okay quick question, is it lineart or line art? I don't even know anymore-
Also, felt tip pens are also known as fineliners, apparently. ovo)9

Hi. Power was out for the entire day and when it finally came back, my internet decided it was its turn to die on me : ' )
And so, here's what I made out of boredom haha it's not much, but maybe it could be helpful for someone...somewhere out there.

I've been drawing for a while now, and here's an analysis on all the different lineart/inking tools I frequently use to this day!
I used pretty thin papers for the traditional mediums to easily see through them to trace the pencil sketch. I highly recommend using thicker paper (minimum 160gsm?) when drawing, especially with gel pens, felt tips, and nib pens since they tend to bleed; all the more if you exert a lot of pressure when inking.

Of course, results may still vary with other factors especially with different brands. But I tried to make the analysis for each pros and cons as objective as I could. 'v'; )9

And as a final note and reminder: While the quality of your tools may improve your art's quality to a certain extent, it will not miraculously boost your skills. Whether you decide to settle on a cheap pen or a more expensive one, it still all boils down to your own skills to create the art.

So, which of these do you use? Which inking/lineart tool is your favorite and least favorite? Do you know of any other tools? 'v')/ Lemme know in the comments~

For now, I'll get back to work and I hope you have a nice day ahead!
