Inktober Day 31: Award Recognition without merit becomes ritual. The system claps for itself, mistaking noise for meaning. Final #Inktober2025 piece is a toast to the illusion of fairness. Artwork by @eltischy.bsky.social and @mac-creation.bsky.social #Award #SatireArt #IndieComics

A monochrome comic illustration showing a human-like trophy resting in a dim VIP lounge while a man stands in the doorway. The scene feels weary and ironic, evoking the emptiness behind glamour and the fatigue of constant recognition.

First came the sirens. Then the silence. And in silence he starved until his soul turned skeletal. Now his bones remember what the living chose to forget. From our horror comic "The Wullewatsch" in Scope Magazine #01. Read it now on Patreon! (link in BIO) #inktober #skeletal #indiecomic #spooky

A narrow hallway bathed in pale blue light. At the end, a child’s room glows faintly in the dark. In the foreground, a tall, gaunt figure holds a stuffed bear by the arm. Across the floor, thick black liquid forms the words “Der Wullewatsch.” On a side table, war relics — an iron cross, a soldier’s portrait, boots — hint at a haunted past.

Inktober Day 27: “Onion” When fashion week meets November in Germany. Artwork by @eltischy.bsky.social #inktober #onion #zwiebellook #humor #illustration #scope

A runway model walks confidently down the catwalk wearing an absurd number of layered jackets and scarves. The expression is serious, almost regal. Above the scene, the text reads: “In Germany we call it ‘Zwiebel-Look.’” The image playfully contrasts fashion-world glamour with everyday practicality.

Day 26 of Inktober: Puzzling A calm figure sits among scattered pieces. The line between wholeness and loss starts to blur. Laura’s art often finds beauty in moments of silence and self-reflection. Artwork by @eltischy.bsky.social #Inktober2025 #Puzzling #Art #Illustration #IndieArtist

A black and white ink drawing of a humanoid figure with long flowing hair and cat-like ears, sitting cross-legged on the floor. She wears a kimono and is surrounded by puzzle pieces that form an incomplete circle. Her expression is calm but distant. Behind her are vertical bars that suggest a confined space.

Day 24 of Inktober: Rowdy 💥 Lina’s drawing proves you can be soft and still bite back. A teddy sweater, messy hair, and pure “don’t mess with me” energy. Artwork by @missmymla.bsky.social #Inktober2025 #Rowdy #Illustration #IndieArt #ScopeCollective #CharacterDesign

A black-and-white ink drawing of a child or young person with wild, spiky hair, sitting cross-legged with a defiant expression. They wear a sweatshirt with a teddy bear design and matching pajama pants covered in small bear patterns. The figure’s relaxed but confident pose and messy appearance convey a rebellious, “rowdy” attitude with a soft, humorous twist.

Inktober Day 23: Firefly ✨ A lantern built for fireflies - to rest, glow, and dream in the night. Merkenau’s piece catches the eerie calm where light feels almost alive. #Inktober2025 #Firefly #Illustration #IndieArt #ScopeCollective #AtmosphericArt

A black-and-white ink drawing of a lantern filled with softly glowing fireflies. The insects emit a dim yellow-greenish light, creating an eerie, dreamlike atmosphere. The lantern seems almost alive in the dark, serving as a gentle refuge for the fireflies. The overall mood is quiet, mysterious, and slightly haunting.

Inktober Day 22: “Button” Sometimes the hardest thing isn’t fixing a shirt, it’s holding on to what’s gone. A tender piece by Laura, stitched with love and memory. #Inktober2025 #Button #Illustration #EmotionalArt #ScopeCollective

A black-and-white ink drawing of an elderly man sitting in an armchair, carefully sewing a button onto his sweater. His expression is one of quiet concentration tinged with sadness. On the small table beside him sits a lit candle and a framed photo of a smiling woman, suggesting she may have passed away. The scene conveys love, loss, and memory through a simple, intimate act.

Inktober Day 19: “Arctic” A frozen world where survival has a price. The fish belong to nature, until someone sells them back to you. Illustration by @eltischy.bsky.social, based on a character from a future game project by our collective. #Inktober #Arctic #Artivism #Comics

Black-and-white illustration of a snowy arctic landscape. In the foreground stands a smug penguin wearing a scarf and a smart watch made of ice. Next to it is a vending machine filled with fish. A wooden sign reads “ACCESS RESTRICTED — PROPERTY OF FAKE FISH COMPANY.” Behind the sign is a fishing hole with a few fish visible under the ice.

There’s no such thing as a fair deal when wealth tilts the scales. Some buy a product, others buy the system. This one’s a collab between @mac-creation.bsky.social & @eltischy.bsky.social #inktober2025 #deal #inktoberchallenge #politicalart #satire #eattherich #comics #artivism #artistcollective

A black-and-white illustration split vertically down the middle. A shady figure in a trench coat and hat opens their coat to reveal various “deals” pinned inside. Left side (white background) shows a ballot with a check mark, house keys, an electricity meter with a price tag, and a large bottle of water with a tag. Right side (black background) shows a dangling telephone handset and a phone base with a speech bubble reading “White House, how can I help you?”, a solar panel labeled “Flat rate,” a shiny oversized key, and a faucet with flowing water and an infinity symbol above it. Header text reads “BEST PRICES (FOR MY FRIENDS).

Inktober Day 15: “Ornate” Not every drawing needs a heavy meaning. Sometimes beauty speaks softly... in lines, lace, and little details that make you linger. ✨ Artwork by @eltischy.bsky.social #inktober2025 #ornate #art #illustration #scope

Black, finely drawn lace with floral ornaments and delicate patterns stretches horizontally across a white canvas. In the center hangs a small round charm with a heart engraved on it. The image has an elegant, intricate, and decorative feel.
