Inking a CLASSIC Superman in Clip Studio Paint! ✍️

by 01.17.2026

Watch an inking demonstration on this classic Superman piece by Al Plastino! I’m using Clip Studio Paint to bring these pencils to life.

In this demo, you’ll see the “Before and After” transformation and how I approach line work, spotting blacks, and interpreting the original penciler’s intent. Whether you are a traditional artist moving to digital or looking to refine your CSP skills, this video gives you an over-the-shoulder look at professional comic book inking.
