Inks #3: Jean Grey by Ed Benes

Finished this morning, this is my third traditionally inked piece of comic art: a great pin-up of Jean Grey by Ed Benes. It was rather fun having the new challenge of inking flowing hair. I know the more artworks I ink, the more challenges will arise. With every piece I ink I see more and more how much my line quality needs to improve, especially when it comes to women and their curves and hair, etc. With each piece too, I feel myself becoming more comfortable using a crow quill pen and ink. There's lots of progress to continue making, but it's being made bit by bit. I see it in the three pieces I have inked so far, and it is encouraging.

Rock on,
James
