    Beautiful piece. I love Inktober because most of my favourite illustrators participate so we get 31 days of amazing artwork.

    I'm mainly following the official Inctober list, and my theme is an old, evil, fortuneteller and how all the different drawing are results of her trickery

    • @onebrightsheep7103

    It’s my first inktober and I’m so excited to practice and experiment with my tools! I’m using the official list mostly, but I made a list of ideas of subjects to possibly apply to the prompts when I get stuck 🤦‍♀️

  • @jerylian7711
    @jerylian7711 7 років тому +5

    I really love this one, it has complexity and story, really neat.
    I am participating in Inktober myself for the first time, no prompts or theme, just one ink picture a day is already a huge challenge I think :)

    This is really beautiful! I will also be taking part in inkktober this year. Rather than following prompts I will be drawing whatever catches my interest and completing pieces that have been hanging over me for years. My main goal is to improve my mind set and hopefully see some improvement in my art as well.

    This is my first year doing Inktober, so I'm using Jake Parker's official prompt list and pretty much every ink tool I own so I can try out new things. I'm stoked, and I'm really excited to see all of your pieces! I decided to do Inktober after seeing all of your videos from last year.

    So excited that several of the artists I follow are making videos every day, and I'm excited to participate FOR REAL this year. I'm gonna be experimenting with different kinds of inks and markers that I have and just draw cute fun stuff that I normally don't get a chance to try. I really like doing shading and stuff with ink washes so I'm excited to get to show that off

    Very creative combination of a needle and a sword, your linework is fantastic. I love the idea of a book with all your inktober 2017 pieces!
    This is my first year joining Inktober, I'm loosely following the official prompts. The main goal for me it's to improve my inking skills and my ability to come with original concepts. I'm taking a experimental route, I'll try to use ink washes, micron and a brush pen.

  • @unsupporteddevice

    Ahh this is really pretty Danica! I am also participating in Inktober for the second year. You are actually one of the artists that inspired me to do it last year, so thank you! I chose to follow a combination of the official prompts and the mossery prompts, and my illustrations are actually all part of a cohesive story as well! So excited to see the rest of your work, and good luck to anyone else who's participating!

    @stephanomalyarts2647 7 років тому

    I can't wait to see all your drawings for Inktober! This one is so lovely, but I agree about the value of the oval behind being darker. Still such a great piece. I am using a witches prompt for Inktober and using colored inks along with microns.

  • @terrymck10

    @Heartfeltword 7 років тому +5

    I'm gonna try and participate this year in Inktober. My goal is just to draw every day. No prompts/themes but I do find myself looking at Jake Parker's prompt list for ideas while I sketch up ideas.
    Good luck with the challenge! I cannot wait to hear more about this book because I will certainly get one. 💙

    @sarabalius7512 7 років тому +11

    I haven't practiced inking in a long time since I'm primarily a graphic designer and work digital, and I was pretty discouraged working on my piece this morning. Still, you really blew it out of the water, I love this piece so much. It's really got a sense of completion! You've inspired me to keep going and keep posting even if I'm not as proud

  • @NeedlessPower
    @NeedlessPower 7 років тому

    I can relate a lot about the brush pen situation. So this year when i tried my first inktober drawing (with the brush pen) it was just a complete mess. I really loved that pen when i got it a year and a half ago but now it just keeps stressing me out SO MUCH. Especially because my experience with the pen and the ink is that i leaks a lot. The Brush tip is always soaked in ink and when i start drawing i need to wipe 90 % off which just wastes so much of the ink (which is also expensive af).
    At the moment my favorite Ink Pen is definitely the Fudenosuke Tombow Calligraphy Pen. I don't draw a lot with it but it's my go to together with the Micron Pens.

    @AedraGray 7 років тому

    Really love how this one turned out. I can't wait to see the book! I'm unfortunately taking on too much this October to be able to participate in Inktober, but I'm hoping that next year I'll have the opportunity too! Your artwork has really inspired me to pick up my pencils again and give ink a try. I've always been terrified of the permanency of ink, but each of your videos shows the beauty that can come from it.

  • @Emma-pb6el
    @Emma-pb6el 7 років тому

    Yay, this is my first year! I'm actually trying to follow the prompt list,and now I see all my favorite artists aren't D: I'm a little disappointed because I wanted to see how they all interpreted the same word into their art, but this is such a wonderful piece, great job as always!

    I'm following the Characters of the Forest prompt list by dropthedrawing over on tumblr, there's a whole bunch of them.

    @Samaya 7 років тому

    Your book is going to be so beautiful. Your line work is always my favorite part of your illustrations, so I'm excited to see it! I decided to take part in inktober at the last minute, I literally had about 15 minutes before the day ended, but I got it done, lol. It's not nearly as pretty as yours, but I'm happy with it.

  • @JessePhoenix
    @JessePhoenix 7 років тому

    I just love your clean linework in general, it's absolutely gorgeous!
    And I'm also doing Inktober again this year! My goal is to get through the entire month this time around but I'll be super happy if I manage more than the 6 or 7 days I did last year. I'm going to follow Jake Parker's official prompts unless I get other ideas on the day and I'm intending to just overall be working more on my natural media skills as I've been holed up in digital art for so long. So most likely I'll end up with a range of mixed media pieces =)
