DWITT :

I think this is my favorite Ewing poster. It will always be hanging in my studio.
super solid all around.

danieldanger :

DWITT :

Ewing :

Ha...when I was a kid, I interviewed David Quinn and Tim Vigil when they went on their Faust tour. I was so diappointed that they were dorks. Cool comic and all...but the dudes were dorks.

Beto Ramirez :

Great pink, Brian!

Brute666 :

I have a Faust poster by Tim Vigil which has the logo done with white-out! It's a full-color offset print. You would think somebody would have touched that up before printing.

Pat. James Longo :

Electric erasers are great but you really need to be working on board not paper. They work on paper but you need a super light touch. http://www.artsuppliesonline.com/catalog.cfm?cata_id=6149
I heard Art Spiegelman talking about how hard it was for him to sell originals because he used a lot of white out.
Practice, practice practice.

JoltedJoel :

what's the dealio with these batterie powered erasers?

2004-10-08 04:30:04

MaximumFluoride :

Speed, confidence, and practice is all it takes. I practiced nightly for 2 years or so before I did any real finished pieces.

GIGART :

I am going to want to come over and watch you guys use them...cause I need a lesson and to see how its done...just can't image getting the detail and exactness...I need to go back and fix things all the time....

JayJaySerious :

No matter how broke I am, I still have to have WN #7's. But if you test them at the store and get good ones with unsplit points, they can last for years if you treat them nice. But I cry for the days when I got them free at work. sigh.

MaximumFluoride :

Battery operated erasers are the best invention ever.

2004-10-07 20:44:43

JoltedJoel :

I switched to brushes a few years ago. They are well worth the time to get reacquainted with your materials. Brian's ink work should be proof enough for that.

2004-10-07 20:36:02

Ewing :

I use stratmore 4 ply cold press bristol board. The ink doesn't sit on the surface so I don't hafta wait for it to dry like hot press. Also the texture is nice and let's me drybrush if I want to. I did some of that with the Melvins poster. Electric erasers help too. I bought a battery operated one for $10 bucks. It gets me out of using whiteout.

Pat. James Longo :

For the most part I use Borden "Paper For Pens." The paper is almost blue so it scans really well (veloxes looked great because of it - r.i.p. the velox machine). What are the paper choices of other brush and pen folk? (Strathmore Kid finish board board when I am doing a water color with brush and ink.)

MaximumFluoride :

I lavish my brushes with love. I clean them well and condition them after every use.
I aint got enough cash to be buying brushes.

2004-10-07 17:06:09

Casey Burns :

wait, i'm not sharing brushes with fisher. just using a 7/4.

2004-10-07 17:01:54

Casey Burns :

this is great. i use that same brush. i treat it like crap, too (i always work until i'm too tired to clean a brush ... so i don't), and i've used the same one for about four years now. totally worth the money.

2004-10-07 17:01:09

MaximumFluoride :

Brian, I am still using the brush you gave me 3 years ago. Still works perfect.

Ewing :

Sign up for my mailing list...nudge nudge wink wink.
Yeah...WN series 7 #4's
Cheap brushes are great to learn on but I go through them too quickly. I'm heavy handed and a bit shaky. The brush is more forgiving than the pen. Each has its limits though. Paper matters as much as what you ink with. I remember Burwell showing me some of his poster art that he had done on a piece of xerox paper...it was amazing but I can't do that. The bristol board I use helps me be retarded and avoid using white out.
I'm not rich...not even close. I just got tired of paying for a bunch of $5 brushes when I could just get one $40 brush that equled in life span.
I'm getting in to full on dork mode now.

DWITT :

my brushes take a beating. I have no attachment to them.
Brian, once you've got these in your hands, please let me know. I do need one. Update your website already!!!

alienate :

girls like pink.

2004-10-07 16:26:49

Pat. James Longo :

I have had one brush since college that has such a sweet shape and tip that I think I will scream (or cry) when it is dead. WN Series 7 hold the shape best and longest. Cleaning those fuckers is key.

2004-10-07 16:22:15

DWITT :

It takes time to learn the touch. I fought it for a year or so. Now a brush in my hand is like a direct link to my mind. Fast acting conduit.
still... $40 a brush?!

2004-10-07 16:10:37

GIGART :

Man...I can't ink with a brush... Don't know how you guys do it...
I use my microns...and draw my lines as if I was using a brush...
I just don't have the touch... I guess I don't have the steady hand to make those perfect lines...with a brush...

2004-10-07 16:05:15

doggydoodle :

Are you using WN Series 7's?

2004-10-07 15:35:14

DWITT :

$40 brushes?!
man, I use $5 brushes for inking. TOPS.
rich bastard.

Great as always Brian.

RichieGoodtimes :

AWESOME!

Ewing :

That's TRACI.... she rocks the pink hair in real life.
I wanted to try inking the outline with a pen this time. All my brushes had been worn out and they cost like $40 bucks a pop. I didn't feel like spending the cash so I busted out the $3 Microns. The hair and face is done with a brush.

Love the illustration.

Casey C-P :

um...there's no skull. (Poster kills, btw...)

2004-10-07 11:24:27

Pat. James Longo :

Great poster. The colors are so perfect for this. The way the arm is covered by the pillow yet the sheets are the same color and pattern is a cool effect.

2004-10-07 10:21:47

Stainboy Reinel :

Pretty soon you'll have to pay a royalty to Ewing if you use pink and black on a single page.
Nice work!

doggydoodle :

Thinner lines? I didn't recognize it as you but still love it!

So damn good. Love the pink.

Dead sexy, this is.
