Yeah, I was actually in the Artist Alley this year. Definitely a learning experience for myself. I *might* stop over at NYCC in February if I'm not too busy and I plan on being in the Alley at WW Philly, so I'm sure I'll run into you at some point.

Very clean inking. I'm sure the colorist will apply cast shadows to the final. I do have a question though: are inkers no longer doing red lines?

Thanks for the compliment.As far as your question I think with digital colors there really is no need for that anymore.

JTampa In reply to madman1 [2008-11-21 14:45:57 +0000 UTC]

That's what I thought. It's changed quite a bit since the advent of Photoshop color. There are times when I'd love to get back into this.

You do some fantastic inking! Do you use a combination of quill & tech pens with a brush. or is it all brush? It's fantastic whatever you use.

I use just about anything I can get my hands on.With this one it was mainly tech pens,with some nib work.I also had to use some dishes and glasses for the circles since I didn't have templates big enough.

I used to love and hate those tech pens, and can certainly relate to the small circle templates. Good stuff!
