Day 12, Toss Simple, but I like how some of the details turned out #inktober #inktober2026
Inktober, 12 Toss. 2026-10-12, Ink drawing of a coin being tossed into a well. The well is made of stone bricks and there is a rickety looking sign beside it that says "WISHING WELL"

Day 11, Rescue I got super discouraged trying to figure something out that I actually wanted to draw for this so I stopped for a couple of days. It still counts if the rescue is a bit late, right? #inktober #inktober2026
Inktober, 11 Rescue. 2026-10-11, Ink drawing of a hand raising from the ground. There is a lich floating in the background casting a spell.
I was late drawing this one, so I felt like it could fit the prompt.

Day 10, Mystical Favourite one I've drawn so far. I'm going to be waiting for natural daylight from now, looks a bit nicer. The lights I tried to take this with last night blew the image out pretty badly. #Inktober #inktober2026
Inktober, 10 Mystical. 2026-10-10, Ink drawing of a frog with a staff and wizard hat casting a spell on an armoured knight. The knight has a hand raised begging for mercy. Only the knights shoulders, arm and head are visible, they're hunched over in pain.
The spell has an image of testicles twisted into a pretzel.

Day 9, Ram Couldn't get an effect I liked for the wool with a pen, so I stuck a brush in some ink and messed around with that. Was a bit heavy handed in a few places and he's a little wonky, but I don't hate it #inktober #inktober2026
Inktober, 8 Ram. 2026-10-09, Ram done with ink on paper. Pen and dry inked brush were used.

Day 8, Stinky Probably the fastest I've managed to draw one of these so far, I also really like how it turned out Only used the cheap fountain pen again #Inktober #inktober2026
Inktober, 8 Stinky. 2026-10-07, Ink drawing of a vulture plucking at some carrion. There are a few flies buzzing around and a couple of flowering weeds on the ground.

Day 7, Panic Couldn't think of anything for "Panic" for days. A screaming blueberry was the first and only thing that ever popped into my head for it. #inktober #Inktober2026 With this far more simple choice I've caught back up 👍
Inktober, 7 Panic. 2026-10-07, A blueberry screaming in panic.

Day 6, Ogre The more I look the more problems I see with some of the anatomy, but ignoring that, I like how he turned out. The way his expression says, "Really? This again?" feels right. #Inktober #Inktober2026
Inktober, 6 Ogre. 2026-10-06, scuffed ink drawing of an ogre holding a sword

Day 5, Smack A bit late on this one, attempting to draw a non-human but still humanoid creature so close up when I'm so out of practice was probably a mistake. The under sketch took me so long just to get the anatomy to feel remotely correct. Get to try "Ogre" next #inktober #inktober2026
Inktober, 5. Smack. 2026-10-05, Ink drawing of a snarling goblin with a red handprint imprinted on its face.

Day 4, Cactus Bought a white pen that does absolutely nothing in my sketchbook and a cheap fountain pen that's pretty fun to use. Need practice with it #inktober #inktober2026
Inktober, 4. Cactus. 2026-10-04, Ink drawing of a Gigantender from Final Fantasy XIV in a pot.

Haven't really drawn much of anything in over a decade, finally started Inktober this year, wasn't gonna post anything public, but fuck it, why not. Days 1-3 and what I've got to work with. #inktober #inktober2026
Inktober 2026-10-01: Apple
Looong time since I picked up a pen/pencil/anything and didn't give up in 30 seconds. I may have done just that if the prompt was something more complex than apple, so I'm glad this is the year I started instead of just writing the prompt in my sketchpad. Drawing the apple itself made me want to keep going.Inktober 2026-10-02: Relic
This one is a pile of mistakes. Made me actually do some research and change my approach, so, good learning piece.Inktober 2026-10-03: Miniature
Much, much happier with this one, even if the room is a little crooked.
Since I was unhappy with day two, I watched some videos to pick up some tips and techniques. The videos made me kinda want some new liners and badly want one with white ink, maybe something to inkwash with too.
Will probably look for a white liner. Maybe if I stick with this far enough into the month I'll pick some other things up too.Mechanical pencil and pens.
The liner with painters tape is pretty dried out, used it to do some of the shading on day one but swapped to the bic partway through.
Not pictured, my dirty, old, kneadable eraser.
