ATC Pen & Ink, Round 1

This is a challenge to make a fully drawn ATC with pen & ink. You want to express your image with line art. It is sender's choice on subject matter and style.

You will send out 1 ATC to 1 person. The ATC must be a standard size of 2.5" x 3.5".

Ò–º Use any artist grade pen and ink, ideas include: dip pen / quill, India ink, sumi-e ink, fountain pens, felt tipped pens including Faber-Castell PITT, Sakura Pigma Micron, Tombow, Stabilo, Staedtler, etc. Please no gel, ballpoint, rollerball pens or Sharpies.

Ò–º Paper the back side so it looks finished. Please sign and date your work.

Ò–º Make sure the ATC has a stable core or is on a heavy Bristol board, Paris paper or thicker paper.

Ò–º Include your screen name, the name of the swap and round number in the envelope when you mail it.

Ò–º Please message me with any problems with partners or any technical problems. I will angel any flaked cards.

Please explain "fully drawn"

Once you have the pen and ink completed, is it okay to add a light color tint with colored pencil or watercolor to the drawing?

Yes, I agree with these ladies. The requirement of "Fully drawn" is slightly unclear. Are we settling with a simple black and white outline image? Or are we doing shading and tinting as well?

@kingm21

You can shade / render as you want. I'm indicating 'fully drawn' to mean no rubber stamps, stickers, collage, stencils, etc.

Thanks!

Fully drawn, got it now, was thinking as entire ATC has to be used as your illustration shows.
