It looks good, though. It might be gray as is, but I compliment you on your blending. |_P


Ahhh water down the ink. I made the mistake of applying it straight on and it pretty much went back to black so I had to start over. I do agree it is more grey than black. It'll take me a bit of practice but hopefully when I find a way of doing it i can use that method on black hair, armour, robes etc

Acrylic paint you always have to water down the paints to a constancy that is not to thick but not to thin.

That goblin looks good. I will agree with knightkrawler, your blending and highlights are excellent. |_P
