Drawesome Monthly Check-In Post

Today's the last day of October, and we'd love to have you check in and chat with us. How have things been with you this past month?

Did you sign up for or take part in any fandom activities in October, or have you been working on any personal art projects? Are you currently trying to meet a deadline? Feel free to share upcoming challenges that have got you excited, any frustrations you've been experiencing, possible goals for the next month, and so on.

Inktober comes to a close today. Congrats to all who participated! We've really enjoyed the steady stream of artworks posted at the comm this month. :)

Also, for those who celebrate it, Happy Halloween!

I am in awe of everyone who did Inktober. I have 12 very sketchy sketches that are not cleaned up in any way, so no one has seen them.

Yeah, I only managed 12 myself - my energies were elsewhere, this year.
Sketchy sketches are still sketches though!

I never approached Inktober with the goal of doing 31 pieces - it's too much! This year I did 16, which is enough for me. Go you for having 12!

I didn't post them to the comm but I completed Inktober for the very first time this year! I used the Shadowscape prompts, mostly. You can see them at this tag.

Congrats on finishing!

Well, I dropped out of Inktober, but I got a couple of other art things done in October. I did a round-up to DW of AO3 posts across the past while over in my journal.
I feel a bit bleh - work's been very busy and I haven't been sleeping enough. Entirely my own fault, of course, sigh. It'll be stupidly busy until the end of Feb when I finish up my current job, so I need to look after myself better to make it through. Yeah, right.

Whoops. Somehow my comments got mixed up? Here's what I meant to say:

Looks like you've been doing plenty over the past few months. So you shouldn't worry. Sometimes real life is just like that, and self care is important!

I think it's easy to forget to look after ourselves sometimes when there's so much we want to do.

I didn't do 'proper' Inktober, but I did manage to do a handful of ink works. I*ve only posted two of them online, though:

The characters from Disenchantment

and

A drawing inspired by my cat being a creep

Heh, that cat is funny in every sense of the word! I should check out Disenchantment. :)

I didn't think I'd enjoy Disenchatment, but I ended up loving it. The three main characters were so much fun.

And this is why I ended up doing the cat drawing :D

This month I completed Inktober using both a Merlin based prompt list with a masterpost of preview images here: https://fifty-fifty.dreamwidth.org/38177.html

As well as doing a doodle-a-day page for October based on the actual inktober prompts which is here: https://fifty-fifty.dreamwidth.org/38864.html

So overall a pretty successful month for me, Inktober-wise. I'm hoping I can continue to do a few more bits of art over the next few months, but I won't beat myself up if I don't do anything more than my doodle-a-day page.

Congrats, you were super productive! I always need a bit of a break after Inktober myself, so November is the chill-out month. :-)
