Thanks! I don't normally use colour but I think it worked well here.

Well I think YOU'RE fantastic.

Very nicely done! You've captured the movement well.

Pencil first, then ink if I have time. I'm getting better at going straight to ink for the detail work, but for gross body positioning I still need the pencil.

Two seats down from me was someone doing pictures twice as good as this one directly with a fountain pen. I am in awe.

Apologies -- done.

Thanks! After three years drawing from photos, I was surprised how much harder this was. I'm better at hands and feet and general anatomy than I used to be, but working at speed is something I'm hoping to get a lot more practice of. I'll definitely be back next week!

Now I can't unsee this.

These are really nice! I like the cartoon style. I think the work would benefit from cleaner linework.

My workflow is to draw pencil outlines, ink over, then erase. I'm trying to lean less on the pencil for detail and go directly to ink, but that's for the future. Inking is always done very carefully and slowly -- if there's speed, it's at the outline stage.

I use a fine propelling pencil for outlining, and a Rotring Isograph (0.1 mm nib) for inking.

I was talking with a friend who mentioned "taking tea to India". It made me wonder what the equivalents are around the world. "Taking coals to Newcastle" is the UK's.
