Here are two, 30-minute pose ink drawings from the Thursday night open life drawing session at UK. These were drawn direct (without a pencil sketch) onto a 14 x 17" Borders and Riley Bleedproof Board (a cheap alternative to Bristol) with a Series Seven #2 and Koh-I-Noor Universal Ink. I have been drawing with the comics inking tools for several weeks now in Thursday night sessions and I believe I am seeing some improvement.
James Montgomery Flagg's (see links in right sidebar: Illustrators) style is an inspiration for my rendering - it is amazing how he could develop skin tones with such ease and economy of line hatching.
PS: I was pretty proud of this drawing until I put it up next to the Flagg! Boy, do I have a lot to learn!! And, boy, was he ever good!
