Hi! I have a question for you... I was looking through your drawings and you do such a beautiful job inking your stuff. So I was wondering if you could just really quickly tell me how you do it, and what types of pens you use 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I use micron pens. I first outline my sketch with the thinnest pen(.05 usually) and then erase the sketch. Then I have to go back over my inking because some of the ink will have been erased away (using a kneaded eraser will prevent this). Then I take a .3 pen and do what I call using "weighting lines". This is pretty much a trademark where I bring out areas that need to be emphasized or where there will be a a lot of shadow. I make the line a little more bold.
That's pretty much it. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Oh, thank you so much!
One more quick question... When I ink things, the ink seems to be... not even... like, the lines aren't consistent. Do you ink them in small segments or all in just one go? and how much pressure do you put? realize this will all take lots of practice, and I really appreciate you answering my questions soooooo much! thanks again!

I do not use much pressure but I have a steady hand. This will help in having a consistent line. More pressure can actually damage the nib of your pen.
