What is 'vellum' and why is it the ultimate art hack?? Inktober day 5 #artist #manga #comics

i always love how you describe analog art traits with like, digital terms, if that makes sense 😭

i work in both mediums, but i tend to lean traditional bcuz there really *is* nothing like putting pencil and pen to textured paper. that being said, i am absolutely blown away by your digital rendering and coloring

[leoooo]

Yeah that's cool and all but that twisting, bending, stretching pair of binoculars just looks AMAZING.

that inking is GORGEOUS! What a treat to watch a master of their craft at work!

I love how much she understands the material she's drawing.

I just LOVE this inking series you guys are doing. Lydia is a beast at inking!

I like Blick Mixed Media paper because it's a light vellum and sometimes takes the edges and goes full fuzzy.

I feel like this would be a poster in a game like Bioshock or Fallout.

Those curved lines are so smooth they make me angry. 😂

[xplorer]

That must have been how they've drawn V for Vendetta

Yes because smooth Bristol takes a lot longer for the ink to absorb than vellum 😊
