Fantastic work there, looks really good. Can I ask you a question? What method do you use to keep your rapidograph pens clean and how often do you clean them? I have several smaller size (0.25) and have considered trashing them because there are so hard to keep clean.

@nudnik1123 I use an ultrasonic cleaner. Without that using the finer nibs would be wasteful. They cost around a hundred bucks, worth every penny. I had mine for around 15 years. I clean my pens every few months.

this type of drawing is called "doodeling" right?

[lakaumbucha]

@mergim100 That's what I've always called it.

@duschhead I'm drawing whats in my head.

I think doodling is a lot of times harder than drawing a portrait. Everything comes from your head.

[nudnik1123]

@lakaumbucha Wow, thanks......never thought to use an ultrasonic but you can bet I will be using one now.
