Inking...

[The Dreamer]

I'm curious about how the manga artists ink their pictures. I know that they first draw a sketch, then draw it clearly with pencil and ink it to make the lines stronger, but what tools do they use to ink? Do they use markers (I doubt it), some kind of brush, or something else? If anyone could help I would be grateful.

First comes the lineart (borders) then ink, which depends on the artist whether, he'll use marker or something other than that, anyway are you also going to make mangas ? If so then please VM or PM me too some of your pages

Make new type of manga, do something different than every manga creator did. Try to color it with the help of computer! I prepared my own manga's one chapter with colors 2 years ago.

there are many ways to ink
the traditional way : using chines ink and a 0.5 brush or the brush pen
the modern way : markers and there are many many markers to use from 0.5 to 0.8 and more it depends on how deep and thin you want your lines to be , inking is indeed the hardest part of any drawing , i have messed up my drawings because of it many times , though by practices it gets easy
