this method gives a "real pen pressure"results. but it takes so long to do a illustration with it. (about 2, 3 or 4 hours, depends of the illust final quality) I used to do this on PS before i met A.I XD

@schwarszendeust I know. For my new method see "Inking in Illustrator - The custom brush method "

[andrewsLG]

ok, this works but...a drawing that could be inked in less than an hour with a traditional pen or similar may take lots of hours doing this! :S sounds terrible for me

[lockianhound]

@andrewsLG That's why it's called "The old method" for my new method see "Inking in Illustrator - The custom brush method "

What is the new easier way? I thought this was the only way.

@Febeleh The video I promised you is now up. Title is Comic style Inking in Adobe Illustrator - The custom brush method

@Xytos And you of course are an artistic genius. That animated letter x you did in Maya really blew me away. LOL

VERY WELL DONE

check out my first speed inking video =]

the obsolete way has more control of the number of editing points and seems to be cleaner, both are good in their own style,what i like in the custom brush is it's more loose and spontaneous. Thanks for the info.

@Febeleh Good question, I wondering when someone would ask me that. That video is coming really soon I promise
