I used a Windsor and Newton short bristled brush (I'm not near it now, but I'll give you the size number later- I think it's a zero) and the same brand ink. It seems to cover better with more consistency than Higgins ink. The only pen I used was for my signature: A Koh-i-noor Rapidograph with a #2 tip. I have a rough time with those dip pens because I can only go in one direction with them, and I'm sloppy with them (appropriate for my recent nickname!) The bristol plate I use comes in a pad and is very smooth and white. I'd like to try Illustration board too, but never have. Thanks again!
