Inktober: potions and bottles

[eller]

This is a really fast sketch I did on the train today. :) I actually found a good paper for ink sketching in the form of a mini sketchbook from a set I had received two years ago (?) for Christmas. (Yeah, I said I didn't want to use a sketchbook, but... I don't have any other special ink paper.) The format is 10x14 cm, roughly postcard size. And wow, that fude nib is expressive! XD This is the first time I tried drawing with it and I'm still not sure if I love it or hate it. It's definitely not my usual style... LOL

This is so expressive! I love how you really went to town with the nib's varying line weights. =D

Cool how you were able to get that shiny texture of a glass surface through varying the widths of the hard lines, instead of using a lighter value. :)

Hi! I found you by random browsing and would like to be friends! *hides behind a door*

(I mean, obviously, I liked what I read and saw here, you seem like my kind of person and I'll be happy to see your wonderful userpic on my reading page.)

I like the high contrast values and the shadows especially.

Oh I like how strong this looks. It reminds me of woodblock printing. Very cool.
