If I may ask, when I draw something on photoshop, I have to do the lineart on photoshop after I scan something. Is that what you do too?

I fully agree about inking by hand part. Digital inking is just not the same as when you do it by hand. I always thought the real improvement comes when we draw more by hand, needless to say it is much more relaxing and enjoyable.

As always looking at your work is most inspiring! Thank you for sharing it!

Yes, I still love how inking on paper feels rather than drawing it all digitally. Wonderful work! Thanks for sharing.

It's great to know that there are still those who wish to hold on to traditional methods. And I always love to see artists post their methods up on da. Dig it!
