I did this a little while ago, and got it scanned while I was scanning something else in. A holy crusader of sorts. 2 minutes, bic pen.
That's freaking awesome for a 2 minute sketch with a Bic.
Thanks. :) I love Bics for their ultimate control in its use, flow, and how fast they let me be. Unfortunately the ink doesn't stand the test of time. :(

But at least we have scanners to preserve the work. I prefer Micron pens myself, though they can sometimes be a little stiff, making it a little harder to get that smooth line. I love my .005 for doing hair and for pointillism pieces.

How about you, do you have any preferred pen size?

I'm not terribly knowledgeable about pen sizes. :) I've got a 4-pack of M,S,F,xF (Med, Small, Fine, Extra Fine) comic inking pens. So other than a Bic and those, my preferances are covered. My only complaint with my pen set is that when I work with bigger pictures, I don't have any Large or X-Large to get bigger lines.

If your xF look like the point of a needle, then it would be a .005, then F=.01, S=.03, and M=.05. I believe you can also get .07's, which are marker sized tips, I think. I find for larger pics a Sharpe works fine, especially the ones with two different sized tips. Plus you can also get the large Sharpe.

I've got a new one for you guys. Unfortunately, I'm only semi-satisfied with how it turned out, since I still have trouble with keeping my human characteristics consistent...
The one at the bottom right was my best one, in my opinion.

Holy wow!

I love these so much, thank you everyone.

I have decided I'm going to work in "Gaderael" "Firia" and "Zemalac" into Cruxxes backstory, if thats okay with you guys.

Thanks again =D

Well... I think I have a little too much that I could post here. Just head to my DA account if you really want to see my stuff:

I honestly don't think I draw too well, but I'm trying damn it. All of these are from my SA page.
Recently I have been drawing maps and stuff for my forum RP...

Hah! I am in someone elses D&D world! That strikes me as very funny for some reason.

Glad I could help. Once again, drawing Cruxx was really fun (except for the chain. That chain is a bastard to draw).

Yeah he is human, can't believe I missed that one. I guess over all he is happy and kind of cocky, that would be the bard in him. I've never met an unhappy bard.
I'm going to go find a D&D group now, just so I can play an unhappy bard.

Dude, looking good. I wish I had your skill with graphics programs. Im alright with a pencil and paper but my tablet gathers dust. Dont worry about getting it just right, all you need to do is practice. (heh, I should take my own advice, Ill upload something as soon as Im done with it)

I had a friend that played a Somber Poet (I dunno what it's actually called, but that's what I'm calling it). Rather than grant bonuses for the allies, it granted penelties for the enemies. :)
