Tokyo and Jerusalem, Strike 2

This time in pen and markers. The actresses from the wonderful play “The Mystery of the Lost City Guardian (of Doom)” strike again. I still don’t know what to do with Jerusalem’s background, but I’ll figure something out.

Inktober 31: Happy Halloween!

The outline and cat were drawn with a Waterman Phileas (EF nib) and Noodler’s Heart of Darkness (which I haven’t used in years, no idea why), and the hat and clothes were filled in with a Tombow Fudenosuke dual sided brush pen.

It was a fun challenge, and I really pushed myself this year to try new and different things. Can’t wait for next year’s Inktober!

Inktober 29: Grass Cutting

I was short on time today, so of course I chose a nice and simple topic…
In Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park in London traditional methods of grass cutting are in use to keep the soil healthy and protect the local wildlife. That means that if you’re lucky, you might see these handsome fellows at work while you’re there.

Inktober 24: Curiosity

The left part of the spread is my cat, in Tel Aviv (ink only). The right side of the spread is from a photo I took in a patisserie in Paris, France (ink and watercolour).

Done! This was a nice and interesting challenge. The characters in order from right to left are: Abaddon (Doom), Carthage, Tokyo, Rome, London, Jerusalem, Haifa, Tel Aviv.
