i just bring black pen and a zig calligraphy marker. So i can get thin lines and thicker blocks of blacks. Colours can be added later in photoshop.

AnnGee I have emailed u. chk mail.
Anyway - its quite subjective since everybody works differently. So if you have some time- play with your paints as suggested in the email so tht u can find what works for u.

The 3 best thing I can ask u to bring is:
1. a piece of cleaning rag
2. the "Seiji endorsed" water brush!!
3. Drawing clips

Haha. Angee, I always bring my waterbottle, tissue paper, one brush, watercolour palette, nib pen, and ink. Won't fail you one. Waterbottle and tissue, so you can wash your brushes and wipe off water, and also to drink and wipe off perspiration. HAHA.

Eh. Sketch trip soon leh. Lol.
