How to Ink Various Textures and Effects with Traditional Tools

How to Ink Various Textures and Effects with Traditional Art Tools

I just created a new class on Traditional Inking Techniques. You can get it on my Gumroad or watch it on Skillshare with the links below.

In this class I will show you my methods for drawing and inking various textures with traditional tools.  You will learn about line weight, textures, cross hatching, and making corrections as you work.

This class currently include 3 project files and the run time is at just over an hour.  The first project is drawing and inking a monstrous face.  Here we will go over the benefits or random textures and effects.  Sometimes you just have to let the pen go and see what happens!

Cross hatching - Drapery

For the next project you will draw and ink a fantasy art sword.  This will allow us to work on something with more structure and talk about clean lines.  This is also a good opportunity to render some chrome like effects.

For the third project we will draw and ink some drapery.  This is something we need to practice a lot and it will relate to clothing and a variety of other materials.  This one is a time lapse with narrated since many of the concepts will be redundant.

You get all the art files to study and work along with.  I will be adding more examples very soon but let me know if there is something you would like to see covered in future lessons.

Tools that we will be using in this class – 

  • Strathmore 200 Series Bristol Board Smooth
  • Micron Pens – 01, 05
  • Tombow Dual Brush Pen – N15
  • Zebra Pen WFSS4 150
  • Presto Jumbo Correction Pen ( White Out )
  • Pentel Brush Pen Fine Point
  • Staedtler 2mm Lead Holder – 2H lead

Thank you for your continued support and good luck with your studies!
