#1 Dream

Pencil Sketch

Damn… running behind and have to leave for work… will try catch up later.

Concept/WIP

For me, nightmares cause you to wake up in fright… some may count this as a nightmare, but I tended to have this type of dream while waking up anyway and instead of fright, it just left me remembering the sense of discomfort and embarrassment… so for me it would count as a dream.

For the final attempt I want to exaggerate the messed up proportions I have in my dreams.

#2 Spiders

Pencil sketch

Concept

Thinking of doing something cutesy… Jumping spiders are all the rage so why not do something for people who over-actively anthropomorphize things?

[KDLynch (Kelly Lynch)]

jumping spiders are the bestest.

Thread to document my failings at attempting Inktober.

Your thread has already failed, as your inkings are not failures.

I’m know… I’m such a failure

It’s early days - lots of opportunities for failure still to come…

[KDLynch (Kelly Lynch)]

@zeroskilz i have to concur with thorn… not seeing any failings either.

#3 Path

Tried the philosophy of “illusion of detail”… the result is a bit meh.

[stray]

It gets the point across very well, so it works and so it’s good
