These are all so good!

[goss]

Thanks! :) I've really been enjoying doing all these studies of different textures and surfaces.

Really love the hand study, the liquid movement, and the musculature!

[goss]

Thanks so much! Glad you're enjoying all the pieces from this week. :)

I’m going to be spamming you with comments. I just discovered that DW somehow unsubscribed me from your journal so I hadn’t been seeing your Inktober posts. So annoying, and baffling. So I’m off to enjoy your art!

[goss]

Heh. That is so weird. Glad to have you back! *g*

These are all gorgeous. I legit thought Day 4 was a picture from the thumbnail.

[goss]

Thanks! I'm delighted by how realistic it looks in tiny form. ^___^

Amazing! The last two look like photos at thumbnail size.

[goss]

Thanks so much! ^___^

Oh I commented on the individual entries but meant to ask you how to line up the thumbnails so prettily. My html is very very basic and I'd love to know how you did that. (Are the thumbnails sized 50x50?) And you added a black border which makes it look like them hanging in a gallery - so nice!

[goss]

No problem, I just made a post to the community sharing the code I used. :)

I realized I didn't comment last week!
I love how you choose to work on details, close-up or textures to try and get a realistic feeling! Great job!

[goss]

Aww, thank you!

Looking back, these seem so very detailed - I have no idea where I found the time, energy or patience to complete them. Like many others at the comm have mentioned recently, we all seem to be suffering from burn out going into Inktober's 4th week... :b

Your drawings are really good! Very talented :)

[goss]

Thank you. ^____^
