Flynt asked, "what kind of brush do you use when you get to the lineart phase of drawings?" (Patreon)

I've seen how other artists past around their special pen packs, for all of these visual effect and stuff. But I don't care about that.

My stuff is typically you out of the box pens, with a high rate of stroke smoothing but nothing else. No bells or whistles.

Now I included the eraser I use because I feel that's the most important tool I use. Because while you might see me implement a more finished stroke look to my stuff, I am constantly erasing or shaving down lines when I draw. 

If you've ever seen me stream that the way I draw is more akin to sculpting than regular doodling. Because the shapes I want to capture can rarely be reached with a single pass. We've all seen artists who just let the ink stay where it stays, but I can't do that. I'm a control freak and I want to control the shape and appearance of my strokes.

So I will often build things up with the sketch pen and shave them back down with the eraser. And only after I'm happy do I take the ink pen and try to go for finished strokes, but even then the eraser get used throughout.
