A big thank you for your advice, especially on the hatchings. Looking back on the sketches, my hatchings aren't well thought out. So that's a big point to focus on together with the rest of your advice.

Also going to get me some of those pens when I have the chance!

Back with lesson 3! Had a fun time with this one, but sometimes my sketches end up too cluttered in my opinion? If I look at your examples they seem so clean.

I'm still having troubles with line weight, I don't know if it's the wrong kind of felt pen or if it just me and I need to practice more.

Took a picture of the pen I'm using now. The left one was a bit too big and not easy to make different lines with it. The right one is quite fun but if I put a lot of pressure on it, it doesn't make a big difference in thickness. What do you think?

Didn't post in a long time and I'm quite behind. Just finished the 250 box challenge with a felt pen that I found. It takes some time getting used to it and it's a bit too thick because it's a 1mm. But here's the album! I'm sorry some of the images are upside down, imgur uploaded them like that and I can't find an option to rotate them.

Challenge!
