so, if you do the lineart on paper, then how do you create a layer under it to colour it! it wouldnt have a transparent background like that!
π: 0 β©: 2
There's a thing some art programs have called "Channels".
They're basically different ways of showing the picture/layer, One of which that's called a "Multiply" channel, which turns a color more transparent the brighter it is.
Now, there's many other channels, and some that can do the opposite, but the multiply channel is probably what he used.
The great part about them is it still sees the darker and lighter parts of the paper so you can keep the papers awesome texture, or in this case... a coffee stain on the 6th panel.
If you ever use any art program they'll be your best friend if you do it on paper then scan it.
Hope this was helpful!

I like it when people give hand writing a shot in their comics. Sure typing the letters is nice, but when you hand write something, it shows uniqueness,originality, and lots of heart and soul.

//raises hoof You've probably answered this one before and I'm just being ignorant, but what kind of pens do you use? And how much are they, and how long does one usually last for a comic like this? Because I'm also interested in making art this way since my digital art is a lot more crappy than my traditional one.

Faber-Castell PITT artist pens.
I can usually use one pen to ink several comics (except wide brushes and chisel tips, which lay out much more ink).
I always buy a pack that comes with sizes XS, S, F, M, 1.5, B, SC, and SB. I use all those sizes regularly. The pack costs about $35.
Since my very first comics on dA, I've only had to replenish two packs. These pens go a loooooong way.

May I please ask what paper size and what type of paper you use for drawing?
π: 0 β©: 1
Hammermill, 90 brightness, 8.5" by 11" printer paper.
After experimenting with a number of different brands and whatnot, I found that one to be ideal for pencil and ink.

So, isΒ the reason your comic has high resolution isΒ not because you use large paper, but because of good scanner?

My drawings are actually a fair size, but they scan in 300dpi, making it far bigger.

Oh, that explains it. Thank you for your answers.

From the opacity of that coffee stain, it looks like you take your coffee pretty strong!
