In honor of my 135th strip (rather, since I haven`t bought any new art toys in a while) I got a new Pentel Brush. This thing is AWESOME, but man it puts down a lot of ink fast. Sorry if the linework is thick and jumpy, I`m still learning, but I think the strip from first panel to last is proof enough that I should have it under control soon. I look forward to learning more about how to effectively use it. In the mean time, I have to find a way to compensate for the fact that the ink stays wet for quite awhile and leaves black puddles on my scanner. They wipe up just fine, but I`d rather not have to clean up after myself in the first place.
