Welcome~ This looks good, by the way! Just be careful that you’re not prioritizing a line’s accuracy, but rather its confidence. That is to say, it’s more important for a line to be smooth, and straight, than it is for it to match its guideline, or hit the relevant end points.

Thank you very much for the feedback -- and the compliment!! I'll try to implement this advice, trying to have more confidence while drawing. Thanks again! :D

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
