Eraseable ink!

My wife JAG gets full credit: I love sketching in ballpoint pen. I do most of my thumbnails and layouts with them. I can't even tell you any reason why, but for me they just work well. I use black or red, as the blue is useless and too close to black to separate in PS easily anyway. The other day my wife brought home eraseable ballpoints for me from one of her shopping forays. She thought I might like them. At first I eschewed the notion of using them at all, having remembered them from long long long ago in school when they didn't really erase or work very well. I must say that when I tried one at her urging I was blown away. The ink is great, the variation in line is better than in standard ballpoints I use. They flow really well and as long as you keep it clean the eraser does a good job. I know it's a freakin office implement! But the ones I have simply rock. I'm having fun like a kid sketching in eraseable ink! Just for the record I'm using black Erasermates by paper mate-supposedly the most erasable out there? I think you can even find them at dollar stores. Give them or similar ones a try if you are fond of sketching in ballpoint. I think you'll find them fun and enjoyable as well as great to produce sketch art with. After some more playing with these I might even try drawing a short story with them just to see if it's doable.
