Inking yeh

An inker is one of the two line artists in comic books or graphic novels. After the penciller had finished his sketches he hands them to the inker who uses black ink to produce refined outlines over the pencil lines. The ink is a applied with a pen but can also be done digitally. The inker is responsible for every black line on the page except for lettering. Inkers however are less recognised than pencillers because essentialy they are just drawinbg over the pencillers work.
