Thanks! Yes, it's sort of amazing to watch a drawing transform through the stages... I'll sometimes show my husband a sketch, but he doesn't really get it until I've done some inking, like it translates the message I was going for. lol
Ha, yeah it's sort of funny that we follow the same process, on paper or digitally. When I've done digital painting in the past, I still did all the sketching and inking on paper.
