Hi Everyone!
I got you all a good story. So my friend @jrej met in steemit a while ago through our common interest in comics. We had discussions about making a better site to read comics and stories. After fooling around with some ideas, I didn't do much and ended up not drawing for a while. But little did I know that jrej was learning how to code and ended up making a dapp connected to the Hive blockchain with features focused on comic artists and story writers. The dapp is called Inkito
Inkito is currently in an alpha phase, where some comics and stories are available. We're currently looking for comic artists and writers who want to test the dapp to upload their contents. Please contact me or @jrej directly to let you know how to link your comic/story through this dapp.
There are other ways that you can help. If you have an idea for a mascot or want to give a hand to develop Inkito's dapp or the community, please also let us know. We'd be glad to hear from you.
Before I go, I want to let you know how I came up with this sketches for a mascot. When reading Inkito I can only picture something cute about ink, it could be an octopus, a drop of ink, etc. In my case I started to think of super cute and also cartoony versions of an octopus that where both easy to draw and replicate but also very expressive (who doesn't like a super expressive mascot). At the end I came up with a tiny droplet of ink who is super excited to make art and write stories as it moves along the paper. The concept is super simple so everyone can replicate and incorporate in their comics. This is not the official design but is the one I like the most so far.
If you have another idea or concept for Inkito's mascot, let us see it ;)
Don't forget to tag @jrej and @cobmaximus so we don't miss them.
Cobmaximus out!
I like both the cute octopus from group C and the ink droplet of course. So kawaii! Maybe both can buddy up?
Haha yeah they could totally buddy up! I should make a comic of it
Ahhh I love the group C octopus so much XD
Thanks :D! I will make a comic about it next week :)
