                        @chrisaakins I'm starting to think it's an Inktober right of passage to burn through pens. Makes me feel like I'm part of a secret club. Where do I find 20, 30 and 40% grays? I struggled with the lack of midtone, and crosshatching and ink wash filled the gap for some, but I'd love a marker or pen that does it. Which pens do you use?

                          @charitymunoz try ink, it gets you any midtone mixed with water 😉 All midtones for the price of one. Sorry, joking. Have you tried markers? Copic has a wide range of cold, neutral and warm grays. Maybe this is a new topic.

                            @charitymunoz @Meta I used ink washes last year. You just thin out the ink like watercolor and go for it. The trick is to build up the values slowly with multiple layers of watery ink to get the values you want. This year I wanted a little more control so I used Blick's version of Copic markers. They had a warm grey set and a cool grey set. They did run out though and I had to resort to digitally coloring them in the end. (They ended up looking cleaner that way, too. Sigh. )

                              @chrisaakins @charitymunoz This is basically what I did this Inktober. I'd just like to not that there is ink, which dissolves in water once dried; and indian ink which stays as it is. For this technique you need indian ink, otherwise you wash away your drawing or painting with every new layer.
                              Chris, I saw both of your coloring techniques. And liked more the copic version. Good thing about the digitally colored illustrations is that you don't loose color information with fotography. If it is better when looking cleaner, or less clean, is a question of taste and the story you want to tell, I guess.
