Anyway, these drawings typify what's in my sketchbook right now and there are a few things I'm really happy with, a few I'm frustrated with, and some that I just don't get at all.
I'm happy with how the line quality is working out (a big part of the reason I like the brushed look is in the thick-to-thin lines), but I'm messing up in the shadows and mid tones. I don't think they describe the shape, light and textures well enough, but I'm not sure what to do differently. I'm baffled that some drawings seem to work better with less going on, while others work well because of all the line work involved.
If anyone has time to share a few tips with me, I'm all ears. I've been reading and watching all sorts of tutorials on inking, and I've been reading some of my favorite comics rendered in ink with a brush.
Thanks for your time and help.
