Inktober, Day 3: Crown

I'm a day late with this one, but as today's word prompt (murky) is 'eh,' I'll skip that one and do this instead. I was originally going to go with a zombie Jesus with a crown of thorns, but thought of this. I went with the word play of the other day and you have a crow with a crown. I crack myself up.

Then again, I could have done Max from Where the Wild Things Are, Jughead (as someone else did), a sloppy orange asshole who thinks he's a king...

I like the crow. What's not to like about crows?

Inktober, Day 2: Weave

Today's Inktober word prompt is 'Weave.' Now, I could have gone with a spider 'weaving' its web, but no, you'd be wrong. Instead, I went with WEAVEr, as in Sigourney WEAVEr. Deep, I know.

And hey, I have now done more Inktobers than last year!

 

Belleville Drink N Draw October 2025

Last night, we picked up again with the Belleville Drink N Draw at Egan's Pub. I worked on a couple of cartoons that still need to be finished up, but here is a sketch that I did of a bar patron. I was going to also sketch her friend, but his ass was hanging out bigly, so passed on that one.

Inktober 2025, Day One: Mustache

5x8
ink in sketchbook


So, it's Inktober again. I'm not sure just how committed I'll be this year, the same as lately. I have stuff to do, dammit. Plus, some of the word prompts...
But, I take it as a challenge, to not only come up with a decent image, but to make it Octobery, spooky, halloweenish.
Today's word prompt is 'mustache.' So, a creepy, Salvador Dali skull, with the appropriate stylish and waxed facial accoutrements.
