      @Nyrryl-Cadiz Yeah do you remember when I drew that "Halloween in the Philippines" drawing I made? Maybe that could be a prompt for you!alt text

        As october will be a difficult month this year, I want to try a simpler yet useful thing, some handwritten inky nice text, following the prompts. I got the idea after failing painfully on adding some nice text to the last svs challenge drawing….

          @Nyrryl-Cadiz I'll be posting but I won't be doing the Inktober prompts I saw on Instagram. I thought I'd take the time to post project related things instead.

            I’ve been debating whether or not to do it but I have found a couple of non-official prompt lists that sound interesting, like fairy tale characters. Last year I did sea creatures which yielded a lot of beautiful pieces

              I love your idea @Nyrryl-Cadiz ! I would love to see inky artwork about Filipino culture. I'm doing Inktober this year. I've been planning for a month already! I have to be super organized if I'm going to pull it off. I've never managed more than a handful of prompts in the past. This year I'm determined to make it to the end. I'm using the official Inktober prompt list, and interpreting each prompt as it would relate to the Wizarding World in Harry Potter. 😁

                  @Nyrryl-Cadiz Your idea to do pieces on Filipino culture is very interesting!

                  I might make a few ink pieces for Inktober just to try. I haven't done an art challenge before, but having something I need to post on social media would help me remember 😹

                    @Nyrryl-Cadiz I’m planning on it this year again. I’m doing two things: with my students I am doing one big picture with all the prompts, and then I am also going to work on my anatomy and figure drawing as well as character design by using poses from an anatomy book I bought to design figures based on the prompts. I am theming it to be adventure/steam punk. Quite a challenge and a lot of fun but that’s what I get to when I teach art for a living.

                    I already have my big pic sketched out ( and inked the first three prompts because (a) I was excited, and (b) I may not have time this weekend.

                      @Asyas_illos I’m game! I usually create one each year, but I can pass the torch to you!

                        @Nyrryl-Cadiz With the exception of last year, I’ve been doing it since 2015… which restarted my love of drawing. Sometimes I used the prompts sometimes I just did my own daily thing. It’s not easy fitting it in, but I think I’ll try again. Good luck to you!

                            @Asyas_illos I usually do it as weeks or prompt numbers. It’s more manageable that way.

                              I decided to do a fairytale prompt list this year, Hoping to keep it simple so we'll see how this goes!
