Admin Post: Upcoming Challenge #9: Inktober

[goss]

Our next drawing challenge will be a month-long activity:

What is Inktober?

Inktober is a drawing challenge that has grown in popularity in the last few years. Participants attempt to create ink drawings every day, from October 1st to 31st, and post them online on social media - so, 31 drawings in 31 days.

We think it would be a wonderful opportunity for drawesome members to attempt this challenge over the next four weeks. We can motivate and cheer each other on! *\o/*

Some Guidelines:

• Frequency - A drawing can be created either daily, every few days, or weekly over the course of October. Go at whatever pace suits you best.
  
  
• Medium - Drawings should be done in ink, however pencils can be used first. Ink can be applied with a pen, marker or paintbrush.
  
  
• Prompts - The official Inktober list of prompts for this year is posted here: ( Inktober Prompt List 2017 )
  
  
  However, you are not restricted by it. You can use any other Prompt List that you wish (inktoberprompts, Other Inktober Lists), or create drawings randomly without using any particular list.
  
  
• Posting - Members can share their Inktober drawings with the community on a weekly basis. :)

Do Digital drawings count?

Yes. While attempting ink drawing by hand for this month's challenge at drawesome is strongly encouraged, it is not mandatory. So using the digital pen tool to create a visual effect similar to that of a traditional ink pen would be fine.

Not participating in Inktober?

No problem! We have 8 other on-going Drawing Challenges, if any suit your fancy.

Either way, we're looking forward to being inspired and stretching our skills next month! :D
