Here's a project I worked on a few years ago that got shelved and probably would never see print. Everything you see rendered, was originally pencilled in as a solid black. With the exception of the main character, I rendered everything! Hatching, cross hatch, cross contouring, tapering, basketing, stippling, graded tones, just about every pen & ink technique I can put in to it, I did.

I was fascinated studying the page before this, I didn't see this till now.

What? With all that you did, you decided to leave the foreground section flat, instead of running the grade dark-dark-dark gray and home to black? (I'm not saying it would look better that way - just that, theoretically, it should be humanly possible. Now, we'll never know! - lol)

I could have rendered the foreground figures with the blacks as well. Probabily just a few hours of work to do that. However, the penciller wanted the figures to be inked the way it was drawn. Which was fine with me since I got the green light to render everything else, but the figures. Otherwise, I would have rendered everything.

I was kidding, Walden.
"Just a few hours of work to do that." Sheesh. I can't put in hours for a whole piece, let alone one part of it. (Maybe that's where I'm going wrong? Need to take more time in the execution? That is what it seems to be with the brush lines, at any rate.)
:iconcoloneljimbo3rd: got it right. You're insane - in a good way.

When I said a few hours, that's fast... at least to me. I do spend a lot of time when I'm working. A minimum of 10 hours all the way up to a couple of days depending on what's on the page.

At the same time, my turnaround time is fast. People think I'm fast at what I do because of my turnaround time. Truth is. I'm just very discipline where I'll sit behind the drawing table to get the work done. Even if it means skipping sleep.

Lucklly, I enjoy doing what I do. So the time spent on the work, doesn't feel like 'time spent'. Hours only feels like moments. And time flies by at a blink of an eye.

Inkphibian! (i.e. like an amphibian, except with ink.)

Wow, that is a tremendous amount of line work, Walden. Too bad it won't see print. That's A LOT of work!

Thanks Chris. Yeah, I was bummed about that too. That was one of the projects I poured everything into, so you can imagine my surprised when I got the call and was told the plug was pulled.
