The Tree People

"The Tree People" finished line work. Pen = Sailor Pro Gear, EF nib. Pilot Black ink. I love this ink... if only it was waterproof. Works well with markers though.

Love your drawing. Beautiful pen. How is the ink different from Noodler's waterproof black?

@stevmorpix Oh! I wouldn't recommend Pilot Black for most artists. It's a traditional ink so it's not waterproof. Noodlers Black is a far superior ink in terms of having archival properties and water resistance. Pilot Black is just a wetter, smoother ink that dries faster, and it's pretty safe to leave in pens for a long time. (I have far too many pens inked up.) I have flow issues sometimes with Noodlers Black so I use it 4 parts ink to 1 part distilled water to flow better in my pens. It's a great ink though for sure, Noodlers Black. I have several bottles of it and I use Noodlers #41 Brown and others as well.
