bs inks

heres the inks. (click image for large)
yea it's confusing!!! it'll get clearer once i add color.

usually i lightable the pencils and ink on a separate piece of bristol.

with this one instead of inking everything separately and putting the inks together in photoshop. i put the pencils together and then went to kinkos and printed out the compiled bs image (18 x 22) on the kinkos large scale printer. (costs about 2 bucks)

then i took that image and light tabled it onto a piece of bristol of a corresponding size. then scan it in and wha la.






look for the color version in a few weeks.
