Another cheery subject for Inktober Day 9 - the theme was broken. So here's a fallen angel - he can be whomever you want. Lucifer, Castiel, Gadreel...

inktober day 9 broken

And we have been sorting through my mother-in-law's collections of stuff, and found some odd things that either belonged to me or I'd given to her at some point in the distant past. Including this biro sketch I did way back in 1989, when we took Paul's family to Wales. This was the sitting room of the cottage we rented, somewhere near Lake Bala. I didn't remember drawing it, but I do remember how Paul, his Dad and his brother Tony all kept banging their heads on the low beams!

Ooh, those feathers are spectacular! The broken bits with the dripping blood are simply painful to look at. Great inking!

How fun to have a sketch as a memory of a familytrip. It looks really 'pittoresk' *checks dictionary* picturesque:)

So is pittoresk Dutch for picturesque?

Yep, that's what I learned today! I like the English better, we took out a lot of letters;)

You are coming up wth some fantastic Inktobers here!! That is so gorgeous (and sad and painful, but ya know...) The cottgae is amazing, the textures and detail. I feel like I could pick up the plates on the wall!

Aw thanks! It's a challenge coming up with an idea while there's still enough daylight to draw!

That's - painful to look at. The broken wing, it's brutal. Well done, but brutal.

Very pretty. But ouch.

That sketch is very pretty, and a pretty fun to have, I imagine.

it was interesting to see it again but I don't know what I'm going to do with it - it's just on a really thin sheet of lined notebook paper! I guess I'll have to file it away and someone will bin it when I die. LOL

Oh, man. That looks painful. Awesome, but painful.

These prompts are all very sad. Where are the happy ones??

It's the dark SPN route I'm taking - maybe I wil find some fun in the rest of the month's prompts! LOL

Mmmm, I like how genuinely painful that looks, with the crack in the flesh the damaged wing comes out of, and the way the detaching feathers are breaking the frame.
