Nibs and Noodlers

by Alex Hallatt

I’ve been having a play around with some new nibs. Got a big box of them in a second hand store in the ranges. There were two types in the box and I love the line of one of them.

I’ve also been using a fountain pen with some Nooders ink, as recommended by illustrator extraordinaire, George Haddon and as noted from Mattias Adolfsson’s blog. It is great for sketching or drawing quick lines, but not good for going over pencil as it does erase a bit (unlike my dip pen ink, Windsor and Newton).
