Pencils or Inks?

  1. 1. If you could only PICK ONE, which would it be?

    • all pencil, no ink
      17
    • all ink, no pencil
      18
    • I'd get both in spite of your stupid false-choice poll!

is it really that hard to understand?!

 

Yes, because there are more options than you allow, e.g., is the inker the same person as the penciler or a different person?

By the way, my experience says that if a piece with ink over pencil goes for $1 then the pencil by itself will go for $0.67 and the inks over blue line for $0.33. That's the same result you found above.

There aren't more options -for the poll- than I allow, my initial posts just weren't clear enough on that. Two pictures; two choices; that's all. Sorry.

That's interesting but I'm not sure that because we know b and c we can extrapolate a from that. Not enough information, imo, so anecdotal.

Instinctually, that sounds right, but from an intellectual perspective, it doesn't make any sense. I would generally buy the inks, but sometimes, pencils have a tonality which I don't think is captured with straight inks.
