Drew this mean biker rat character using:

Prismacolor Col-erase colored pencil to sketch
Sharpie to ink
And finished it out with Copic gray marker for the tones

Since this drawing was just for fun, I decided to try and ink it fast and loose, not worrying too much about how clean or pristine the linework turned out. It was a nice stress relief to ink it that way.
