Description I'm asked, and I answer that question at least eight thousand times every day. XD

I'm hoping this might answer the question for anyone who's thinking of asking.

-Faber-Castell PITT artist pens.
-Sometimes the grey Staedtler pigment liners.

That there is like... $130 worth of pens.

There are two of 'em in this picture. XD

You can only see the "B" on one of them, though.

Of course, you have an advantage over me with the varying degrees of tip and thicknesses of the lines with your pens.

How I do my lineart is I use a regular pen that you could find basically anywhere for about 30 cents or less, and I use it to detail the pencil lines I've made after I've decided that they're fine where they are (just like anyone else if they do this). Lately I've been using a red gel-pen I found to do work for blood (best demonstrated with my pictures "Pinkie DIE" and "Journals of the Dead").

Ah, so you do your lineart manually instead of on a program like PS?

You must have steady hands. I don't have steady hands. My hands are sporadic.

I asked how do you make your art, like scan the paper since it is dark ink. But wow, lots of pens :3
