It's October, here we go again! Also how is it October already?

Starting off with a quick one after a late toddler bedtime.

Inktober day 1: Mustache

#inktober #inktober2025 #ink #drawing #mustache

a black and white pen drawing of a bipedal moth character holding a lamp, wrapping its wings around it like a cloak. its antenna curl from its head and around, like a mustache

Decided to add a little colour splash today.

Day 2: Weave(r bird)

#inktober #inktober2025 #ink #watercolour #drawing #birds

a black pen and watercolour wash sketch of an african weaver bird sitting on its nest. the bird is coloured in yellow and little patches of orange, and the leaves of the branch are coloured green. the rest is monochrome. the nest is approximately spherical with a small entrance hole at the front.

"You were supposed to be out of the marsh by sunset."

I really want to work out a better way of indicating the wake of a boat with ink, but this'll do for tonight.

#inktober #inktober2025 #ink #drawing

a black and white pen drawing with pencil shading. it shows a person in a canoe, paddling with a long oar, through a reedy, marshy waterway. the boat is covered in paraphernalia that indicates fishing or general travel. in the water are shadows that seem humanoid, some have tails. a small head with pointed ears pokes out near the right hand side

I blame this one entirely on listening to the Witcher soundtrack tonight

Inktober day 5: deer

#inktober #inktober2025 #deer #ink #drawing

a black and white pen drawing of a stag, with coloured pencil antlers that are glowing a blue/green. the eye is also blue green, giving it a sort of mystical fantasy vibe (I hope). it is standing with its front hooves on a small rock, to add to the dramatic cliché of the pose.

A water shrew catching some dinner

Did you know: water shrews are venomous

Inktober day 6: Pierce

#inktober #ink #drawing #shrew #inktober2025 #pierce

a black and white drawing of a water shrew, fairly accurately proportioned rather than anthropomorphised, holding a fishing harpoon/spear and looking into the water from the vantage point of a large rock. next to it is a basket of already caught fish. a shadow in the water suggests another fish will soon be added to the basket. the shrew has been shaded in lightly with pencil to denote the different shades of the fur

Too much No Man's Sky and too little time or energy tonight combine to bring you: A star fish. Get it? I am a comedian.

I never really do spaceships, so I figured I'd give it a go.

Inktober day 7: Starfish

#inktober #inktober2025 #starfish #drawing #ink #spaceship

a black and white drawing of a fish-shaped spaceship zooming through space. it has little colour highlights of orange on the "eyes" and the jets. in the background are planets and stars, in black and white

I don't know about this one lads...

Inktober day 8: Reckless

#inktober #inktober2025 #reckless #mice #drawing #ink

a pen and pencil-shaded black and white drawing of two mice, one wearing goggles on its head and another wearing a safety helmet, sitting in the top of a roller skate which has rockets attached to it. one of the mice is leaning down with a lit match towards the fuse of the rockets, which are tied together
