Tools of the Trade: Layout, Pencilling, Inking
Pretty much my complete arsenal for non-digital work:

- T-Square (Good for horizontal lines)
- French Curve (For inking clean curves)
- Craft Knife (For cutting paper to the correct page size: 27.94cm x 43.18cm)
- Cheap Technical Pencil – BIC 0.7mm (To do concept and layout sketches)
- White Eraser (To erase big areas)
- Expensive Technical Pencil – Staedtler Mars Technico (For doing final page pencils 2H-3H leads)
- Pen Eraser – Uni Auto Eraser (Erasing small areas)
- BIC Red Ballpoint Pen (To make notes on the script and layouts)
- Rotring ArtPen (Flat nib calligraphic pen for getting certain ink lines)
- Prismacolor Col-Erase Blue (For throwing down sketch lines to work from)
- Winsor & Newton #3 Cotman 111 (Just for filling in blacks)
- Hunt #102 Quill Pen (General inking)
- Toilet Paper (For cleaning ink off stuff)
- Water (To wash brush/pen)
- Pebeo India Ink (For use with brush and quill)
