Inktober: mushrooms

[eller]

So these are my mushrooms for Inktober! :) I again used my fountain pen with fude nib, except this time I drew on grey paper so I could also use white highlights. For these, I used a Faber Castell PITT artist pen that's not entirely cheating because it contains "India ink - waterproof".

I feel kind of bad for wasting a whole A4 sheet of rather expensive paper for this, except I really wanted to see if this technique works out. It doesn't. Now I know. (It's really annoying when something ends up too bad to sell but too nice to throw away without hesitation. What am I going to do with all that wastepaper? ;_;)

Yesterday I also drew something about "dance" but I decided not to upload it - the sketch turned out nice, so I decided to use it as basis of a lineart for a collaboration game thing. Unfortunately, the participants' drawings have to be kept secret. Oh well.

I love the impressionistic, almost ghostly quality of this!

Now you made me want to draw actual ghost mushrooms! :D Ahem. Thank you - I happen to like impressionistic art so that's okay I guess?
