You've convinced me to buy the identipen. I've been using a Sharpie oil-based paint marker which has worked pretty well but the ink is sometimes too thick or patchy.

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! even after doing 8 paintings I couldn't understand why my lines were cracking even tho I was using a paint marker, even after I got different ones. I definitely see it's most likely bc the acrylic paints I have are very liquidy

[@Theartofkirkabrigo]

Exactly. Also if you’re using acrylic paints to color, do not use paint markers to do your lines. The lines will be distroyed. Use an oil based sharpie or a Sakura identipen.

[@gojosatoru3493]

[@hiandbye._.1125]

What’s the paint called????

Thank you for showing how different pens work for glass painting. I think these glass paintings look so beautiful and wanted to try it out myself. When I looked around a lot of people recommended Posca pens so I got those, but whatever technique I used to paint - I did try the dabbing - it always smudged which was super frustrating especially when it smudged underneath a very bright color. I ordered an Identi pen now and hope they will work better *crosses fingers*

[@Theartofkirkabrigo]

Posca pens are THE WORST thing to use for glass art. Great for other things. But not for glass art. Oil based sharpie or identipen will do the trick.
