I never thought about usjng water brushes like that.. Bristle ink brushes here are all imported so they are expensive. U just saved me a lot of money. You are part of the reason why I started doing traditional art too a year back. I can't thank you enough :)
I tried using this type of pen 2 years ago, demoralized by the tests I did at the time I no longer used it, putting it aside, after this video I really think I will use it again. Chroma thank you so much for this video.
Just use it alongside your caligraphy pen or whatever you use, I play around with allsorts and never take things too seriously until I want to, very important to not get drawing block, just take a time out, have coffee play with another toy, Ive been using a kebab skewer, paint brush, caligraphy pen, some inks some charcoal, enjoy what you do, thats important.
Thanks for your very good "Brush Pen 101". I have purchased several sets of Micron pens and they come with a brush pen. I shied away from using that instrument because I figured it required more control than what I could muster up. Your 'How To Draw With A Brush pen' gave me the motivation to start using it. Thank you.
One thing I personally ran into as a noob (and which I think may be somewhat common, especially for those with no formal training) was thinking that the lines from comics and manga which a dip or fountain pen produce are made using a brush pen, as fineliners are incapable of much variation without breaking them. And then there's this frustration that occurs when one can't get these smooth, tapering, thin lines, but instead get the blobby blocky look of a novice's brushwork. I think this may be from a perspective problem: Brush pens are sold in the "drawing" section of art supply stores, while dip pens are in the "calligraphy" section, and fountain pens are at stationary shops. Digital art tools also calls anything with line variation a "brush." The term "G pen" is difficult to find much info on in English without digging too hard, so while some art programs use it for brushes meant to approximate an actual G pen, the fact it's a real physical tool becomes missed.
An excellent and articulate description. I'm now inspired to order some water brushes to use with fountain pen ink, to add some variety to pen and ink drawings.
I just realized I've been struggling because my brush pets are all fkd 😂 just picked out a rarely used one and it's a completely different experience. Why thank you my 2 year old niece👶✨ She's still drawing with the Bas Rutten "hammerfist" technique 🤷😅
oh my god, i was just thinking about picking up the traditional brush pen (after years of being a digital art shill), this couldnt have come at a better time. thanks chroma !
Good advice for beginners of an elite medium. I love drawing in brush pen and it took years to build up the confidence to work with one, period, let alone start my journey to competence with such an expressive medium. My suggestion is go in the deep end and see if you like what brush pen offers you as potential application for your own drawing practice before spending money on products without watching good reviews like this, even of specific products you’re thinking of purchasing. It’s not for everyone. If you’re a control freak, you will not be able to emotionally handle how permanent and unrelenting this medium is at first. But it increases your visualization skills by so much to have to try and visualize a line fully before you draw it.
In this sense its a good way to improve and humble an artist. If someone decides to pick this up, baring in mind having to visualise and imagine the line and draw it exactly as such if one perseveres with that its probably one of the most important skills of an artist and its overlooked
Thank you very much. Very simple and brief explanation. I bought some water brushepen on impulse and had no idea how to use them. Thank you very much. There are so many wise tips and advice in this video... Great.
Hey, Chroma Moma, have you heard about Lancer RPG Tabletop? I love your art and it reminds me of the mecha from this rpg. Keep good work and thank you for the educational videos =)
Not overworking the imperfect strokes and just leaving the wobbled lines as is, being partial to the ladder. Great advice that I will be applying when I’m using my brush pen. Thank you. What are your personal favorite brush pens to use?
This was a really great video, and while a brush pen is a bit outside of my comfort zone right now I think there are really great lessons here regardless! Great humor too, I really enjoyed it May I be bold and suggest adding some soft fabrics to the room you are recording in? You have a great microphone but that has the drawback of picking up a lot of reflected sound too haha
I use water color brush with ink i can fill some with ink, some diluted and get great tones and an inky watercolor effect. Its beautiful. Thank you for sharing this, i will subscribe
Also as i watched we have the same warm ups, i do ghost strokes and such but ill do a sheet of circles and straight lines too, connecting them using ghost strokes and line weight until i get a perfect straight line (if this makes sense) I have adhd so if i go straight into drawing i rush and these warmups just put some patience into me and it helps me get in hyperfocus mode, but also improves technique and linework in the process too
I'm not a skilled drawer, but I actually thoroughly enjoy brush pens because it kinda goes against all the rules. It's chaotic and helps me go into a mindset where I'm not trying to be a perfectionist. I just let whatever I'm observing and drawing form itself as it does. Thanks for sharing tips! Hopefully I can improve but I'm having funny anyways.
Hello, thank you for the video. I have a question if you don't mind me asking. In this video you mentioned using a waterbrush filled with ink diluted in water allows us to shade in grey, what kind of ink can be used here? Won't it clog the water brush? Thank you.
i just found out that i just love drawing while watching your videos , i actually just let them run on the screen of my computer and draw ,looking up occasionally ,you are good company to be in ☺
This might be a weird question but isn't there a MV u made a while ago called "I wanna draw but i dont want to"? Been trying to searches for the song again but I cant seems to find it...
So I've tried to make my water brush into a gray brush pen for a while now and emptied it like 5x but the pigment is still at least twice as dark as I want. I think the bits between the brush and the wash in the barrel is just somehow soaked w this super dark wash. Im about to wash the whole thing 🙃😑 Note: it's been this way for a while it's not that I just tried it bc this video. Just wanted to s/o how difficult it can be to balance
How fun i had the same ideia because the brush pens where so expensive but a set of several sizes of water brushs where cheap so i had the ideia of doing just that🤭🤭
Something smooth with a heavier weight to it, so a multimedia paper. If you're not worried about bleed and more about tearing, amazingly a lot of paper nowadays is tear resistant if it's make to be used a lot. Not copy paper, but any sort or art paper like sketchbooks or drawing paper should be able to withstand a brush pen amount of ink.
hahahahahha "i get it you want to draw like kim jung gi" lmao i do , thats why im here . im trying to learn as much as i can to draw like him. Its depressing sometimes becasue he drew non stop and he died young at 47, im 39, theres no way i can catch up to him, dont have the time or skill to do that lol. but im going to try. :D thank you for the video.
"If every stroke is wonky, no strokes are wonky" 1/wonky X wonky so wonky cuts out and therefore wonky = 1 so there is only 1 thing that is wonky which is the drawing but the drawing is wonky as a whole so no part of the drawing is considred wonky. But then ...more yes. no.

"if all lines are wonky, none of them are wonky." Words of wisdom right there, and not just for brush pens.
babe wakeup, chroma moma just uploaded
You very clearly stole this joke from one of his most popular commebts😮
I felt this.
bro copied my whole flow 😔😔😔

I’ve been having troubles with brush pens for a while, this video makes me excited to dive in again

The strength of the brush pen comes clear when you have to write simple text on uneven (dented) surface, for example - rough stone.
Well this is timely! I received some brush pens and was searching RUclips for guidance yesterday. 😁
Hey, Chroma Moma, have you heard about Lancer RPG Tabletop? I love your art and it reminds me of the mecha from this rpg. Keep good work and thank you for the educational videos =)
This video got me so excited to sketch with my brush pen I’m contemplating doing just that at 12:12am. Great video.
I was waiting for this video!! so glad you uploaded, keep up the great work
Excellent video for beginners to using brush pens. Thank you so much!
Not overworking the imperfect strokes and just leaving the wobbled lines as is, being partial to the ladder. Great advice that I will be applying when I’m using my brush pen. Thank you.
What are your personal favorite brush pens to use?
this guy really knows his strokes
STOP REMINDING US WE CANT DRAW LIKE KIM JUNG GI
He is reminding us of this so we can become Kim Jung Gi pt.2 💪🏻
We are gonna surpass him 😎😎
Ooooh, this was super helpful and cool, been looking forward to this video! :D
I love videos about ink technics and tools
New to art here. Just brought a brushpen. Do the bristles wear out within months of usage.
This was a really great video, and while a brush pen is a bit outside of my comfort zone right now I think there are really great lessons here regardless! Great humor too, I really enjoyed it
May I be bold and suggest adding some soft fabrics to the room you are recording in? You have a great microphone but that has the drawback of picking up a lot of reflected sound too haha
Awesome video they're always a gem to watch keep it up
I love the pilot shunpitsu pocket brush its a rubber tip. I don't really care for dry brush textures
this was an incredibly informative video! awesome work! i've seen other brush pen videos but this is the best!
Glad it was helpful!
This was a great topic for a video, I learned a lot. You've got a really nice style. Thanks man!
hello & thank you, very inspiring & simple tutorial-can you recommend a black ink, please?
Always love your videos, Thanks

you want to clean them out every once in a while anyway.
if you leave it alone to long... lets just say i had sludge grow in one of them one time.
Can I dilute all water based brush pens with water to acquire more of a watercolor look?
I have really wanted to use my brush pen. But using it has frustrated me. This is some great thoughts on it.
i just found out that i just love drawing while watching your videos , i actually just let them run on the screen of my computer and draw ,looking up occasionally ,you are good company to be in ☺
It's a good day when he post
I'm glad I watched this! Brush pen is really hard 😅
This is excellent. Great tips, and after 40 years I still learn new tips. Really solid work. Thank you. ❤
"God. So many innuendos!" 😂
Such a great video, thank you!
This might be a weird question but isn't there a MV u made a while ago called "I wanna draw but i dont want to"?
Been trying to searches for the song again but I cant seems to find it...
if i put ink in a water color brush will that make it so i cant use regular water with it?
the Pentel microbrush Sign Pen is a lot smaller and easier to control.
So I've tried to make my water brush into a gray brush pen for a while now and emptied it like 5x but the pigment is still at least twice as dark as I want.

"If every stroke is wonky, none of them are wonky."
Amen
all right new vid!
I've tried using brushpen once few years ago, but the result was kinda wanky. now I wanna try again, heh. thank you for the video✌️😎
dude never fails to stroke his pen 😩👌
How fun i had the same ideia because the brush pens where so expensive but a set of several sizes of water brushs where cheap so i had the ideia of doing just that🤭🤭
@8:38 phenomenal insight.
Ey! Been waiting for this video!
Don't be afraid to draw with the Brash Pen, keep drawing freely
“just the tip” (read with “Archer” voice… phrasing anyone?😂 okay seriously though, I’ll get back to brush pen illo’s again, thanks for the vid. ❤
can someone suggest a drawing notebook thats relatively medium to small sized
ghost strokes
Wow, great tips!
What sort of paper is appropriate for brush pens?
Something smooth with a heavier weight to it, so a multimedia paper. If you're not worried about bleed and more about tearing, amazingly a lot of paper nowadays is tear resistant if it's make to be used a lot. Not copy paper, but any sort or art paper like sketchbooks or drawing paper should be able to withstand a brush pen amount of ink.
Good job!
thank you!
Now I’m gonna go ALL IN on trying to be Kim Jung Gi 2.

Reupload?
I can't squeeze out ink!!! It's annoying
Great vid
Wow I'm early for once
WAKE UP BABE! CHROMAMOMA POSTED!!!!
We all live in the very long shadow of Kim Jung Gi. Nothing to be ashamed of...RIP to The God of The Ink Brush.

1/wonky X wonky so wonky cuts out and therefore wonky = 1 so there is only 1 thing that is wonky which is the drawing but the drawing is wonky as a whole so no part of the drawing is considred wonky. But then ...more
yes. no.
Leave the wonk. I like the wonk

RIP Kim Jung Gi 😢

Thanks that was a great video 🙏🏼
