Another experiment with oil-based ballpoint pens. This time I used a very small increment for each line, resulting in very slow progress and some interesting gradients as the ink accumulated in certain sections of the image.

When I've done this in the past, I've used Bic Cristal pens, which apparently shed ink at a much faster rate, as I'd routinely get large blobs of ink falling off of the nib and into the plot. Here I used Bic Xtra-Life and the ink blobs are substantially reduced. Interesting.
