I do not know if it was things I noted that made the difference or if some other connection happened in my brain, but I feel these last four shine just a tiny bit more! Maybe the rust finally cleared off of my artsy abilities. Whatever it is, I hope it is here to stay because it is so wonderful when stuff works out this way!
Day 11: Snacks
As you probably already guessed, these are some of my favorite snacks. They are salmon nigiri, blueberries, sushi rolls, candy grapes, Fazer chocolate with raisins and hazelnut, Pistachio Mochi ice cream, teriyaki flavored beef jerky, raspberries, and cheeseballs! If you show up with one of these, I will be the happiest alien on the planet! ^^ I might even do a goofy, happy, snacky dance while nomming on those!
Day 12: Remote
On day 12, the theme was remote. And while this year Inktober seems to be about travel, hiking, and adventuring more, I am always looking for a way not to draw the first thing associated with each prompt. So yeah, no remote island or TV remote. Instead, it is a survey drone! This little buddy goes into places where the environment is too hostile for lifeforms of biological matter. Its purpose is to scout the area, collect data or even samples, and it can be operated manually remotely!
Since it did not need to be too stealthy, like surveillance drones, I used brighter colored inks for its design. And, if something wrong were to happen while out and about, brightly colored drones probably would be more suitable for the salvage teams to find for extraction. Ahaha!
Day 13: Horizon
On day 13, we landed on the Moon again! The prompt was - horizon. I chose my horizon to be on the surface of the Moon. This was not my first crack at the Moon. In the past, I have painted a raccoon as a Moon, I sculpted a piece of the Moon's surface out of modeling clay, and it has come up in a few drawings, and a tiny painting before. However, so far this one is my favorite! I was having a blast with all the craters and adding the tiniest texture details! Can you tell? It seems moon-like. Right?
Day 14: Roam
Finally, on day 14, the prompt was - roam. I spent some time wondering what to draw for it. But then wandering trees, treants from Dnd and HoMM, and ents from Lotr came to mind! Yep! That was it! While treants do not always seem to be portrayed as super friendly creatures, I decided that my treat would be this friendly, gentle forest being. He is happily roaming the forest with his bird friend away from the eyes of humans.
Tune in for the next batch in 3 days!
Song of the day: Linkin Park - QWERTY
Is that an imperial probe droid?
also, the tree reminds me of a card I have which needs to lead a Commander deck for Magic:The Gathering eventually.
The imperial probe droid is so scary! But you know sometimes I have this thing with my mind where I subconsciously have recorded how something looks like and it comes out on the paper in some ways. So I would not be surprised if some aspects appear similar to some existing things I have seen briefly or otherwise. Like the eyeballs probably looks similar to the imperial droid. At one stage it reminded me too much of BB8 too. xD I have a very visual mind and I remember things visually easily.
Oh the MTG is another thing I am trying getting into. Now that I think about it I am so behind most people with games and stuff like that. I played drats and billiards recently, and had the same thought.
I still have not opened some of my Bloomburrow cards! I get excited about opening card packs but some of the more experienced players in my group tell me that I should probably just buy the cards I eventually want.
Opening packs is fun. Building a deck list online and ordering singles is more financially savvy. I buy packs, mostly.
I saw ‘Snacks’ in the title and started dreaming of pīrādziņi...
PS. Lieliska kolekcija! :)
Pīrādziņi are great! I wish I could make them better. My mom makes really great ones. I should learn from her and maybe we have pīrādziņi masterclass at Krolestwo at some point?!
Liels paldies! Man ir sajūta, ka mans radošums sāk atraisīties daudz vairāk pēdējās dienās. Man par to ir liels prieks! :)
Jā! Jā! Un vēlreiz JĀ! :)
Okey, I fell in love with that smiley tree, and I see it's also your favorite among all your Inktober 2024 kids 😅 This week I've seen a lot of artists doing great quality work like this, I really feel inspired to draw again, but unlike you, I think I am rusty, we are talking about years, I think since the pandemic.
I really liked the first image with all the drawings to date, in fact I really enjoyed the cat, but that day I couldn't stop by to comment, I'm still happy to agree with this post. Happy start of the week! ✌️
I mean, the smiley tree just seems like such a happy character. It is exuding positive vibes! I smile myself every time I see it!
You should! Before I joined Hive (back then still Steem), I was just as rusty. It will be strange at the start but you will get past it with some persistence.
Aw thank you! Happy start of your week too! And thank you for visiting my blog and taking time to comment! It means a lot.
Your art collection is lovely. It is hard to decide which piece is my favorite. They are all charming in their own way.
Thank you @fieryfootprints! I had so much fun creating these and I think it shows in some ways. Maybe splitting the week in half in terms of posting was a good idea since it takes some pressure off too.
wow, very nice art, it took a long time to make
Thank you @momins! Yea this batch had a bigger time gap between my posts. But at the same time it felt like a more pleasant pace and could really get into the creative processes.
