I like the loose style, the second one is my favorite, diggin the look of them rubbery lips. Quite a different feel than the super tight line work you have been posting. All of it very well done. I too have been wanting to do some inkin' since Donnie's post, now your post has me plottin a trip back down to the art store. You mentioned Bristol Plate is that a smooth paper or does it have a tooth?. Also, I have always had trouble with pen and ink trying to get a crisp line that doesnt bleed and get fuzzy. I have been using a sketch pad and fine line sharpies. but always end up with art that looks heavy and overdone. Would you mind sharing what kind of pen and ink you use? Keep up the good work. If you have any t-shirt questions I will be more than happy to share any info that I have with you.
