Fashion Sketching Tools?

Question

Hey guys,

Does anyone know what kind of pens and pencils fashion designers use when they sketch their ideas? Whenever I see fashion sketches, they always look so cool, and they sorta look like watercolor. What do they use? Can anyone give me the names of the brands?

Thanks!

Answer 1

The ones you see, either ARE watercolor, or are done with color markers, such as the ones produced by Pantone, Design, or other manufacturers. Most art supply and craft stores will carry a good selection of them, in, both fine point and broad markers.

My set used to contain over 200 pens. I have now, gone nearly 100% digital, so my pens have seen little use, the last couple of years.
