I jes' love seeing texture in an ink drawing, and very few are better at texture in ink drawings than Virgil Finlay was, in pulps and other venues, such as The American Weekly.
love his stuff! i recall a time many moons ago when i was interested in emulating a pen and ink style akin to his...but then i decided i wanted to finish more than 6 pictures in my entire life! how he did what he did and in such quantities is beyond me! great post!

My name is Thom Buchanan.
I'm an artist and photographer.
People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years.
I refer to myself as a pictorialist, a combination of image-making and journalist. Images are my life.
