Inktober 2024, days 28-31.

10/31/2024. Dip pen. Daler Rowney FW acrylic ink “Flame Orange”. No pencil underdrawing, so mistakes fixed with Daler Rowney FW "White" acrylic ink and paintbrush. Background digitally cleaned up in Krita. Because my scanner darkens colors, digitally fixed the hue in Krita, to better match the colors on my physical sketchbook page.

Natsume returning yokai names.

This isn't the photo I entered into the Good Smile Company photo contest ("Tricks N Treats"), but it's very similar. I made a few more mini ghosts after the contest deadline, and I like to take some last few photos before I disassemble a diorama. So a new photoshoot was required.

FIGURES: Nendoroid Natsume Takashi.

PROPS: Yuujinchou accessory from Nendoroid Natsume Takashi. DIY yokai/ghosts made from wax paper, cardstock, construction paper, Staedtler marker, Copic marker, 20guage wire, glue. Scrapbook paper. Artificial grass squares. Artificial red maple leaves. Black artificial flowers.

Inktober 2024, day 25.

10/27/2024. Glass dip pen. Daler Rowney FW acrylic inks “Velvet Violet” and "Marine Blue". No pencil underdrawing, so mistakes left in. Background minimally cleaned up in Krita.

This was my first time trying a glass pen. So this doodle was mostly just testing, more than trying to make a clean drawing. Acrylic ink doesn't flow well on this glass nib, and the sparkley inks like "Velvet Violet" are especially too viscous for this glass nib. Thinning out the ink did help it flow better and longer. But dipping the nib immediately into water after dipping it in ink, does make the ink light and unable to re-dip in ink until I use up all the watered-down ink on the nib first. Glad I bought this glass dip pen on sale, because it doesn't seem to be for me. Even the decorative ridges gave my sensitive skin a rash. And the thick parts are uncomfortable for my grip.
