Welcome again to my daily presentation of the Inktober challenge, the theme for today is "Blade", but I didn't want to go directly drawing just a sword or something like that, every good weapon with a blade needs some sadistic user to use it correctly, cutting everything that comes in its way.
These five days have taught me that I really had my comfort zone in digital art, you don't know how much I need the tool "transform" and the facility to modify badly made strokes, but that's what this challenge is about, to get you out of your comfort zone or improve your technique through daily practice. Because ink cannot be erased, planning and good sketching of each illustration are indispensable, plus each stroke must be done with great precision and not distract you at all while you are doing it.
I wanted to establish a more dynamic form in this illustration, so I had to modify the sketch quite a bit to get closer to the idea that was forming in my head.
As I said above, it is necessary to concentrate on the lines you make with the fine point marker, any mistake is irreversible, you can only disguise it but not disappear.
Having the delineation ready, comes one of the easiest steps, fill in black the darkest areas, just be careful not to get out of the boundary lines.
