Description So this is my workflow when I paint my sumi/watercolor combo paintings.
After this, I scan it in, and combine it with my mom's awesome calligraphy.

This is a painting done on a sketch that was rejected as a commission. I just thought I'd use it to make a little step by step (well, it's not that detailed, but..)

Hope you enjoyed it.

I love this tutorial, do you use a brush or a Gpen to ink?

Hi! Thank you so much
I use a regular old thin watercolor brush for the lines. I think you can see a couple of them on the background of some of the tiles above. I used to use a thin oriental calligraphy brush, but I just realized I can make the same sort of lines with any kind of pointy thin brush

It just amazing how you do this kinda of art!!! It really reminds me of the dynasty/samurai warriors games.

As usual..pretty impressive...
Sumi color...sounds interesting..will check it out in the nearby stores..slim chances of finding it but will give it a try...

Yeah, when you look at it, sumi has a shine to it when it's strait out of the bottle, and it feels a little warmer.
Although, digitally, the difference is totally meaningless maybe... haha
