Patrick,

Some pretty nice work, but I'd love to see what you could do with the brush and/or crowquill. I don't know any pro inkers (myself included) who use tech pens for anything other than ruled lines (mostly... not a hard and fast rule). I find that using a brush on organics, such as hair and clothing, and then using a quill on stuff like bricks, rocks, etc., gives me a variety of textures that work specifially for each subject I'm inking. I'd use the tech pens for the guns, and other mechanical/ruled objects. Changing up your tools will make you a more well-rounded artist, and give you much more variety in your work.

Based on your skills demonstrated in previous posts, I'd have no trouble believing you'd do a nice job with both the brush and quill, once you'd mastered the tools. Practice is everything! This is exactly the stuff I teach in my Drawing In Ink class, and I've found that once students realize the advantages to using many tools in a piece, they really take to it. I'm sure you would too!

Hey, also, thanks for the link!

Best,
Rich

Hey Patrick,

I've been enjoying poking around your site a bit. Nice stuff, and as you said, it's nice to see more monster guys out there. That Jungle Book room is amazing.

My God! I had no idea of you proficiency at comic pages. I'd buy a comic with your artwork. More please.
