ballpoint pens are amazing, we all have them, mostly used for writting :) but damn do they hold some real power, I love them because they are closest to drawing pencils in terms of how flexible they are to the pressure and angle, fineliners and inking is so stiff in comparison. But I can see why so few artist use them for comics and stuff, to make really great shading/value changes with them, it takes alot of practice, and even when mastered it takes alot of time to make quality art with them :)

[@_mikeysart_]

Everything you said is so true. Pens are extremely underrated as an art tool

I've developed a preference for drawing with red pen instead of pencil over the last five or seven years.

[@Nihonium7]

Your secret is certainly patience more than anything else, I commend and envy that at the same time! I draw/paint with any and all mediums I can find, but I go into way too much detail and get lost, so patience is my worst ennemy every time.
I can easily spend 20-30 hours on a A3 size portrait with only graphite, and then I'll have a phase of several months without drawing because it exhausted my patience completely...

[@_mikeysart_]

@@Nihonium7 I can relate to how you’re feeling. Back in 2019, I’ll draw for like 20+ hours then take a one month break. I had to force myself to keep drawing after completing a long project

[@avigail5356]

Amazing work! Really. I didn’t even know it was possible to get photo realism with a ball point pen. Just one question, how do you avoid ink boogers? I’ve tried it, and after a while it seems like the pen leaks, do you wipe the tip out every once in a while?

[@_mikeysart_]

@@avigail5356 I use a scratch sheet of paper to scribble the pen on every now and then while I draw. This gets rid of the ink build up on the pen

[@avigail5356]

I have a question like why blue why not black or colors i'm ballpoint pen artist too and i never thought to draw with only blue one have tried drawin with color ballpoint pens before!?

[@_mikeysart_]

I like how vibrant yet cool the blue gives my portraits.

[@ObedKirongozi]

Me, I prefer to draw in black, because I love black and white colour they are so good together 🤌,but blue give such an other energy to the drawing that I can't even explain 😮
