Slingin’ Ink!!

I enjoy inking my work.  While inking I usually listen to podcasts or the radio.  I also “watch” (but really just mostly listen to) TV shows I’ve missed during the week.  I’m about 10 weeks ahead on the Sunday comic.  Here’s a close-up of me finishing the inking on an upcoming April Barney Google and Snuffy Smith Sunday page. It’s a fun gag that features lots of rock-hopping!  For inking, I use brushes, Higgins Black Magic india ink, Pigma Micron Pens and other pens, as well.
