Hi. I just want to say that your videos are the first useful ones I’ve seen on UA-cam about producing comic book art. I hope you continue making them for a long time 😀
Thank you, Ian! I really appreciate that! Sometimes just uploading these videos, I really don't know how viewers are receiving it. When I read comments like yours, it gives me the urge to do more. Thank you again!
OMGGG so you're telling me that i can ink a curve in separate strokes??? no wonder why my inking sucks, i always tried to reach the whole curve in one stroke and obviously failing. this video is pure gold, thank you!!
Thank you so much for watching my video. Absolutely. I ink curves with different strokes and connect them all the time. Best way to get smooth flowing lines. If you like these types of videos and want to see more, please subscribe to my channel, if you haven't done so already. More tutorials soon. Thank you!
Hi Andrea Espona. Thank you so much for saying that! I appreciate it. If you enjoy these videos and like to see more, please subscribe to my channel. More tutorials coming soon! Thanks again!
Thank you, blkngoldsolsier! I have other videos where I’m drawing or inking on real time. Where I also talk about why and how. In fact, one of my more recent video is about three and a half hours long. I do break it up on chapters, sketching, penciling, inking, and coloring. Check it out if you haven’t already. That’s a very informative video. If you enjoy these videos and like to see more, please subscribe to my channel for more tutorials. Thank you again!

Hi JD. Thank you for watching my video. That’s a great question and I think I’ll make a video about just that… how to get king sweeps and have them look crisp and not wobbly. Thank you for the suggestion. Make sure you’re subscribe to my channel and have the notification one. So when I upload new videos, you won’t miss that one. Thank you again!
Thank you, Tony! When I use the brush, I'm very light handed. Almost to the point where I'm just gliding only the tip of the brush to the surface of the paper. When I need a thicker line, that's when I press down lower.
This is good but it would be so much better in normal speed. I had to slow down the video to really get to observe your strokes but then the audio gets all messed up
aciduss , thank you! Check out some of my other videos where it’s filmed in normal speed. There’s some great videos in my channel. Thank you for watching and don’t forget to subscribe!
Hi Alex! When I ink, I don't add water to it. It does help to make the ink more fluid, but I don't add water because I want the inks to be as dark as it can be. The only time I add water to ink is when I'm doing ink washes. Adding water will give the inks a different shade of grey depending on how much water you use. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Thanks for watching and subscribing, Al! I don't load the ink into the water brush, I just dip it as I like to control how much ink is on the tip and not worry about squeezing it out, or squeeze too much of it out if it's loaded. I just use it like a regular brush.
Hi... First of all thank you for sharing your knowledge with everybody here. I've learnt a lot of things. Could you please tell us if the lineart of this board is available somewhere to test your techniques on the same panel? Thank you.
Hi Alexus! I'm glad to know you're learning from these videos I create. Yes, this lineart in high resolution is available on my Patreon page with links on how I worked on this page step-by-step as well as how to print this out to ink. Here's the link. www.patreon.com/posts/18458559
Alexus! Thank you for supporting me on Patreon. Also thanks for watching and subscribing! Stay tuned for more good videos about inking and everything else comic industry related coming soon!

Hi Ronald Acosta! That's a Pentel Aquash Water color brush pen. I've added links under the video if you wanted to get one for yourself. It's a great brush pen and keeps on ticking with low maintenance. Thank you for watching and subscribing!
Hi Ronald! You really don’t need to clean the brushes. Maybe rinse them off once in a while. But if you really wanted to clean them, I’ve added a few links under the video that you can check out and purchase from. Also check out my website www.waldenwongart.com and you’ll see a big “Walden on Amazon” button. Click that and you’ll see all the tools I use and can purchase from. Hope that helps!
Hi ArtisticAnimeDreamer ChohuiDance4Ever. It's just a lot of practice. Here's a tip... When you're drawing a line, move you hand QUICK to where you want your pen to stop and you'll be surprised how smooth the line will be. Thank you for watching and subscribing!
So smooth. You could have been a world class surgeon. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Jonathan! Surgeon of comics! lol.
Really nice, precise and flowing technique. Very inspiring.
Cheers Waldon,

Gi Joe, thank you for watching and for the kind words. I appreciate that very much!
Geeeezus, that's some brush control, such smooth linework, I tip my hat, sir.
Hi Tech-Priest Gibbonius. Thank you for the kind words. Much appreciate. More good videos coming soon! Thank you for watching and subscribing
Nothing like seeing such a confident and steady hand. My favorite Inkers are guys like Karl Story and Mark Farmer and I put you right in that company.
Thank you, Dana. That's some great company there. You're too kind, my friend!

Slowing Speed to .25 reflects closest to Real Time. technique displays much better in my opinion. Just Mute.

How do do you keep a steady hand for those long sweeps?

How your brush doesn't fray out when you swipe to produce the lines (keeping thin lines) idk! It's so hard :( lovely video Wong
Thank you, Tony! When I use the brush, I'm very light handed. Almost to the point where I'm just gliding only the tip of the brush to the surface of the paper. When I need a thicker line, that's when I press down lower.
Always grateful, Walden! Thanks again

Amazing work and incredible control! Did you have to add water to the ink to let the ink flow through the brush pen more easily?
Hi Alex! When I ink, I don't add water to it. It does help to make the ink more fluid, but I don't add water because I want the inks to be as dark as it can be. The only time I add water to ink is when I'm doing ink washes. Adding water will give the inks a different shade of grey depending on how much water you use. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Hey Walden, Great video. Do you have ink loaded in the water brush as well as dipping?
Thanks for watching and subscribing, Al! I don't load the ink into the water brush, I just dip it as I like to control how much ink is on the tip and not worry about squeezing it out, or squeeze too much of it out if it's loaded. I just use it like a regular brush.
Thank you, inspiring videos!
Thank you, Al! I appreciate that!
You pull a good line man. Thank you for sharing. I'm practicing while I watch, I do pull a better convex line.
Thank you Doctor Fantastic! I'm glad the video can help!
LOL! Love the huma'...😂😂😂

Walden Wong Art really appreciate the response! Since your using the pen in this manner, do you have to clean/rinse it after use? Thanks again
