What is Inktober?

Inktober is a yearly art event intended to improve your inking skills. Every day, there’s a prompt which everyone will draw with either ink on paper or digital inking

From the main site:

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.

What to do

The main two ways to participate are to draw daily like a marathon or every second day like a semi-marathon. The operative word being marathon. It doesn’t have to be your best piece of art or even something you’re proud of in any way. As the creator of this community, I know quite a bit of what I create will be absolute trash. I’m ok with this though.

This community

Preferably, I’d like to have a daily round up of content posted in a meta-post. Perhaps with people voting for their favorite art daily. Timing may be an issue however on my end.

Want to mod?

Feel free to contact me if you’re up to help mod this community.

Rules

Be kind Constructive criticism at most. This is a strictly positive community meant to keep a habit for a period of time. If you don’t enjoy someones art and can’t phrase any advice in a supportive way don’t speak up. This will be strongly enforced with bans if need be. A dictatorship of kindness. You may, however, ignore this rule for any post made by @sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works. Please, feel free to insult me so terribly that I’ll think about your takedown on my deathbed
