It’s the 8th year in a row I’m participating in Inktober. The rules are simple: A different prompt every day. Use ink. Enjoy. Learn new techniques, or not.
Some choose to not use the prompt list, or create their own, or follow a different list. I prefer to stick to those proposed by Inktober creator Jake Parker, because I find it easier, even though some prompts are less inspiring than others!
Day 15: “dagger”
My least favourite thus far. This is Ezio from the video game Assassin’s Creed. It looked much better in the pencil sketch I did before applying the ink. I used a light grey Kuretake BrushWriter, a Sakura micron 003 black pen and Pentel black ink Brushpen.
Day 16: “angel”
Another tribute to Moebius. This is a reproduction of one of his illustrations of Dante’s paradise. I used the Sakura Micron 003 black fineliner and the Kuretake light grey BrushWriter.
Day 17: “demon”
Another tribute to Moebius. This is a reproduction of another of his illustrations of Dante’s paradise. I used the Sakura Micron 003 black fineliner and the Kuretake light grey BrushWriter.
Day 18: “saddle”
Third tribute to Moebius in a row! Again I used the micron 003 black fineliner, Kuretake light grey BrushWriter, and a water brush pen to lighten further the light grey ink.
Day 19: “plump”
Ukiyo-e vibes! I used again the same light grey Kuretake BrushWriter, a Sakura micron 003 black fineliner, and Pentel grey ink Brushpen. For the highlights I used a white ink Kuretake brushwriter but it turned the grey ink into an unexpected bluish hue.
Day 20: “frost”
Two rows of frozen trees on the side of a snowy road. I used the Sakura Micron 003 black fineliner.
Day 21: “chains”
Chain links. I used my Kuretake light grey BrushWriter and water brush pen for the gradient of the background and some areas of the links, and the grey and black Pentel Brushpens for the links.
