Inktober 2019 - The Castle Drawings

Well, Inktober 2019 came round and because I'd missed Inktober 2018 by virtue of being hard at work in Crete, I determined to give this year's event a go. However, I have a poor track record in keeping up with challenges and even this first drawing came unwillingly. I simply sat down and drew what came into my head. 

And that's how it went for a week, but I became conscious of how much thought I was actually giving to each successive drawing, willing it into a series. And so, after a week I gave up. I'll post the other six drawings below, but as they're so clearly cartoons rather than serious drawings, I'm also posting them here on The Cartoonist's Hat as well as on Boogie Street.

All were drawn with a Pilot disposable fountain pen in a Pink Pig square sketchbook.

Here's my "Whimsical Town", produced quite quickly this afternoon for the Sketchbook Revival Facebook Group.

I'm having fun with some projects set up by the Sketchbook Revival Facebook Group. The challenge here was to find a creature by following the cracks in a pavement photograph. 

For a Monster from the Id, he's not too frightening.
