Loving how the new Hues chapter is coming out! I really like aesthetic change as well! What made you decide to change it up if I may ask?

Couple reasons!

First, inking is a skill I’ve been ignoring for years and I’ve decided to improve it.  So what better way to do it than make it part of my regular routine?

Secondly, time.  I’m slowly introducing more simplified techniques into The Hues so that any given page will hopefully take me less time to make, and therefore I can get more pages done in advance.  As well as make time for myself to work on commissions and side projects. :)

Inking the comic helps because it takes care of a lot of readability issues in the figures, and it takes a lot of weight off me at the shading stage since I don’t have to spend as much time rendering the folds on clothing and such.

That’s a lot of technical stuff in there, but basically, trying to develop and expand my skills, and trying to save some time! :D  Thank you for the kind words!
