Incidentally, I used to do a lot of my inking with crow quill pens. I had one favorite nib that I think I used for about five years, before the tip finally got bent and thus useless (a typical fate for these pen tips). -- PL

Triceraton with crow quill pen
I'm not sure why I drew this Triceraton in 1984 holding a crow quill pen, but it was probably for fun. I was trying out my airbrush around this time, too -- I used it for some of the shading on this piece.

.. not ever good with quills. Always break and my manic movements in art tends to be too much for them to handle. The ink breaks on me and messes up the entire work area ..
