Graceful Stock from Senshistock. I do like the face a bit better for not cross hatching it, but will have to work on noses. Used the usual suspects: Lamy safari fountain pen, gel pen, kuru toga mechanical pencil, Pental pocket brush pen, premixed ink wash in a brush pen and my heat gun. Have finished up […]
Fat Todays theme is where I felt bad for my self imposed theme of female faces/figures, but Senshistock came to the rescue again. In terms of what I set out to do, I ended up hiding the hands, as I didn’t have time to fix them, and again with not being happy with my cross hatching. I […]
Teeming Fierce Mysterious Been busy, some where all done on the 15th, and I am not happy with them. I bashed them out in under two hours before I went to bed. So they’re very small, and none of the anatomy is particularly convincing, but they are done. I did them with lamy safari fountain […]
Shattered Stock from Robyn rose and Everythingisinstock. A very rushed one, left it drying on the backseat of my car while i went to work, and then did a bit more and drove on. Yes, the wash is still wet on the ‘finished’ one. I used what i could easily carry without having a catastrophe in my handbag. […]
Run I couldn’t resist this stock photo from Senshistock and so i put more time into getting the drawing correct than putting my own spin on it. I have no regrets. Great drawing practice. I just wish I’d spent more time on the expression…! I think i have found what i need to work on…. Materials are […]
Gigantic Stock is from Senshistock. Overall pleased with this one, couple of mistakes that are more obvious for me trying to fix them, but hey. Zeppelins! I think the scale would have been more obvious if I’d added birds eye view of a city scape or something… but not this inktober! used my pre-diluted ink washes […]
Crooked I love the concept for this one, but i failed to pull it off. I need to figure out the back lighting situation with the fire, do better with monotone fire and smoke, and avoid giving her a hatching moustashe. In the stock photo she has a crooked smile, looking up to no good and […]
Sword And what’s better than one sword? Two swords! Just a quick one as I left the house for work at 8.30am and got home at 9pm. Drawing a square to contain my drawing seems to be helping. The last few grew to A3 size. Reasonably happy with this one: found the reference photo, and […]
Long. It’s a long bow. In the physical sense, I’m sure it’s different to a longbow. (Or maybe not…? I’ve only seen the hunger games!) I really need to practice crosshatching and faces. (And feet and hands, but not this inktober!) Used Carbon Ink, my fanciest pen holder, Pental kuru toga mechanical pencil in 0.5. […]
Underwater Again, super rushed, went into heavy with the black ink (impatient) and the acrylic pen isn’t up to saving the values in my hands. Oh well. Another one down. Platinum carbon ink (amazing black undiluted – did use the ox gal in the water, don’t know if that helped), polychromos white pencil, safari lamy […]
