Imgur flagged the post as breaking the community guidelines…? I assume this is an automated classifier that has misclassified my submission as banned content, so there’s a chance posting the same images again will result in another post takedown. Regardless, I have re-uploaded the images to this link, for as long as this link lives…

Tried to focus as much as possible on the feedback provided. I greatly appreciate how in-depth the critique was.
To note: the extremely varied line thickness is a result of me changing how I hold my pencil, as I used to hold pens like a degenerate for most of my life (it would smudge things done in pencil when drawing and it was much harder to draw ellipses). I find it a little difficult to get the weight right while adjusting (and sometimes swapping between grips by accident), and sometimes it results in very thin lines. This still shows up a little in this submission, namely the solo sunflower (that doesn't really look like a sunflower...). I am actively working on it :)
Thank you so much!
This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.
Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
