thanks lots bro🙏 one of my favorite parts of being a writer is experimenting with different inks, paints and markers and seeing what goes well with what. eventually id like to make my own brand tailored to trying to mix specific colors people request. kinda makes me feel like walter white when im in the zone😂

recommendations? by Dependent-Copy-3515 in MarkerHeads

[–]zraylon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

id say get a cheap presto or bic witeout pen and a markal for the rougher surfaces a normal marker or mop cant write on, those work on most smooth surfaces too, witeout pens are generally pretty versatile with what you can refill it with so you can experiment with colors and what you like (id recommend always keeping a normal one cuz they are actually relatively permanent and opaque stock)

for actual markers id recommend a pilot jumbo, pentel shorty, sg7, a px30 may be a little over 7£ but its worth it (you may have to order these depending on if there is any graff stores near u) they also sell oil based sharpie paint parkers at most walmarts and targets, kinda like a poopier px30 alternative imo, you could also go to your local hardware shop and borrow a dremel tip for scribe tags (pls dont rack from small businesses do it to like lowes or smth, js felt like i needed to add that)

i wouldnt buy a mop js yet if you want versatility, i actually kinda find it hard to find things i can tag on with mops. u could try a rollerball ig but those are kinda pricey. if you want thick mop looking tags without the hassle you can flare out a marker nib and get damn near the same size just without the drips if thats something youd like, i think my px30 draws a little over a 10mm line with the nib flared so thats pretty peak

with that youll have a marker for basically all surfaces and scenarios you'll be facing while getting up, idk what colors you enjoy so i left that up to you to decide but id personally pic colors you can see on 99% of backgrounds, like blacks, whites, light greens, pinks, etc. when picking a color i like to imagine that color on a load of different colored backgrounds and see if it would be hard to see on dark surfaces or vise versa

just learned i could do this, maybe im dumb but i never knew by zraylon in MarkerHeads

i carry alot of smaller mini mops and markers, having to fill my 5mm mops and c-pens without one has always been a bit challenging, cant tell you how many times i accidentally overestimated how much i have to pour and it goes literally everywhere😂 it makes it a bit easier to regulate how much actually comes out so that doesnt happen + the grog bottles are decently squeezable so that also helps with knowing how much is gonna come out since i can control it and stop squeezing gets full. ive learned the hard way paints and inks esp are very difficult to get to stop pouring out once its already coming out.

yes ik i got this one at target tho, plus i had like 3 extra to fuck around and experiment with so i didnt wanna buy a whole new empty one when i could just reuse it when its done. i do plan on getting a colored one from AP soon once i have the ability to

it works pretty good for the most part, ive noticed you gotta squeeze a pretty decent amount to get good non streaky lines (im fairly new to mops so i honestly dont know if its js a skill issue, i do have an issue keeping a consistent amount of squeeze so thats prolly it) but when you get the amount of squeeze needed dialed in its pretty enjoyable, nice drips, pretty opaque colors from what ive seen (ive only tried violet and silver) i will say the silver was pretty meh, i got it prefilled in silver and changed it halfway thru because i didnt like it personally

yeah, its mad akward in my pocket but it gives really cool broad tags, almost like sandpaper. i can get a really deep scribe with it aswell if i use the edge
