Recently finished a new sample set inspired by Brian Wood's smashingly brilliant Vertigo book, Northlanders. From events that happened in issue 3, The Drovers Lads.

A lil practice also in control since I used thinner, smoother lines here than I usually employ. This was a very fun exercise, the more so because I love the whole Vikings era! Really fun sample set, this one. Let me know what you guys think when you can.

Pencils+Inks done in 11"x17" boards. Thanks for looking!:)

Looks cool. You usually use bolder lines?

How do you ink your pages?

I've been using pens/markers but have been thinking of moving into traditional inking.. any suggestions?

yeah, if you check my earlier works, they pretty much have a broader, more varying brushwork on them. with this, it's more controlled, single weight outline.

i ink depending on what's needed per project. my number 1 tool is a brush, with technical pens (.1,.3,.5) as 2nd tools.

i think it'll be beneficial for you to get yourself acquainted with brush inking. it's a bit challenging, but once you get used to it, you'll find it hard to drop. the resulting work's closer to pro quality with brushes. just give it a shot and see if you feel the process.
