Hi!
Still behind but I've given up worrying about it, even if I go into next month I'll just keep going until all 31 drawings are done!
Here's day 16's for #inktober2017 with the official prompt of "Fat"
Until next time, as always, keep creative!

#Inktober Day 15 "Mysterious"
Hi again,
Second post of the day for #inktober2017, this is day 15, with the official prompt "Mysterious".
This is a character most won't know (unless you read comics, a lot of comics...) His name is The Question and he can be found in the pages of DC Comics.
As always, until next time keep creative!

#Inktober Day 14 "Fierce"
Hey people, how goes it?!
Just finished my drawing for #inktober2017 day 14 (yep, still waaaay behind...)
I decided to print out the initial pencils and ink over them, this was an excellent idea as it freed up the worry of making mistakes and let me just enjoy playing around and trying things out.
And because of this new found freedom I decided to put the brush markers down and try out some crosshatching instead, this is now something I think I'll do a lot more often as I was pretty pleased with the look of the end result.
As always, until next time keep creative!

#Inktober Day 13 "Teeming"
Hello" *Sniff*
Came down with a cold earlier this week so have been just taking it easy and playing a lot of PS4 to help recuperate...
Day 13 of #inktober2017 had the prompt "Teeming" so I thought I'd start to get a little bit of Halloween in there, not too much, and here's the result.
All drawing and inking was done traditionally but the shadows and highlights were done in #autodesksketchbook.
As always until next time, keep creative!

#Inktober Day 12 "Shattered"
Whats up 'netters!

#Inktober Day 11 "Run"
Hi!
Day 11 of #inktober2017 done, I was pleased with the linework but the shading didn't go so well, not all that happy with this one but just gotta move on.
The official prompt was "Run"
Until next time, even if it doesn't go to plan, keep creative!

#Inktober Day 10 "Gigantic"
Good Day to You!
I took the weekend off as I needed to do some day job work, then have a day of relaxation!
I finished up day 10's #inktober2017 piece this morning, which had the official prompt "Gigantic", I will do the background for this at some point but as it would've been digitally painted whatever the case I've left it with just the inks for now.
Any pictures from this years #inktober that I add more too in the future I'll update their relevant post and add it below the original, though these won't be done for a while as I'm back to being multiple days behind again and back to playing catch up....
As always, keep creative!
*Update*
I of course immediately stuck it in PS and played about with it, didn't spend too long but the result has been added to the bottom of this post...

#Inktober Day 8 "Crooked"
What Up?
I finally decided to ink this one by hand, I had thought to do it digitally as I was a little wary of messing it up, and then I thought, you now what, this is what #inktober is about, giving things a go and trying out techniques you don't usually use.
So I gave it a go!
I did tidy it up in PS afterwards to finalise it, and I'm thinking of doing a full digital paint over in the future, but as always photos of the finished hand done art can be found on my instagram - https://www.instagram.com/gavinjjary
until next time, keep creative!
*Update*
Couldn't resist doing a little more to it, see bottom of the post...

#Inktober Day 7 "Shy"
Hi, yet again!
Make that a triple, I did a quick one for day 7's #inktober2017 pic, making him far more cartoony to save time, the prompt was "Shy".
I call him Mr. Incognito.
Until tomorrow (no way I'm doing any more today) keep creative!

#Inktober Day 6 "Sword"
Hello.... again!
Double posting today, day 6 of #inktober2017, with the official prompt being "Sword".
I went a little more comic book with this one, just because.
Next up, Day 7 and the prompt "Shy".
I have no clue as to what that one will be!

#Inktober Day 5 "Long"
Hey There!
Day 5 of #inktober2017 done, the official prompt was "Long", so here's my interpretation.
I'm going to try getting day 6 done today as well, then days 7 and 8 tomorrow, so I might have to tone down the details on a few of these so I get more done.
The main point of the challenge is to get some practice in and improve, not do amazing intricate finished pieces, so I should probably try to keep that in mind...lol
Catch ya later peeps!
And, as always, keep creative!

#Inktober Day 4 "Underwater"
Yo!
Still playing catch up so thought I'd leave this one as is rather than spend ages with the brush markers shading and texturing, I will finish it at some point but in the interest of moving along, and as it is actually finished ink wise, day 4s prompt for the #inktober2017 challenge was "Underwater", and I call this one simply "Jarvis".
until next time, keep creative!

#Inktober Day 3 "Poison"
Hey There!
Still playing catch up so I'll keep this post short to give me more time to catch up!
#inktober2017 day 3, official prompt was " Poison"
Brush pens, Winsor and Newton brush markers (Grey Tones) and a little PS to finalise.
I'm now onto doing days 4-7 sketches this morning in the hope that I can get a few of them inked tomorrow and be almost caught up!
catch you all soon, and as always, Keep creative!

#Inktober Day 2 "Divided"
Hey hey!
Still playing catch up with the #inktober fun times, I could carry on with this one for ages but thought I'd better stop and post it or I'll never get back on schedule!
Day two's official prompt was "Divided"
If anyone's interested in where #inktober comes from there's a link below to Jake Parker's site, he started it back in 2009 as a way to push himself to learn to try out a new tool and it just grew from there.

Today's piece was drawn traditionally with pencil and paper but the inking was done digitally using #SketchbookPro by Autodesk.
Until the next post, keep creative!

#Inktober Day One "Swift"
Good day!
I'm giving #inktober a go this year, I'm already a couple of days behind and playing catch up but it's all good and should be on the ball by the end of the week!
Day one
The official prompt for day one was "Swift", and although this is VERY loosely connected, I went with a Boxer, one who is "swift" ie; Nimble, quick, etc.
Not the best interpretation of the prompt but I promise I'll get better as we go....
Same brush pen used as yesterdays post, so links to that can be found there, Letraset Pro Markers used for the shading which can be found via the link below....
Letraset Pro Marker Neutral Shades
Currently sketching out day two's image, "Divided", so I'll catch you when it's done, until then, keep creative!

Back Again!
Hi Peoples of the Interwebs!
It's been a really long time since I last posted, around 7 months.
I had to concentrate on work related activities, I left my job in April and set up on my own so it's been a lot of work to get everything underway, but now things have calmed down a bit I have time to get back to some artwork!
I picked up some new pens and a Moleskin sketchbook (very nice, first time using them) a few days ago and gave them a little try out yesterday, the resulting sketch is below, inspired by a recent holiday to Mexico and one of my favorite creatures, the Turtle.
Links to the pens used are below incase anyone wants to try them out for themselves, the brush pens are excellent!
I'll be back to posting much more frequently now, so until next time, keep creative!
