Ink portraits

Beautifully done, great simple lines. they are both really good, but I like the 2nd one due to the cheeky expression, it's (almost) hard for me to believe that these are done on the computer rather than actual marker !!

Yeah, really nice. Are they from reference?

They were both based on old sketches I had on my computer. The second one was originally sketched from photo reference, the first one was just imagination.

Looks like a fading sharpie. I dig it.

I was playing around with an ink brush setting that I bought for Photoshop. Usually when I render something in PS, I do progressive layers of "penciling" until the values get darker and then I use some sort of ink brush to go over the darker areas, do holding lines, etc. Using this brush I kinda skip over a lot of that process. What do you guys think of the result?
