Brush + wash

Verric speaking here!



I tried inking with a brush for a quick effect with an ink wash overlay. I actually did it in two layers because I needed different paper for different sections. With the inking I needed smooth paper, but watercolour paper for the wash, which were then merged together on the computer. I wanted it to look like a traveler was passing through and had made this quick sketch to record memories of this place, so I tried to work as fast as possible. I added texture by using the watercolour paper and by splattering ink around. I had a lot of issues because this was the first time trying out brush inking, and I hope to get more opportunities for practice in the future.

You will see this image in Chapter 2, hopefully coming out soon!
