Inktober 2016! [COMPLETED!]

why is there an arm coming out of the sewer? D:

Because the other experiments weren't quite as lucky.

 

 

Damn it, I'm already losing steam. Doing something daily just isn't my thing. Well, here we go.
 
Day 8: Spice

Spoiler

FUCK

I'm not sure if I'm entirely happy with this; it just feels rushed for some reason. But oh well; some daily pictures will turn out that way, I guess.
It's also the first time I try out a weeb expression like that... I really don't do those normally. Boo hoo hoo, my integrity...

 

Title of this is perfect because that's pretty much the only thing that goes through your head when this happens.

 

Aw, god, and now that I'm remembering it, this has happened to me with honey, too, as well as salt. My tea was too sweet and my counter very sticky...

Day 10: Underwater

 

This started off as a joke, but it turned out kinda serious?

Day 11: Ghost

 

Ended up being less ghost-y and more undertaker-y, but I like how my textures came out. ewe

Man, both your color images and your lineart images are really nice. Forgive me for fuming with envy for a little bit.
 
Day 10: Underwater

The "emerging from underwater" effect apparently isn't really my forte, yet. But perhaps you can tell what it's supposed to depict, anyway. ^^

And then there's these guys.
Day 11: Ghost

Is it masks, or their real heads? Are they jogging or is it a real life-and-death situation? Why are their feet so weird? The questions, the questions.

Day 12: Fungus

Your underwater one is really clever. Totally reminds me of a Gary Larson comic.

 

Also, I like that 'underwater' made both of us draw people in near-death scenarios. Just goes to show that the ocean is fucking terrifying.

I dont get the underwater one robbu

I dont get the underwater one robbu

You know that thing where mafia people kill someone by tying a rock to their foot and toss them into a river to 'sleep with the fishes', so that their bodies don't get found?

 

Well this is supposed to be the mermaid equivalent.

 

They tied balloons around his tail and so that it'll drag him above water where he'll suffocate to death, I.E, 'sleep with the birds' - and the other mermaids will never find his body since it's on the surface where they dare not tread. Until of course the balloons pop or the helium runs out and the body crashes back into the water, but whatever.

i meant the underwater one from Horn, i got yours

I dont get the underwater one robbu

Ya; it's a creature from underwater that's reaching up to snag the fisherman on the island. The "arm" is the only thing above water, while the rest of the figure is still submerged and is supposed to be fuzzy and blend into the water. That's what I meant when I said I couldn't really get it right; I'm not sure how to make a better illusion of a water surface...

But, oh well.
 
Day 12: Fungus

Monster design shamelessly stolen inspired by Dark Souls. Hey, I drew it from memory instead of a reference picture, so I'm sure it has some of my personal touch on it.

Day 13: Wind

Holy crap, a normal picture. D: I nearly scrapped this picture twice; first when I messed up her mouth (which I stealthily covered up with a hair strand) and second when the hair/shirt/book almost blended together because they were all so dark. But I've decided - I'll stand by my mistakes. Whatever comes down on the paper, intended or unintended, I'll put up as my daily submission, even if I can't repair it.

Damn right. I showed it to Nev and he reacted the same way; swimming in large bodies of water is really damn creepy when you can only see a meter below you and you don't know how much deeper it goes on for >_>

I actually think that's one of the best parts about Inktober, being like 'I don't like how this turned out, but fuck it I don't have time.' I'm basically forced to be less picky.

Day 13: Wind

 

IDK why, but the marker bits scanned really dark. So the sky looks so much backer than intended.

Day 14: Rooftops

 

Auuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I totally screwed up the white bits. Now the whole drawing looks so messy :T

Day 15: Potager

 

Totally ran outta time, so I couldn't watercolour the whole thing.

 

All the plants are based on real edible stuffs, mostly from Australia.

Day 16: New Magic

 

This picture made me remember why I don't use my markers very often;

 

Half of them are bone dry/need new nibs, :T

So I was on a boat trip this weekend, and as a result I'm super-behind. I will attempt to do some catching up, but if not, I've still appreciated this immensely, as far as I got; I don't think I've ever churned out so many pictures in such a short time.

Your potager picture is really nice, I gotta say. I had to look the word up before I could attempt it, lol >_>

Day 17: Cozy

 

This inktober was done with no ink. I'm such a rebel.

Your potager picture is really nice, I gotta say. I had to look the word up before I could attempt it, lol >_>

 

Probably cuz it's a french thing, haha. Some of the rare stuff that stuck in my brain from childhood, other than basic colours and some foodstuffs.

 

maman, can I have a slice of pamplemousse with my omelette du fromage?

Day 18: Moths

reminds me of the green mile, which i saw for the first time yesterday xD

Day 19: Pottery

reminds me of the green mile, which i saw for the first time yesterday xD

I actually have no idea what the Green Mile is.
