Sketch video and inking by Dagger point

I'm not a big fan of this guy's techniques on colouring, but his artwork is pretty darn cool- check it out!!

Sketch video

<edit> I give up- I don't know why that first object wont embed it's self correctly. I'll link insteed T.T</edit>

...Was this guy trying to show what was possible with digital ink, or just a video on  how to trace over your line art? I don't see why this video was made. Pretty much anyone can trace over their line art with digital ink. And if that first image was the completed version, it's pretty half-assed. He didn't even ink the woman's hair but left all the pencil shadings everywhere! All he did was make an ink outline! And what are those things she's touching? Glass doors? Steel doors? Doors at all? Man, I can't believe how shitty this is...

Woah- hold your horses there hon. I don't consider it a tutorial at all- to me, he's a cool artist that was showing him going through his process of sketching then digetally inking. I don't think he did more than the face cause it was a  long enough video as it was. I don't see it as educational at all, but it's interesting to see how he does it since he profesionally does pin ups (this isn't his best one- this one is rather fastly done in comparison to his others), and not alot of people know how to set up a picture like this. You and I know and can critique all we like, but at the end of the day, I thought it was interesting (the music was great too), and even though I'm not a die hard fan of his (my friend is), I thought others may appreciate it alot. Alot of people ask him how he does it. He doesn't explain it in this at all (He has a Photoshop colouring tutorial on the net on his site, but that wouldn't interest you- it doesn't interest me. It's long winded and difficult T.T ), but his linearts are nice. I'm happy you looked at it, but I can't see it being your cup of tea since it's a cartoon style and not realism. To someone with more of a cartoon style, they'd find it more interesting to watch.
