      I’m definitely doing it!

      One thing I’m gonna try this year is to use September to plan some. I’ll do some sketches or layouts, so that all I really have to do is sit down and ink once October comes around.

        Yay, Inktober! Last year was the first time I completed all 31 drawings. I made a book out of it. I’m still figuring out my approach to this year’s prompts.

          I'm planning to. The list seems really interesting. September is a really hectic month though, I can't prepare like I would have wanted. But yeah, definitely attempting it.

            I’d really love to but I’m reviewing for our board exam. I have literally no time. Lol

              I'd love to do it but will have to see if I have enough time. Otherwise I might just do it on a weekly basis or something like that. Last time I did a monthly challenge I ended up being way too ambitious and it was just too stressful

                  I am planning on it, though I also have a calendar project that might eat up my drawing time. We will see. The first Inktober I did (2 years back) inspired me to get back into drawing and illustration, (after a decade of neglect) so I highly recommended it to anyone!

                    @carriecopa Last year I did a Tarot cart deck and went as far as drawing them all out before hand so that all I needed to do was ink them each day. It worked great!

                      Definitely. I did it last year and it was a great experience. I was exhausted by the end of the month but it totally worth it.

                          I'm starting to get excited about inktober again. I loved doing last year, though I jumped around like crazy. This year I'd like to keep to a pun theme. All I need to do is ask a bunch of dads what I should draw. Lol. Anyone have any ideas? What I've thought of so far : Cactipus (octopus cactus cross) Poultrygeist (a chicken ghost). Aaaaaand... that's all I've got so far. Hahaha

                            I'm in 🙂 it'll be my first time doing a challenge. I've always loved watching other people's drawings unfold

                                Yes! but I really need to focus on completed simple works so I can post everyday. Can we make a board on here for everyone who will participate? As well as the rules and the prompts each day?

                                  That's my intention! Last year I did all my drawings 4 x 6", which made it much more manageable for me. Can't wait to see everyone's work!

                                      I’m in this year. I’ve started it for a couple of years and never got through the month but this year I am going to. I AM!

                                        Yep. I'm aiming to but damn is it intimidating. I don't usually draw on paper anymore after moving to digital so rusty doesn't even cover it. Hopefully I'll make the full month before my pride is crushed. 😛

                                          Spending these next few weeks doing the inking practice exercises in Jake's "how to Ink" video trying to limber up. 🙂

                                            I'm going to go for it, I've already tried brainstorming for it. Thought I'm probably not going to agonize over it as much as I do other pieces. Gonna try and keep it fun.
