getting a decent pen

I've seen an artist use gel pins for inking before, with great results. The larger areas he did with some of those markers that can get you stoned, but the small stuff was all fine line gel pen.
I have to retrace areas like 2-3 times.
My advice: Rushing = hell. Do not rush. Do not even think of rushing. Go very very slowly.
For pens, In school one of my buddies used to use those Pilot precise rolling ball pens, the kid drew thing that look like they came right out of a comic book. I use the same type for some of my models, other than that get a radiograph. Or could try calligraphy/archiving pen, they sell them in wall mark for a few bucks in by the crafts section, usually by the X-acto knifes.

The lines are blotchy and uneven. And a decent pen would mean something that doesn't have its ink "suddenly fade away" for a bit then come back.I have to retrace areas like 2-3 times.
Do you use no bleed paper?

I don't really like inking the panel lines on my models. Gives them too much of a cartoony look. Some places on certain models are good to detail like that, of course, but doing the whole model takes away from it, in my opinion. [ 04-18-2002: Message edited by: Densetsu ]

Depends on how thick and how much ink you put on the lines. Some of them ,like the little Turn X I have, the lines really thick becuse I want it to look like a cartoon. But on the wing zero I have put on thin lines that I wiped away, makes them faded and just enough to make them stand out a wee bit. Most of the time a pen is easier to do than a Black wash, I guess it depends on how weathered you wish it to look. [ 04-19-2002: Message edited by: Pyscho_Pike ]
