Evening Inking Fun Times

This evening I’ve been catching up with fulfilling book orders from the week. As you know, all Artist Edition orders of the first PC Weenies book “Rebootus Maximus” will receive an inked sketch of the PCW character of your choice on bristol as well as a sketch in your book. The process to create the bristol sketch requires that I properly plan out what I’m going to draw. I create the roughs on a separate 8.5″ x 11″ blank paper to work out the dynamics of the pose.

When I’m satisfied with the roughs, I redraw the sketch on bristol board using a non-photo blue pencil. Inks are applied with Prismacolor Premier brush pens. I use both thin and “wedge” shaped brush pens. The thin pens are used for outlines while the wedge pen is used for fills. It generally takes me a few days after an order is received to fulfill it, so I can give each piece the attention it deserves. Anyhow, here’s a new piece I worked on tonight:

    Great job Krishna – as always. Btw, you should start to offer either sketches or even prints on your site. Do couple short runs etc (call it limited edition set) and see how it goes.

    Might be a good money source – especially for those who just don’t want the book OR already have it ;)

    I’m pretty sure I’d do it…

      … by “I’d do it” I do mean “I’d buy a print”

      Great idea, Jarmo! Thanks – I’ll put a survey up to see if other readers would be interested in limited run prints. It’s something I’d love to do, for sure!

Tell me what you think!
