These are super useful, thanks for sharing! And those ink washes are beautiful. Are you using some reference for that or you just drawing these portraits from imagination?

These are mostly from imagination. I do use references in many occasions though.

Nice one, André. What are your output settings (are they comparable to Photoshop)? For example: 1200 pixels/inch resolution, halftone screen 120 lines/inch, angle 45 degrees, round shape?

The first few steps (adjusting the line work and converting it to bitmap) are actually done in Photoshop. I scan and work at 600 dpi (it's the industry standard) and the screen tones are indeed 45 degrees and round (it's the presets of Clip Studio, I didn't change that) and I bum the frequency from 60 to the max CS allows, which is 85. It does not specify if it's dpi, but it's the same principle.
