Really enjoyed this video. Appreciate hearing your instruction, not the music. Really useful tips like taking ink off the nib with a brush. I’ve noticed you use both waterproof + non waterproof inks. I would appreciate hearing your thought process about deciding which to use. I enjoy hearing how you think haha.

I really should not buy any more stuff, but I'm quite curious to try the dip pen. I love the way you showed us how to recover by taking the ink off with the brush. I feel like your intuition about shadows and light/dark is just so well developed and practiced you might underestimate how difficult it is for beginners. Something you cannot teach in a video I guess. Lovely vid.

A step back to show that with minimal tools just about anyone can start on their art journey. An inspiration to many Martin:-)

Excellent , beautiful work . Many thanks for this wonderful tutorial Martin . We appreciate it from down under AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

Always LOVE your videos. . .cannot wait for the one on how you do people. 🤩

Dear Mr Martin thank you so much for this wonderful video and your support of others Really enjoyed your work Greetings from Ky, USA

Great post Martin, I'm definitely going to try that liquid charcoal. 😊 I've already got some dip pen nibs to try. 🎉

Thank you. Learned a lot.

Another wonderful video, thank you for sharing. I really do enjoy your style.

I am excited for the next one with the fountain pens! Also, may I suggest you try Lunar Black watercolor from Daniel Smith for some of your fills... it granulates beautifully and would fit really well with your style.

Excellent video....thanks for making it!!

Thank You for this awesome video. :). I'm using dirt cheap Jinhao 82 fountain pen with fude nib and black semi waterproof Koh-I-Noor document ink (also "cheap as barszcz" 😁). This ink is interesting - it gives beautiful blue/green trail under wet brush. Also it's mixing nice, but a little unpredictable way with watercolor... :)

I may have some dip nibs from my grandmother stashed somewhere in my art supplies. I guess using antique nibs is ok. I got India ink recently as a gift now I'm trying to figure out how to use it. So splatters are acceptable ? You can just leave them?

Great video and great sketch! Is that nib holder available on Amazon?

Bitte, wo kaufst du deine Sachen? Bei Gerstaecker kosten alleine die Federn 8,27 €. Bin offen für neue Bezugsquellen, die Sachen werden mir schön langsam zu teuer.

nib size?

Thanks a lot for this video🙏💛💙
