Save Money on Costly Wacom Nibs with Spaghetti

Art student finds a way to help broke artists.

Brittany Botehlo, an 18 year old self-taught digital painter from Dallas, Texas, found a perfect way to save money on Wacom nibs. It appears that spaghetti is as good for your art as the costly official nibs. When cooking spaghetti, Brittany decided to put a small piece in her Wacom tablet pen. It turned out that the joke works!
Some doubters didn’t believe Brittany, so she had to record a small video to prove the power of spaghetti. 

Brittany claims spaghetti “works pretty well” and she used it a few times already. This drawing, for a example, is a pure spaghetti art.

    I'm sure people get it's more meant as a joke. I wouldn't risk the Wacom tablet even if I had the spagetti.

    don't use spaghetti, it WILL scratch your screen! and if it doesn't scratch your screen, it MIGHT break inside the pen. PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS, repairing a tablet screen that has been scratched costs WAY more than buying a replacement nib, don't risk it! it is TERRIBLE for your tablet!
