Artists unite for Oktober

[Luciana Valerosa Culming]

Hi there my lovely NF artists,

 

We don't have a LOFT yet and I was suddenly reminded that it was already Oktober and I hadn't done any sketches in ink. But I think Inktober isn't the right thing for me anyway. I'm just not consistent enough to draw something every day and also a little too busy. But I would like to do a little challenge with you, that would make me be more artsy then last month. So here is my proposal:

 

Let's try to post 31 pieces of art, that were finished this Oktober.

 

I don't mind, what materials you want to use. In the spirit of the Loft it can be crafts, drawings, paintings, sculpting, traditional and digital art - And of course anything artsy I couldn't think of at the moment. Just have some fun and challenge yourself to do a little more art then last month. If you haven't done any art for months, but want to get back into the creative prozess, you're right here.

 

I'm going to mark this post for the guys and gals, who have been hanging around the Loft:

@erosan, @BlackTezca, @Starpuck, @UnquietBones, @MrsFeanor, @Neeko, @Kelliestrasza, @StarRuby, @Pyrorazor

 

If you know anybody else, who could be intrested, just give them a call. It's already the 3rd of Oktober, so the challenge already started. And I wasn't sure, if I should have posted it in the PVP forum, because it's more co-op.

I really like this idea. I'm nervous to commit to something so grand. I'm not much of an artist but could certainly use the practice. I'm down to give this challenge a try  

[BlackTezca]

Yeah I didn't put up a Loft yet due to outside life really kicking my ass last week!  Thank you for putting this up and while I did miss the first three days of October I think I can try to do some artwork for the 31 days of October!  Count me in

[UnquietBones]

Hah, I am up for that battle!!  Mostly because I already have a whole bunch of works-in-progress and I'm always trying to motivate myself to finish them off.

I felt the same way. "big" daily challenges just intimidate me and then I never start or just stop in the middle. I'm glad you like the idea.

 

In fact I'm happy to have you all here =)

First little ink thing.  All black and white and pretty much no eraser no undo.  Experimented with use texture and big blots for shape and shading and gonna do a bit of a Hallowen theme for these

[Luciana Valerosa Culming]

Very nice. The proportions are a little unnatural, but that just makes it look more ghostly.

[StarRuby]

Challenge accepted! We can treat this like all those games where you have to beat the game or else the world explodes. 

 

DON'T LET THE WORLD EXPLODE!

Hehe I wanted him to look a bit unnatural and pretty much just use brush splatters to form his shape.  An experiment.

I have number 2 ready to go:

This one was pretty tough to do in a short amount of time (I think about an hour and a half for this) and I experimented a lot.  But I had a ton of fun with her eyes and doing that 'Vogue'/Utena look in this art.

[BlackTezca]

Number 3 is done and is a Companion to Wrath, though I think I'll go ahead and do similar images for the remaining sins (This one is Lust, Sloth, Gluttony, Pride, Envy, and Greed).  Anywho, check out Lust!

Another very fun one!  Love how the hair came out!  And the eyes were a ton of fun

[BlackTezca]

Forgot to post this from Thursday!!

Here is SLOTH!!!  The most weak, sickly, and apathetic sin

[BlackTezca]

I have two more pieces to show off for Inktober!  Here is the adorable Gluttony:

 

And the not so adorable, somewhat unsettling creepy Envy:

[Pyrorazor]

Wow I'm super late to this game on the account of me having to use a public computer for awhile, but I'll definitely jump in with a few drawings. Midterms are coming up so I'm a little busy with studying. However there is no time like the present

Indeed!  Nothing like the present and I am interested in see what beautiful arts people add here

Pride is complete!

One more sin to go!

@BlackTezca beautiful. Thanks for working so much in advance. ^^

 

I drew another birthday card, but somehow I had trouble getting the pictures from my phone. I'll try again later. So for now I'm going to show you a cool interview I found on deviantArt.

So here my first aquarell for Oktober. I really like how it turned out. Drew the card for a friend last week.

That's awesome!  Love the shading here and the very clean, barely visible lines!  Awesome!

 

The final sin, Greed, seems to approve, maybe:

 

He's a curmudgeon

[Luciana Valerosa Culming]

I at least did something creative today. Made an autum decoration for the table. I'm not sure if I want to but a pumpkin or a candle in the middle.

I'll try to take a better picture tomorrow.

 

 

[BlackTezca]

Did another 'Inktober' style piece.  This time of Undyne the Undying:

God this is fun.

[Tamesis]

I've been busy o.o I wish I would have seen this. I'm definitely up for it if you guys want to do this again next month!

[Luciana Valerosa Culming]

We still have ten days left for this one ^^

[BlackTezca]

Well got another one for yas!  Hotaru Tomoe from Sailor Moon:

UGH!  Just noticed some errors.  May fix that tonight before working on the next piece.

[BlackTezca]

Also finally have some footage up of my models!  You can hear me speak in this video (before it segways to the hubs) but yeah!  6 painted stealth suits!

 

[BlackTezca]

Final one for the past challenge:

[Luciana Valerosa Culming]

Two sketches I drew at the end of Oktober.
