Silas Zee: Kaori Ink Doodle

Kaori Ink
Doodle

2016.07.30

Here's a quick Kaori doodle I started last night to help blow off some steam. Since I liked the sketch so much I threw on some quick inks with a Sharpie so I wouldn't be tempted to do really precise inks. It's really rough but it still keeps most of what I liked about the pencils (I did the inks so fast I didn't worry about capturing the sketch stage XD). I haven't really done real pen-and-paper inks for quite some time and this ended up being a dry run for another Kaori and Kousei pic I'm working on that I want to traditionally ink. :3

I usually do some digital cleanup on the inks after I scan them in for coloring but I didn't here. I think the messy quality adds to the flavor here. I made sure the colors were simple, I shaded it with a brush instead of blocking it in to match the fast-and-loose inks as best I could. I wanted to make sure the coloring was as no-frills as I could get since the lines are the star of this one. ^_^
