Those straight lines are beautiful. What does the color red and blue mean when you made out those sketches? Noob question I know. But I only use black. Are these to show transitions between actions?

Heya! Thanks! and sorry for the late reply, been busy af.
the blue and red leads are just lighter and less likely to show up when I scan something in, in black and white. They are softer lead and take a little getting used to so I just used them all the time, even on preliminary sketches. a side benefit is I can rough sketch with blue and then refine it a bit or make changes in red and it's easy to see what is what....if I used one color for the rough and refined/changes, it'd be a big grey mess.
I see. I saw some other artists do their line works with other colors but never really asked what the lines meant. I know it's a technique to draft for animation but it it's used may be different for static images and for different artists. Thanks! I learned something about colored leads just now :D
