Another Shieldmaiden I drew using half tones.

Do you enjoy using halftones or is this a one-time experiment?

JakeTerror responds:

I've done them with my Fantasy Bastard Pages and my Sabu Drawing.

Halftones are a fun little technique that makes my work feel more vintage, and my colors a bit less garish.

One of the drawbacks is that you have to keep all four colors on separate layers on multiply for it to work (similar to the original process used to color on newspaper).

You do lose out on being able to use the fill bucket with this, but it's rarely if ever necessary.

While I personally enjoy playing with it, I do worry that it doesn't translate well to Digital Media.
At the same time it's probably me overthinking it. What do you think of how it's being implemented?
