Today’s drawing is the soot creatures from the Ghibli films. I drew one picking up one of my dip pens.

Inktober 2026 day 06 Susuwatari
Inktober 2026 day 05 Hermione Granger
I was having a hard time deciding what or who to draw today. While looking through my references I came upon the idea of drawing some Harry Potter art. In this instance I wanted to draw directly from a reference photo of Hermione. The bigger paper makes it easier to draw and add more details which is cool. But it does use a lot of ink and takes time to fill out the full paper.

Inktober 2026 day 04 Kanzaki Kaori
Years ago I drew (back in 2018) Kanzaki Kaori in her fallen angle cosplay. Of course the drawing then was a bit wonky so I wanted to give it another try.
Also, I noticed that I was looking at this year’s prompts wrong so I think I’m just going to draw whatever comes to mind that day. Hopefully I do more autumn and Halloween inspired drawings to fit the mood.

Inktober 2026 day 03 Panic Mokochi
It’s been a while since I last did a Watamote drawing. I had a couple of ideas for today’s drawing featuring “panic”, but I just couldn’t pass up drawing Kuroki Tomoko again.

Inktober 2026 day 02 Cactus Togemon
When I saw cactus as the prompt I was reminded of Togemon from Digimon. I haven’t seen the anime since I saw the dubbed version that was aired on tv back in the day. I remember really liking it, I wonder if it still holds up? I wanted to add some action lines around Togemon but through Krita after I finished inking it. But I haven’t tried that out yet so I don’t know how yet.

Inktober 2026 day 01 Apple Hex Girl
First day of October today. This means it’s time to once again do the monthly challenge. I smudged the drawing a couple of times. It’s obvious that I’m a bit rusty, but it didn’t take me long to get in the groove again. Was busy so I didn’t have as much time to really work on it today, but I managed to get it done. I’m hoping to do more than just line arts this year, but we’ll see if time and other circumstances allows it.

Inktober 2025 day 31 Miyabi Natsuyaki Cosplaying Amu Hinamori
We have finally reached the final day of Inktober 2025. I’ve been wanting to draw Miyabi throughout it all. I’m so glad I waited because when I saw her cosplaying Amu I just had to draw her. She looks so cute.
Happy Halloween.

Inktober 2025 day 29 Mami Tomoe
I was worried because I’m running on fumes and started late. Luckily I eventually decided to draw Mami and that got the ball rolling. I was contemplating not even inking the drawing but I’m glad I ended up doing it. I’m surprised I haven’t drawn more of Mami since I really like her character.

Inktober 2025 day 28 Yusuke vs Perona
Run Perona, Run!
Recently saw a video of Yu Yu Hakusho and thought this would be fun to draw.

Inktober 2025 day 27 Sayumi Michishige
Working on the knit sweater sure took some time… I decided to try out different designs only to just outline it with a brush pen. This time I decided to try out my dip pens with the paper meant for ink that I mentioned yesterday. And sure enough, using the paper that is meant for you know. What it’s meant for, actually works. It not only resists getting it’s fibers cut, but it also doesn’t absorb as much ink as other papers. I’ll have to play around with it more. But so far I’m liking this Canson Pen & Ink paper.
Although I like how this drawing of Sayumi came out overall, It’s just a shame that I wasn’t used to the Pentel ink brush pens (which I decided to finally try out). I have a shorter wider brush and a slightly longer but thinner brush that I learned I like best, just too late. Seems like the wider brush is to cover wider areas, but I need the versatility of the thinner brush for my style. But now I know.

Inktober 2025 day 26 Karin Miyamoto
I was running out of paper so I bought some new one that was made specifically for ink and pens. I decided to try it out for todays drawing. The paper is quite smooth, I like it. When I get the chance I want to really try it out with my dip pens. On other papers it would cut the fibers and lift them up, so I wonder if that problem will not occur with this paper.
This time it’s a study of Karin Miyamoto using a photo from her instagram.

Inktober 2025 day 25 Cliff Castle
Was really tired today so I just rough sketched a mountain on a cliff using the brush pen. The cliff castle looked lonely so I decided to add a moon and the mountains behind.
