#Inktober2015 - the plan

I sat down at lunchtime today and tried to think about what on earth I'd draw for Inktober,  31 days in Inktober, means 31 inked pictures.
Without a theme its entirely possible I'd end up just sitting in front of my drawing pad each lunchtime, and draw nothing.
So I thought I may follow up on the idea at the beginning of my (still unfinished) book NDvsPR:

"There have been many

discussions about who would

win in a fight between

Ninjas and Pirates...

Robots and Dinosaurs...

Werewolves and Draculas?

What if the Dinosaur was a Ninja?

What if the Robot was a Pirate?"

I drafted a table that mixes up a few of these archetypes:

---

	Ninja	Dinosaur	Robot	Pirate
Ninja	XXXXXXX	XXXXXXXX	XXXXXX	XXXXXX
Dinosaur	Ninja-Dinosaur	XXXXXXXX	XXXXXX	XXXXXX
Robot	Ninja-Robot	Dinosaur-Robot	XXXXXX	XXXXXX
Pirate	Ninja-Pirate	Pirate-Dinosaur	Pirate-Robot	XXXXXX
Vampire	Ninja-Vampire	Vampire-Dinosaur	Vampire-Robot	Pirate-Vampire
Werewolf	Ninja-Werewolf	Dinosaur-Werewolf	Robot-Werewolf	Pirate-Werewolf
Zombie	Ninja-Zombie	Zombie-Dinosaur	Zombie-Robot	Zombie Pirate
Space	Space-Ninja	Space-Dinosaur	Space-Robot	Space-Pirate
Super	Super-Ninja	Super-Dinosaur	Super-Robot	Super-Pirate

---

Vampire	Werewolf	Zombie	Space	Super
XXXXX	XXXXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXXX
XXXXX	XXXXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXXX
XXXXX	XXXXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXXX
XXXXX	XXXXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXXX
XXXXX	XXXXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXXX
Vampire-Werewolf	XXXXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXXX
Zombie-Vampire	Zombie-Werewolf	XXXXX	XXXXX	XXXXXX
Space-Vampire	Space-Werewolf	Space-Zombie	XXXXX	XXXXXX
Super-Vampire	Super-Werewolf	Super-Zombie	Super-Space(r)	XXXXXX

...and Voila I have over 31 things to draw!

Inktober 2015

This year to make a change from the mad dash of doing 24HCD I thought I might try to join in #Inktober.
31 inked drawings in 31 days.

Inktober was instigated by Jake Parker in 2009  as a challenge to improve his already very refined inking skills.

The rules as with 24HCD are simple:

1. Draw something and ink it up.

2. Post it online. (I'll be posting here and on twitter)

3. Apply the hashtag  #inktober

4. Do this everyday throughout October.

I also have a vague notion that I might try and develop a story with the pictures... the joy of doing Inktober as against 24HCD is I can plan a story beforehand without breaking the rules.
This is a good thing, as the stories in my previous 24HCD efforts have been a little flimsy at times...
