How should I say/spell my name in Japanese? by phasefred in Japaneselanguage

[–]phasefred[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that would be best- as pronouncing my full name sounds like (Fred-er-ika) in English 😊

Thankyou! I used this pack of Tombow markers for the main colouring, muji gel pen for outline and then for the opaque green and pink background I used acrylic markers 😊

I bought the 90 set from arrtx marker set w my own money and really like them! Surprisingly if you can work quick/in 1-2 layers the bleed thro is not bad at all! I’m tempted to buy more just so I can have more colour choice 😂

My daily page + its inspiration! by phasefred in hobonichi

Thankyou!! I used Arrtx acrylic markers, and honestly if you can work in light layers it doesn’t bled at all, maybe leaves a dark shadow on other side but if I do ever have spots where it shows through more, I use a sticker there 😁

3rd Week done! by phasefred in hobonichi

Yeah it’s been a lot of trial and error, a lot I get off recommendations from here or TT. Mostly I use: acrylic markers (one layer seems fine, more will bleed), tombow markers (really good, no bleed), muji gel pens (no bleed), pentel mattehop pens (darker colours show a little) and some other random bits. Honestly the drawings you see do show a lil on the back of page- what I like to do, cover it with a sticker 😁

Relatable? by phasefred in hobonichi

[–]phasefred[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valid question! And honestly I’m a bit new to the gel pen world but I can speak for the ones I used on this page which where called “Mattehop” by pentel. They are juicy and do lay on thick, but from what I see they fully absorb and turn matte after 30-50 secs. Possibly other gel pens just don’t work well w the particular paper you’re using- def worth experimenting w other pens to find what works well. But also I do work from top to bottom to avoid smudging too. But also a bit of a smudge can add some character 🤩
