Hocktober is a great name. You should trademark it. It should be yours. I did not know about Inktober.
Inktober. Jake Parker created Inktober in 2009 as a challenge to improve his inking skills and develop positive drawing habits. It has since grown into a worldwide endeavor with thousands of artists taking on the challenge every year.
Here’s one someone did for “cold.” There person is skating on ice.
I am too late to your thread. Will try to find valid things, but will keep it mostly to Inktober topic after that.
NHL Playoffs Mascot Art by Eric Poole
Since you are a Sharks ban, but the artist has a bunch of work.
I want to post mainly Inktober stuff, so I will, but there are other art versions of hockey mascots that the guy did, so will post those later.
Thanks guys. All are welcome. My main idea was todo this all season but I decide to shorten for October (I mean Sharktober)
I’ll see about uploading a couple more of theses later.
Hope you don’t mind if I include actual Inktober stuff in here? We’ll see.
Definitely like the hockey mascot art. Reminds me of TMNT characters. White Buffalo. Buffalo Sabers
I intend on posting Inktober stuff, but one thing I’ll say is that the art from the hockey world is top.
They do a great job on designs.
I’m a fan of creative commons as long as person isn’t taking credit for some one elses work all are welcome.
I like that you do your own stuff. Nothing that I post will be my own. Biggest art fan in the world, but never got into it myself. One time, I listened to Rob Liefeld tell the story of how he and his friends tried each drawing Chewbacca and everyone’s looked rough but his was excellent. Since he had such a natural aptitude, he pursued it because he saw how much better he was at it than the average person. Growing up, I used to see the ad in comics all the time of a reverse projector device. You point it at an object and it projects the image on your paper, and you then, trace over it and draw the object. This was decades ago in older comics. Smart people back then.
Came across one of The Punisher playing hockey. There are so many amazing artists out there that never really get any recognition. That’s why I envy people with their own vision of story-telling and story-boarding.
tuggswingpuckA question for those who aren’t artists. Do you think that you can’t draw and/or think others drew better than you so whats the point?
I like that you draw yourself. I admire the conviction. Tim Lim made it big in Indie comics at Iconic Comics. He is super professional. He said he has no experience and did some interesting things including simply collecting pictures that he wanted to emulate. He has a manga style. It’s a regret that I have. Even if I just got into the habit of tracing for 30 minutes a day since like 3rd grade, it would have been a good idea.
What’s the point of what? Posting graphics for Inktober? The point would just be to recognize Inktober for what it is and to maybe find unrecognized artists with talent. I always liked the rough sketches in books. Happy Potter comes to mind. Just little images.
Not my sketch, but in your honor, I named it HoctoBear.
