Okay, I'm gonna ask what you guys use to ink. If you use computers to ink inform me of the software. If you ink traditionally say so.

Reason is that I'm currently inking with Flash which does the job well enough, it leaves thin, spidery lines that look ugly. I can delete these and it gives a nice no lines effect but I want something nice to ink with.

So please, share your opinions but keep the big art words dumbed down enough for someone who scribbles out of boredom.

I hate inking but when I do, I ink traditionally. I trace the ink onto a different piece of paper rather than right on top of the drawing, mostly because I hate inking and I don't want to ruin the original with my ink job. I usually use some fine felt tip, but I want to try out some ball points for finer detail. After that, I scan in Photoshop, take to Streamline, convert, take into Flash, ungroup, ungroup, smooth, smooth, undo, back to Photoshop.
