Another inking test, this time with Morgause. This is done entirely with a Pentel brush pen. By my standards, this is some bold inking :p. Added shading with a 9B Derwent graphite pencil. An alternative for the pencil would be ink wash, which is more permanent (no need for fixative) and doesn’t stain, but unlike pencil it can’t be erased, and since I am not exactly the Queen of Shading, the possibility of erasing stuff does sort of appeal to me…
Thoughts?
This is a very Morgause-y Morgause for me. I am having a hard time drawing her, somehow, but here she came out looking rather the way I think she should.
The speech bubble serves as a little reminder for some dialogue to come :).

Please, sister, let my parting be final gift to you.
The Queen of the North series by Lavinia Collins
A series of books about Morgause!
Morgause: I do want to meet all the knights here at Camelot.
Agravaine: Shall I accompany you to the dinner?
Morgause: If I go around with you, that will just make me seem like I am a mother.
Agravaine: I have never thought of you that way.
Morgause: Oh, thank you, sweetheart.

Personally, do you prefer Morgause and Morgan le Fay as separate characters or composited into Morgana?
Definitely ad separate characters! This is one of the things that annoy me the most, when suddenly Arthur has only one sister, or when Morgana and Morgause are merged (which rarely happens, I can think of Camelot Starz but mostly it’s Morgause disappearing and Morgana being the only sister).
At the their first family dinner
Morgause: I always say “Have enough servants to satisfy your every whim but not enough to murder your family.”
Arthur: Excellent point, Lady… Sister… Lady sister.
Morgana: Yes. Families should only be murdered during revolution.
