      This is gonna be my 3rd year doing inktober. Last year I got the opportunity to meet Jake Parker at the NYC inktober event he hosted. It was really fun. This year im doing watercolors and ink. Im playing with different watercolor sets to see how they look and feel (not the expensive artist grade ones though) and doing frog themed inktober. Last year i did gnomes. We’ll see how this year’s turns out!

        will there be a "official" inktober thread where everyone posts theire stuff or is it community driven and one of us has to open one?

          @Molambo thats a great idea! Would a single Inktober thread be good or would it be better if there was a new one each week? One per day seems like it might be a little much.

              Everyone that is planning to participate in Inktober this year is also invited to participate in the Inktober Edition of the Featured Student challenge. Head over to this post to share some of your drawings after Inktober begins.

                weekly seems to be a good idea.

                  This will be my first year doing Inktober. I am theme-ing the whole thing with the word “Vote” and voting encouragement, cause I think it’s important to vote! I have already completed about 11 inked drawings! I am super excited. I am hastagging it all with #votetober too if anyone else wants to make a voting piece.

                    And I am doing them all traditionally with Copic multiliners and markers. A little brush pen too.

                        Inktober 2020 Little Witches JudyElizabethWilson 72 00 version2.jpg
                        Hey guys!!! I am doing Inktober this year. My theme is Little Witches in their cute and creepy world. I want to add some new Halloween art to my portfolio. I have drawn some very rough sketches and will do most of the picture making in October alongside making a picture book dummy. I will post every other day so will create 16 ink pictures in total. Really looking forward to see what awesome art illustrators create this year!!!

                            I am going to follow the prompt list ans plan to complete it this year.
                            I have a style of illustration that I don't do much lately that I would like to get back too so I plan to do that but I think I want to do the official prompts and link each image together somehow in a kind of ethereal dream like way.
                            There may be some fairies involved and I might do all of them on one surface rather than individual surfaces but I would post each section for each day.
                            I think I will try to draw this out ahead of time so I can ink a section at a time.
                            Ohhh better get drawing then.

                            Looking forward to it.

                                          @Molambo This is great! I really like the fishe's expression. Sorry I didn't get the thread up earlier (I will try and post it a day early for the rest of the month). Here is a link to the thread.

                                            Hi guys! This is my second Inktober. I took part for the first time last year and managed to complete all the 31 prompts!

                                            I am working with the official prompt list this year, but with a running theme focused on fantasy and magical creatures. So, by the end of Inktober, I will have 31 new characters! Next year, I would like to do the official prompt list and create my own list as well!

                                            I took the whole of September to get the ideas in place. All my characters have been penciled out already.

                                            Last year, I did Inktober to get some of my ideas fleshed out, for a book I'm writing. The book is something of a personal project/ hobby that I do from time to time when I feel like escaping reality, and just want to unwind. Inktober helps me practise and improve on my conceptualisation and line work. I also have been working with different materials and mediums now, to get more experience in that sense.

                                            I will colour in these characters for Slowvember and create a collage of all 31 characters together.
