What's a good resource for pen and ink technique? I guess the better question is how do I get as good at pen and ink as Bernie Wrightson's Frankenstein illustrations?

Guptill's book Rendering in Pen and Ink is the by far the best resource on it. It's very thorough, and is filled with a lot of exercises, ideas, and good examples. It's very dry though, so it will be tough to work your way through the entire thing.

Otherwise just study closely (both through copying and through looking and analyzing) the masters. Wrightson for example has obviously studied guys like Franklin Booth intensely.

Thank you, anon. Also looking into Charles Gibson, Charles Broughton, Edwin Howland Blashfield, Alice Barber Stephens and Willy Pogany. Here's another Wrightson Frankenstein for the help.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
