It is? I'm a penciller myself; I'm not an inker. But I've always naturally pulled my feathering & cross hatching instead of pushing. I thought everyone did as well
Reproduction is much better these days than it used to be. But it's really something that you learn as you work and study what can be reproduced well. Trial and error, really. A good trick is to take a piece of (comic) art, scan it (600dpi @67%) and print it out (laser printer preferred), The printout should give you an idea of what will reproduce well, and what wont. You can also photocopy the art on a normal copy machine with a 67% reduction. 67% is what original comic art is reduced to for the final book.
The music have that Star Wars vibe! Love the inking!
All that feathering was dope!
Thanks so much for posting, and doing at a resolution that viewers can actually SEE! Great Work!
The tapering is smooth and really good!
Thanks! Just years of work and practice.

Amazing! Where can I find this pencil art page to be printed and practice my ink? Sorry, my english is so poor!
Above all... congratulations on your work, exquisite! One question: What brush do you use?
Nietzsche Pop - Raphael or Winsor Newton sable brush.
You're pulling your feathering instead of pushing . . . interesting . . .
Kevin Woolfork my thoughts exactly

Thanks for the video. Which brushes would you recommend for inking ?
Windsor and Newton Serie Seven #2 and #3
Looks great! I have a question, How works the reduction process to keep that fine detail clear in the final book? thank you...

+Jose Marzan Jr Thank you very much!
Hi! How do you erase the pencils without lightening the inks? thanks!
Deon de Lange - with a standard white erase. Kneaded erasers pick up the ink.
The top of the paper says 'the kubert school'
+Steven Painter That's where the penciller bought the paper. The Kubert School sells branded art supplies at their school and online.
someone please tell me what this music is. I love it.
Bernard Herrmann's unused score to "Torn Curtain".
thank you
Cool! How do you keep such a sharp tip on your brush?
Just try to keep the brush clean. Wash/clean after use, and keep it safe (use caps). That brush may have been newer as well.
Ok thanks for the tips
Philip Sasko The tips. For your brush tips. Huehue. Very interesting watching someone ink. Great job Jose.
+Philip Sarko He does seem to be rotating the brush a lot as he twisting the brush hairs
Is that a #3 round sable?
He writes in the comment section Raphael Kolinsky 8404 #4
It's probably a #4.
Thank you Jose! Your inks are incredible.
