Baroness4314 viewsPencils and inks by Andie Tong. I was just mucking around experimenting with different techniques and assorted stuff, then finally settled on finishing it up like this. Pretty standard fare after all that effort, but then most of what I tried sucked.. like I said, I was experimenting...

Description and comments

Emma4292 viewsI seem to have nothing but Saturday\'s to color stuff lately, so I\'m picking lineart that\'s relatively simple (and quick) to do at present. This one is drawn by Randy Green and inked by Rick Ketcham. I wish Randy (or Rick) would post more lineart on the net...(hint hint!!..?) - it\'s fun and easy to do!

Description and comments

Vampirella4238 viewsPencils by J.S Campbell and inks by Sean Parsons. This was brilliant fun to do. The background just kinda 'evolved'... and yeah I ended up using my standard rusty metal texture file...again! - but so far I've not found anything on the net that works as good as this one does for me.
