Inktober 2018 : Day 1 - Fountain Pentel When Nettle loses her temper at school, the sports field is the biggest casualty. It’s finally time for Inktober, my favourite art challenge of the year! I didn’t have access to my scanner for the first three days, but I was doing the drawings. This year I wanted to try to use some of my less cooperative pens, so this was done with my Fountain Pentel, a bizarre soft nib pen that isn’t a brush but sort of acts like one. I think it’s designed for writing kanji? It splatters a lot when I use it, but it also makes some really nice, scrappy sorts of lines. I think if I keep practicing I’ll be able to do something really good with it.
Inktober 2018 : Day 12 - fountain pentel and felt tip pen Given how often I draw it you could be forgiven for thinking that Franz spends most of his life maiming people with his bare hands, but I’m actually drawing the same scene over and over. I think I’m starting to get the hang of the fountain pentel, which I have affectionately nicknamed ‘the splatter pen’. There’s something nice about the scrappy lines it makes.
Inktober 2018 : Day 17 - fountain pentel Ely looks quite different with and without her glamour. Another outing for the splatter pen! I’m still learning how to handle shading with this one. I’ll do a matching picture of Trispin later.
Inktober 2018 : Day 19 - fountain pentel Here’s that matching picture I promised! Trispin’s glamour mostly just makes him look cleaner, but it does remove his freckles. Two supposedly-unrelated pupils with the same unnatural freckles at the same small school would probably arouse suspicion. I finally had a proper day off this month but I’m still incredibly tired. I do apologise if the quality is slipping a bit. >_<;
Inktober 2019 : day 3 - fountain Pentel
Divination can be done with almost anything if you know how. Aichmomancy would normally be done with a knife or pins, but a sharpened pencil will do.
The first outing this year for the splatter pen! I tried not to clean the splatters off the scan so you can see them. I did manage to do this piece in one hour, I stuck to my time limit this time!
I tried doing some automatic drawing with different pens. I don’t really know what I drew, but I like them.
Clockwise, these are: fude pen, fountain pen, pentel pocket brush, fountain pentel.
Here’s a video on automatic drawing if you want to give it a try: https://youtu.be/MJYGFwGhHnA

Some warning would have been nice.

When the nightmares are bad he wakes up exhausted.

Missed you.
Black lungs.

Inktober 2022 Day 4: Fountain Pentel
This was what I planned to draw on day 3, but it needed too much thinking.
She won't move until the vision is complete.
