Brown paper sketches

I've also liked working with med - dark backgrounds so instead of using contes, I use pens. For the white effect, I used a Kikki-K white ink pen which was given to me as a birthday present. I had troubles with it as it's only used for writing and not drawing. At least I could do some smudging with a finger. Here are some of my test sketches using white ink pen and black ballpoint.
