Love these projects! I had recently added the Pilot iro-utsushi to my art pens. Hoping it might work for this. It's a cross between fountain and dip pen, with a good nib that's very smooth and easy clean up.
I've got a decent handle on pens, but have continually struggled with the viscocity of the paint. I suppose I simply need practice, but it's just me here in my studio-- hoping to find a bit more community of artists (whether glass or not) in the coming year
Viscocity question: a) it doesn't flow but for about two lines. I add oil. Then it seems to not be opaque enough. Feels damned if I do, damned if I don't. 🤷♀️ Still struggling. Yours seemed perfect consistency from the get-go, hoping I figure it out eventually.
Ok try this - mix up a brand new batch of paint, 5ml of paint, 5 ml of lavender oil and 10ml of clove oil. Leave for 24 hours then try with your pens. Let me know how you get on 🙂
Another great demo Derek. I’m heading straight to Amazon now
