Traditional Inking Tutorial 8D

Umm.. since quite some people asked me how I do lineart, and make them so clean... so I decided to make a tutorial on how I do traditional inking XD;; Some of the principles could be applied to digital inking as well!! Well, I think it's better to master the basics (lineart) first then only proceed to the next step (colors) eh?? This is the first time I'm making a tutorial, so forgive me if I made any spelling mistakes or typo mistakes ya!!

Feel free to comment or ask questions!! 8D

I took reference on the style of this tutorial XD;; Although it's a completely different kind of tutorial though XP
Yume's painter tutorial

Artwork inspired by this kind of 'creature' in a shoujo manga, I dunno how to translate the title nor the mangaka name... Here's the manga cover!! There's this kind of 'beings' in the manga called Spicas. The artwork's design is based off those Spicas :3

Extra tips:
- For those of you having a hard time drawing long curvy lines, you could try getting something called a Curve Ruler for practise!! 8D You could get it in most stationery shops I think!!

What do u use to color your drawings that you outline??
Adobe Photoshop, sometimes I use my prismacolor markers to color them too ^^
How old are you?
Errr... there's a clue on my front page...
I'd love to see some reflectiveness in the eyes also.
OK this isn't a question, but I usually do the eye details, the iris, highlights and the reflection when I'm colouring later!! ^^
If i do alot of sketchy stuff like 10000 layers >.< (exagerating) of lines over one place does it effect inking?
Well, if you feel that it's impossible to clean the pencil sketch later, probably you should put a paper on top to trace the sketch again ^^ Or if you're brave enough, you could trace-ink instead of trace-sketch too, a lightbox helps!! ^^
Could I ask what kind of paper you worked with, and how large it was?
DoubleA paper (Thai company, dun think it's available in UK/US yet o_O;; ) it's 80gsm, A4 sized
And did you go through any process during scanning to make the lines so crisp and neat, and the background so white?
After I scan I adjusted the brightness and contrast a little, just a little, and I clean off all the dusts and little spots with photoshop's eraser tool ^^
