You really don’t need much to get started with . You can start with a normal ball point pen and a piece of paper that you have lying around the house. Of course, normal household pens and plain old paper will not be as rewarding as a professional set, but at least you can get started right away.

Here are some suggestions for popular pens to check out once you are ready to buy:
Rotring Rapidograph Pen


Rotring Sketching Art Pen

Here are some suggestions for your pen and ink paper:
Strathmore 400 Series Drawing Paper
