Welcome to my second Skillshare Class! This class is a continuation of a series of classes where I go step by step through my process of creating illustrations. Feel free to follow along with the series or to only watch the classes that cover what you're interested in learning!
In this class I am teaching you all I know about inking traditionally. We go over choosing paper, tools, inks, inking the full illustration, scanning it in, and turning it into isolated line work we can color on Photoshop.
Tools needed:
-Paper (watercolor, bristol, etc.)
-Drawing tools (brushes, nibs, pens)
-Ink
-A sketch to turn into an inked piece
-Homasote or something similar to stretch paper onto
-Paper Towels
-Staple gun and staples
-Water
-Scanner
-Photoshop
Just like my previous class, this class is more for intermediate artists who are looking to add skills to their repertoire. Although, that doesn't mean beginners couldn't learn from this class!
