Hello! Friends,


Would anyone know what kind of paper for used by Sir Andre Franquin, also what was the typical size of the paper.

Other than color pencils were any other mediums were used by him?

Any alternate medium for coloring ?

I heard Ecoline liquid watercolor from Royal Talens is a popular media, but it is available only in Europe

Also I see a picture of Mr Franquin using something like T-Square what is this instrument called and where is it used?

I appreciate your help. Also since I having problems with French Language my apologies if this is the right place to post queries.

Regards
Kunal

I have found some answers in this book :

http://www.amazon.fr/Franquin-Jij%C3%A9-cr%C3%A9ateurs-bande-dessin%C3%A9e/dp/2873930233
It's a very intersting books with a lot of drawings and photographies.


For the paper :
Use the best paper you can.
Franquin used to draw "small". He explains about the size of his sheets : "Ça représente une fois et demi la grandeur des planches telles quelles apparaissent imprimées. = the sheets he draws on are 1.5 bigger than the printed sheet.

About the material, you may know that :

The picture you put in your message is a tool used to draw the lines for the texts. I don't know its name.
