Halloween is Fast Approaching

The end of October is fast approaching and I have made a certain amount of progress with Drawlloween, hopefully today I will blaze through a whole bunch more again after I am done all of my cleaning that needs doing. But I have made it 18 which isn't bad. I can deal with having done that many, so if I can continue and do more I will be so excited.  Not to mention a few non drawlloweens in there as well. So the ones after the gravestone are client drawings so you should be seeing those as tattoos soon.

So it has been a really good month for drawing and tattooing as I have a couple of those to share soon and a few lined up to do.

I've also finally set up my own Facebook page for my drawing and tattoos so head over there for more up to date updates.

Drawlloween So Far

Drawlloween is coming along nicely this year, I have so far finished off 8 drawings for it and for some of the subjects *cough* bats *cough* I definitely had a lot of fun drawing so I went a bit overboard, but they are so far some of my favourites that I have done. Any and all of these I would love to tattoo as well so hopefully we get a few tattoos going with these as well. It has bee a lot of fun so far, so I will hopefully keep the ball rolling and get a few more done today.

I've added the list at the bottom if anyone else wants to join in the fun, I am going to try to go through the list in order now so that I don't end up at the end with loads of ones I don't want to draw. Should be fun!

Inktober

Got a few more drawing requests finished up today, one more nearly done but the final linework is still coming, both of these still are yet to be coloured but it will be a lot of fun, the brussel sprout is for Dixon so I think I will be able to drag him back into the studio soon for more tattoo times and hopefully I get to do the praying mantis soon!

Also its the first couple days of Drawlloween/Inktober, so hopefully I stick to this, but here are my first two efforts for it they were a lot of fun. 

Drawing Time

Its been a busy drawing week for me, had a lot of requests from people, so that has kept me busy, I think every single drawing in this post has an owner, or hopefully owner. So that has been a lot of fun! Its been a busy couple of weeks, with summer coming the Dungeons has been super busy, and the studio has been well booked up. So busy bees all around. Whch makes me doubley happy I have been able to draw so many things.

So lots of fun for me, the progression of size in Alana's goldfish was fun, I only needed to draw the body once, and then the tail kept growing and growing, but it came out really cool, and I'm glad we kept extending the tail, it really suits the piece.

Big huge thanks to the comic Bitch Planet, Kelly Sue DeConnick and Kate Leth for the inspiration for this last piece, I am so excited that Beth asked for this and can't wait to do get tattooing this piece!

Work In Progress

Back to work on the fun stuff again, so these are my 3rd and 4th tattoos, Joe at first wanted me to do his elbow, which was super scary, but Kris said no, as the skin is odd and I wouldn't be ready for it, not to mention, Joe has some extensive elbow skin, so we settled for the ankle-y calf region, which suits me just fine. And Dixon wanted his Critikill he had done some time ago covered with my smashing blouse painting. So they both need finishing, but it has been a lot of fun so far.
