I've recently ditched my dip pen and started to work more with my brush for linework. Partly because I was going through a ton of pen nibs, and partly because the pen was starting to feel really restricting. I was finding I kept getting the same lines over and over. There was no excitement or movement.
Now that I'm using my brush, I'm getting into a lot of accidents, and that's awesome! This piece for example has so much more life in it than if I had inked it with my pen. I've been using the brush on sketches, finished work, and even my comics. I can't wait to keep going with it!
hell yes, brush is the only way to go! just be careful not to have too much coffee before you work...
ReplyDeleteI like it.
