THE LIEBER LIST
Our buddy Steve Lieber, artist extraodinaire on the mini series WHITEOUT from Oni Press was kind enough to share the following suggestions for art supplies with us.
Steve's list:
- 14"x17" pads of Srathmore 2-ply Bristol paper,
both rough and smooth finish.
- Any brand of tracing paper that's sold at 11"by 17"
- Higgins Black Magic ink.
- Faber "color-ease" non-repro blue pencils.
- Berol turquoise pencils from 5h through 2b
(H= hard, B= soft)
- Keaded erasers
- Magic rub erasers
- Koh-i-noor rapidograph technical pens.
For lettering, I recommend the
- #2 (.60mm) for regular letters
- #4(1.2mm)(1.2mm) for boldface.
- Pigma Micron permanent ink markers.
( black ink only.)
- Ames lettering guide
- Winsor-Newton series 7 sable brushes,
The best sizes are probably the #2 and #4
- Hunt 102 crowquill pens.
- 18' metal ruler
- 24" metal t-square
- plastic drafting triangle
----------------------------
Well- there's a start. I hope it's of use to some of you.
Please checkout Steve's website and if your local shop has made the mistake of not carrying WHITEOUT, please send us your order and we'll get them to you post haste (I think that's french for priority mail !) .
