Marco's inktober 2023 dump

current

This year I don’t have a plan on inktober; it seems silly not to use it for something constructive, but it lurked on me unaware, maybe I’ll figure it, maybe not. Not likely to follow the prompts though.

The thing is, I suck at inking traditionally; never could manage the discipline needed. But it still feels more organic than when I do it digital, and takes less time, even if there is sadly no undo. Maybe I’ll use this month to find what kind of lineart suits me well with a pentel brush. For sure it’s not large sharpies, and I currently don’t have a nib that I like :confused:

Day 05

Btw, those curtains are crap.
I’m afraid that soon I’ll have to resign to wear eyeglasses, as I can’t focus when I draw up close.

No, just simple bad posture. There are way around that, I just have to remind myself to use them…
