Love to know what you used for this - not dip pens, I think - rapidograph?  Fineliners?  And do you work at speed, or does it take you as long as it would probably take me (eg, sort of forever)?

Hi Robert .....no dip pens, for Conway I used an 01 Staedtler pigment liner fibre tip pen as I did it while watching TV in the lounge...I would normaly use a ,10 Rotring isograph but the good lady won't allow them in the house as they have a habit of leaking.  Nice thing about pen & ink is yu can do it in any light. For my every day journal writing and sketching I use a Rotring EF Artpen with cheap black ink cartridges.
