First off I just wanted to say your art is amazing and inspirational! I love them! And I was also wondering what is a "white poster color"? I'm sorry, I'm so not up to date with this kind of stuff But I love your work and hope to be as good a painter as you!

Thank you so much! And also, is any paper okay to water paint on?

I myself prefer using thin paper, but I think you should try thick ones (about 300gsm) at the beginning ^ ^

Hi, what's that thing you use for makeing dots and strands with the white ink?? Or what could I use alternatively?? Thanks in advance^^

Claparo-Sans In reply to shiroyuki-hime [2011-07-19 14:09:43 +0000 UTC]

You can use a small brush or G-nib, in this tut I used G-nib pen : )

shiroyuki-hime In reply to Claparo-Sans [2011-07-20 10:42:18 +0000 UTC]

Oh, a G-nib, looks fantasic. Do you think I can get such a thing in Engalnd, because I think that I wont get a G-nib in Austria. You don't get a lot things there. And I don't want to register on another site just to buy one thing. Thanks anyway

Claparo-Sans In reply to shiroyuki-hime [2011-07-20 11:47:03 +0000 UTC]

I think it's not hard to find, just a normal nib is OK. I bought mine from a regular book-store (' 3 ') But now I don't use white-ink anymore, white poster color is quite better and very cheap (about 1-2$ for one jar), and you can do more sharp lines with tiny brush and white poster color than white-ink ^ ^

shiroyuki-hime In reply to Claparo-Sans [2011-07-20 14:30:05 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. That sounds like a good recommendation. I've just thought about white-ink and doubded its usefulness. I intendeed to buy copic opaque white, but I think white poster color might do it and it's much cheaper as you say.

I have a Q. how to do you remove the paper's texture in Photoshop, and make it look so smooth ?

Claparo-Sans In reply to JaZz-oR [2011-05-18 18:53:51 +0000 UTC]

I have used Genius scanner, it didn't show paper texture. Since I've changed to my new scanner, the paper texture cannot be removed .__.' That means I don't know how.
