Do you letter with the same nib you draw with? What type of nibs do you favour? And sorry if you hate "tool" questions, I just like to know that sort of thing...
Yes, I letter with the same pen nib. I don't know the name. They usually last pretty long. Six, seven years. What usually happens is I drop the pen on the floor and the tip breaks, then I panic, rushing to the art store and trying to find the exact same nib I already had.
Some handlettering for newspaper headlines found in the Bukowski story in Athos in America.
