@VideoGameBear hey Ryan nice work, very impressive.
Do you colour digitally?
Some artists scan textures Such as painted watercolour, then add it under the line work to add variety and take away that flatness. -
@Braden-Hallett thank you Braden! Glad i'm not the only one who struggles

@peteolczyk I've been using photoshop to quickly colour things in but I have heard of that technique you mentioned... I'm trying to force myself away from photoshop at the moment and try something new...

Welcome to the forums, I really like the Evil Twin page.

Welcome! Yeah I'm practicing inking right now, I have a really fun time with the brush pen because you get varying lines as you go. The how to ink videos helped me break into it and gave me good exercises. Watching demos though of other artists using ink is what helped me more. Right now I'm reading a book called "Rendering in Pen and Ink" by Arthur L Guptill. Pretty sure someone on here recommended it so thank you to whomever that was (i totally forgot who it was) but that book covers a lot of pen and ink topics I wasn't even aware of. I highly recommend it, I got it used for $15
