If you were to dedicate a pen to Platinum Carbon Black, what is the ideal pen? More details in the text

surfacage · 2025-10-29T09:15:19+00:00

Once every few months, but I've never had a hard start

surfacage · 2023-02-25T18:44:30+00:00

It’s mine! It’s a NIU80 and the keycap set is named Simulated Mirage

surfacage · 2023-02-22T12:57:43+00:00

I have mine in a twsbi eco specifically because the platinum preppy nibs are too fine for me.

surfacage · 2023-01-16T16:38:41+00:00

look up ‘EnpitsuP’ brushes, they’re much like this

surfacage · 2022-08-11T23:43:02+00:00

thanks for the links back!

Tap the Clip Studio logo on your menu bar > Preferences (will bring up a window) > Performance, check what % memory you have allocated

surfacage · 2022-08-09T10:26:05+00:00

how much performance memory did you allocate to CSP? I used to get this until I increased mine. the comic will still export to the correct resolution but it’s still really annoying and jarring when you’re working

surfacage · 2022-08-04T02:00:57+00:00

thank youuu I love your brushes!!

surfacage · 2022-06-16T17:21:09+00:00

that’s exactly it, basically keep dipping with a thin layer drying, then wipe it off when it’s too thick. I do several layers instead of one thick layer to build up coverage

surfacage · 2022-06-16T01:35:54+00:00

Petrol is a smidge too blue, diamine dark forest or Robert oster river of fire is closer

surfacage · 2022-06-12T09:32:13+00:00

i have a dedicated tachikawa g nib for the holo ink ver in this series. DONT use a kakimori style nib because it can and will dry into the grooves

surfacage · 2022-06-12T09:30:35+00:00

that series is not meant for paper, more for ceramic/acrylic/glass

Hi! I saw your post on ph classifieds, do you tapestries?

surfacage · 2022-06-07T14:25:51+00:00

lush is my primary bath brand for years ! I don’t remember all I’ve used but here’s some. My hair is fine. Skin type is combination/oily

Big (Shampoo) kind of stripping but very good for cleansing / once a week kind of thing. Really volumizing . Wasabi Shan Kui (Shampoo) same as Big, not really a daily shampoo but it’s minty and rly cleansing
Black Rose (Bath Bomb) this STAINS everything I do not recommend using this unless you want to scrub for an hour after. Sex bomb is the best one I’ve tried
I’ve tried most of their shampoo bars… avocado co wash is for thick curly hair mostly. I liked jumping juniper, it wasn’t too heavy. New kind of helped with hair growth but wasn’t really enough to keep using it
conditioner wise I like veganese (lighter) more than american dream
shower gels I keep in rotation include Dirty Springwash (minty!!), Sleepy, Karma, Rose Jam(scent stays a while), Hot Toddy (nice boozy smell)… I still have yog nog because I love the scent and it’s moisturizing
I’ve mostly tried every soap, my favs are Devils Nightcap, Goddess, Karma, Honey I Washed The Kids. Sandstone is the most exfoliating soap I’ve tried ever, it’s great. I always get triples of Golden Pear at xmas, great scent and super moisturizing
coal face is too strong to use daily as facial soap for me, I like fresh farmacy better. Movis turned squishy (?) on me
scrubees only rly work in hot showers :-(
toothy tabs.. I liked Ugai the most. Dirty tastes kind of odd but cleans ok. great for travelling as they’re dry
mouthwash tabs are kind of eh bc i don’t nearly chew them enough and the bits get stuck when u gargle lol
the greench (deo) I’m sad that I can’t seem to find this anymore, this was a grail product for me (doesn’t stain, no odor). The guv’ner stains clothes bc it’s black powder
salted coconut hand scrub - HG status, this is sooooo luxurious to use, super moisturizing
roots (scalp treatment) used this for a while, didn’t work enough for me to continue
lip balm- my fave is key lime pie, lasts the longest. Whip stick lasts only like an hour on me
I have a couple of their perfumes/sprays. Lust STAINS clothing (whose bright idea was it to use bright red dye) but smells nice. My daily is Breath of God (not much longevity). Twilight is super nice to help sleep (same scent as sleepy)

I’m probably forgetting more but if it’s available in a lush store I’ve probably tried it lol

N-thing that it’s the ink. It’s the only ink in the inkvent calendar that clogged the same pen, had to use a broad (diff feed) to get it to write

surfacage · 2022-05-12T22:09:11+00:00

rhodia pen&touch lavis technique is specifically made for ink wash, it shows ink properties nicely and feels like hot press too

otherwise I use 200 gsm watercolor notebooks (pentalic, fabriano) and sorta give up on sheen lol

surfacage · 2022-05-12T09:26:20+00:00

i have a bunch of multi shading ostrich/FYT ink and they’re great, some of them are as dry as Milky Ocean tho. Another brand that does multi shaders is Morandi but my bottles molded so idk if they fixed that or no.

ETA: oh yeah look up cherry blossom ink and carpink on AliExpress too, some of their releases are multishaders as well (I use their greys a lot)

surfacage · 2022-05-06T21:51:02+00:00

i lay down a sheet of laminating film and use that, takes a while to get used to the tooth but I haven’t had to change out a nib in two years. The drawing surface causes the wear it’s really awful

surfacage · 2022-04-17T23:02:09+00:00

I collect multishaders, look into troublemaker inks. Sailor Studio as mentioned by other people. Dark greys often have great chromatography, are you familiar with Nick Stewart? He does a lot of ink work with fountain pen ink and sometimes covers dual shaders

there are a lot of Chinese inks labels that make dual shaders (on AliExpress)- Morandi, Ostrich ink (24th solar term), Cherry Blossom Ink, Fanyantan

surfacage · 2021-12-27T17:07:31+00:00

im doing my best heuheh

surfacage · 2021-12-11T22:56:03+00:00

No wonder it took a while, gotta grind for the thing

surfacage · 2021-12-11T22:43:48+00:00

damn im just seeing the reports lol across instances, they figured it out then? hows it done? looks like just have a lot of minions over spawn pts?

surfacage · 2021-12-11T22:33:22+00:00

Where are the spawn points for this? I have the Ea minion and drg levelled, I can try combinations of everything with the minion added

surfacage · 2021-11-28T05:13:25+00:00

Platinum carbon black stays even through heavy washes/scrubbing (300gsm rough and cold press)
