I worked a little more with the brush pen tonight and decided I’ll definitely be sticking with the dip pen for Inktober.

It's good to know what tools are best for you at least

@Braden-Hallett both look good. On my phone I can't really tell a difference.

braden H

@chrisaakins That's also good. Means I can use whichever one I feel like

Doing some test subjects for my Inktober project. Character study on a balloon . I’m thinking simple is better. It’s going to be the only color in the whole project so I think value lines might jam it up. Although I do like #2 as well as #3, Counterclockwise from the bottom left

@ambiirae sorry for the delayed reply. It’s a new one they released for Inktober. I think it’s just an inking demo for follow along purposes. Haven’t gone through yet, been busy with kids. Hoping to make it happen this weekend.

@burvantill Very nice! i was gonna compliment your badoons even before I read your comment

I'm partial to the simplest middle one, too. It's the one that says 'shiny' to me the most.

I shamelessly stole practice ideas from you people posting your work lol and did a bit of practice today. Hopefully that's ok!!!!!
I have been doing scattered bits of inking, mostly I am just trying to get some sketches done for some of the prompts, hoping to get at least 6 days of participating in, hopefully 10. Being new to illustration I am working very slowly doing tons of thumbnails and research and trying to have decent composition and perspective too............

My daily practice today. Got a bit side tracked from the form line practice. I was trying to figure out something I would like to do for inktober. I might try to use ink to paint for this inktober. Excited to continue the value and light and shadow practice next week. I think I might try with ink wash to make value and light/shadow.

@chrisaakins -I can see you progress-but I am stunned and envious of how you turn this practice/exercise into a composition with variety and interest. Love it

chrisaakins

Here is my practice. You can tell what I've been watching on TV. Also footballs are surprisingly hard to draw.
@Susan-Marks thanks for your kind words!

Did some simple practice today. It is definetly starting to feel better probably do some more but figured I better get my photo in before we loose power to this thunder storm

This was my favorite for today

Thinking of doing 31 pups of october based off our 4 month old pup Cujo

When it comes to practice, there is no stealing, only sharing

@xin-li I think an ink wash is a great idea kinda like watercolour but much more awesome!

oblate spheroids are the bane of my existence. Yours looks pretty awesome, though

Little by little, slowly but surely I feel exactly the same way.

Also, 31 pups of inktober is a great idea!

ambiirae

@Braden-Hallett thanks! still thinking over how I wanna go about it but sort of leaning more cartoonish with costumes

@ambiirae I like your balloons. I was having a tough go of it shading my balloons. Your dark one turned out good.
