Description
What can I say? When I got this page I thought to myself WOW this is insane, then I put it to the side for two days. Once I came back to it i said the same thing again and repeated the previous step.....LOL! I eventually built up the never to tackle the piece and had fun doing it.Related content

heh nother instant ref, I bought a nice book on inking, "the art of comic book inking" I think is the title, but man this is way better then anything in that book. Although it is for learning inking, learning on something like this would be frustrating

You know I'm all for learning material but I haven't found a book that I found all that helpful when it comes to inking. They seem to be out dated in terms of style and technique. I think as far as inking goes the best way to learn is by watching. You get a better understanding of how lines are created. I grew leaps and bounds when I was able to sit with Chance Wolf (the guy I learned from) and watch his hand movement, how fast he threw a line or when he chose to pull a line. All that stuff matters and I don't think a book teaches that.
Most of all with inking you have to stay constantly curios and a patient. Keep an open mind and try many different things and tools.

I'm actually starting with learning to draw, inking seems to me an extension of drawing so I want to start at the beginning. I really like drawing for the speed of realizing an idea. I want to compliment you again, I'm not exaggerating, its the best inking I have ever seen, Thanks for sharing with us

it's a conspiracy I tell you - you all want Nei to have a nervous breakdown colouring it!
I'd love a high res for myself though!

Well I thought about that for a minute but shitting ones self is never fun, so I settle for just taking my time.
Thanks.

I worked on it in between my other pages over a course of like three days I think.

I think I would have done the same thing.. xD;; but you did a great job! BADASS, is all I can think of to say. How long do you think it took to finish the job?

Thanks.
worked on it over a three day period in between other pages to avoid going crazy.

I could see why

Typically I work faster than that. I don't want to be miss leading. It's a bit of a stretch to be able to spend three days on a page. What i've learned over the years is you have to pick your battles. The realistic goal is one page a day.
When I was new to inking I remember being at Todd McFarlane's house and I had explained how I was getting frustrated that I wasn't fast enough. He told me it was because my rolodex wasn't full yet so to speak. Meaning over the years you build up in your knowledge how you are going to handle certain things and inking almost becomes an afterthought.

Well I did factor in that you said you worked on it 'between other pages' :]
Ahh.. yeah, that makes sense

Totally insane, but absolutely amzing. That's the kind of detail I'm going to be putting into my next issue.

get ready to lose some sleep and drink lots of coffee....hahaha.

Ooh, that'll be a tricky one for me. I'm intolerant to caffiene. Luckily I subsist on about 3 hours sleep a night and I enjoy drawing detail. I just spend so long inking it that it becomes a chore, hence why I will NEVER be an inker, hahahaha!
I think I'm intolerant to caffiene because my body makes its own...freaking insomnia sometimes.
