Very nice compact kit! Wish I could get mine to be that small, but I always have more pens I want to try, or just a few colored pencils, or . . .! Maybe someday. You’re an inspiration: you don’t need a lot of materials to capture great sketches.

Thanks Tina, looking at your extensive travel kit I can see where the problem lies! And of course you’ll be finding some wonderful new resources to try in Japan. Have fun! Ed
Very inspiring, I love to see other people´s tools! I find I do the same, simplify, simplify… Except I have started carrying a larger pad in my school bag, which is nice, being able to spread out a little. I think those creditcard-case palettes are so nifty!
Thanks Viktoria, a larger pad is a good idea, my move to A5 from A6 was a definite improvement, room to move! Card case palettes are light, but lack of mixing wells is an issue which is why I moved to a slightly thicker version. I think I’ll do a post on ‘modding’ cases and making palettes soon? Ed
