Warning! It's October and that means...Inktober!

[amberdreams]

Don't worry I probably won't post every day, especially while I'm away in Venice and Manchester, but today being Day 1, it's getting it's own post.
Herewith may I present a Pumpkin headed witch, mixing poisonous potions in her potion bottles.

I sketched lightly in HB pencil then inked with a Tombow calligraphy pen. The pic is 4"x3" because I thought this year I'd try and keep them small.

I couldn't decide which prompt to go with from the four prompt lists I'd found, so this is actually all four in one picture! LOL
The official Inktober prompt was poisonous, the drawesome  one was potions and bottles, #mabsdrawlloweenclub was Witch, while #drawtober2018 provided the pumpkin head.

Haha kudos to working all four promptsinto one piece! I really like the fun but scary vibe this has. She is so gleeful! Rowena approves.

[amberdreams]

Heh heh how do you know that isn't Rowena under the pumpkin??? *grin*

[mekare]

You are quite right of course. It would be perfectly in character for her :-)

I love this! :) Such a nice idea to combine these prompts.

[amberdreams]

Thanks! Yes, they went together rather well today - I doubt other days will be so compatible!

[goss]

Hee! I love the creativity that came out of combining all those prompts. Kinda like mixing up a potion! *g*

[amberdreams]

Ha ha I know, right? I doubt it will fall so nicely on other days though... :D

Aww, that's adorable! I love the way you combined the prompts, and the balance of white/black is really great.

Lovely, and great movement in it. I like her off the shoulder gown!

question. Where do you get the prompts for Inktober? Or do you do what you want?

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

There are lots of different places with prompts (or yep, you can do your own).
I'm in a little drawing community on DW which have their own list here or...

Cool! Thanks!

Sorry I linked to last year's for Mabs and now the correct link is all weird. It should be this one.

This is truly fabulous! I can’t believe it’s October already.

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Me neither - and thank you! It was a fun one to do!

A perfect inkober flavour, with so many details too!!!

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Details aren't usually my forte so yay!

[finchandsparrow.livejournal.com]

This is just fabulous! Love the style of it!

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Thankee!

Wonderful work! I love this. I'm mostly posting on my Instagram for this event. I never thought to check out my LJ f-list for other Inktober/Drawlloween peeps.

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Oh what's your instagram handle? I love seeing what other people are coming up with.

I'm posting all over the place LOL.
