    Sketching with pen has always been so therapeutic to me because it makes me not focus on my mistakes as much and just finish the sketch!

      right? and if you find yourself focusing on the mistakes too much. You can also start over. but i would recommend seeing how far you can take it, first. something that will continue to improve with time! :D 💜

    Fun tip: if you’re especially anxious/indecisive like me, starting out with erasable pens and then going to actual pens can help a ton, while still helping you learn to draw lighter:)
    Edit:hey guys! The idea is to have the eraser there as a sort of emotional buffer. It’s not meant to replace actually using pens, but rather, help ease yourself into using pens by creating an emotional buffer of “if I *do* mess up, I still have the possibility to fix it”. I’m a bit of a perfectionist and this helped me still feel like I had the crutch of an eraser while still using a pen! I use non-erasable pens now, but I know the erasable ones were a good way to ease into it!:D Plus, it teaches you to draw lightly, because a lot of erasable pens won’t erase well unless you draw light! :D

      I actually am very anxious/indecisive, and using pen helped me with that. So I would say if you can manage to, absolutely do go for a permanent pen, might help you get over it a bit.

    A TIP FOR BALLPOINT: keep a paper towel or tissue and after a few minutes of sketching, wipe the tip on the tissue. This works for gel pens too since the ink builds up on one side of the pen as you go.

    • @brianng8350
      @brianng8350 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @brianng8350
      @brianng8350 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @louisvilletech7765 From my experience ink from rollerballs, fountain pens and other markers do not have the pressure sensitivity - it's all or nothing. But with a basic pen, I can use the side and lightly scratch things to leave lighter marks. So, I can create different shades like a pencil. And ball pens are so cheap compared to rollerballs and fountain pens.

    I like to sketch with two different colored pens for hue shifts and even darker tones when mixed. Pink and light blue is my favorite combination, but I can't say I've given other colors much of a chance since I like those colors together too much. I don't know if it works as well with other colors, but maybe it does.

      @@3kay3 I gave it a quick try because the colors look really nice together. So thank you for the suggestion!
      Here's what I found (for anyone who wants to try):
      Combining the two colors leads to a light almost salmon pink color. Which means you can't use both colors together for adding a sort of line art or a darker tone (which I usually like to do).
      I think it's still a fun combination but it's important not to sketch in yellow where you want the pink since it won't show as pink but the lighter salmon instead. Since the pink is the darkest tone of the three and it works best for contrast, you don't want to lose that. So planning ahead before hand is very important with this pen combo.
      Hope that helps anyone who wants to try or was curious!

    For pens, I love watching Hamrib Art do her sketches. I also started enjoying using colored pens and other cheap materials that I never thought I'll ever use for my art since I discovered her channel. I was literally about to give away most of my highlighters and waterbased markers since I rarely use them but now, they're some of my most used supplies!

    I doubt you’ll see this, but I just wanted to thank you again for making me start drawing again. This last month I’ve binged all your videos and have learned so much from you. I recently bought a box of those bic pens, and have been sketching with them. And I’ve been trying my hand at digital art as well. You’re an inspiration. I know you mostly draw girls, but watching you draw people in general is super helpful. Watching you break things down in basic shapes is exactly what my struggle was last time I used to draw. But now, it’s so much easier thanks to you.

    A good thing for when your drawings are feeling too stiff is to use ballpoint pens! Personally, it helps add a bit of randomness and can really release my creativity

    I started sketching in pen when I saw my friend do it so I was like “okay let’s sketch in pen!” At first I wasn’t really used to it because I kept making mistakes but it was a really nice feeling because the pens I used were really smooth on the paper. I have the bic pen and that one is really good haha thank you for this video !! 😁👍

    My first time to comment on Waffles. But I’m feeling you girls. Mentally, physically, it’s not easy in the here and now. I try hard to find the good things that stay the test of times, and Rin is one. She has cute expressive hands. Family and art keep me hopeful. All you really need is a pencil or pen, and some paper. G Tucson, and Maria Morris your in my thoughts and I hope for the best for you. A little side note. My 44 year old son got COVID 3 weeks ago. It was bad, and I think the doctors were ready for the worst. We got a phone call from him today. Too much to put into words, but he is going to be ok. I am giving thanks today. I hope the best for my TH-cam buddies. Good bye for today. I’ll look for you on Waffles in the comments. Robin

    Every time I watch your videos I get so inspired! I often find myself attempting to draw things or do challenges that I’ve recently watched you do and I want to thank you for that! Without you, I probably wouldn’t have ventured out into the vast world of drawing animals and non-human things. Although I don’t draw them as often as I used to, I still thank you for aiding me on my art journey. Thank you, Rin!

    The struggle is real when it comes to smudges! 😂 I usually use Sakura Pigma Pens, which dry quite fast, but when I try to draw a straight line with them, using a ruler, I have to be veeery careful how I lift the ruler, otherwise they'll ruin my "perfect" lines. 🙄😆 Anyway, great video, thanks for the tips!
