what tools do you use for inking? i really find brushes messy any alternative?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
For inking this or in general? I usually use a Pentel pocket brush pen with refillable cartridges. For this piece I only used tech pens

Really? did you use any reference? and can I have some tips on armor and shading? I am an atist at line drawing and shading is my weak point.

Shading is a very tough thing to grasp, its always been hard from me. You really have to study light source, and form of the object the light is falling on. Then usually texture plays into how the light falls on the object.
I suggest finding artists who you think have incredible shading skills and just taking mental notes. Also the best way to learn is to study from life. The more you do that the more likely you are to get realistic lighting across

Dear lord! You are an inking god! This looks CGed, and that's reeeeeaaaaally hard to pull off. I think this is wonderful. You should do more WIP processes or aven a tutorial on how you go from black paper to this. I really am curious.

Hahah thanks. Ill try to do more

Very nice. I think the slightly differing proportions really help sell it. Is there a reason the heavy guy is the only one whose weapons disappear out of the frame? It kinda draws attention to his feet being cut off.

Ya I ran out of paper haha
Thanks!

These are for a Players Guide for an RPG in the works. Theyre examples of different armor types, Heavy, Medium and Small.
