What kinds of pens are used in hard pen calligraphy?

Hard pen calligraphy can use gel pens, pens, ballpoint pens, etc.

1, gel pen

At present, hard pen writing with gel pen has almost become the mainstream, with smooth ink output and easy control of stroke thickness. So it is easy to get started and has strong operability. Relatively speaking, gel pen is not satisfactory, because the brush strokes fail to reflect the change of shade, and the thickness change of brush strokes is smaller than that of pen. There are relatively few pens used at present.

Generally speaking, the performance of gel pen refills exceeding 0.5cm becomes weak, and it is impossible to write the desired thread binding effect. Gel pens suggest that you choose between 0.7 and 1. 1. You can buy some refills of various models and thicknesses according to your own feelings to adapt to the thickness of the refills.

2. pen

Pen has always been a veteran of hard pen calligraphy writing tools, and the writing process itself is the process of continuous running-in between writers and writing tools. Pen has a long service life and has natural advantages in the running-in process with users.

The biggest advantage of a pen is that it can write an effect close to that of a brush. First of all, the thickness of the nib changes more widely. Needless to say, there are fine art pens, which can write thick strokes, and the thickness of lines can be changed by changing the contact between the nib and the paper.

3, ballpoint pen

Needless to say, there are too many ballpoint pens. Because they are marginalized, few people use them. Mainly because of its poor writing experience, there is a gap compared with pens and gel pens. Because its refill is too oily and sticky to write. In addition to the increase of writing times, the strokes of ballpoint pens will become thicker and thicker, and due to the characteristics of oily ink itself, the color of ballpoint pens will often be lighter.
