Okay, let's talk equipments. All you really need is a brush pen and a bit of paper, you can use standard printer paper like this available in any country worldwide. It's fantastic stuff. In terms of brush pens, you got a few choices in front of you, you can get a dual brush, a single brush, or basically a kid's marker. This one might be easiest to start with, it's got a very hard nib so it's easier to control the challenges you've got to really be repetitive pushing hard on the paper to get those thick constructs. These two there's not much difference in the brush pen.
On this one. You just get the brush pen. On this one, you get a brush pen, and you get a felt tip as well. I'm going to talk to you about the three I've tried and the pros and superheroes of each. These ones are intended for toddlers. It's a simple marker, which makes it a little bit easier for a beginner.
You're not going to push down and suddenly get this big fat lands playing out. You can also find The not being a professional maka, the nib can get a little blown out of times. Then you've got the common brush pen. It's basically just a single sided brush the nibs are available in soft or hard hard nib is a little easier for a beginner but soft is going to be a lot more advantageous in this style of illustration. And you get a dual brush maka. This is the one I recommend for doing this kind of illustration.
You've got your beautiful soft brush there, and a nice hot nib there for find detailing and even corrections to your floorplan work. I'd also strongly suggest a little bit of sellotape to stick down the edges of your pages so it doesn't run away from you when you're drawing your brush main character. Optional is a good cup of coffee and a bit of background music. So a Bluetooth speaker or your phone with a set of headphones absolutely, highly recommended. This wonderful natural light, I just want to show you when I draw, all I've really got is this soft shadow here and because the lights coming from this way, it's not really interfering with what I'm doing. If I draw by, say, a table lamp, I can sometimes get a sort of ghost land next to the one I'm drawing which can throw you out a little bit and cause a few issues with lining things up and that sort of thing.
So to recap, brush pen, paper, sellotape, good cup of coffee, and some beautiful natural light. Let's get started.
