      This is my first time entering one of the critique arena challenges, I'm super excited!
      So here's Millie, my Inktober character!✨ I won't be able to do every day of Inktober, but I'll do as many prompts as I can:) Hope you like her!

        @Braden-Hallett I’ve been thinking of doing the prompts even though I’m not currently subscribed. GREAT character here! πŸ‘

          @Jeremiahbrown I love the texture the ink gives your character. Good luck in the arena!

              OMG..Guys.. I've just noticed, that in a work I have submitted on the sitting pose there are no Horns 🀦 It seems like the layer was OFF and i didn't notice it.. so I have changed it and submitted the second time with the same character but this time with horns. Do you think it will be valid?😒

                @Georgios-Christopoulos Thanks so much and it's great to see you back in the forums! Edward and Ron are wonderful characters!
                @juliemillardart Thank you☺ !
                @Braden-Hallett It looks terrible as usual Braden but I'm sure that if you work hard enough eventually you'll crack the top 16 πŸ˜„ (It looks really wonderful, such a professional looking piece).
                @K-Flagg DYNAMITE! Great detail, nice varied line thicknesses and uses... a master example of the "Ink" part of Inktober. Lovely stuff!

                  Long time no see ! I hardly made it this month, but I couldn't miss the opportunity to give to my mascot some more story :). Hope you'll like it.

                            @Koaila-art I noticed after I submitted one of my characters that the eye and the X on the skull design on the pirates hat are reversed in one of the poses. I just left it. I am sure they will figure it out and use the new one you submitted.

                                  My submission is of Oscar the orangutang.
                                  He is confident, joyful and just happy to be alive.
                                  His dad sells bannanas as a banana vendor at the local stadium and Oscar loves banana splits!!!!jonathansolomon-september2021.jpg

                                      Well, I ended up doing this in a real hurry this evening and it is waaaaaaay past my bedtime but after spending time early on in the month doing the close up of the face I really wanted to β€œship” it even if I would have liked to spend more time on it!
