FINALLY I scanned all of my #Inktober pieces, that tells you how fare behind I am on scanning. Since I started using Instagram I have been putting a rough photo there and then put the piece in a pile waiting to be scanned.

I have a few rules for my personal Inktober challenge:

The Ink in question is fountain pen ink, so all of these were drawn with fountain pens, and maybe some water dilute or paint with the color.
No sketch lines or pencil lines first, no whiteout, just straight drawing without prep.
