Well this certainly reinforces the fact that I need to check out some of the iroshizuku inks by Pilot! Thanks for the post Apotheosis, I too hope you can find some more!

My simplified version of Whiplash (minus Mickey Rourke,the ugly teeth,trashy tats,the Russian accent and hair) !!
Sorry - the scan quality was bad !

i did some adjustments later to tone down the muscles but OMG I lost the new scans dangit !

What!!! - no FP in this one? just kidding. Its really cool - I'm really impressed.

You're right about the proportions of the muscles though - aren't the thighs just a bit longish?

Hi SMK,
You're absolutely right

I did a trim on the length and 'roundness' of the legs in the newer scan but i guess I didnt save the scan properly and it pulled a houdini on me.

Like your work too btw -especially so because it's in ink. It takes a lot of confidence to be able to do that without an initial sketch.

I don't think it was confidence, It started as a doodle and started to come together nicely to I decided to start over on a clean sheet and kept going. I find it interesting because I can see where I made mistakes - I find the result somewhat more alive than just a sketch.

BTW - what pens do you use for your work. I did mine with an MB 145 and I'm sure better suited pens exist - I've been drawn to the Pilot 823 Custom for a while and this might just be a good enough excuse to spring for one.

Whenever I doodle with ink at home, I'll usually use dip pens. If I'm doodling at work, then it'll be whatever pens I have in my hand - doesnt matter if its a pencil, ballpoint, Rollerball or FP.
If you're not not a neat freak - a custom 823 is a great buy. I've got a Medium nib Black Demo that I use daily and its a sweet thing.
