Description Inks finished!

I use a collection of technical pens and black markers to do my inking. Can't really use the more professional tools such as brushes and nib pens because of my "migrant" schedule, so I make do with what I have.

Item of note: while it' a straight edge, Psylocke's sword is drawn using the style of Nobuhiro Watsuki, known best as the creator of Rurouni Kenshin (Samurai X).

Watsuki is a hardcore admirer of Marvel/X-Men.

That was part of the reason I emulated his sword drawing style.

He was pretty much the Jim Lee of Japan, when doing Rurouni Kenshin.

Ooooh, that's gotta hurt. Still, I can think of uglier ways to go down...

Thanks! Inking is an interesting discipline-- I'm still working on getting my lines to having the same kind of energy that my pencils have.

Your welcome. I just started using a Sharpie pen and I made the lines look just like my pencil lines.
