Since October is in full bloom
I wanted to share my inktober art
supplies and not only art supplies, but
basically everything that I used to
create my works for challenge. Couple of
years ago I already made a video
"5 tips and tricks that helped me to finish challenge in time".
Or you could say kind
of in time, because I really don't like
to put myself into a very strict time
boundaries. Even though this video is
kind of old and I look ridiculous there,
the way that I work throughout the
challenge didn't really change that
much. I've started in September
and I thought about the theme that I want to
explore during the challenge. This time
it's a visual story about my original
characters, it's the first time for me to
work with my characters actually and to
try and tell my own visual story. I share
more about the process on my social
media like Instagram and Facebook, so
make sure to check that. For my sketches
I use the most basic A4 paper that you
can find out there. It's 80g and
this paper is pretty thin, which is a
good thing, because I tape my sketches
onto the window and then I tape over my
paper the one that I use for ink work.
This way I transfer cleaner sketch.
If you have been watching my sketchbook
tours, you know that I've been using this
soft mechanical pencil for everything
pencil related. And I prefer 2B softness
because it's soft enough not to
scrape the paper, but it's also not that
soft that it leaves black marks.
I personally absolutely hate those small
things that normal eraser leaves, those dirt
pieces. That's why I use my favourite soft art
eraser, even though it gathers all the dust
and my dog's hair, I absolutely love it.
As the main paper I've been using Canson
brand and I'm a big fan of Canson, I do
have their sketchbooks.
I've chosen A4 format, which is the
biggest one so far that I've used. This
paper is pretty textured but it's kind
of dense, so it holds the texture. And
it's also perforated from the top, so
it's easy for you to take the sheets out.
If you want to know where I buy my art
supplies from, make sure to check my art
supply stores video, I've shared my
favourite spots in Prague along with some
coffee shops. Again this video is pretty
old, so I look ridiculous there…
This is just an example of
what my sketch would look like. I would
transfer it first very roughly, then I
would go over and paint in the details
with my pencil. Then I would take those lines
off with my soft art eraser and work on
top of that with my ink. You can see more
detailed videos on my Instagram, make
sure to follow me there. I duct tape my
sketches on the window and on top of
that I put my paper. I use paper masking
tape to keep my sketch and my paper
together. I actually had a very hard time
finding this one, because I prefer a
masking tape that you can easily rip
with your hands and also the one that
doesn't leave glue marks. And the one
that doesn't take top layer of my paper
off. Just a small life hack: if your
masking tape is too sticky, I would
recommend to put it first over your
t-shirt, only then to put it over the
paper. This way it will not be that sticky.
And my scissors, I basically use
them for everything, so it doesn't really
matter which ones, as long as they're
sharp. For my ink this time I chose
Kuretake black sumi ink for manga drawing,
it's a quick drying ink that is
not dissolved by water after it dries.
You can easily make it very black or
dilute it with
water and make washes. I was using
Windsor and Newton for my previous
drawings and I also liked it, but with
this one I kind of got a feeling that
it's blacker if it's possible. So I'm
really enjoying that! I do most of my
line work with my Fontaine zero
synthetic brush, then I apply washes and
shadows with my Milan ten brush and for
special effects like splattering white
paint I use Roubloff I-don't-even-know-the-number brush.
All of my brushes are
synthetic, I absolutely cannot work with
natural brushes – they're too soft for me,
too much fuss to take care of them. You
can check out my "How to wash brushes"
video where I shared my process. I try to
clean them up after I finished drawing
because as I said, my ink doesn't dilute
with water after it's dry. So it's harder
to get ink off bristles if they are
completely dried out. To mix my inks I
use this porcelain palette that I've
bought a couple of years ago. Even though
it was kind of pricey and it's heavy, I
absolutely recommend you to consider
buying one if you use paints or inks
often. Because it's very easy to clean, it
looks like it can hold forever. One thing
that really bugged me about those cheap
plastic pallets is that even though
they're white, if you use ink or really
pigmented washes, the colour will transfer
into the white palette and it will later
make it harder to understand which
colours you are mixing. With the porcelain
dish I absolutely never have this
problem, it's squeaky clean after every
use, so I can only recommend that. As you
can see in the right lower corner, this
is my water dish and it's a cheap plant
pot from Ikea. It kind of resembles
porcelain, but it's not really – it's some
kind of a plastic coat and you can
see how all of my colours and all of my
inks did transfer onto it. I have been
using this two dishes for the same time,
but the IKEA one is absolutely destroyed.
It doesn't really matter because I only
put water in it. I also use this piece of
cheesecloth to take excess water and
pigment off. As you can see it's pretty
used and I tried to wash it off, but you
know, the paint just stays there… I kind
of like how it looks:) To get a better
idea of how I use ink you can check out
my "How to draw with ink" video. To test my
brushes and to paint black to the
corners of my drawing I use a piece of
the same paper. And now how I take
pictures of my inktober drawings? I use
my boyfriend's t-shirt, preferably clean
one but, you never know…
As an addition to photographs I use
whatever is lying around the house. I
guess what I'm trying to say is the way
that you frame your work is almost as
important as your work itself. What I
usually do is I would go over to an
Instagram and I would check out top
works that you can find at #inktober
feed. And I try to replicate them, this is
how I got the idea of using the black
t-shirt, because it looks amazing when
you place your ink drawings on top of
that. And I also try to play around with
arranging different elements, candles and
stuff like that around the drawing
itself. I use my trusty gorillapod
for filming the process and speedpaints,
I usually put it on top of my lamp. I'm
exploring a story of those two gopnik's
guys. After I'm done drawing for the week
I would usually scan those just in case
something will happen to the original.
So that I can later work with them
digitally and create a fanzine, so stay
tuned for that. I will show those
drawings in my October sketchbook tour.
When I'm done drawing with ink, I can put
in some final details using
black and white gel pens. The brand
doesn't really matter, the most important
thing is that they have a very thick and
pigmented line. I basically use them
for touch-ups. And last but not the least
thing that I need to have during my
inktober is yummy tea. I'm a huge tea
drinker and I only drink coffee in the
morning, but for the rest of the day
I drink teas: black, white, green, matcha…
You name it, I have it! If you would like
