Hey guys! Inktober challenge starting tomorrow. Get those brushes / pens / whatever out, get messy and join in! It's a great challenge to get a fast boost in skill with those tools (check last years thread for all the fun we had: http://crimsondaggers.com/forum/thread-5430.html )
Lodratio Welcome man! Keep doodling, looking good Foxflake Awesome stuff, ink & water? What kind of paper you use with that? Mine was brush for the outlines and pen for the hatching. Too scary to try and hatch with brush though the pro's do it like that. Lurch I like the character on the hut, how you feathered out of the shadows, nice transition. JJ Hey dude! Wicked alien. You just went for that freehand? Sometimes the best stuff comes out unplanned like that. Vlada Looking forward to more scary stuff! Punk cat Love the hat on that guy, can imagine him in the east end of London selling carrots. Smrrr Welcome to the party : ) you're drawing is dynamic and action packed as ever!
I'm really stoked so many people joining in!
Mine for today: I saw some girls doing cartwheels in the park and it looked cool to draw. This is first panel in a kishoutenketsu (4 panel story without conflict).
I could've done more with line weight and overlap to make it read better but I was too scared to do anymore. It was pretty intense inking that <_>
Man, having lots of people participate in this kind of thing is pretty amazing.
I like how clean everyones linework is. Mine feels super rough by comparison.
Foxflake: That's a really nice effect.
Jyonny: I think it reads well enough, and working primarily with just one lineweight gives everything a unified feel.
I was just thinking it would have been cool to have a theme like some of you have, or maybe spend the month drawing things that would be part of a bigger piece that spanned the last few days.
If only I had the foresight, and the skills! hahaha!
I might try and keep mine vaguely halloween spooky, maybe cliche horror film elements or something like that, we'll see how my attention span holds up.
here's mine for today, tried to go with horror film weapons, doesn't look like much but took me aaaages!
@Jyonny, this is adorable!! I really want to see the rest of them and panels are a really great idea. More spooky stuff coming c:
@Lodratio, messy is good sometimes -- your brushwork is pretty slick, the tones are lovely. I especially like the character on the bottom left, I want to know his story!
@Lurch, these look like flash tattoos! I love them, please make more!
So wowed by what everyone is doing, and by the fact everyone has a different inking style.. I've been studying inking for a while now and it's only seeing it like this it sort of clicks how many ways there are to express it.
Day 3 Cerberus , kinda wonky because I’m babying my sore arm ;-;
