Came for the plotting. Stayed for the Morcheeba and plotting.
This was a great video 🍻
New drawing idea, black paper, silver pen, the moon, gold pen for highlights from the sun, lay down some more baby making music over it coupled with some nice shots, boom 😎
Incredible!!
bro ur out there killin it!
Thanks!
Great music choice - lovely as always!
Beautiful video Dan! and drawing :)
Thanks for the video! Could you tell the web software at the beginning for your generations?
I love that!! Great video and audio combination.
Thank you 😁
You would have to set it up to pull because you would destroy the nib if it was bidirectional.
I've noticed in quite a few of these rhat the pathing the machine takes is wildly inefficient, there's a lot of arm movement across the print for a tiny dot then back across for another. I'd be curious to see the speed inprovements if these paths were better optimized.
Yeah, you can get some good optimisation that can sometimes dramatically speed up the plot. There are a few times you don't want to do that, for example using fiber nips on pens, as the nib wears down you often want it to happen in the original draw order, if the pen goes back to fill in lines later on it can look a bit odd.
In this case with the fountain pen optimising would totally have been the way to go 😁
What type of pen are you using?
This is a TWSBI Eco fountain pen, amazing pens I love them.
@@revdancatt May I ask what is the thickness of the nib?
Do you sell these pieces ?
I do sometimes, but I'm still moving my shipping stuff over from the old studio to the new one. Once all that's sorted then I'll fire it back up again and pop things like this into it.
Stupid question: why not simply print the image?
Reasonable question, here's some of the reasons.
You can use paper that you can't normally put through a printer, both in type, colour and size of paper, in this case Saunders Waterford 300gsm cream 1/2 imperial paper. But also heavily textured paper, and sometimes I use handmade paper.
If you watch this video: th-cam.com/video/gi18_pCUAtY/w-d-xo.html you'll see silver and gold metallic pens on black paper.
You can use all sorts of inks, here's I'm using fountain pen ink, but I've also used custom blended ink, white ink, metallic ink, watercolour paints, and so on. The way the ink interacts with both the paper and itself is often unique.
You can also use various pens, including brushed and even an inscribing point to etch copper plates.
In this particular case I'm using blue fountain pen ink on cream paper. How pen ink looks on paper is very different to print from printers.
I agree though that there are some things that are better done with printers, some with screen printing (for example) and some with a pen plotter.
@@revdancatt Thanks for the considerate reply! I'm learning a lot.
No worries, any time.
Also the plot has a more "human" feel than a direct print. Using a fountain pen to apply ink to paper results in a subtly in the lines that you just would not get in a colour laser or even dyes sublimation print.
