This is a pen sketch of Owl-lee, a character of mine, and my sister; Jimarie, who you can fine in this Link: [link]
I tried scanning in the original pencil work, but my stupid scanner acts weird when it comes to light pencil work, and only scans half the picture!!! >_<
What am I to do?
Do I just use brute force? …Maybe…
LOL. Shame on me, I guess…
Well enjoy, and let me know what you think. ^^

Your scanner probably has autocrop. Force it to scan the whole page by surrounding the picture with black card, or preview the scan before you scan it It's easy to crop of info- not so easy to add >.>

Oh- small tip for you. when doing curves, draw the curve from the inside of the arc- then you'll get a nice smooth line

  Thank you 4 the comment greatly appreciated, I'll definately use the croping trip! The second tip about the lines, well... edge type of inking is a fav of mine a style, but thank you so much for the comment!

  I don't think you see what I mean with the inking. With your moon for instance, the line is wobbly. if you drew the curve from the inside of it rather than the outside, or dragging your hand around with the curve (this may require you to turn the page around to do), then your line would be smoother. You can still have your rough edges. This'll just make your forced curves alot easier to draw. This is just a tip I've picked up in my travels.
