Comic Book Inking Tips
Questions sequential art?
Hello, I'm very big on making cartoons and comics, but when I start making one, I always end propagation inspired in a mess. I always start with a pencil outline, then go back with a fine tip markers and ink pens. Also finished my ink stains as well. What I can do to prevent staining of my drawings? I am using the light pen type of artist I can not find (4h-6h) and ink, if that helps. Moreover, what is good quality, reasonable price sketchbook that I could find a place like Hobby Lobby, which supports the ink without bleeding through? Currently, I use cardboard, it's pretty good. But the only thing that worries me is that the brand I buy is that it only comes with 20 pages of paper, and I need more than that. I am going through the paper as if it were water, so obviously, of 20 pages is not enough for me. What should I do? One last thing, how I can ensure my comic panel are straight? Thanks in advance!
Go to any art store and see plumes of his art. You can get low prices in different widths ($ 2.15 to $ 2.99 each). Draw a line on paper, dip their fingers and trying to smear the line. You need one that is impervious to water before you can make bookmarks. Fountain pens not waterproof. Use a pencil, lightly trace, use an eraser to erase pencil lines kneed indelible after drying 12 hours (I discovered if you delete it immediately removes some of the ink, even the most waterproof). The feathers I use all cost less than $ 2.50 and are disposable "technical" feathers. There is a pen. There are sales several times a year in sketchbooks – visit Dick Blick Art or the artist and the screen both have online sites. The smoothness of paper, inks and pens better. Use a ruler to the panels. Predraw the first and the ink they are ready for you. I'm very, very advisable to check the art section the library of a book called "Drawing Words and Editorial, was one of the best books on how comic books, I've found. There is a site for the book also, but especially created as a teaching tool for courses in the evening, but check that too. The book itself is $ 36. Most cartoon books now guide the design of digital computers — It's about doing your part to do so. I do not wash, so you need a document of Art takes a pen and ink approach and had no problem with it. In fact, all the artwork Ferret Tarot (It's online, Google images) was actually in the paper Standard equipment … LOL! I took a decidedly low-tech approach to the platform, the document is not art "real" was used. Although it has to scan everything on your computer to let it fall on the disk if the printer can print photos. It is now in its third printing, self-cover publication. The art with these drivers did fine point, Viper, and Micron pens too (I do not recommend the art of Micron, the ink is not completely black, which leaves more gray and feathers do not have anywhere near the quantities to other pens is cheaper to make).
