Inktober - Day #07 "Exhausted"
It's almost midnight and therefore it's about to end day 7 of the inktober (at least in my country), but I have fulfilled and bring you my illustration for the subject exhausted, where I bring a beautiful elf that perhaps has walked a lot and has decided to rest a bit.
Materials:
- Opaline white leaf (A4) 180 gr
- Black marker
- Liquid ink and brush
- Black Gel pen
- Mechanical pencil 0.7 HB
-Step 1:
-Step 2:
-Step 3:
Next, I started the strong shading with the fine point marker, being careful not to get out of the edges.
-Step 4:
Once finished the shading with the marker, I have given clearer shadows to the skin and clothes with the help of liquid ink, which incidentally has not remained the way I expected, but I will continue practicing until I master the technique and the brush.
What is inktober?
The inktober is an initiative created by the illustrator Jake Parker in 2009, in order to improve his artistic skills, although over the years has made a great impact on the international artistic community. The challenge is to make a drawing with ink every day, hence its name, "ink" (ink) "tober" (October), although for the most part this is respected, many other artists prefer to stay in their comfort zone, so you can see illustrations made with watercolors, graphite, charcoal, digital and any existing technique.
