Cryptid♡Crush ink & screentones test (+more!) (Patreon)

yippiee!! guess who's back!! its me yahoo!!! sorry i keep disappearing, i was out of town for a week with family and then sadly there was a surprise unfortunate event in the family as well but all is okay and i have been DYING to get back into it so!!! just in case you all are curious about what's going on with these here it is:

Test #1: this is essentially the first test i ever did a few months ago that I had settled on due to the contrast and ease with this brush, it's my go to inker, but i think I want to try something different for when it actually comes time to ink C♡C

Test #2: This inker looked promising but i didn't really end up liking the feel of it as I started using it... maybe for another project! I do like the idea of keeping the shading super simple... but I feel like it needs a texture or something fs...

Test #3: So this is entially the style I've been working with for my most recent mini comics along with a few illustrations of Fern here and there but in B&W. I LOVE the textures the wet edges give me especially when scrubbing with the white gauze... it adds volume and interest without too much work! (and the inking was fast!) 

Test #4: This was me REALLY committing to the manga/hentai bit and sadly.. i do LOVE the look of it LMAO... The inker takes a little longer to get just right since its so thin but the end result is veryyy tasty, and the screentones were the fastest for me to use in terms of shading options so they balance each other out!

Overall I'm looking for the perfect balance of speed but quality, easy to use especially since i will be using them to draw the same characters over and over again, good high b&w contrast, nice mid tones, and something that won't make me want to kms when doing backgrounds LMAO... I think I will think on it more and then maybe try a test page or two!!! We shall see!!!

wholesome threesome doodle w Max, Fern, and Marcus! Pre-T Fern concept art for a potential flash back later on in the series, and the sketches I used for the test! Thank you so much for sticking around!!! Love you all!! I really want to make this project a reality so here's hoping to sticking to it and having fun yahoo! ♡
