For the past 2 years I've outlined with nothing but Gold caps or Astros.. Even my skinny line work. To ask who has rubbed off on who is interesting. Berst is probably one of the main people I have a 'style dialogue' with these days, I do something, he reinterprets, I then build from that, he flips it, I come back with my reply. Basically we both have a lot of ideas in common we are going for but he is a lot less restrained than me and it shows.
What I mean by that is I'm still a little held back by my age and the era I came from where things were sticker clean. Berst is pretty free of that.
