Love your tool kit! My go to pens are either micron or uni-ball. The ink just follows really nicely in both of them!

Hey Charli. I went to art school. I use paper and ink, or colors to draw designs on paper. I then scan or photo to computer and clean it up. I then print it out and tweek by hand as nesessary. I have personal art and commercial art. Your videos are great!
