.+:｡My Favorite Alien｡:+.

I wanted to start trying to be able to do more realistic art, so I pulled some guidelines from this photo and used them to practice coloring and figuring out how to sort of do hair?

Hello! Your newest ink drawing are absolutely incredible and I'm trying to figure out how you did the fur texture (my favorite part!). Did you use a white pen, or is it just about leaving gaps (like it is for the separations between the limbs and body?) Also what pens did you buy those thin lines are so crisp without being too heavy and im intrigued

the texture is made with hatching in the (more-or-less) direction that the fur would grow. I'm not overly worried about keeping it realistic, as long as the texture and values are to my liking. here's a closeup of the chimera/kirin creature:

you can very clearly see the press and release of the pen, it's not always perfect! as for pens, I use 005 Microns.

for A5 pieces like the above it's 005 all the way through. when I work on a piece, I usually do it in one sitting, so the line of the pen becomes finer as it doesn't really have time to soak up the ink into the felt tip. I start with the dark areas like horns or muzzles or paws, and work into the main body which will usually appear more faded and thinner.
