FAQ: Hey, buddy! So, what tools are you using these days for your art?
eDufR: I’m still rocking Photoshop and my trusty Wacom tablet. For traditional pieces, it’s all about that Canson Montval or Bristol paper—300gsm, of course! Also my 0.3 mechanical pencil and that nifty 0.3 mm B graffiti pen for those sharp lines. And I’ve got my 2B and 6B pencils for shading. A kneaded eraser for adjustments. For inking, I’m all about those disposable ink pens in various sizes—0.05, 0.1, and 0.8. And I can’t forget my round liner brush, the Fine Liner Sable 2/0 302. Perfect for those delicate details!
It’s all about finding what works for you. I always tell people, don’t feel pressured to buy the same tools as your favorite artist. Everyone has different preferences, and that’s what makes our styles unique.
