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...

I've just realised the annual challenge that is 24Hr Comic Day is fast approaching.

This year the challenge will take place on Saturday 4th October, and I'll be making the attempt to devise, pencil, ink and upload a 24 page comic in 24 hours.
There are plenty of places running the event this year, but I prefer some home comforts, and will be working in my cellar... or my allotment shed if the weather is good.
Sign up for online participation like I'm doing is through the webform here

Last year I failed, and only managed to ink up 8 pages of a "Hellboy" short...
This year... who knows.
