Hi, I’m an artist working with ballpoint pens on paper, I’ve made some pretty nice work with simple black on white, and recently I picked up a boatload of coloured ones. So far I’ve been unsuccessful in creating a good skin tone with them. Can anyone give me pointers as to how to get a skin tone down from pens?
