Good inking pens

Fri Aug 8, 2008, 8:28 AM
I've been getting by using whatever pens I can find in supermarkets, office supply stores, ect and it's just not cutting it for me. Most simply draw lines that are to thick, the end result is usually a pretty big loss of finer details going from sketch to inked drawing.

I know most artist are using PS or similar progs to ink. But honestly, I'm not a fan of inking on computer, the only mouse based techniques I know are slow going and tend to force me to concentrate on the screen for much longer than I tend to like. I can't afford a drawing tablet, so that leaves better pens as my only option.

What are the best drawing pens out there? I need something that doesn't bleed much and can draw very thin lines but haven't had much luck so far. If any of yall have experience with inking and could point me towards a good brand I'd greatly appreciate it. >.<

Update

Mon Jul 28, 2008, 11:12 AM
I just got back from a short vacation in Texas and figured what better time to put out an update. I've heard so many good ideas on what the gals should get into while they are on vacation and it's been interesting trying to see how to fit them in.

Todays update is small picture wise but one has a bit of a story to go with it. Actually it's more of a preview of what the girls are getting into down there. But I loved the images I made for em so I had to put something out.

More to come, stay tuned.

We got a theme but what now?

I'm just curious to see what TFs you guys are interested in seeing. I put a simple poll up there for watch and runners, but I'd prefer some good ole' typed answers. I'm just trying to take a general stock of who my audience is and what they like.
