Inktober is over and done!!

I must say, this was the best so far.
I went for the official prompt list.

Had lot of ideas for most of the prompts, and while some were narrowing down my concepts, others made me come up with pretty interesting concepts.
Also went the digital way, because that was the domain I wanted to get better at, since it s my main tool when working.
Speed was a big big thing that I wanted to improve.

Tried so many new stuff that otherwise someone d have to commission me to do them(ehem, comfort zone) and had real fun overall.

How did your inktober go?What will you do next??

While going through Inktober memories, I thought that why not share something with you, though it's too late! It's really a very simple art from my Inktober collection, made with Bianyo Watercolor Marker set. 148664298_127266332609699_5026506258751481220_n-2.jpg

DAY 20: Chef
We used to play this mario game where you had to flip and catch food until it was cooked. I was addicted XD

DAY 21: Sleep
Classic Alice in Wonderland. Honestly never been a fan of the story (too nonsensical even for my 8 year old brain 😂) but it fit the brief 😝

DAY 22: Rip
We used to play a game with my dad called “Westling in Manila” so I wanted to shoe horn muscles somewhere :)) I didn’t feel like drawing wrestling costumes though so I went with Popeyes. We used to watch this A LOT 😂

Congrats to everyone for finishing/ doing Inktober! I might continue this until 31 drawings. It would be a waste to quit after going 80% with it.

Will continue to post my progress, will definitely need help with the writing portion, so hope you guys don’t mind.

Thanks so much guys! Pointing out the more 3D elements vs flat was something I couldn’t pinpoint but was struggling with. And concept/story has been my biggest struggle. But it’s good to know the other elements I have been focusing on (composition, value and rendering) are working.

Watching everyone else’s critiques was helpful too.

I definitely hope to see more of this style of critique if y’all have the time for them 😄

@Georgios-Christopoulos I agree that I like the composition of the second one better. As for readability, I think the line breaks do affect how people read it but it this case it just seems like the "pauses" make it more dramatic. So I don't feel like it takes away from the meaning. It just forces the reader to kind of feel that "slow-mo" feeling in the middle of the action scene which I think is the point

Prompt: Outpost

Here are the images I did for week 2. I am super excited to get all of them done and lay them all out at once.

This is my fourth year doing this and I really had a lot of fun after not being sure that I wanted to do this anymore after last year. Getting ten days ahead of the deadline and switching to a paintbrush and ink pot was a game changer. I fell back in love with a paintbrush after switching to digital years ago. I think you really have to do this for yourself and forget what happens after posting on social media. Do this for yourself as an artist, it really helps you to grow.
