I’ve never put together a dedicated inking portfolio.

Given that I started my comic career as an inker, and the majority of my work-for-hire comic book work has been as an inker, that might seem odd.

The truth is I never really pursued inking work. It was just offered to me when I showed my portfolio of fully inked art.

I’ve done my share of test and tryout pages at an editors request, but I’ve never attempted inking other artists work as an exercise or as portfolio pieces with the purpose of showing to land inking work.

I’ve been toying with changing that.

I got my hands on some scans of Nick Derington’s Doom Patrol pencils, and I must say, these pages were a lot of fun to work on.

Once I finished these up I started inking some Teen Titans pages by José Luis García-López that I found on the internet a while back. But, I lost steam as I realized I had pressing work on my own projects that needed doing.

I might return to those pages when I have some more downtime and see if I can’t put together a proper inking portfolio someday. In the meantime, this is a gallery of a few of the new samples, and a few pages of my published inking work.
