Tick Pick Stuck Roof Spirit - Inktober days 6, 10, 12, 13 and 14

in Sketchbook3 years ago

Pick one:
a) "This one looks juicy."
b) "Oh you poor baby, let me do your hair. There."
c) "If I only had chewing skills, not only sucking skills.
d) "I am inserting my babies here, inside this tiny humans brain."
e) "Being god is awesome! It's that time again that I get to pick which ones are born today. You child. Go and be born! Also, could you take with you these 10 million ticks that I've created to my own image."

I'm back hating every step of the whole drawing process. It seems that I'm unable to get the idea that I have in my head well enough to the paper, real life inking sucks and post-processing in Photoshop hurts like hell. So everything is pure agony.

Also the publishing part sucks. My so called drawings. Feels horrible, terrible and every rrible that hurts that you can imagine or invent.

I take solace in the fact that this posts tittle can be so easily misread. Just change the first letter of the first word to D. That also turns the tittle to a short story. A very unfortunate short story. Ain't that grand.

I'm not going to explain my poor drawings more, I'm just gonna put them here and (again) go cry to some dark corner.

I know what you're thinking. Is that blood? It could be, but no. It's red ink that I bought last year.

Those sketches are nice. I love the one with red ink the most😊

Thank you, you're too kind. :)

Lol interesting art but I’m definitely following for the humorous self deprecation. Have you been doing inktober? I was too lazy this year myself.

Thanks! My misery is best served with terrible drawings and self loathing. :D

Yes, inktober in deed. I'm not comfortable at all drawing and very much out of my comfort zone when inking. I chose the hard way, traditional ink and ink pen with nibs. At my best I'm just horrible in it but my goal is to practice more so I'm forcing myself to do it. Third year now. Also third year with liquid ink. Did I already say it's hard and horrible? :D

I see #inktober as motivation to do something that I don't like doing. I would prefer a game where one draws a picture a day in whatever media a person desires.

I actually wanted to try this because I was at a store where I was asked to sign a piece of paper and found that I was actually having a hard time writing with a pen.

I seem to have solved the publishing problem by simply not publishing the pictures.

Me too, very much so. I'm out of my comfort zone. I rarely draw with pen (on Inktobers...) and inking with liquid ink and with pen and nibs is now for me the the third year, third inktober. So I really do not have that much experience in this.

Ah, the not publishing solution. I know. It's tempting but because I have this principle that sometimes it's good to show everything that is before that piece that I am content with, so I force myself to publish. It's just because life isn't perfect and I should just let go of the thought that I can not publish anything if it's not perfect or if I'm not happy with it. Life is also hard work and I want people to see that normal people struggle and practice. So that's why I decided to publish.

Agony. Misery. !PIZZA

Pizza always helps. Thank you!

At least now I understand why my Tick Picks haven't been well received. I always assumed Leaving the D in was a requirement.

Never got it stuck on a roof tho... Maybe its just smaller than average?

Or perhaps it's the roof. The roof is all wrong.
