I was just wondering what you guys prefer when sketchin pen or pencil? I like practicing throwups with a pen cus it makes me try harder to make em clean. But when i try to do pieces i prefer a hard lead pencil so i can take my time and erase any mistakes and then go over it with a pen.

ok on paper, i never practice my throwups, i pretty much freestyle all of them. pieces i always do in pencil..then outline in ink.

Freakin weerdos! the both of u! i do all my bookin stuff in pencil thaz it

[Fisdj]

pencil is the only way to go

nah i like to get the hang of my throw ups so i know how to do them fast. Pencil can always be erased and redone but you cant redo a pen just like you cant redo paint.

i'm tryingt o get better control with a pen...... but i do pencils then go over in ink and erase... rinse and repeat

haha i agree with Bade-9, pencil all the way! i find that with pencil, you can make dope shadings and such

Pencil, ink, then color in with prismas. Works everytime

i prefer coloring in first with prismas and then putin on the outline with a pen. my pen smudges when i try to color over it.

U just need to wait for it to dry first

true lol, i should take more time when coloring altogether tho. i keep going out of the lines.

i draw it out in a pencil the go ova it in pen, but, a good thing to do it with is use a biro, you can get the best shadeing, better then a pencil i may say, lol

biro? whats that?

a type of scratchy pen, really cool!

never heard of em but what i got me some cool colored sharpies today and a 24 pack of prismas.
