An actual non-digital piece I did for a colleague of mine.

It felt good to be back in the basics. Using just pencil, pen, and marker from start to finish. Along my digital coloring journey I had forgotten how good a hand drawn color piece can feel when everything is said and done. It's a feeling you just don't get with digital work.

Things to come...

Here's a sneak peak of a piece I'm working on. When it's all said and done it'll be in full color but I'm leaving it un-inked. I've noticed that some Japanese illustrators don't bother with ink and go straight to color. When done correctly it can be almost unnoticeable. It's important that I make all my lines as clean and dark as possible so I make less work for myself in Photoshop. I usually work with 2h lead which gives me more control over my line quality and cleanliness but can be hassle scanning cuz the contrast of the final penciles can be very light at times.
