Description
After watching Howl's Moving Castle two times in a row I couldn't help but sketch a bit. Each Hayao Miyazaki movie is an inspiration to me C: No matter which movie they're all magical and surreal~This was sketched and inked traditionally using a 0.5 pencil and 0.2 fineliner.
It was then scanned and coloured digitally in Photoshop Elements 6.
Character design of Howl belongs to Studio Ghibli
Howl concept belongs to Diana Wynne Jones

i think at the end of the movie Sophie made Howl realize his own beauty seeing as he complimented her rather than himself XD

well this one i didnt colour with pens but mine are Promarkers, letraset markers and tria markers. They're like copics but less water based so theyre more like permanent markers :/
and for pens I have an assortment of PIGMA graphic fineliners and STAEDTLER pigment liners ranging from 0.7, 0.5, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, and 0.05
for fineliners there aren't really any "good ones" just make sure you dont press to hard on the nib and they'll all last you a good while.
and for the markers I still have yet to try them but I heard copic markers are the best since they are more watery so you can blend more easily but my promarkers are ok C:
