    will these remain water soluble after dried? If i wanted to watercolor over it, will it bleed together?

    • @JetPens
      @JetPens  7 лет назад +3

      It depends on what you use to mix. The Speedball inks for example, are waterproof so they remain waterproof.

    great tutorial. I only have liquid gum arabic will the measurements be the same as powder

    • @JetPens
      @JetPens  7 лет назад +3

      Yes--the measurement is roughly the same, but you might want to experiment to see what works best for you.

    Hi there, great tutorial but I had a quick question. I use the Pilot Parallel Pens in the eyedropper format by filling the barrel with Noodler's Ink to do scoreboards at my job but experience feathering at times. If I were to mix gum arabic with the Noodlers and then fill the barrel, will the arabic settle and clog the nib or does it dissolve into the ink to allow consistent flow even after the pen has sat for a few days to a week?

    • @JetPens

      We do not recommend doing this as it will clog your pen.

    This was a very informative tutorial...
    but the background music was a little too loud, and interfered with your speaking...

      Hi! We're using a Brause 361 Steno Blue Pumpkin Calligraphy Pen Nib in a Speedball Oblique Pen Nib Holder. www.jetpens.com/search?q=id%3A5809+OR+id%3A12366

    Is it possible to use eyeshadow to make inks?

    I know I'm late but I have a question. If I thin out the DR MARTIN'S PH WHITE too much can I add some gum Arabic. thanks

    • @JetPens
      @JetPens  5 лет назад

      Yes you can! It might not be as opaque though.

    Great vid! I've got a question though: are there any cheaper alternative to arabian gum? like flour or something? ;)

    • @JetPens
      @JetPens  7 лет назад

      We don't know of any alternatives!

    Isn't the ink too viscous?

    What is the gum arabic for?

    • @JetPens
      @JetPens  7 лет назад

      It helps thicken up the ink so it can be used with nibs.

    • @ninal.3109
      @ninal.3109 7 лет назад

      Will it also work without?

    • @kirbthebean

      @@ninal.3109 No, without it may be too runny and difficult to write with
