I strive to be this good with pen one day.

Your style is so recognizable! I instantly knew this was your work.

I’ve tried this, but I’m really enjoying using pen right now, and I’m just not skilled enough yet to get precise tones with a pen. I’ve tried it (and used different shading method for different textures), but it was rough, lol. I might switch to pencil, or I might also just tough out ink shading until I get better; we’ll see.

Thanks! And yeah, they definitely don’t seem like they’re half way, lol, so that’s good to know. Another commenter suggested the Loomis method, so that should help me place things better.

I always drew the top hat guy as a kid, so I thought I’d try doing a modern rendering. I quite like him, too. :)

Will do, thanks! :)

I also have no idea why none of my women look feminine. A few of them have an awfully strong jaw, lol, but other than that, I have no clue.
