Okay, I'm done.

You may have noticed that I have not uploaded any more INKtober drawings. And to tell you a secret I still have not even finished INKtober. So I haven't uploaded them all. I think all in all I did 16 drawings out of the thirty-one I should have. But by now we are almost as close to next October as we are to the last one, and I've waited this long, so I may as well wait that long again. I'm going to start just posting regular art again, and finish this INKtober next October.
Here's what I have been drawing instead of drawing what I was supposed to be drawing!




I don't even remember deciding to draw this. But apparently I did. 

All my family members are telling me this is terrifying, and in a way it is, but I have tried and tried to give her pupils and it always looks different from what I'm wanting, so I gave up. (Okay. I'm done.)
I redrew my Kylo Ren drawing because everyone said it was my best, and I have improved in my art, but everyone likes my old one better...? Go here if you want to see my first one.
Something feels a little off on this one, but I can't tell what it is. I love her eyes, though. And they even have pupils!


And there you are. Some art to pass the time as we wait for next October. *sips tea from bowl because I never got around to washing my cup*

Some More Drawings While You Wait For The Inktober Pictures That I Am Still Not Doing:


In hindsight, I'm not sure how that lid is supposed to fit on that cup, but I'm sure it will do its best.

This Rey is technically part of Inktober. Consider it a sneak peek.

Inktober 2017...?

Man, has it been a while since I last blogged! I have been drawing a good amount since then, but I never seem to remember to upload those drawings. I'll show you one drawing I have done recently, and then get on with the post...
(Used reference- I can't find the original artist.)
Anyway, about Inktober. I have been trying to do it again this year... "trying again" as in, that is all I did last year, and all I am doing this year... trying. And not doing. But, as the saying goes; "If at first you don't succeed, try, try, again." Meaning I will probably try and fail next year, too, because it's "try, try, again", not just "try again". You have to try again twice to get it to work. And I have only tried again once.


Maybe next year I should just do "Thinktober", where I have one thought every day for 31 days. But no, that sounds even harder than regular Inktober.

I have done fourteen ink drawings this year, so I am up a good cry from just the one I did last year. I have been using a Disney Challenge that I tried to do with a friend two years ago in May (as you can see, I am very good at trying to do things), but on day FOUR I somehow got mixed and did the wrong drawing... and then I never got de-mixed up again. I then tried doing two a day, and that meant I would have to decide on not just one, but two favorite Disney scenes, princesses, princes, villains, songs, or the Disney princess with the prettiest left-hand thumbnail (or something like that) and it got confusing and harder to do. Then I reached The Middle where we had to draw Actual Scenes, not just characters. And then I realized that would mean 1) Choosing a favorite scene, 2) Finding the perfect screen capture of the scene OR 2&1/2) Taking my own screen capture (The reason that's 2&1/2 instead of a 3 is that it's not a different step, just a different way of doing it). So I went to bed. And the next morning when I woke up I just decided to do one more drawing for this month, and then next month introduce a New and Very Cool trend called "Inkvember". Catchy, huh? THEN, probably in December (Inkcember? Nah. Ink-cicle? Get it? Winter, icicles...okay, well, nevermind, then.), anyway, in that month, I will upload one of the ink drawings a day, like I was supposed to this month. And didn't. Ah, well. Until then, have fun browsing the new collection of other people's Inktober drawings, that they actually remembered to put up. What a glorious sense of satisfaction with themselves they must feel.

(P.S. I just remembered I actually do have some new random art you haven't seen yet. I'll upload those between times, if you'd like. If you don't like, then I will post them anyway, because I won't know you don't like until after I've already posted them. When it will be too late.)

(P.P.S. BTW, apropos of that gif: What is Yoda's full name? Yoda Layhee Hoo.)
