The papal outfit had me wheezing, genuinely funny. The few black lines on the face really accentuated the absurdity of the facial expression, kind of a "less is more" thing and I think you nailed it. I love this.

Fantastic! I'm especially pleased to see how you've been loosening up from the first prompt through the second, and really hitting your stride with these last two.

Thank you comfy! I find great enjoyment in these prompts, and they help reminding me why it's fun to draw!

A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.

In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
