That's right. It's that time of the year. Challenge is to make one drawing a day for October based on the prompts in the image. Inktober is traditionally meant to practice your inking skills, but don't let that stop you from doing something else. Digital art, rough sketches, anything else is all fine. As long as you draw something. Join us here by posting every day! It's a nice way to make sure you stick to the challenge, and you can always asks us to bully you give you constructive feedback. Finally, don't worry about missing a day. Try to keep to the challenge, but it's much better to miss a day and continue than to miss one and give. Again, Just Draw. Good Luck!

I want to participate too! I will probably miss a few days though.

I tried to make him looks as crystal-y and healer-y as possible without going overboard. Right now I am still going through perspective exercises in Nordling's book, and began to enjoy drawing architecture and interiors. To the point that this is the first humanoid figure I drew in weeks.

>>4568 Not quite sure how to do lights and shadows yet, but the contours were already difficult enough. Should have made more time to learn during the weekend. Fun fact: Knots are not knots >>4572 I think there's technically a lot of things that could count as a celtic knot: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celtic_knot But you want the crossing of over and under to both alternate and not be a twist, meaning that the next "crossing" you get following the line isn't the previous crossing from the other side. Also, https://yewtu.be/watch?v=52kRk3vPJWQ

>>4665 Looks pretty okay other than you not realizing that the curves of the roof meet at a straight line from each other. If you think about where the corners would meet when the roof is straight, it should help with hanging the curves when it's in perspective. As is the vanishing parts for the tile roof and the wooden rectangles at the bottom don't line up.

I cave, I have done one (1) image, simply so I can say I participated. Still not that comfortable using brushes and a larger canvas, a lot more used to sharper, smaller stuff in paint. Also a colored option for the Halloween feel. Originally I was going to have a hand behind the dice throwing them, but I suck at drawing hands and didn't have the time. Also the single die facing was going to be a skull, but it looked like shit so I just did a black and white pattern similar to a skull and crossbones instead. Also the circles aren't very uniform because I rushed it.

>>4907 Honestly drawing every day wasn't that much of a change of pace, since that's how I've practiced since I started in early July. The prompts however let me get out of my comfort zone in terms of what I was drawing (besides shit where I was really lost). I've wanted to stop drawing everyday before inktober though, so I'm going to need to find a new way to practice. I have better idea of what I suck at kinda everything, but I think I'll start with perspective on rigid structures and gesture drawing so hopefully I can do more constructive practice after a break. Glad I created the thread and I'll see you all next inktober.
>>4946 >>4945 >>4943 >>4917 Congrats for making it until the end!
Inktober is five days away. Is anyone planing to do it this year?
>>6399 Yeah, but I was actually planning to make the new thread on artgain this year. Also planning to shill on some draw threads either here or on webring boards.
>>6401 Thanks, I will post in the thread wherever it is.
>>6405 Made it a bit latter than I would've liked, but it's here: https://board.artga.in/egaku/res/6790.html
Inktober is racist and if you participate then your racist and so is your mom.
