging could be more controlled with a better more artist aimed ink?
I did pretty good with the bombay black India ink! I love glass dip pens.
Do not disobey the African ostrich
I'm so surprised that he didn't try to pipette two different inks on the pen, on either side of it, or one color higher and another lower, to acheive a gradual mix of colors. Just like the thumbnail.
I might look into this. I like the aesthetic and feel of working with flowing ink - plenty of happy accidents that bring the piece to life. I can see the glass as being quite good for sketching in sepia tones.
I hope you've given it a try by now! Glass pens are a really unique experience. Every one is slightly different, because the way the tip is ground affects how smoothly it writes and how the ink flows. I love mine, but even the ones that are mass-produced have their own personality.

**Smudges ink**
Also Jazza: Proceeds to continue erasing.
You could look at some of the things peter draws does, the glass pen means you can do cool stuff with glow in the dark ink and probably other weird inks you don't usually get in pens, it looks awesome

I don't have near you're artistic abilities, but I do love pens and love to draw. That glass pen looks like it might be a little bit difficult at first but if you used it for a week straight you might be amazed at how versatile it is? Keep up the cool and good work.

The face-off is perfect. The left guy looks like he's thinking "what the hell happened to you?"

I'm heavy handed too. Many a fine liner have been destroyed due to my angry drawing.
That erasing issue is also devastating. Watching your videos has shown me that a lot of the 'mistakes' I have made in my drawing was a learning process. I appreciate that

Get in contact with Peter Draws! He does a ton of artwork with glass dip pens! You could probably get a lot of pointers and advice from him and you could come back and revisit this idea. Or even challenge the master and do a big collage with Peter! I would love to see something like that!

I have a glass pen. I don't know if anyone already mentioned but you can control the ink flow a bit depending on what angle the tip is in relation to the paper.
Hope you had fun playing with it. I find the shimmery inks can get caught up in te grooves more then the non shimmery kind. You can use reg calligraphy ink with it and the matte kind is best for sketch. This is what I learned through trial and error.
