Eternity RPC Board
On track for Week 2! So far, I’ve made it way further into an Inktober than I’ve ever managed before. Not halfway there yet, but this is still something.
Sal’s Completed Week 2 Prompts (Still collapsed for your viewing pleasure!)
10.8 — “Star” - Space Barbie.
Watercolor galaxy scenes are kind of my go-to when I don’t know what else to paint, so imagine my delight when the prompt aligns with my favorite thing. This one is technically unfinished because I want to add stars, but I haven’t been able to find a white gel pen. So it’s as finished as I can make it for now.
And I did get this finished yesterday; I’m just late posting it.
I learned a lot about shading larger areas with cheap Crayola ink (minus the skin tone which was Prismacolor) and about using water-on-marker to get some interesting effects.
Recommended Listening: ”Astronautti” — Pariisin Kevät
10.9 — “Precious” - I mean, I was obviously going to draw kittens. These are summer camp kittens. Or something.
Tools: Prismacolor Premier Fine Liners, Crayola Super Tips
Lessons learned: I really REALLY need some less saturated colors. Uh. I like the bushes and the grass. And slingshot kitten came out well. I need to work on planning colors out better beforehand; ice cream kitten’s bandana ended up being almost the same color as the bush. Oops.
Recommended listening: ???
10.10 — “Flowing” - Legend has it, following the Rapunzel River upstream leads to a most peculiar and wonderful source. But, of course, that’s just a legend.
This one, as well as “Tranquil” and “Star”, was one of the only prompts where I’ve known exactly what I was going to doodle as soon as I read it. The execution was definitely the more challenging part.
Warning for side boob and buttcheek eclipse, I guess?
Tools: Prismacolor Premier Fine Liners
Lessons learned: How to do rocky cliffs better. I really like the part of the cliff left of the water.
Recommended listening: “Even the Darkness Has Arms” - The Barr Brothers
10.11 — [No prompt] - Okay, so the prompt this day was “Cruel”, but that felt quite dark and meh. I wasn’t feeling it. What I WAS feeling was the spirit of autumn. The weather FINALLY turned, and yesterday was grey and blustery and my pumpkin spice powers were at their peak. So instead of something cruel, have these two cute cats on a date at the fall festival. :3 She’s excited about the spooky haunted maize maze, and he just wants to sample all the sweets.
Tools: Prismacolor Premier Fine Liners. I’ll probably color this one later, but in colored pencil for sure, so I guess that doesn’t count as ink.
Lessons learned: I’m terrible at backgrounds and “staging props” in a way that looks like the characters are actually in the same plane as the items, but I think I did okay with this one. I think you call that composition, but I’m not sure.
