Fountain Pen Ink Colorama (In Sketches)

[Andrew_L]

Hi everybody!

I'm not sure: is my topic needs an individual topic, but I did not find where I can put it. I am interested in fountain pens not so long ago, but I already have a lot of test sketches made with different inks. I combined them into one big post, in which you can visually compare colors and shades. There are both thin and thick lines, overlays in hatching and more others(I think:)).

For the first impression I think is suitable.

Just fabulous!!!

 

Confession: I'm so taken with your artwork I honestly don't pay much attention to the ink.

[Andrew_L]

Thanks!
I also did not pay much attention to ink before, I just used different ones so it was not boring .

[Michael R.]

Wow!

Very nice :-)

 

Cheers

Your work on the art thread is stunning. Thank you so much for collatiingthese and sharing them with us. I've no doubt that it will be a constant source of reference for many here.

 

[Andrew_L]

Thank you!

Maybe, some day, it will be something more interests with good scans and correct color, but now this is for preliminary evaluation (like or unlike these colors or tones) .

[Arcadian]

Wow, they're beautiful! Very impressed by your skill!

Thanks to everyone who looked and wrote comments!

I spent a lot of time and corrected the tags of my old posts. Now, if you want to see more ink examples than are presented in this big post, simply click on the interested ink tag(at the bottom of the post). If I sketched something else with this ink, then there will be more posts.

Beautiful sketches.

 

Do you draft in pencil 1st?

 

What kind of paper do you use, all different or all the same?

[Andrew_L]

Hi!
Yes, I use a pencil first for a skelet of sketch.
I use different paper: Clairefontaine Triumph(my prefer), but I often use other paper: Xerox Colotech+ 120gsm, Double A 90 gsm, locally made paper "Shkolyarik" 90-120gsm. Finaly, I make drawings by the Indian Ink on watercolor paper(300+ gsm).

[DrDebG]

OUTSTANDING! You are an exceptional artist! I love the playfulness in many of your pieces. I appreciate seeing the ink in all of its glory. Well done!

I maked post with first experience of test ink and review:)

I do not plan to continue, because it takes a lot of time and effort, but maybe it will be useful and interesting.

All are great, but the featured drawing of the car is fantastic. I love the angle, the sheen, and the sense of motion. Well done and thank you for sharing!
