Made it!

My theme for this year is all about Blizzard and their characters in more natural settings, I think its going to lead to some nice scenes

I love this. What brand and type of pen(s) or brushes are you using?

Also, Day 2:

Thank you! Just basic Microns for this one. Dont worry abut the tools too much, basic stuff gets you pretty far

This has something that reminds me of the brazilian "president"

Day 2 - Root from Person of Interest

I guess I'll take this theme of TV show characters and run with it for this year...

Day 1

 

[Evilisk]

Day 1

Day 2

I'm bothered that my Day 1 picture, which I did in the middle of the night while all sleepy and tired, turned out better than my Day 2 picture, which was done when I was fully rested :/

Day 2. My most successful houseplants. If Inktober teaches me nothing else, at least I'll probably learn to clean up paper textures properly.

 

[DM_Uselink]

Love it. Already in a Halloween-y mood.

Thanks! More spoopy stuff to come hopefully!

wow i blow at this. oh well. day 1

Looks pretty good to me! I can only imagine things get better from here.

For day 2, I drew El Chamuco or "The Devil" I believe we have several versions for the devil (which I will probably draw).
Apparently it is also a dog breed in Mexico, but I'm going with what I know!

I never saw a visual representation of El Chamuco when I was a kid, so I always pictured him very vaguely. If I was a kid now, I'd probably draw him something like this..

It was pretty much considered the boogie man to us at home, so I drew him coming into a kid's room at night.

I just realized all these ghosts/monsters were used to keep kids from behaving badly. "if you don't behave El Chamuco is gonna come for you!"

Their site is pretty awful to use, but it's possible! I got a bunch from them a few weeks ago, been trying to find places to use them.

The #L stuff (Like 60L, 50L, 32.5L) denote how many lines per inch there are of dots, thus how big the dots will be. The more lines, the smaller the dots. The 10%, 20%, etc. is for how dark the tone is (like 10% grey). They have some cool texture ones, gradient ones, and some awful looking ones too.

Or you could be smart and just use Photoshop or Manga Studio for them and have the most utmost control of the halftone process. It's up to you!

I'm just starting off easy :\

Day 2, bonus points if you know who it is

 

[Mailbox]

Made this in an hour. Unfortunately I have exam prep and an assignment taking up all my time right now, so nothing crazy elaborate or original from me just yet, sorry. Also hope you don't mind that I added a bit of colour

edit: sorry for the crazy high resolution. I'm a bit too lazy to actually shrink it down, but yeah :S

 

[LegendX48]

Dat Deadpool, dat Velma, so much good stuff and it's so early in.

Anywho, no pencil underdrawing, just went straight in with a calligraphy pen, used some cheap, old brushes I had laying around and then kinda got carried away with my Prismacolor markers:

 

[Servbot24]

Here's my "Day 1" - gotta catch up already :|

 

[YesNOnoNOYes]

catching up, catching up~

day 1 and 2 and 3~ ... i love big, flowy dresses and blunt instruments, so i just mush those things up into the pics :>

and some parts remained in pencil because i added those elements after i finished inking them and i dont feel like going back into them

everyone is drawing so well *____*

olly, i love your pic <3 cant wait to see more from you <3

arex and DM_uselink, really cool stuff omg !

but yes, everyone's so very good \o/ keep them coming, y'all

 

[Raging Spaniard]

Everyone is doing great, well done! Dont be afraid to experiment with line widths and spotted blacks.

Man, Timo, I used to be the master of zip tones in college, lol. I dont miss those days.

 

[Jhoan]

Day 2: I was experiencing an artist block and talking it out with my brother on what to draw next since I had several ideas in my head. When I mentioned the poison chihuahua from God Hand, he suggested that it should be drinking a slurpee hence the drawing of the day. God Hand is one of my favorite beat em up games so I suppose this continues a line of my favorite things.

I feel like adding some color in to imply a ground to finish it out but I'm scared it might ruin it. My version of the poison chihuahua is more mangy/realistic since I added whiskers and fur textures.

 

[Arex]

good stuff all
here's my 4th one; will probably try another 1 or 2 environments before switching to characters or something else :d

Servbot24, I'm really loving your plant puppies.

Day 3: Shoes, and really noticeable mistakes! Wow!

Might be time to head outside the apartment for more interesting subjects.

 

[LegendX48]

Everybody too good, drawing skills to strong @_@

One day I shall unlock the secrets of good inking! Until then, I'm just gonna keep fudging about with some calligraphy pens and watercolor brushes.

Just like my pic for day 2, no pencil anything, jumped straight in with my pen.

Thanks! Totally agree. ArtGaf is killing it! I like your use of texture in your work. Keep it up!

Day 3!

That looks sweet!

Oh, and Timo needs to do a gumroad tutorial on how to become an ink master.

For day 3 I drew Duendes, or as I imagined them to represent gnomes/dwarfs/goblins ect!
My grandma use to creep me out with her stories about the duendes trying to lure the kids
into the forest.
