Got my confidence back a bit today, just need to find my specific weaknesses and attack them head on. Today is eyes, trying to get a 3D / rounded look to them, realised mine look pretty flat which is what is making them look dead.

And started doing these warm ups before I ink. From Gary Martin's 'The art of comic book inking'. He says to nail the strokes perfectly in these exercises before trying to ink any kind of character (spacing / thickness / angle / thick to thinness). Gonna try to do these every time I use the ink brush:
