Sour took ages to inspire me, and I eventually settled for these sour expressions.

Stuck had me thinking of a traffic jam during my 'golden week' holiday.

Roof shows a dragon on a roof. Was feeling some Kim Jung Gi vibes.

A tick with a tick. Just Don't it!

To celebrate Blue Origin's suspiciously-shaped rocket leaving the atmosphere.

Compass is a little clichéd but it was an interesting enough idea.

Impact resulted from bingeing one too many episodes of My Hero Academia.

Did you know that there may be Tardigrades on the moon?

My daily 'loop'- 2021, colourized.

Sprouting from the corpse of humanity. Cheerful stuff!

Fuzzy let me get out my colour markers (not Copics </3) and create a simple, fuzzy and perplexed character.

My cat opening up for some chicken drumstick.

A leaky, giant mech. Should have pushed the perspective harder instead of opting for 'floaty camera'

Extinct marks my second, not-so-successful attempt at using colour markers. On the plus side, I bought James Gurney's 'how I paint dinosaurs' tutorial on gumroad as a result.

Guts, the struggler, splats all of his foes in Kentaro Miura's Berserk. This is my copy/adaptation of a panel from that Manga.

Connect did not connect with me.

Back to Berserk for 'Spark'- this time an entirely original composition, based on existing characters and references. Doesn't hold up against an authentic Miura masterpiece. Yet.

Crispy, crispy bacon. I should have pushed the perspective a little harder on the foremost rasher.

Patch is a bit more cutesy than my normal work, have to be diverse and try to tell a story.

Following my 'story' angle with 'slither'-ing snails.

The End of #Inktober2021! Risk was far from a safe bet- I got the idea from a wechat video of some crazy kids, penciled in my perspective and took a risk with the unforgiving brush pen. Feels good to make a little bit of progress!
