Another one from the crypt: As you can see drawing is a few years old. I did this one for a workshop invitation for TV and video operators. It’s based on a photo I shot. From the way it’s sketched it looks like I used a ball pen. Possibly the Uniball Micro.

For me this computer is an icon: The Apple Macintosh Classic. I never owned one of myself (I started with a Power Macintosh 6100). I was in a retro mood today. So I sketched the mac with Sharpie and Copic markers.

I think we mostly covered all the basic pens you need for your simple sketches. So before we come to the more advanced drawing tools there is one I want to mention too: The german Schwan-Stabilo Point 88. I don’t like them too much, because I feel like they are too thin for my hand and the felt tips are a bit to fragile for me. But they are very popular and like the Sharpies it’s almost a cult pen. I guess especially girls love the thin shape of a pencil. They are around one dollar each. The fact that they are available in almost every color, at least 20 I think, makes them a good choice for scribbles with colors e.g. for street artist’s graffiti black book.

San Diego again welcomes all comic enthusiast at the Comic Con from July 21 to 23. We are happy to see SD turning into Gotham-Metropolis-Outerspace for one weekend. I won’t make it to CC this year, but I will definitely make a walk through Downtown to meet a few superheroes. Have fun at the Convention Center and if you’re not there: Come next year!

I was in the mood to draw our famous two feds (or whatever they’re working for) in classic black suits and black shades.
