Hey, I was wondering if anyone knew of some good photoshop brushes for digitally inking art work? I'm a graduate student going for Illustration and so far I've mostly just used tight pencil drawings, messed with the levels, and then colored it that way but I'm trying to find a way to get some cleaner looking lines without the hassle of fussing over an imaged I scanned in.
A good example is the B/W up on the front page right now that Gabe did, with varying textures to the line but it still has the clean look.
If you are serious about digital illustration you should probably worry about getting a tablet. Line width variation comes from the pressure sensitivity a tablet with pen input gives you.

That being said, it is frowned upon to start new threads here without your art in them. I would suggest posting some and moving the above question to the Questions, Discussion, Tutorials that is sticky-ed on the top of the threads page.
