Springtime in Philly (Part 1)

I rushed this one, but I don't care.  I need to do some drawing, so I did.  I will clean up page 2, maybe even re-do the whole thing, but if I just wait and keep waiting, it will never get done.  I need to do more drawing, inking, scanning, publishing on a nightly basis.  It is tough, though.

I was plagued with troubles tonight.  I felt rushed but I also felt the need to draw and complete something, even if it wasn't to my total satisfaction.  I started off by inking with calligraphy ink on bristol board, which in theory you would think would be fine, but the ink was feathering and it was blotchy, but I didn't notice I was using the wrong ink, so I switched pens and lo! and behold! more of the same feathering.  Then I realize I am not using my acrylic ink.  Of course, I switch to the correct ink and I start leaving some ink puddles (yes, like the blog's name) on the paper.  I had to use wite-out on some spots to make corrections.  Then the wite-out on my hands was interfering with how I was holding the pen.  Then the hours drag on.  I felt like scrapping the whole thing, starting over, using a brush instead of a pen, but that is for another time.

And you have to bear with me that the Sand People reference from Star Wars is leading somewhere.  Part 2 will be posted soon enough.
