Inktober is Upon Us

#InkTober is upon us. This is an annual drawing challenge which asks aspiring graphic artists to draw a picture a day during October. The pictures are supposed to be in ink.

My account @idoodle has 78,000 CCC, 10,000 #VYB, 1,000 #POB, 10,000 #NEOXIAN and 10,000 PAL. It will be curating all of the #inktober posts that also include the #creativecoin tag. It doesn't have any HP.

Sadly the creativecoin.xyz domain no longer works. But the system appears to give out rewards for #creativecoin.

I think #POB is a great tag for the challenge as most people employ their brains when they draw.

Since I don't aspire to be a graphic artists, I really don't see a need to work on my inking skills.

I want to be able to create colorful images that I could put on web pages.

My thought is to do mixed media. I like to lay down a basic picture with Prismacolor crayon, and then add details with ink.

I had an hour to draw a picture and a half hour to write this post.

I laid down an image of a person laying in a bed.

I then discovered that my drawing pen and disappeared during the year. I ran around until I found a drawing nib that I could use for a pen.

I wanted to draw little white stars about the dreamer and black crawly things on the bed.

The white stars didn't work. The ink was not sufficiently opaque and would bunch back up into drops.

I really didn't have any time to spend on the black crawly things. I also didn't have time to write the post.

But the only purpose of this post was to say that inktober is on. Even though creativecoin.xyz is dead, I think that #creativecoin is the best tag for the post.

The main thing I wanted to say in this post is the that game is afoot. @idoodle has a big pile of CCC and will be upvoting all of the posts. Unfortunately, CCC really isn't worth anything. The #VYB and #POB is worth more.

Here is the list of the prompts.
