#Inktober2018: Days 1-8

I was originally going to try #Drawloween again this year, but I decided that the prompt list wasn't to my taste. It included far too many bizarre puns that seemed more restrictive than inspiring.  The prompts for #Inktober2018 (see below) are much simpler, so I've decided to use them instead this year.

I got a little bit of late start due to the 1st being a Monday, but I caught up over the weekend. 

To see all my #Inktober2018 drawings, see this folder in my DeviantArt gallery.

Day 1: Poisonous

Day 2: Tranquil
This one was inspired in part by the servers' Oktoberfest costumes at Marikka's, a local German restaurant, the evening that I drew this.

Day 3: Roasted

Day 4: Spell
This is my nagaji sorcerer, Mahesh Imar A'zun, a baronet of Taldor. I have nearly a dozen active characters from my 2+ years in Pathfinder Society, but I think this is the first time I've actually attempted to draw one of them. (I may do more for Inktober if other prompts suggest some of the others.)

Day 5: Chicken 
Baba Yaga's dancing hut doesn't like visitors! I actually got to sic the hut on some townsfolk during a World of Darkness parody LARP, "City of Flashlights," in which I played "Mama Bubba" herself.

Day 6: Drooling

Day 7: Exhausted
I went to several open houses this weekend, and the weather here in Kentucky still thinks it's high summer. So this day's prompt was very fitting!

Day 8: Star

Drawloween is coming!

I participated in #Drawloween in 2016, despite a hand injury late in the month of October that year, but seem to have completely failed to follow through in 2017. (I think I printed the list, then forgot about it. Oops.) I'll be trying this again next year. 

My daughter (now in her first year of high school) has inherited my obsession with drawing monsters. She makes art far more regularly than I do these days, and thought this idea was cool when I did it two years ago, so I may see if she wants to join in and let me share some of her work.
