Nice job for a first brush job. Was it a paintbrush and inkwell or a brush-nib pen? When I first started inking with a brush I was using India ink and a paintbrush. What a pain! The new brush-nib pens make it a lot more convenient although the technique is still much the same. I would imagine the inkwell is still useful for spatter and sponge techniques except that I've never gotten around to working with those techniques.

Thanks!

It was actually a paintbrush and inkwell, I like the brush pens, but the last one I used ran out of ink SUPER fast, of course that was over 10 years ago so they might be better now. This image is kind of old, I've actually moved on to using crow quill nibbed dip pens as well as brushes... although I'm still getting the hang of it.

Oh wow, you got it... and urg... you got a whole bunch from me... see, DA was screwed up for some reason and I actually wasn't seeing any comments on that pic at all -- including mine, but now that I see there were a bunch on there before me, well... lets just say I was horribly frustrated with DA at that moment.

Anyway... you mean the old-fashioned calligraphic pens that use the inkwell. I've tried that style before, although I've gone with the ones that use an ink cartridge inside the pen rather than the inkwell... they don't seem to do it for me -- but then it's been a while since I've tried them too... I've been using mostly the Pigma brand brush nibs made by Sakura recently and they're really nice pens, although I've been having a different issue with these than the brush nibs I used to use, which were sumi "scrapbooking" brushes. The sumis I used to use seemed to run out of ink quickly like you said -- the pigmas on the other hand last a good long while in terms of ink but unfortunately the brush nibs (felt?) have a real penchant for tearing which frequently causes double-lines when I'm trying to draw a fine line... really frustrating. But in general I really like the overall effect of brush inking which is why I stick with it.

Cool. Yeah, I've been meaning to pick up some of those felt tip brushes for convention sketching where an ink pot is just an accident waiting to happen.

I used to swear by micron pens and I still use them a bit now, (mostly for small circles) but once I really got the hang of inking with a brush and a dip pen there was no going back... it's a million times better.

DA can suck sometimes when it comes to posting.

yeah, inking with a brush is definitely worth the learning curve -- I'm still undecided if that's true of Deviant Art.

Good job for a first brush job. Was it a brush-nib pen or a paintbrush and an inkwell? When I first started inking with a brush I was using India ink in a well and a paintbrush -- what a pain! The newer brush-nib pens make it so much more convenient although the technique doesn't change much. Of course the ink well is still useful for spattering and sponge techniques except that I've never gotten around to working with those techniques.

Interesting piece (unless there is one and I missed it...) A colour version of this would be amazing! Excellent attention to lines and details.
