@andyg you clearly have a lot of experience working with ink ! these are super detailed and rich, what size do you work at? I tend to use sign pens, sharpies, a brush pen and copics in my sketch book, is that about the same for you?
-
@bursaroo thanks! I tend to draw larger than I ink at. So draw at A3, then photograph, shrink to A4 then ink at A4 for these single pieces. Makes it quicker to ink. I do do A3 inks but they take about 18 hours to complete.
I use a carbon platinum fountain pen for fine line and cross hatching. And just this week picked up the Pentel brush pen @Jake-Parker uses...I usually use brush and ink, but get really annoyed that either I can’t get it fine enough or doesn’t hold enough ink for a good line. And I’ve only found one ink I actually liked...which has just run out. I used to use a zig brush pen, but it was like using a marker with a flexible end. So needing a new brush and new ink, and as I had a load of material needed buying I thought it worth the risk having seen Jake use his...and I love it! Complements my fountain pen brilliantly.

Inktober day 23:juicy.1950s Enid blighton book style.
Back at the start of October I said I was going to use this for promotion. Well someone got In Touch today asking if I could illustrate their story because they’d seen my inktober work. And could I do 1950s style. Well why not?
