        Finally got there in the end. I'm scared of ink now and I want to go back to my digital tablet.....

          @Gary-Wilkinson values and due to that readability is much better than in your digital first draft.

            It's been awesome seeing everyone's entries! Here's mine. I wanted to approach this illustration as an extension of my Inktober 52 series - just my brush pen and linework (with a little digital cleanup right at the end ;))

              Hi! Here is my entry for this month 🙂 I wanted to try and make a few spot illustrations. Not perfect but it was fun! I inked them on watercolour paper and added the text in photoshop. Everyone's entries are sooo good! Good luck to you all!
              Now back to Inktober prep 😁

                    This is my submission for the September contest.
                    I really like the prompt, it gave me some very fun ideas.
                    And I got to brush up on my ink work.
                    Thanks everyone for participating in SVSLearn! This is such a great community.
                    I love seeing all of your submissions.

                        This was a challenge! My first time using ink washes. Learned a lot! This was done on arches watercolor paper, with Higgins ink and micron pens, with my text done in procreate. Love seeing everyone’s work! 0BD4F8B1-C875-40C1-BC8F-ED4C0E01C966.jpeg

                          Love the idea of an ink fairy working behind the scenes to better our illustrations!

                                  Just barely made it, not much time these days. I look forward to seeing all the entries on the slideshow 🙂

                                      @Gary-Wilkinson Thanks! I wanted to hint that she's having a good dream, maybe that she's actually met the Ink Fairy instead of falling asleep again.

                                        Ok, done! This is actually early for me, haha. Usually I’m right up to the deadline lol.

                                          Made a book spread my ink fairy!
                                          Since this was digital, I tried to keep everything to what I could manage with black and white pens, though I might have gone a little wild with all the ink washes for this challenge... But I'm happy with how it turned out! ☺
