Inktober - Nibs and Strokes

#inktober #nibs #stroke #inktober2018

when you look at these images spare a moment to praise and blessing whoever did the hard work of creating code for vector objects to develop the pen tools in #inkscape and #gimp and other software

before we had software or marker pens or adjustable settings  there were inter-exchangeable sets of metal nibs ...

Inktober - Once there were NIBS !

ONCE THERE WERE NIBS !

Once upon a time before software and svg vector objects and paths and digital pens or even makers one had to have a variety of metal nibs and an holder or have a strong steady hand and a "crow" quill or use a refillable fountain pen to INK !

Who else had or still has one of these#speedball #manuals ?

Or a few of these?
