      i would recommend using a white out pen if you want a really opaque pen
      I use one and they work great to cover up mistakes!! the only thing that could be a problem is that you cant really draw over it

    The streaky thing is called "railroading". It's when the ball in the pen pushes the ink to the sides, but not the center.

    Oil paint pens are not designed for cotton based paper. the paper absorbs the oil. Same thing for the rayman pen. Use a non porous surface and the paint will be super vibrant.

      Both. I've had some degrade on me a few times.
      Usually worst if you have it exposed to sunlight, which was my fault admittedly.
      A lot of modern inks are vastly superior to the inks of old times, which is where you see the worst degradation. (especially watercolor)
      But they can still be affected by sunlight, especially if it is in the 2 hours around noon when at its strongest. (same goes for writable optical discs)

      Yeeaah, fun fact I used that marker when I do acrylics and i want some detail or outline. Because if you use a regular/normal sharpie it dries so quickly and die, so the oil baised doesn’t dry because of the oil. But I got to say that have this glossy texture at the end and be careful we does tips, are tricky af😂 if you press hard the paint will come out

      @Steeksify 6 лет назад +18

      No, it's not lmao Railroading is a term exclusive to fountain and dip pens which utilize a flexible or semi-flexible nib. It's a specific term for a specific kind of mechanic. What you're referring to is simply a flow issue, as a ballpoint pen cannot physically railroad. A nib-based pen is different, since it uses 2 tines and capillary action to apply ink to paper. When the tines spread too far without sufficient ink flow, the ink does not spread between them creating two distinct lines, separated by white space (or whatever color your paper is) rather than a single line. THAT is what railroading is. It is NOT the same thing as ink appearing darker or being more concentrated along either side of the stroke, or the ink running out midstroke. Again, a ballpoint pen is physically incapable of railroading as ballpoint pens do not utilize capillary action.
      Please don't throw around terms you clearly don't understand. Thanks!

    • @AngieMyst
      @AngieMyst 6 лет назад +15

      Keiss In communities that discuss ballpoint pens in depth, it's definitely commonly called railroading when the ball pushes ink to the side and the middle is thinner. The term probably evolved from its original usage meaning with fountain pen nibs. Since these are two completely different types of pens, it should be less confusing when using the same term to mean different things

    Maybe the actual conclusion to this is that you need more than one kind of white pen. A gel pen for fine dots and lines, and a juicier gel or paint pen for larger areas or that is compatible with your go-to paint and markers. I have the Sakura gelly roll and I don't like how it looks. I think in the future I will buy the Uni-ball Signo Broad, both the Uni-Pasco and Sharpie water-based paint pens, and the Sakura Glaze. Might get a Decorese for kicks.

    Other than Amazon, I'm not sure where you shop for pens at. But, recently after realizing that I needed to replace some old art supplies with new ones, I found this website called Jetpens.com. I spent about 25 dollars on close to 20 items. (bumped up the item count because if you spend $20 on your first purchase, you get free shipping) But, all of my pens and stuff were amazing and relatively inexpensive considering how much I was buying. This website is seriously the best. I get at least 85% of my art supplies from them and they are always amazing!!!

    I don't know if you'll see this, but I have a tip for the small breaks in lines when using pen. I would recommend pens with small holes somewhere on the opposite end of the tip or the barrel. The air getting into the pen itself is said to help ink flow, which is why some pens include that detail.

    I love how you wore white nail polish

    Mabye the discoloration is because the pens are waterbased and the dyes and pigments mix into it cuz the pens are reactivating the paint. But this is my theory 😂

    Thank you for doing this comparison. I bought a set of uni-ball broad white gel pens after seeing the results. They are fantastic. Thanks again! Stay creative and be blessed.

    I recently discovered your channel and I’ve been watching your videos on autoplay for a few days in a row now! It’s so satisfying!
    Do you have a video in which you’ve tested/compared gel pens in color? I’m very interested!

    I think the ramay may be for like a black board like the ones you see outside restaurants with the specials and such. It looks like the markers we used to use at my family's old restuarant

    If you ever get a chance try a Molotow fine paint marker. Doesn't dry or clog as much as the cheaper Sharpies and more opaque than the Posca. Signo is also what I preferr for a gel pen but I find paint markers are more consistent.

    Looking in stores, the only one I was able to find was the Uniball broad and was actually surprised with how well it worked but I was convinced there would be a better one out there that I couldn't get my hands on lol. This was helpful :)

    Ok, now i need this video but testing all the pens on different types of papers/surfaces. This video was great! I already have the Uniball Broad and Sakura Gelly Roll, but I might add a sharpie water-based paint marker to my collection, especially for dotting.
