Again though, I think you have a solid foundation based on what I’ve seen of your work. Ink is permanent, but I don’t think there’s such thing as a “wrong mark.” It’s up to you when it comes to your art. Don’t be afraid to dive in and experiment endlessly!

As far as shading, I would look at an artist you admire (like Junji Ito) and study how they approach shading in their work. Keep in mind that artists like Junji Ito are masters of their craft and have been drawing for many years. So don’t be hard on yourself for not getting it the first time.

I’d suggest that if you’re intimidated by the permanency of ink, you could always re-draw an older drawing. Either by tracing it with a light board, or just redrawing it with pencil, then inking over it.) That way you can focus purely on your inking.

I checked out some of your art and it’s honestly rad! Really cool and creative concepts. I love all the body horror. You’ve got some great shape composition going on. I do notice that your drawings are mostly pencil with little bits of marker here and there. What’s stopping you from using ink?
