Film Study 23

Tools: G-Pen, Sharpie, Pro Marker

Movie: Mildred Pierce - Dir. Michael Curtiz

For this one I went back to using a pen nib. This time I used the Kureteka G-Pen. And this was by far the best ink nib so far, so I think I will stick to this one. I use a sharpie and Pro markers for the black fills and shading.

This is the inking with the nib, where I then fill in the shapes that need black fill with a sharpie.

This was the pencil stage

I did this with a 0.1 Pigment Liner (much easier than the ink nibs) and Promarker for shading.

This was done with a Kuretake Saji Pen Nib. This felt better than the School pen but not much line weight. Then I very lazily used a sharpie for the black fills, so the inking is quite terrible :P

Tear of a clown

So working in the same technique as my studies, this sketch was done in an A5 sketchbook with a Kuretake School Pen nib and Sharpie / markers.

Tuesdays one I did again with a Kuretake Pen Nib. This is from the movie Throne of Blood (Akira Kurosawa).

So this week as I was starting to run out of supplies I switched to inking with a pen.
I did this with the Kuretake School-Pen in a fresh sketchbook (with not great paper).

I did not enjoy this, but Mondays are always hard anyway :D

Film Study 14

So I take snapshots while I am doing these just in case I mess up badly. But it usually always looks better after inking / tone. But it gives me the mental freedom to not care about what happens. I can experiment and not worry. I don't use these drawings for anything but practice. Never thought I'd stick at it for more than a few days :P
