Digitalisation Of Sketches

Today I began digitalising the ink drawings I'd done in my sketchbook on photoshop. These were all made using a graphics tab and pen which I will definitely be using more of in the future as it gives me so much hand control for doing hand lettering and drawing digitally. I like the second and fourth outcomes but I think the other two look really flat, I was expecting this to be the case as the more simple designs have more texture when made using ink which doesn't translate well digitally. 

I think next I'll try working with a limited colour palette and using soft floral colours and more texture. In my crit today we spoke about how the idea of this project is a kind of black humour and this monochrome colour palette doesn't show much of that personality. I'd like to play more on the darkness of the subject matter and the humour of the quotes, whilst still representing this visually.
