Yeah thats key I think, not satisfying the editor as much as the penciler. I work for them in my mind.

Freaking fantastic, man. I inked this thing too, but you totally kicked my butt all over the place. I just didn't have the guts to add and embellish as much as you did here, but it really, really works.

I never try to trace a piece, now I know a lot of pencilers want that, forgetting that inkers are artists too.

I always add and change a lot when it's my own stuff - if nothing else, I think it's silly to try and get a brush to behave like a pencil. They're different tools and should be treated as such. But when I'm inking over someone who can draw circles around me, like in this case, it's hard to convince myself to say, "I need to change this, it'll look better."

Just go for it I say and let the chips fall where they may. Its the only way to see what works and what doesnt.

Yeah. I also need to go snooping around for hi-res pencils on here more often to get used to this. Plus it's excellent practice that my own stuff will benefit from.

Yeah, same here. Aside from the interaction and collaboration with other artists, it's just also a huge motivator for me.

so gooood. this might be one of my favorite inks youve done so far. I really like the heavy lines all over. and those weird branch vine things going up are awesome. this is too intimidating for me to attempt painting lol.

I prolly should have defined things a little more. the main thing I like that I did was the halo effect because it brought out the main character.

I love it!!!!!! Your linework adds a level of softness I never would have thought of. Thanks. But... don't forget about a subte add of aggressiveneess in the undertone. Thanks I think is so inspinrational that you found time to make my day.

Man thank you so much for commenting really means a lot to me as an inker. I think I know what you mean, I should have made things a little harder to contrast against the softer side but I think I made everything too soft. When I ink another of yours im going to use a more of a combination of quill and brush instead of just brush. Love your pencils.
