@chrisaakins Awesome idea! Nothin better than seeing other people's work to ramp up!
I've been brainstorming space kid designs for inktober. This one's unrelated to any prompts, but it spoke to me

@Braden-Hallett that's hilarious. Poor guy!

@chrisaakins great illustration for this thread!

For Inktober 2016 I illustrated a bunch of halloween characters partying in a haunted house. This year I want to take the characters and create their own scene of what they get up to either before or after the party. That's the plan!

I had successful inktobers the last two years, but am going to skip it this year as much as it saddens me. While I found the challenge to be rewarding and I grew A LOT each October, I just can’t sacrifice the time this year.
However, I instead plan on working off of @Lee-White most recent video and spend each day popping off as many thumbnails as I can for a book I’m working on. If I can manage a page a day I should have good thumbs for the entire project.

@jakecrowe the only way I can do it is to assign it to my students and do it alongside them. I call it modeling.

Here are the official prompts:

I'm super excited for Inktober this year! My shirt just came in the mail yesterday so I'm super offical now! haha My plan for this year is to design a different (cute) monster everyday following the prompts. At the end of the month, I'll have a collection to pick from to paint my son's new room with(He getting bumped up because he has a new sibling coming around the New Year!).

@jakecrowe interesting--your post gave me an idea. I'm so new at all of this that pretty much that I can get value out of any of the exercises. My Inktober last year, which was my first was hard, time-consuming and fabulous. I'm just now using a couple of the daily panels and adding to them for a 3 page comic that I'm thrilled with. I didn't post each day or may be even at all (that takes more time).
So I've been thinking this year to ink one of my drawings every day, and maybe the same drawing every day (or until I can't do that one any more and move on to a second one). Goal-inking practice, using the things I'm learning in the Inking 2.0 Class.
But your post made me think about if I could quickly INK thumbnails Kind of combine working with ink and thumbnailing. Now I could be working on control-in-inking....but I also can use practice in loosening up.
I hope you'll post all those thumbnails!

I always struggle with inktober i lobe the idea but never have any ideas and never make it past the first or second day so this year I'm am practicing and tring to get in the habit of daily inking already but this morning I thought of an idea... Puppy posetober lol we have a new puppy and he is constantly laying in crazy ways and it would help me practice form drawing and texturing
Reference to the silliness

31 drawings seems intimidating. How has anyone gotten over that mind hurdle?
I guess that’s about how many pages are in a children’s book?

Here’s some inspiration from artist Aaron Horkey. This guy is over the top awesome with ink.

@ambiirae eeeek!!!!! WHAT A CUTE PUPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What kind of dog? so cute! Reminds me of a Beauceron we had, she passed away last year at a very old age...........sorry.........bit of a dog geek here! I think your inking idea of puppy poses sounds awesome. I'm working on images now for inktober and my day for "dragon" I made a dragon and my whole family says it looks like my dog lol!!!!!
