What Are The Best Markers

[Zee!]

OTR's, Areosol Art BOMBING marker (they are both the exact same), home mades are great, if you can do it right. It takes a lot of practice and trial and error but you'll eventuall get it. Look on a markers thread.

But which one is good for a first time artist??

first time? go with sharpie magnums or magnum44's, they pretty much the same thing.
get them cause if you just started do you really want to see your old stuff in a couple years/when you get better? just get those, they fade fast so you dont have to worry about seeing crappy old tags.

make home madesss!!!!!!!!&#3 3;!!1


two. 2lt bottle, lots of carpet (low flow), towel, felt, nib.
anything u can fucking use basically.
some sico paint. any color works.
loads of paint + more white spirit (4 us ukers) and w.e u can use as paint thinner/ remover basicaly.
then nib the top of one of the bottle.
cut other directly in half, and use as lid. runci did something like this with a 500ml bottle. 2lters are just dope!

[Kimo13]

[rolling roks]

dont waste ur time they are terriable

[Flash_One]

Expos are dry erase there not even counted as perminent, dont waste your time there probably one of the worst markers out there. I like OTR's and homemades, also empty markers filled with your own ink since i think you cant go wrong... but othe than that i use alot o markers and i dont really care as long as there decent

[Soeffinblack]

or an arid x deoderant ball with a chalkboard eraser nib/mop, aka the NYC bombing mop. if you have ink that is.....

are you fucking stupid? otr and bombing markers have differences, otr has a way better pump system. by the was bombing markers suck ass....

[AyteYourCookies]

pilots are good.

[RaZoR123]

Oh come on...nobody gave the kid any REAL help....here:

1. get this


2.take cap off


3.pull out nib thingy by pulling up on plastic underneath the foam


4.take out penis thingy


5.empty contents


6.clean out nib


6.put in your favorite ink and bam


Now for ink, do this

Ghetto Krink:

2/3 Oil Based Bucket Paint
1/3 Mineral Spirits (paint thinner)

Put that in your Kiwi Mop and your done! Now, you have something to use...got it?

[rolling roks]

um
for the kiwi
its cool if you leave the green penis in
right?
and anybody use ink in there kiwis?

[MASO]

yes, you can leave the green thing in and you'll still get drips. you jus have to keep constant pressure on the nib while writing to make sure the green thing is depressed and letting paint/ink flow.
i don't use ink in my kiwis but thats jus because kiwi nibs suck and when it breaks i wouldn't want to lose a lot of ink since its harder to get for me than paint.

[rolling roks]

hmm
good point bud
i was bout to fill up a kiwi with some inks i just racked today
but i am having second thoughts now....
i need something to put this ink in

[Roolete]

ink works fine, ive had mine for like 6 months and it hasnt broken. udner heavy usage.

and my favorite marker for beginners is this one..OTR.050 (Superpermanent ink marker). buy it off bs. no drips, but its good all around

[caffine]

What stores would carry Pilots?

Also, would wood stain work good in my kiwi mop? I know I'm not tagging trees or plywood, but the can in my house is oil-based and I was hoping it'd work decently until i get actual oil-based paint.
