filth: the ink drawings of derek setzer

[FourTonMantis]

I've been on this forum for quite awhile. I started doing digital art when I was 16, and while I still find it really enjoyable, it was only recently that I've discovered my true passion: ink. I used to be really bad at ink and was afraid to try it for a long time. The more I discovered about it, though, the more I fell in love with the inked aesthetic. I decided to just go for it and am now completely enamored by it. I can say for the first time in my life that I am confident about my ability to create art. This thread will consist solely of finished ink art. I would love any comments/critique/encouragement. You can find more on my tumblr or on instagram: askionkataskion.

Those ink drawings must take lots of patience and concentration.
I assume you are using indian ink with pointed unflexed nibs, right?

One of the most interesting ink styles I have seen in a long time. Very bold and very confident. I love the detail and I could stare at these all day. Thought about creating a book? If you do make one PM me as I would love to feature it on my art blog. Keep up the awesome work.
