Tender Moment

I have been inking pages for the last two months. I finished inking the second issue and inked the first half of the third issue. Yesterday, I ran out of pages to ink...so it is back to penciling. I feel "rusty" and it took me almost an hour to warm up before I could even start on a page. I guess that is the trouble with doing everything by myself. If I spend some real time doing the lettering, by the time I feel good about it I forget how to ink...if I spend a few weeks inking...I forget how to pencil. It is a never ending struggle.

I hear you, Alex.

I find it works best for me to pencil a couple of pages then ink them, as oppossed to penciling a whole issue and then going back to ink it.
