What does inking mean? Anonymous Tue Mar 20 20:49:56 2018 No.3353079 [Reply] [Original]

Okay so I commissioned an artist to draw me a picture, and after drawing, shading, and coloring a bit of it, they sent me a picture of their progress. They said that "inking will go slower" and I was wondering if that means coloring or not since the picture I commed was digital. Pic unrelated.
