I think every artist has a medium or two that they are extremely fond of and it was part of their first step towards being an "artist". I use to want be a comic book artist and devoted myself to learning how to ink. Inking isn't just tracing over a pencil image; it's more than that. Inking an image will add an extra level of life to an image that wasn't there before. As much as I work solely digitally for my finish work, I love inking a drawing and doing that well so every now and then I'll create little small drawings just to keep in practise or see how far I've come.
