I feel like this is one of my cleaner sketches I suppose. But it was also one of the ones I took the most time on as well… I’m usually very bad at taking time to sketch stuff since I have a tendency to rush things.

No problem. The marker lining technique was actually something I set in motion, (I used to draw like this over 20 years ago), but the style’s been adopted by loads of artists here since.
Sketch, line in, erase the pencil sketch, then colour the result.
Thank you for the suggestions. :) Although it might be a while before I feel the desire to attempt anything again, let alone touching up this one. My more recent things end up getting the ‘me pressing harder with my pencil or going over my pencil lines multiple times to make it more visible’ approach…. It usually don’t turn out too well really. I also lack the patience to take my time like I did with this one very often.
Not bad, but you might want to try going over the lines with a fine marker pen, then erase the original drawing. It’ll make the image stand out a lot better.
