Ged MaheuxTime-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 there’s 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.
Time-lapse process for Day 29: Navigator
This was so horrible at the very beginning I almost trashed it and went with a different idea. Stuck with it however and was happy how it turned out.
Could say that about a lot of things in life I think.
Two to go!!!
Time-lapse process for Day 31: Landmark
That’s a wrap on Inktober 2024. I hope you enjoyed following along as much as I enjoyed drawing. Inktober helped keep me sane in the run up to this stupid election so I figured it was fitting the final entry was about casting our critical ballots.
Thanks to all who liked or commented on my work, it really means a lot to me. I’m actually looking forward to next year, I just hope the prompts will be more exciting. 😐
Time-lapse process for Day 1: Mustache
Channeled Edward Gorey for this one, I have always admired his work. In college I wrote him to ask permission to use The Gashleycrumb Tinies in a school project.
I was delighted when he wrote me back & crushed when he said no. This was in 1994, pre-internet, only for class but he still said no. I never forgot it.
So I’ve always tried to give permission for my stuff when I can because of him. He died in 2000.
Time-lapse process for Day 2: Weave 🕷️
Note I flipped the lower corner content around at one point because I wanted the dungeon to appear like it was beneath the haunted house above. 😊
Time-lapse process for Day 3: Crown
This was one of those times when what I saw in my head and what ended up on the page were quite different. Sometimes it just doesn’t translate properly but that’s okay, it’s still pretty fun and spooky. I also added that final bit of background color long after I had “finished” the drawing, needed *something* back there.
Time-lapse process for Day 4: Murky
This one was inspired by one of my favorite online artists @csilverman. His use of color is amazing and his art has a unique otherworldly feel that I attempted to channel here to the best of my ability. This may end up being one of my favs from #inktober2025 I had a lot of fun creating it. Dark, spooky, and telling a story. 😱
PS - If you don’t follow Chris, I highly recommend following him. Such a treat.
Time-lapse process for Day 5: Deer
Not going to lie, this one had me vexed. Sometimes it’s the simple ones that are the hardest. 🤔
Time-lapse process for Day 6: Pierce
Time-lapse process for Day 7: Starfish.
Seen quite a few Patricks today so I’m glad I put a little extra spin on mine at least. Also happy I managed to get his smile to show through his ninja mask. 🥰 🥷
Time-lapse process for Day 8: Reckless
Sometimes the simplest ideas and treatments are best. I love the dichotomy of the adorable couple combined with the impending doom of their relationship. As Willy Wonka said “The suspense is terrible. I hope it will last.” 🌵🎈💥😅
Time-lapse process for Day 9: Heavy.
I love how much our understanding (and depiction) of black holes has changed since I was a kid. Tried to capture some of that here. Some. 😅
Time-lapse process for Day 10: Sweep
I took my time with this one and used really light strokes to try and get an old world book illustration feel. The background took *forever* and I changed it multiple times. Still not sure I’m happy with it but it is what it is. 🤷♂️
Day 11: Sting
“The Quest stands upon on the edge of a knife. Stray but a little, and and it will fail, to the ruin of all. Yet hope remains while the Company is true.”
Day 12: Shredded
I can’t believe I’m still drawing political cartoons about DJT almost a decade later. Worst. Timeline. Ever. #Inktober #USPolitics #FediArt #HumanArt #LineaSketch
Time-lapse process for Day 12: Shredded
Think I got his tiny hands and awful bronzer right.
Day 13: Drink
“My advice to you as your doctor is to start drinking. Heavily.” 🥴
Time-lapse process for Day 13: Drink
Day 14: Trunk
“Very exciting. As a luggage problem.”
Time-lapse process for Day 14: Trunk
This is my obligatory plug to say if you’ve never watched Joe vs the Volcano with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, you really should. It’s a movie unlike any other. Symbolism and allegory galore, a kind of modern day fairy tale that is an escape for just a few hours. Plus it’s damned funny.
“I wonder where we’ll end up?”
“Away from the things of man. Away from the things of man.”
Time-lapse process for Day 15: Ragged.
I try to break out of my comfort zone occasionally and just draw without sketching first. This was one of those times. It results in a less tight style but it’s hard to adjust proportions and shading taking this approach, at least for me. Still came out pretty fun in the end though.
Day 18: Deal
“This deal is getting worse all the time!”

Lotta fiddling with this one. Wasn’t happy with the clown shoes at all until I fixed them near the very end. Really proud of Darth’s eyes, lots of time and attention there. We’re more than half way through now. It’ll be over before we know it!

Ragashingo@gedeonm Nice. One of the better Bat and Cat animated art styles, I think.
