Yeah thats a good way to say it, its a wounderful color to use.
Sort of like the copics alot of people use but one tube is less than a pen and it does all the cool greys.

What is the brand you use? for watercolor?
SurfTiki's avatar
Well the paper is usally Sathmore 400 series watercolor paper(cotton is better but way more expensive, Fabriano or Cartera Magnani), for the paints i use anything from MaimeriBlu, Holbin, M.Graham, Daniel Smith to Grumbacher Academy and Windsor Newton Cottoman series. the 1st 4 are quite pricey but work amazingly well. the last are cheaper student grade but get the job done.
For brushes i use a series no longer made by Windsor Newton 'Cirrus' Kolinsky Sable, and a newer 'One Stroke' same brand and hair just new and being made. The Kolinsky sable holds the perfect amount of water and paint for watercoloring, tho a squirrl brush isnt bad either but can be a bit floppy.
