Description
As part of the Alice in Wonderland project I'm working on (see Kickstarter page: www.kickstarter.com/projects/6… ), we had to decide what the "new" Alice would look like. Here are some of the preliminary sketches, all done with a Pentel brush pen. That pen is a wonderful, portable tool, but it definitely takes practice. It's great for making quick, expressive drawings. I was getting pretty good with it when I did these, but I've since gotten a bit rusty.Click to expand to full size!

Nice control of the brush. I use the Kuretake one from time to time and it's still impossible for me to be so consistent especially with thin lines.

It definitely takes a lot of practice. I'm in awe of the people who are REALLY good with it (Berni Wrightson for one)

Love the way your brush strokes just suggest the fabric, leaving the brain to fill in so much more.
