Description
Some testing and practice I have been doing with a few brands of pens. This one was done with a 0,05 Filgo.
Multiliners have very little natural lineweight in comparison to nib pens, specially when using the smallest sizes, but it's still possible to achieve an interesting look by doing the first tracing and then adding volume in the lines you want. Here I wasn't sure about what I was doing XD, so I just tried to make it thicker where the lines meet and give a fading look on big curves.
If you have a brute hand and nib pens feel way too delicate for your raw style, multiliners can be a good option since they are much easier to control and you don't need to worry so much about controlling your strength when inking. I found this took a lot my fear of learning how to ink, so I began with that.
