ink, an unforgiving mistress

ink and i aren't getting along very well right now.

i've always been a little shy of the liquidy mediums but i'm trying to get it on with them these days... they however keep giving me the smack-down... i'm starting to feel a little hurt.

remember that "preview" of a comic i showed a while back? well, i basically destroyed it...

the only thing i could salvage was the last panel and i offer that to you below.

(i brought it into photoshop and played with the colours obviously but other than that, the linework was done with a small 5/0 brush and black india ink. the lettering was done with a pen - too fast and sloppy. i swear, comic artists must be the most patient people on earth!).

so yeah, this article about "ink and commitment" struck a chord with me today...
