Time-lapse process for Day 11: Snacks
If you follow me then you probably can surprise my recent refrigerator adventures helped inspire this one. š
Time-lapse process for Day 12: Remote
The first twelve days of Inktober. Itās hard for me to pick a favorite but I think it gotta go with Day 10: Nomadic. Hope youāve enjoyed it so far. On we go!
āSee the line where the sky meets the seaā¦ it calls me.ā
Day 13: Horizon
It isnāt all puppies and rainbows during Inktober, you know. šŖ
Day 14: Roam
Time-lapse process for Day 14: Roam
The head start I gave myself for this yearās #Inktober is officially gone. Though Iāve got it sketched, Iāll be drawing tomorrowās entry on the day. Suppose I should be happy I got half way through the month ahead of the game but still. š
Day 15: eWorld Guidebook

Time-lapse process for Day 15: Guidebook.
I love trying to emulate the style of Appleās eWorld social network. Everything is so vibrant and the shapes are really forgiving but thereās a quality about it that if you donāt get just right, it def feels wrong. I think I pulled it off here tho.
This one ended up being much more fun than I thought it would be given the boring prompt. Yay!

Time-lapse process for Day 16: Grungy
I think many artists enjoy trying to emulate their favorite creators. I get a great deal of joy from looking at work I admire and trying to figure out what makes it so amazing.
Being able to replicate the charming work of Charles Shultz is one small example. The simple, sketchy line work, the amazing colors and even the shadows cast by the animation cells. This was a fun one. š»š
Time-lapse process for Day 17: Journal
Struggled with a bunch of stuff here including her face. I spent maybe 3 hours on this one start to finish. Time-lapse makes it look effortless, and to some talented folks this would be a cake walk, but it wasnāt for me. Still it was fun to draw and Iām amazed I enjoyed it at all considering the utterly boring prompt of āJournalā. š
āI have an ultimate storage capacity of 800 quadrillion bits.ā
Day 18: Drive
Time-lapse process for Day 18: Drive
I like to think Iām not a one trick pony. Sketches like this one really help me get outside my comfort zone and prove it. I knew exactly what I wanted to draw but I wasnāt sure how (or even if) I was gonna be able to pull it off.
The trick is to take things one step at a time and try not to get discouraged. This one couldāve been better but itās pretty much how I saw it in my head and thatās what matters.
Time-lapse process for Day 19: Ridge
Didnāt turn out exactly how I wanted but still happy overall. Just wish it was a bit more luminous . š¤·āāļø

Time-lapse process for Day 20: Uncharted
Gilliganās Island was my happy place as a kid. I would come home from school and watch at least 2 episodes which were played back to back. My mom *hated* the show but I loved it.
I tried to squeeze in as many Easter eggs into this sketch as I could - the WWII Magnetic mine, the island volcano, the cave, quicksand and more. Watched a couple ep while I drew which was also fun. š
Time-lapse process for Day 20: Rhinoceros.
Iām not really happy with this one, wouldāve done a lot of things differently but it was late and I think I fell asleep twice while drawing it. :-/
Time-lapse process for Day 22: Camp
What you donāt see here are the THREE attempts I made before this one. Couldnāt get the grid size and the flame shape just right. Much trial and error. I like how it turned out in the end though. Gotta push a few pixels every now and then.
Time-lapse process for Day 23: Rust
Itās amazing how subtle changes in eye position can make a character look spot on or āoffā. Struggled a bit with Benderās eyes here. Didnāt want him to look mean or have āresting robot faceā but slightly drunk or off-kilter with his rusty beard growth. Very fun to draw. #Inktober #Futurama #HumanArt #LineaSketch
āWe came here in peace, we expect to go in oneā¦ piece.ā
Day 24: Expedition
Time-lapse process for Day 24: Expedition.
Be sure to turn your sound up on this one! š¶ Also, remind me to never draw a nine-sided technical object ever again. š„“ This made me want to continue watching SG-1. I stopped somewhere at the start of S3 and need to keep going.
My drawings for the second half of Inktober. Favorites this time around are probably 13: Horizon and 15: Guidebook. I love drawing eWorld stuff so that one was super fun to create. Thereās only a handful of days and drawings leftā¦ where did October GO!?
āI think Iāll miss you most of all.ā
Day 25: Scarecrow
Time-lapse process for Day 25: Scarecrow.
No sketching, just drawing and it turned out okay! Will try to do more like this in the future if I can work up the courage. #Inktober #Halloween #HumanArt #MastoArt #LineaSketch
Time-lapse process for Day 26: Gamera
Iām not sure I made the right color choices on this one, could be a lot stronger I think but the play on words was still fun to draw and I love shading with halftone dots. š¤·āāļø #Inktober #Halloween #HumanArt #MastoArt #LineaSketch
Time-lapse process for Day 27: Road.
I debated in my mind if I was going to actually draw this one and I decided I had to. Like most of you I simply cannot believe millions of Americans are prepared to embrace Trump and the fascism, lawlessness and racism he represents. I feel like Iām living on another planet. I hope we all soon learn our fears were unfounded. I hope. I hope. #Inktober #USPolitics #HumanArt #MastoArt #LineaSketch
Time-lapse process for Day 28: Jumbo.
Yes, I drew an elephant but I tried to make him as adorable as I possibly could to make up for my lack of cleverness.
Hard to believe but thereās only three days/drawings to go. Crazy.
Day 29: Navigator
I still carry a grudge to this day about Farscape being cancelled way ahead of its time.
Monte Freeman@gedeonm Oh wow. That looks exactly like Pilot!
I really enjoyed Farscape. I think I had a crush on Ben Browder. š„°
Awesome drawing!!

@montef Thanks! What an odd character Pilot was. Had to get a good look at him for this and wowā¦ so much detail.
@gedeonm The puppetry alone for all of that character to function was masterful!
