Thanks! I think I shade my sketches more freely than I do with the graphic novel I'm working on! I haven't put up many scans of that but I think it's cuz i'm more confident with my pencils than I am with inking.

I think I understand why - I went through a sharpie phase and that really tightened up my lines and forced me to learn how to keep drawing in longer and longer strokes. That in turn developed confidence in my lines and I grew bolder and bolder!

So no pencils at all, ever? I use pencil when I'm trying to work out a new pose I never did before.

i use mechanichal pencils for the lining od the drawing but its very very slim and quick.. its usually a couple of seconds and BAM! i automatically grab the ink pen

It's no wonder your lines are utterly bold and confident! Back in high school I actually told a friend to stop using pencil and stick to sharpie pen when sketching a figure. That led him to develop beautiful strokes and a distinct style all his own.

It's probably because we cannot see the slight or sketchiness to your lines anywhere. They are very clean, almost too clean to be hand-drawn. Thus the computer look (clean and crisp) which is a compliment to your control or command of strokes. Just today I finished a page of Pantheon! WOOHOO

Yes! Too many peeps on deviant art don't know how to ink. Coz their lines are mostly chicken scratches. Your tutorial will help countless of artists without a clue.

I should scan more of my comix but by the time I arrive at my home after long hours o drawing I just want to curl up to an anime and detox.
