I appreciate that you haven't speeded up the work process. Watching the lines being drawn in real time makes it way more informative to me as a reference material because I tend to impatiently rush my inking.
Thank you for watching! Same here, I enjoy seeing others draw in real-time, and especially with dip pens and brushwork, it gives a better idea of the process 🖋😅🙂
please do a berserk study and teach us what makes berserk art so good
Great suggestion! "how to Master study" is on my list for upcoming videos and Kentaro Miura will absolutely be featured 😀I love Berserk art!

Straight to the point and very nice demonstration. Thanks, Chloe!
PS: and congrats for being featured on Inktober 👏
Thanks for watching and for the kind words 😀
Beautiful lesson! Loved your artwork and the patience for inking!
All this knowledge is well worth a full price lesson but you’re giving it away for free thank you so much!
Glad that you enjoyed it! Keep an eye on announcements, I'm planning to launch a dip pen course on Skillshare soon :)
I'm so glad I found your channel! I like your style and how you explain what you are doing in your process video. I learned a lot from this video and am encouraged to continue practicing. I will definitely be back for more! :-)
Awesome! Thank you!
perfect artist, perfect teacher
That's very kind to say! Thanks for watching and have a great day.
You are lovely, the cat is lovely and the artwork is also lovely....
I always used to use felt tip pens and while I like the effect, seeing your drawings made me buy a nib and ink and give it a go. And wow. I love the weight variation you can achieve with nibs that you can’t really get as easily with a 0.05 or even 0.03. Maybe my handedness is better suited to nibs who knows. Can’t way for payday to buy more nibs! Haha
Wonderful! And the other thing that's great about using dip pens is that the density of the ink makes clean artwork for reproduction. If you want to scan and print your artwork, there is hardly any digital retouching needed and it scales up/down really well.
Absolutely fantastic tutorial.
It couldn't be better than this.
With ❤ from the Čech Republic 🇨🇿.
Glad you liked it!
Incredible tutorial! Thank you for sharing! Beautiful bird piece!
Happy to hear that you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
@@longstrideillustration You’re welcome!
very instructive and useful narration. unique drawing style.
Thanks for watching! I appreciate the kind words, cheers!
Nice
Massive thanks for sharing this lesson really appreciated 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing, love it. Great tutorial.
Glad you liked it!
Such good tips. I am amazed on how you do such a good job with light and dark on your first layer. I don't know my technique, but it works for me. But your lines are masterful! This was a great video, and the result was beautiful.
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching! 🙂
I love your videos! You explain in a very clear way. Keep it up!
Glad to hear it! Thanks much 🙂
Wow that was great. Thank you.
Amazing tutorial. Thanks for sharing it!
Beautiful outcome👍👌
Thank you so much 😊
I like that you told us that you didn't draw the outline because you didn't want to add hard edges too soon. That is very helpful to me!
Glad it was helpful! 😀
you should do a witch hat atelier in-depth explanation video, the hatching on that manga is so clean it makes the art look so good.
Oh, great suggestion. On my list!
Fabulous! Thank you so much for this tutorial
Awesome more of this please…..
Thank you! I plan on doing pen & ink tutorials regularly for sure 🙂
This was so pleasing and soothing to watch. And so helpful due to the super-detailed explanation in the voiceover as well as the real-time and clear footage of the demonstration. Wow. Thank you very much.

Thank you! I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
@@longstrideillustration 🤗
Love your channel and ink style. I mostly draw skulls and helmeted gas masks and I ALWAYS start with the eyes as well. I've learned a lot from watching your videos. I try to watch one a day when I park up for the night. I'll have a day off day after tomorrow, probably will make it to Georgia, and want to try some of the techniques I've learned from your videos.
That's awesome! glad to hear that you can relate to the "eye thing" and that you're excited to practice with techniques. Thanks for watching! 🙂
Thank you for the video! Awesome tutorial!
Glad you enjoyed it Gabriel! 😀
Também faço desenhos bico de pena e este é o melhor vídeo explicativo sobre esta técnica que já assisti no CZcams. Parabéns a artista.
Thank you, I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
I just found you & you are great, yes I subbed & for good reasons, the first of which is you use dip pens, #2 you have a journey to tell even though you already have worked on your drawing skills, & 3rd is you're honest. Thank you.
That’s so kind to say, I really appreciated it. Glad you enjoyed the video and I wish you the best with your inking projects :)
@@longstrideillustration Good fortune on your ventures
That looks gorgeous! Great work!
Thanks very much!
Wow. This is so inspiring. It's amazing how much information you can convey with just line work.
I appreciate the kind words! Thanks so much for watching 😊
Really amazing! You do beautiful work!
Thank you so much 😀
wow this is fantastic, not just the art but also also the video and the way you explained.
That's great, thank you for watching and for the kind words. Happy inking!
Fantastic ! Thank you for this tutorial, it's so helpful 🥰
Glad it was helpful!
Very clear demonstration and beautiful result.
Thanks very much! I'm currently working on the next tutorial - looks like the Community Poll voted on drawing a Pheonix 😀
A superb pen and ink drawing, an perfectly explained. Well done!
Thank you! Glad that you enjoyed it 😀
I`m so impatient that I draw birds only in pencil sketches. Hope one day I will be able to draw complete drawing. You are very inspiring!
Some of my projects take a very long time to complete, and I would not be described as a patient person. What helps me is that I view the inking stage as a new drawing, then each part of that process is done in sections so that it feels like a bunch of little projects with tiny wins along the way.
@@longstrideillustration how do you keep consistency and not letting drawing falling apart?
@@masterklep The same way that I approach exercise, it's best to have objectives and a plan. Even activities that we really enjoy doing can have tedious aspects, so having clear goals that move me towards a desired outcome really helps with motivation and staying on track.
Какая красота!
So beatiful!
Much appreciated! Thank you.
Awesome!
Glad you think so!
@@longstrideillustration of course, very talented!
Amazing. Thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks for watching!
Really inspiring,👍👍
Glad you think so! 😀

I am fascinated with your ruled board under your work - it can't be a self healing cutting board??? Oh please share where we can find the ruled board you work on. It looks as though it makes measuring out (eyeballing) easier!
It is wonderful indeed, glad you noticed it. It's a cricut cutting mat, and I do use it for cutting and eyeballing though it's primarily padding between my drawing surface and my wood drafting table. It's nicer on the nibs this way. You'll find the link for the mat on my FAQ page under the Studio Equipment section: longstrideillustration.com/faq/
Beautiful work! Inspired to give it a go too. What is the nib you are using called? Thanks.
Thanks for the question, in the description, under Resources you'll find the Supplies used in the video: Tachikawa soft Maru nib, Speedball Hunt 101 nib, Artist Loft H Graphite Pencil, Staedtler Mars technico led holder with 2mm H led, Speedball super black Indian ink, Faber Castell kneaded eraser, Strathmore 300 series Bristol smooth paper
@@longstrideillustration Thanks for taking the trouble to respond, just noticed it was in the description after all! Oops.
Do you have a book with your beautiful art work?
Thank you! Not yet, though there are a few glicée prints available on my website. I plan to print a book in 2024
how long does this whole process take? for reference when i try myself.
Drawing it from pencil to ink, depending on your pace, anywhere from 3-7 hours. It took me about 4.5 with the filming in between. It takes a bit longer with a dip pen. Happy inking :)
Which size of nib it is ??
Hi, it's a Tachikawa soft Maru and a Speedball Hunt 101. All of the tools, supplies and materials used in the video are listed in the description, and more listed on my website: longstrideillustration.com/faq/
Great video, but I find it odd that you say you draw more naturally from right to left because you're right-handed. I'm right-handed, too, and I find pulling to the right much more natural than pushing to the left. Am I missing something specific to pen and ink techniques?
Thanks for asking, I over-simplified it a bit as I actually move more diagonally from the right-hand corner pulling the line towards the center (toward the body), top-to-bottom. I rotate the paper to maintain a 45 degree angle (it would make viewers dizzy with all the spinning). I draw using the whole arm, aiming to keep the elbow and wrist locked. The rotation comes from the shoulder, or more like the shoulder is the hinge point. If I were to draw starting from the left side of the paper toward the right edge of the paper, then my arm would cross the body plus cover-up the image as I draw, the hinge movement to keep the arm steady would then need to come from the waste - thus be awkward. Hope that clarifies, otherwise I might need to make a video :)
@@longstrideillustration Interesting. I think I understand: you're more comfortable with something like a closing motion while I'm more comfortable with something nearer to a tennis backhand.
A video might be a good idea, though, because I suspect I'm not the only one with questions about this.
Nice
