#fauxInktober - Who’s with me?

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@burvantill hahahahaha LOL! sure thing! thank you so much for the support. That means a lot.

[nasvikdraws]

Cool. I'll be following your progress!!!!

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@nasvikdraws thank you! Will you be doing Inktober too?

[nasvikdraws]

Yup. I already started laying out but I know I won't be able to make it by the end of October. It is more like and "Inkautumn" for me

[Coley]

I'm still struggling with inking lol, I have sketches done for 10 prompts, not sure how they will look inked and I'm expirimenting anyhow so I may join for some! I might end up doing a bit of both real and fake inktobers lol!!! Cool idea to have it;s own hashtag!

[TessaW]

Oh man it's tempting! I like the tag #fauxinktober. I get a little irritated when people use the #inktober tag and aren't doing ink at all. #fauxinktober seems appropriate though for those who aren't into ink but want to join in on the party. Love it!

Put me down as a "maybe"! I want to join in on the rebellion but need to clear out some other art commitments first.

[Nat Lundeen]

I think that sounds great, love your #fauxinktober idea. I love inking but it's more of a hobby because I don't use it in my professional work, so I've been thinking about doing something similar. I'm think mine's going to be a #gouachetober.

[Kristin Wauson]

I will definitely keep this in mind! Still deciding what Im going to do.

On the topic of #fauxinktober and well this months contest, as in I want to draw characters better, are their any online references you have found helpful to aid in drawing them. I am currently taking posing characters, the bean shape etc... and there are two other character classes on svs but I don’t want to overwhelm myself trying to tackle and improve on them.

Thanks

@Nyrryl-Cadiz I know what You mean, inking isn't my style either and doesn't fit my portfolio, mabye I will try doing inking for inktober or doing my style with inktober promts...will think about it next week.

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@MichaelaH whatever style you choose, I know you’ll do great pieces for Inktober.

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@nasvikdraws i’m so excited for what you’ll do. Will you be continuing the Adventures of Dad-dad?

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@Coley that’s alright. Do what you see fit. I’d love to see what you’ll make for inktober.

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@TessaW I’m really happy you like #fauxInktober. I really hope you could join. It’d be nice to have a small group going here in the forums.

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@Natalie-Lundeen-0 hi! #gouachetober sounds great too!

[MOO]

I wouldn't really call what I do inking but it does involve ink. Mainly I'm outlining things in ink but nothing special about it. And, I never follow the prompts at all I do monsters usually with ink and watercolor. This year I will make monster coloring pages from kids descriptions. So far I just have 4 so, I may just work on inking for my other book project so I can get that started. I look forward to seeing the fauxinktober creations!

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen thanks! I’ll look forward to see your work too.

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

Hi guys! What are your thoughts in making sketches ahead of time for Inktober (#fauxInktober)? Your comments are highly appreciated.

[Heather Boyd]

@Nyrryl-Cadiz

I see the benefit, I just don’t have the time. I want to make it simple and fun and I think I’d over do it with prep sketches. I will also want to do the svs contest for October so yeah.

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@Heather-Boyd Lol! I definitely see your point tho. Thanks for the input.
