I have a question, http://344design.typepad.com/ watch any of this guys videos and please tell me what kind of ink and/or paint he dabs at the beginning. All I know is its thick enough to be applied with a paintbrush, but fluid enough to be spread by blowing through a straw. Ive mixed a few of my paints and inks together in different ratio, and Ive tried different inks and paints on their own but I cant get that golden viscosity.

I'm pretty sure that's just regular old india ink. If you want to try it out yourself, you should be able to pick up a small bottle for about 3 bucks at any art store like Michael's or Hobby Lobby. Try using thicker paper, like bristol board or illustration board, if you're having trouble getting it to stay on the surface long enough to move around.

I may have tried india ink, but the paper definitely wasnt bristol quality so I'll give that a shot. thanks

Not really a question but on observance that someone can maybe shed light on. I bought a box of ten crayola markers but the box holds eleven markers.
