  5. #AskFedi - fine-point writing on whiteboards?

    I recently started using a whiteboard calendar, i.e. a grid with small rectangles for each day. So now I have a use for thin little drywipe pens.

    Thinnest type I've found is Edding 361, which comes in various colours and is working fine for a lot of things.

    However! Sometimes I want to add some tiny notes in an unobtrusive colour, not distracting from the overview of the calendar. I was thinking grey, but the Edding pens don't include a grey, and the thinnest grey I've found is still a bit too wide. Ideally it would write about as narrow as a sharpened pencil.

    What else could I use to write on a whiteboard, even if it wasn't quite as easy to rub off? Does anyone do a really thin grey in water-soluble overhead projector pens? How about grey chinagraph? Or is there some other kind of arty pen or pencil that I don't know about?

  11. Je ne suis pas morte ! Mais j'avoue que c'est compliqué d'être partout en étant nulle part et en préparant le retour également (il reste un mois et une semaine avant qu'on ne mette le véhicule dans le container :shibashock: )(et il faut que je gère la chaleur, ça j'ai du mal X'D).
    Pour la peine, voici une petite illustration dans un carnet que j'aime et j'adore, qui me permet de travailler sur un nouveau projet en parallèle (surtout de me donner une ligne conductrice pour des illustrations).
