How To Ink 2.0 Group Runthrough Week 1

[Jonas Zavacky]

haha what a thread! Everybody doing the ink exercises. Love to see that! It is challanging and fun. Maybe I will share mine later.

If You wanna get more in depth into inking I definitely recommend Rendering in pen and ink by Arthur Guptill. Excellent book.

@alicia I love the confidence in your lines!

[alicia]

@BichonBistro Thank you! I wish I felt the confidence you see! I am soo used to traditional materials & it’s surprisingly different trying to do this digitally! I have to keep myself from cheating and letting the iPad straighten out my lines for me!

@alicia I hear ya! I was going to try digital, but the "undo" and line-straightening options might be too tempting

Wooo! I'm joining in on this too

Here is some initial line practice on paper I did last night. I'm comfortable with ballpoint pen (And If you follow me on Instagram you can see I use it all the time), so I'm going to do most of my practice from here on with a brush pen.

I can see I can work more on my curves. Particularity the long curves. The sensitivity of a brush pen is new, and I will need some consistent practice with it. But overall I'm happy.
