This is the first time I've seen a vid in dA. Thanks for the tut. Sometimes, it's a lot better to explain through a vid than words and a few pics.

Don't worry, you don't talk too much. Better more information than less.

"Alright, cool."

That's as much of a Sanchez-trademark as the Booms!

Sol-Caninus In reply to ??? [2010-02-06 16:56:12 +0000 UTC]

So! You do use quill and brush! Show us! You take finesse to another level in the way how you build up the lines. This is something to practice!
(P.S. - What's more old school than blue pencil?)

I think the key here is confidence. I know that many times I'll do a pencil sketch that I'm proud of then try and take a pen to it and come out feeling like I've messed up my piece. Thanks for the tips! They're really helpful!

Great tutorial man, i`m always kind of afraid to ink my pencil drawings, just cause i think i may mess it up and i would have to start all over and i`m not much of a start over kind of guy.lol
but every now and then i get the cojones to ink it and usually i`m happy with the result. hey, i also feel like a dush, i didn`t know what those bevels were for on the french thingy. thanks for taking the time to throw a few things our way.

Dude, THANK YOU! That's all I can say. You answered three questions I had in the first two minutes. I do the slow thing to and it always frustrated me that I would end up with a bunch of dips in my lines. I started of with quill (and could turn out a pretty decent piece) but I always ended up with a big ink splat somewhere (usually in the middle...lol)on the piece so I quit for the longest time. I just recently discovered ZIG's and have been trying to get back into it. Thank you again.
