My good man, it is pronounced Foo-day. We are told how to say it by its spelling: fudè. It's short for Ofuda, Meaning brush. Love the video. love the information contained within.

This could be the video that gets me to use my Sailor Fude de Mannen pen more. It's a pen that takes a bit of getting used to, but watching this video has shown me how it will definitely be worth the effort to use it more. It would be great for developing loosening up with lines and the hatching techniques can be used to make value study sketches. Thanks for this video.

@stellaball7289 I love my Hongdian!! It’s a little more expensive than the Sailor but totally worth it as I find the nib gives more line variations and has a way better ink flow!

How did you make the decision to leave the front two bushes white? No marks at all?

A great question - hard to verbalise the answer, but really to give some more space to the image. It's just a sketch so doesn't need to be finished, and I feel that blank on a page has a powerful pushing affect on our vision/brains. It's also a love hate thing, so some people feel white is ugly - for me it's tension and interesting... Hopefully that is an answer!

This is probably a silly question but can you tell me why a lot of fountain pen converters have a choice of colours on the end? It isn’t visible when using the pen so it doesn’t make sense to me. Thankyou.

Hi Toby, I have bought a flude pen, but after 2 days of not using it, it wont work. I usel Quink permanent ink. Any ideas? I've inblocked it so it writes but not upside down and yhen blocks up again. I am frustrated as I loved using it☹
@TobySketchLoose
Жыл бұрын
Oh I'm sorry. I'm not familiar with Quink permanent ink - googling it looks to be foutnain pen safe. I'm really sorry that I don't have a clever solution other than trying to flush it a couple of times, then either trying different ink, or returning the pen for a new one. Sometimes the nibs are flawed and thus block - which is really frustrating.

After every use you must wash the pen and rinse it with a dry towel. Then let the pen rest upside down. Did you do that ? :)

I honestly can't remember - I suspect it's not. But if there is smudging, it's because a fude pen lays down a lot of ink so it take a while to dry.

I personally think that this type of sketch looks best in monochrome. But, if you can't resist color then try sketching it with a colored ink. Otherwise, let the hatching be the color. 😊
