Lore Ink Studies and Summer Schedule

 Summer is just about here, and so the blog might be a little slower as I focus on Family Fun. There will be a lot of Lore Studies, but hopefully a major Lore piece in August/September.

Then in September we should return for a strong end of the year run.

Enjoy the Summer, Keep Shining!

Lore Study (On the Rock)

Another Study of Inks.

Lore Ink Studies (Up the Mountain)

 So, as I think about the next project for Lore, I need to practice inking.  I'm looking a some of my favorite inkers and trying different techniques and see what I can learn. 

Gotta Keep Climbing that Mountain!

See ya, and keep shining

Lore Ink Project Finale

 Lore of the Silver Hand being assaulted by Bandits.

Project Done.

That was fun. Learned a lot of things.  Used Photo Reference, ink washes, and every technique I could at it.

Whew.. I'm tired.

Onwards and Upward

Lore Ink Project Week 5

 Clean Inks!

Top: Clean Inks in full, with Characters and Backgrounds. 

Middle: I usually ink the characters first. Starting with the main character Lore, then doing the bandits.

Bottom: Tight pencils done using the Full Ruff Pencils from last week.

I like keeping a clean inks so I can use it later for either watercolor or digital paint.  Next up Full Inks. So, I will see ya next week
