I'm soooooo excited to finally start Inktober! :D Especially because otherwise, not much artsy is going on in my life... Of course I'm constantly sketching things, and also actively making and swapping ATCs, but my only "real" ongoing art project is a calendar with fantasy illustration stuff I'm planning to bring out for 2020. (No real deadline but it should go to print upcoming February at the latest, before convention season starts, otherwise promoting it isn't going to work.) The thing is, "real" illustrations take so much planning and time that I'm really looking forward to all the spontaneity and simple creative fun of fast ink sketches.

Elaborate ink work is, unfortunately, not me - I'm a beginner when it comes to pen drawing. But I'm sure it's going to be fun.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with for your Marvel & DCU bangs! I didn't get a Marvel fic in the end, all the ones I fancied got claimed, but I got a really great DCU fic that I've done one main picture for so far. I might get another something done but timings are an issue...

Sure, let's be friends! :)

And thank you! ATCs are Artist Trading Cards; basically they're miniature paintings in a certain format (2.5x3.5'' or 6.4x8.9cm), that you swap with other artists.

Yay!

ATCs sound really cool! I'd never heard of such a thing before and now kind of what to try.

Yes, ATCs are a fun hobby, I make and swap them a lot! (The only way for me to have an "art collection", I can't buy everything I like, so I trade art against art... LOL) If you ever decide to try it out, there are several online communities around that specialise on ATC swapping. (Most online groups like that have some kind of rating system, for safety, because of the whole "sending by mail" thing.)

Thank you for the info! It wouldn't have occurred to me to look online. (I say, as I am online)
