I saw this in a picture from the Codex Telleriano-Remensis:

Well done Drafty, it looks awesome. :thumbup:

Thanks Pterodactylus (awesome name btw - I sense from your work and that name you are into drawing creatures) - I was just doing the above pencil draft and surfing fpn when I saw this thread and took a snap. I think I'll do a big proper eagle soon.

 

Hey I see you alternate between digital and material. Your reptilian eye coming through the paper (on previous page) is stunning. Your use of colour is just inspiring.

 

As is Pira's.

 

I need a tip on paper types actually. I use Canson dry media paper cos I mostly do pencil stuff but seeing some of the art here...I want to use colour.

 

Can anyone advise on pens, nibs, paper etc. My paper just sucks with fp ink.

This is based on a tattoo I found on the web. At least it looked like a tattoo.

 

I would reference it but I can't find it now!

 

I drew it for my other half for Valentine's

Thanks Drafty, I´m looking forward to see your next drawing.

For ink drawings I use most of the time Mondi IQ Selection Smooth 160g/m2

It´s not expensive, very smooth and work really well with ink (even doing a wash)

He did not materialized yet, but who knows.....

 

 

But some of his colleagues and relatives materialized quite some time ago

I posted this elsewhere but I thought Ptero's dragons might want another friend.

Polanova dig them out ;)

 

Nice Snowbear, did you took him from a coat of arms?

In a way - he flew off the flag. He's actually Noodler's Ratler Red but I used an EF nib so he looks pink.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
