Bee's Ink and Brush Tutorialby =Bee-chan

Flash / Interactive

DONE done and FINISHED!!

I have finished the ink and brush inking tutorial and conquered buttons in Flash! *pose*

ADR and Spub, I gave you your credit, meh luverlies ^_^.

I'm just wondering if perhaps I should add some softened background music or not *has a sound editor*.

---

ANYWAYS, people have asked me in the past how I ink the way I do. I've kind of been meaning to make a tutorial for a while now... Spicekidd and Spubba gave me that last boot in the butt to get one finally made ^_^.
Decided to use the lineart for giftart I'm working on for ADR of her sexy boi, Ninjin.

Artwork, photography and Flash work are all done by me.

Ninjin and Cheese & Carrots belong to ADR.

I'll give a cookie to the people that find the 'easter egg' in the second supplies frame ^_^

This is gorgeous! Thanks so much for taking time to make this, you're right, there isn't enough advice for using traditional materials for inking. I'll be using this for a while to help me get into inking with a brush instead of with pens. It looks so fluid and natural

You are very welcome!

I'm just so glad that this tutorial has been able to help out so many people who have been curious to try brush inking, but didn't know where to start. And yeah, there really isn't! I've nosed around several times on Youtube, and yeah, people sorta go explain a tiny bit about brush inking, but they never really go into it. It gets treated as if it's a secret that they don't want others to know how to use. And it really isn't! The method of inking with a brush should be shared with anyone who really wants to learn.

Yes, indeed! I just started playing around with brush pens recently for the first time, and was amazed at how liberating it felt to work with a tool that sort of does it's own thing, if that makes sense. You have much less control over it than with a pen, but because of that, you can really give flow to the piece... I don't know, or maybe I'm just not that good yet! I'll keep at it either way

One, quite silly, question - will pony hair brush do its job, or should I throw it away and get sable hair one?

Thank you very much for the tutorial.

Holy shit! I finally get to figure out how to properly ink my drawings finally! Previously, I assumed that you have to use the pens with the metal tips to ink, but large places that need to fully inked always come out as layered areas instead of a solid place. Thank you so much for making things so much clear!

This is very imformitive! I learned a lot! *faves*

Great tut!
I tried it out this afternoon and I think your tutorial helped me improve my inking. I saw how close you hold your brush and by emulating that, I was able to keep my hand from shaking. So -I put it in my favorites for others to find.
