Anyone planning to do Inktober this year?
-
I'm gonna be there. Last year was my first time really attempting it and it turned out to be an amazing ride.
-
I'm going to try it again. My first time was also last year. It was great for thinking through concepts.... quickly! I didn't know about Inktober or see the list until the first day. This year, I signed up and received the prompt list already so, maybe I'll plan ahead and not feel so rushed!
-
I’m in. I didn’t know about inktober until a few day into it last year. This year I’m going to do greeting cards to go with the theme. I usually do watercolor first. But only for inktober I’m going to do the ink first. So dive in! It should be fun.
-
I did it last year and learned a lot. One glaring issue - I was pretty slow at coming up with a good drawing idea AND inking it all in one day. It was a bit too stressful. This year I'm going to start NOW - do my brainstorming and thumbnails this month, then do the inking part in October. . They already released the official prompts if you want to use those.
-
I’m definitely doing it!
One thing I’m gonna try this year is to use September to plan some. I’ll do some sketches or layouts, so that all I really have to do is sit down and ink once October comes around.
-
Yay, Inktober! Last year was the first time I completed all 31 drawings. I made a book out of it. I’m still figuring out my approach to this year’s prompts.
-
I'm planning to. The list seems really interesting. September is a really hectic month though, I can't prepare like I would have wanted. But yeah, definitely attempting it.
-
I’d really love to but I’m reviewing for our board exam. I have literally no time. Lol
-
I'd love to do it but will have to see if I have enough time. Otherwise I might just do it on a weekly basis or something like that. Last time I did a monthly challenge I ended up being way too ambitious and it was just too stressful
-
I will definitely doing it! It is my first so I am really pumped :).. I also ordered the inktober box from ArtSnacks to get the most out of it....
-
I am planning on it, though I also have a calendar project that might eat up my drawing time. We will see. The first Inktober I did (2 years back) inspired me to get back into drawing and illustration, (after a decade of neglect) so I highly recommended it to anyone!
-
@carriecopa Last year I did a Tarot cart deck and went as far as drawing them all out before hand so that all I needed to do was ink them each day. It worked great!
-
Definitely. I did it last year and it was a great experience. I was exhausted by the end of the month but it totally worth it.
-
Gonna give it a try, that's for sure
-
I'm starting to get excited about inktober again. I loved doing last year, though I jumped around like crazy. This year I'd like to keep to a pun theme. All I need to do is ask a bunch of dads what I should draw. Lol. Anyone have any ideas? What I've thought of so far : Cactipus (octopus cactus cross) Poultrygeist (a chicken ghost). Aaaaaand... that's all I've got so far. Hahaha
-
I'm in
it'll be my first time doing a challenge. I've always loved watching other people's drawings unfold
-
Yeah I'm in it. It will be my first year as well. I'm really excited
-
Yes! but I really need to focus on completed simple works so I can post everyday. Can we make a board on here for everyone who will participate? As well as the rules and the prompts each day?
-
That's my intention! Last year I did all my drawings 4 x 6", which made it much more manageable for me. Can't wait to see everyone's work!
