Feeling my sable brushes. Used a 7B super soft pencil on a well-toothed paper to pencil, then inked with a #2 Kholinsky for Gepetto and my Kuretake #40 for Lois. Love the feelin’ and groove I’m gettin’ with both the pencil and the brushes. I feel like I’m cheating on my nibs, though! I’m sure I’ll find ways to work them in some how.

Nate Riddle’s continuing misadventures on a hot Saturday night continue!
Well, I finally got off my duff and duotoned and uploaded a couple more pages of Circle City Tales #1. Will be adding a few more in the next few days. Enjoy!
