cryptid hunt

MAGTOBER / INKTOBER is finished! I completed all the days!
My first ever complete Inktober, wow.
Thank you so much for sticking around for this journey but don't worry; this isn't the end. All my energy now will be directed to working on the first issue of Cryptid Hunt.
I hope these drawings have been a nice introduction to the world and characters I love so dearly. I hope you came to love them too.

Future updates on Cryptid Hunt will be posted here eventually. But goodbye for now! And thanks again!

- sewyn,

DAY 1 - SOUR CANDY

i am not skilled enough to draw a good neon light in just greyscale, traditionally 👍

DAY 5 - CROSS MY MIND

Inktober day 5

"I wonder if you look both ways when you cross my mind."

DAY 6 - HIGH (OR LOW) CONTRAST

Inktober day 6

I picked high contrast for this. But man, today was rough so this is all I could muster out of me.
It's simple, but it definitely contrasts everything I've done so far, haha.
The usage of red ink will probably only happen here too.

DAY 7 - SHHH!

Inktober day 7

Better be quiet

DAY 8 - INSIDE VS OUTSIDE

Inktober day 8

i wonder what lays outside, just out of sight - but never out of mind

DAY 17 - UNDERGROUND

Inktober day 17

rushed this one, kinda sad cuz i like the idea still so i'm gonna redo it eventually

DAY 18 - RANDOM WORD GENERATOR

Inktober day 18

I purposely looked up a weird word generator and got the word "garbology", which is the study of garbage.

DAY 19 - FORGIVE FEAR

Inktober day 19

Struggled to understand this prompt. I guess it's about conquering fear, but I just decided to draw a bug instead as, well, people are scared of bugs and I was tired so I turned to my beetle fascination for comfort

DAY 20 - PULSE / VEIN / ARTERY

Inktober day 20

"Now I know how Daphne felt."

DAY 24 - REWORK AN OLD PIECE

Inktober 24

I decided to redraw the below picture of Ashti taking a selfie with a Fresno Nightcrawler. I was considering redrawing a more complex image but man, it's tiring

OLD ART (2020)

Old Version of Day 24

DAY 25 - INKBLOT

Inktober 25

Friend :)

DAY 26 - TEETH

Inktober 26

Fresno Nightcrawlers get compared to teeth sometimes

DAY 27 - PAY HOMAGE TO ANOTHER ARTIST

Inktober 27

Here is MC with my friend Kiwillien/Hewie's original character - Hazel! Check out their art here!

Whilst MC is eager to find proof of cryptids and ghosts, Hazel is more focused on aliens! Hewie's art has inspired me for years now, so I had to pay homage to them here <3 Thank you Hewie!!

DAY 28 - TV SHOW

Inktober 28

This piece was done on the road. Sketched out on a train to York, then half inked at a Halloween party, then finished in my family home the day after

DAY 29 - MOTHER

Inktober 29

MC's mother and Jude's mother have regular get-togethers to gossip

DAY 30 - YOUR WORKSPACE

Inktober 30

Ok so technically the picture I used for reference was taken on like day 6, but I had a feeling that I'd be away from home when this prompt came up. I was, but I didn't end up doing the prompt until I got home so. Yeah - it's nowhere near this tidy right now.

DAY 31 - KISS GOODBYE

Inktober 31

Well - that's all folks!
The Cryptid Hunt gang wish you goodbye.

(for now!)
