This is my how to page, I intend to show you how it is I do what I do with pen and paper. Please follow along if you wish.

Tools.
 
     1.) A pencil and eraser. (I prefer mechanical pencils.)
 
     2.) Black ink pen. I use Bic's.
 
     3.) A black sharpie or other permanent marker.
 
     4.) Colors, lots and lots of colors. (Markers, pens, pencils, chalk, pastels, whatever floats your boat.)

I always start off by drawing a rough sketch, so I can play with the image and make changes to every thing.

Now that I've got the picture roughly how I want it to look, I use a black pen to make all the lines darker and permanent. After the ink dries, it's time to erase all of the pencil marks and the general shadows that pencils make.
 

I skipped the sharpie this time.

And now it's time to color the picture.
