Inktober aftermath! Lets make a showcase with all the pieces we each did! Also, thoughts on this inktober?

These are also great questions!

My thoughts on this years Inktober:
I decided early on to post just 3 drawings a week, but it defeated the purpose of developing daily drawing habits and it was pretty tough to maintain momentum.
I stuck to the same 2 characters and universe and used the prompts to write blurbs similar to your works actually! I intend to take a break from it this month since I have lots of life stuff going on but I plan to finish this booklet before 2021 ends.
I was feeling pretty anxious about staying on top of social media so I don't think I was able to maximize Inktober in that way
I feel like I learnt to simplify compositions a lot better and experiment with textures with this project. All in all it was a pretty fun challenge to do as a community #noregrets

Wow ! Very cool project ! Congrats for doing Inktober ! I never was able to finish the 31 illustrations!

@donnamakesart these are wonderful. Congrats for your achievement. I'm in awe of everyone's Inktober. It seems quite an intense challenge so going at your own pace seems good idea otherwise you may be put off and end up abandoning your project and that would be a shame as it's great.

@lizardillo thanks so much! And agreed. The community around Inktober is really what pumps me to do the challenge. It's always kind of bittersweet when it ends

Here’s my showcase of Penelope & Bunny!

Which is your favorite?

[lizardillo]

@Jeremy-Ross I like all of these. I think the Raven one may be my favourite if I had to pick one as I like it’s expression. Congrats on making such a great suit of illustrations.

Thank you for your kind words @lizardillo!

@donnamakesart Thanks for the kind words! I loved how confident your use of black became near the half of it! Social media anxiety is a true virus, I get you. But we have to remember, that it really doesn't matter if you show it to a bunch of strangers in the end. I have heard of really few instances that artists get jobs from Instagram. Focus where it really matters! Anyways, I loved your showcase!

@ValD You are awesome!Do it at your own pace, or abandon ship and get on to a next project if you feel it was not fullfilling!!

@Jeremy-Ross I really loved your contest entry one.the sprout one! So good! Nice showcase!

These look good @Georgios-Christopoulos @Jeremy-Ross and @donnamakesart ! Here is a pic of my stuff. I did all 31 days but I put just the alphabet into the picture to see what it would look like.

[Jeremy Ross]

Great job with the alphabet book @chrisaakins!

it's pretty interesting to see how varied our styles are even when everyone is using black and white only
