@ajillustrates what a difference moving a shoe does! The suspense and tension is way up the scale now!

I've been mostly focused on CBPro the last couple weeks, but I was able to grab a few hours this weekend to finish the inking of the boar.

@ajillustrates I am LOVING your linework! It really does look like you did it with the Pentel pocket brush as you mentioned earlier! Good luck with CBPro, but I do hope to see more of this illustration! It's awesome

Finally able to hack through work and life and get back to this. The Dark Scout has taken shape! He was incredibly fun to draw, mixing axolotl with dragon with corrupt prison guard.

I’ve completed the digital ink for my Land of the Dead piece with Quentin, our hero searching for his risen and abducted family with the help of Barnabas, a pessimistic raven who traded his sight for the ability to see visions of the future. I’m really loving coming up with the story behind these characters while drawing. Now I can move on to colors, freeing up drawing time for Inktober.

This is coming out really good. The boy is getting a little lost because of the detail in his coat and the detail in the rocks. I think if you make the rock smoother, or the coat have less detail it will really make him stand out. This could be completely irrelevant though if you plan to paint the coat a bright color.

@jenithornhill Good words of caution. I'm planning on having him stand out through color and contrast, but if he needs an extra nudge, I'll dial back some of the surrounding texture. Thanks!
