I have been trying to get out of my comfort zone and trying to get more into pen and ink. I got some pen nibs but the last ink well I bought I accidentally got blue ink instead of black. I did still have some black ink but it was a sucky brand that I can't even remember. The ink was sticky in some way and just didn't flow well... even after I watered it down a bunch and it started losing it's opaqueness before it got thinned out enough. Anyway that's why there's a blue tint to this picture.

Apparently I stil didn't have all the things I needed to do a real inking since the correction fluid I have here sucks... it lays on thick and leaves a rough surface that doesn't even match the paper's white.Also it is 9 years old >.>;. Penning over it was horrid and after that one time I used it I decided to try my best to not get anymore mistakes done. There is still a lot of mistakes in the line work and tried my best to do tricks I heard to cover up the mistakes with more ink but I am pretty noobish at real inking at the moment. Sure I can just do some digital inking but I wanna learn the real stuff.

I still like the way the pic came out... except for Tewi's face and the hand on her shoulder but i'll still display it anyway :P.

Items used: 4h pencil, Higgins blue ink, Speed ball pen nibs, Eraser

Note to self: Get better correction fluid. Try different paper.

Yeah, I hear that.
That's why I digitally ink.
It's quicker to correct pencil mistakes, and you don't have to fool around with inks or white out.

Yea I like digital inking but I think it would be a good skill to have to know how to use real pens :P.

But.. of course... CTRL Z FTW XD

And even though I would LOVE to learn how to ink properly, my hands aren't really steady enough for it.
