When I did the Inktober book back in 2017, I did some sketched-in copies, and then I colored a lot of those sketches for my own fun. There were enough of them for another book, but I don’t make sketchbooks. Yet I did do a mockup a couple of years ago [for redacted reasons], and I ran into that tonight while clearing out some shelves, and enjoyed seeing it again.
I even ran into the loose sheet of thin recycled paper with raw idea for this one —
(The actual drawings were done on paper that was too coated to pencil on, so it was straight to Sharpies, for the most part. It’s funny how we spend decades looking for the right pen and then end up in these situations with calendar-grade paper and only Sharpies working. Lessons everywhere.)
Still no pictures on paper for a while longer — here’s to hoping 2024 allows more of it.
