A work in progress. I want to try and keep up my #inktober momentum, but do some more complex pieces featuring my original characters. #sketchbook #kuretake #illustration #comics #fantasy #bloodgutteronline https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp2Vq-0H6VB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rkztrsltgn1u

Overshot Inktober a bit. This time with Esther and Daniel from UnDivine. #inktober #inktober2018 #drawvember #drawvember2018 #undivinecomic https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpxk4fhD4w_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z2ye0ouh3w13

Today for #inktober I drew Dupree from #girlgeniuscomic #sketchbook #inktober2018 #fanart #illustration #kuretake https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpi2bRrDRZL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gjvcw03lc90y

This is supposed to be Reynir from #standstillstaysilent. The proportions are all off and I kind of hate it. Love Reynir though. He tries so hard. #fanart #inktober #inktober2018 #sketchbook #kuretake https://www.instagram.com/p/BpgMbi-DKG0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12qhsjwkeq1n6

I think I've done enough medium-obscure webcomic #fanart for #inktober that I can get away with an #undertale one without any accusations of being basic. Also I just wanted to do two characters with the same name in a row. #inktober2018 #sketchbook #kuretake #illustration https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpd1yKwnuL3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jpy4chul1us9

Today for #inktober, I drew Undine from Sleepless Domain, a magical girl comic that thinks a lot about the implications of a bunch of teenage superheroes fighting monsters. Undine is going through a bit of a hard time since her team was defeated by a mysterious girl who seems to be working with the monsters. But she's made some friends, and is starting to get back out there. #inktober2018 #sketchbook #magicalgirl #illustration #fanart https://www.instagram.com/p/BpZ5xNWHEN2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1s1uxtpeths5t

Took another picture of yesterday's #inktober because I didn't like how the picture turned out. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpZ2iurnA1c/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xhuvjk0n54z4

Today's #inktober is these three from @badmachinery's extended universe comic Giant Days. I assume they're looking at a small child holding up a possum. Daisy's like "Aah! A possum!" Esther's like "Aah! A kid!" And Susan's like "Sup?" #inktober2018 #sketchbook #fanart #scarygoround #giantdays #illustration #kuretake https://www.instagram.com/p/BpYXlRjjNza/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=u7w9rq57m4ho

I missed a couple days of #inktober, but I'm not going to try and make them up, that way leads madness. Also, my trusty Kuretake brush pen went and ran out of juice on me, and I've misplaced the refills, so this one was done with my much less trusty Pentel brush pen, which is nice and smooth, but rubbish for fine lines. This is zombie apocalypse survivor Lizzie Cooper from the excellent webcomic Dead Winter. #inktober2018 #pentelbrushpen #sketchbook #illustration https://www.instagram.com/p/BpVi3TEjQDi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=162savacfd0tt

Did this one early because I was tired of posting after midnight. These are Loup and Antimony from Gunnerkrigg Court. Annie is from the court, which represents everything humanity understands, and she's a spirit medium, in this context, functionally an ambassador to the forest, which represents everything humanity doesn't understand. Loup is an all-powerful wolf with a coyote stuck in his throat. #gunnerkriggcourt #inktober #inktober2018 #sketchbook #kuretake #illustration #fanart https://www.instagram.com/p/BpNeTbSjmpM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8dbod237zuhw

For today's #inktober I did the cast of Monstruous, a beautiful little game in the vein of EYEMAZE's GROW series. For those who didn't spend their mid 00s playing flash puzzle games, Monstruous presents the player with a goal (kill the monster) and a series of actions. (from "call down an asteroid" to "drink coffee") each action can change the effect of future actions, so the challenge is figuring out the correct order. The whole thing is delightfully animated, and the characters struck a chord with me. #inktober2018 #fanart #sketchbook #illustration #kuretake #micron https://www.instagram.com/p/BpL8Pc4DZxE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18heku1szbzl2
