Tower Line Work

When the pencils for a drawing are particularly messy, I like to treat the outline like I would a really large tattoo.

(Ink on Paper)

I line everything with the lightest weight, erase all of the pencil, and then go in with blacks. I’m sure there are smarter inkers/tattoers than me who can hold their plan in mind when staring at chaos, but sometimes I need a little clarity.
