realizing you can work on each line instead of just doing one pass with the pen is such a mindblowing discovery for me

I’m here in the corner thinking if I should make comics digitally or traditionally.

Do both and see what you like

The correct answer is both because art is art and using different mediums can be fun!

You can do both, like lineart on traditional and color digitally

I do a mix of both and still can't decide. Maybe actually mixing both mediums and making a comic with both ( ;-;)

@@randomalex5119 Some veteran pros still ink traditionally, because it gives more energy and you're not gonna spend time correcting without reason. It just gives more life to your drawing. The neatest trick is to print your digital penciling in a non-photo color alongside the layout on your paper, and then scan it back to color digitally. You do need access to a good laser-printer, and large-format scanner if you're drawing on 11x17" bristol boards. Otherwise you can use a non-photo blue lead to pencil out and it won't show when scanning in black and white.
I am left-handed too. I would start on the right side of the paper and work my way to the left side of the paper then the doodles should never be covered. Love your work!

ME TOOOO
great video! loved the explanations of your textures and how and why you used the various pen products.
Thanks so much. I love this video. It’s nice to know that im not the only one that doodles/practices with line work. I have pages of doodles with just lines. I find it very meditative as well.
Thank you for sharing your artistic journey and inspiring others with your talent. Your video has undoubtedly encouraged countless artists and art enthusiasts to explore their own creative endeavors with renewed enthusiasm.
long time illustrator and love seeing these all in one place for inspo. thank you!
You have a steady hand and a nice collection of pens. Thanks for the video.
As an aspiring comic maker, watching your videos is so helpful and awesome!!!😄
Both the tool introduction and the technical introduction are helpful. thank you.
Mr Marzullo your skills are Awesome & I thank you for sharing these Fantastic techniques because Indeed making comic book style art, cross hatching whatever in this similar medium is bloody exhilarating for me since childhood and current. 👍🏼
That gave me some great ideas to help with what I've been struggling with! Thanks.
Very interesting possibilities! Need to practice now!
This gives very interesting touch! Thank you for sharing.
That brush pen is trippy never seen sum like that love it
Wow how could 30 seconds of your information explain more than me going to school and “learning shading” for three months. I did go to public school but my teacher never really explained the technique. For example I hate cross hatching, but as it turns out I was doing it wrong. You taught me so much thanks
thank you. your tutorials really help and new artist who wants to get better. i watch your videos daily when im struggling. I have no ambition of being famous artist i just love to draw and your tutorials are top notch man so thank you for all knowledge and happiness you gave me!
I was racking my head over your Darth Maul hood texture , case closed! you saved me months lol thanks a ton!
This video is very helpful. I understand the utilization of cross hatching much better
Nice tips! I gotta practice inking more! 🖋
This remember me to alberto breccia drawing style, i love so much his illustrations, especially the stories of H.P LoveCraft
Yooooo that tip about rendering a soft edge by (basically) making a “zipper”…. Priceless. I have never seen anyone explain inking that inverted (white line) taper pointing back at the shadow shape. My mind is blown.
Wow excelente contenido, muchas gracias profe
I still don't understand how you only have 170K subscribers, you channel is amazing
Awesome. Just got a bunch of microns and prismacolors for my b-day and this will actually make me use them for once.
very good tips, thank you!
Cool drawing technique! I want to try drawing like this too.
THIS was so helpful! Just when I needed it!
It's nice to see a tutorial from a lefty like myself, thank you
Love your videos!!😄😄
Very good lessons! Thank you!
Very amusing to watch
Incredible man, I've been looking for a video like this for a long time.
Wow this is impressive technique. amazing my friend..Thanks for your tutorial I learned.
Thx for the tips much needed
Cool, I didn’t know about the white out, thank you!
This is the most impressive-looking hatching I've found on youtube yet. Amazing.
4 minutes into the and I already like it. It's like the holy grail of cross hatching
Great work
I loved watching this video! Really helpfull
Hell yeah, another left handed artist
I feel like this is the most useful video bIbha e seen on this channel, personally
I have some of those. Good video
this is fantastic. thanks so much. when i started drawing in pen and ink, we used rapidographs. i liked the real thin line pens and they’d always dry out. :) the pens we have now are so much easier. thanks for the white out pen. i had no idea there were such pens. n.b. i still have all my nibs. i loved those. i took scientific illustration in college and now just doodle. but i learned so much from this vid :) ✒️🖊️〰️🟰🀄️
This is so cool! I’m curious whether you often use dip pens or fountain pens in your work for lineart.
You're brilliant.. thanks 4 doing videos😊
great tut, thanks man !
Estuve buscando este video hace varios meses hoy me apareció de nuevo 🤗 ahora podré terminar mi dibujo.. Gracias
Love this video! Only now I'm very conscious of throwaway plastic pens.
Amazing! That's so helpfull. thanks to you.
Great work!
Thanks, Rob. Some of the techniques are similar to David Finch's cross hatching or rendering techniques.
Excellent video!
Thanck you!!! I realy need this video!!!!
Thank you so much I need to do a lot of ink crosshatching for a shoe boot drawing for class

Great video. 💯
it's really helpfullll thank youuuu
really cool stuff!!! ive been trying to apply more hatching in my artwork but im finding that i either dont have enough interesting variations in my piece, or i do too much in the wrong places. basically my inkwork fluctuates between messy/confused and bland/sterile. do you have any advice or recommendations on how you would apply the different styles youve demonstrated in this video? like which you would recommend for portraits and character illustrations and which are better for landscapes or objects? and which you would recommend to represent different values in an illustration versus which you would use to demonstrate depth and texture? sorry if none of this makes sense lol
Absolutely amazing love you work please do more pen tutorials
Thx for the tool list. I got some shopping to do
Thank YOU very much ❤
I am very interested in your videos, keep on working, and I will follow and become your true fan
this. is. amazing....
Great video, Thx!!!
好棒的線條練習
Beautiful 😍
That was amazing
Thanks for Sharing 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for the video. I'm just getting into ink and cross hatching is hard. I'm going to practice these exercises for sure.
Awesome
really liked the video! I just bough a couple of 0.1 Uni Pin fineliners, do they really run out faster than bigger sizes i wonder
Might want to try the Kurotake No. 50 Brush pen. Refills with a Platinum Fountain pen converter (I use the Platinum Carbon Ink). Very nice if you are used to a regular brush and ink since it's Sable hair, and you can also get replacement heads if you wear down the brush. It can do a fine hair to broad strokes, but it does take good control. There are 2 less expensive versions of the same brush pen, one with a simpler body (the No. 30 I think?) And another with a Nylon brush head that's not refillable IIRC.

Kuretake #13 brush pen has synthetic bristles, is a fountain pen, and can make lines of decently-varying width. You can get spare cartridges for it.
Thank you.
I struggle at cross hatching, it looks so cool and awesome. But it is something, that doesn't come natural to me. So I should do exercises to learn it. Maybe one day :D But your Video showed cool exercises and patterns. So thanks for uploading and sharing your expertise :)
This is like watching a magic trick being revealed.

I liked all your examples I saw a city reflection with your tombo strokes , I saw landscape ,its so werid how line and ink inspires my brian into seeing scifi landscapes or such....do u notice things like that as you doodle...
Great video! What paper do you use?
