Talens

[Slacker]

Hey I got a Q on the talens drawing ink. I heard that it is better than Sumi for lining when riding the tube as when it all comes out it dont make such a mess, and safer as to not mess up the stencil. Can this be used for shading as well? It is water proof, but will it mix with witch hazel? Any suggestions on how I can use it to make 4 pre mixed bottles of different darkness degrees? Peace

i have recently started using a 50/50 mix of sumi and talens after a recommendation (cheers framey ;) )
Its exactly where i want it..perfect for lining and gives me the greys i like. And its a little easier on the cleanup :) . I have a B+G piece coming up hopefully in the next few weeks so i can post a pic once its healed
