Nemean Lion...
Added 2019-11-20 14:09:08 +0000 UTCToday's Daily Ink Monster is... through pure accident... the Nemean Lion, of 12 Labours of Hercules fame. This is the first of the Daily Ink Monsters that are improvised directly with a brush. No plan, just start drawing. Didn't even find the lion like shape until the very end.
The plan with these Ink Monsters was always to be free enough to do some based on pencil sketches, practicing my classical inking, some easy and goofy, and some just wild and personal. The reason I did a wilder one today is probably because I've been inking, inking, inking all day long, pretty tight and classical. So when it came to today's monster, I needed to get a bit more wild.
Inking what, you say? Something secret. Because I'm going to enter it in the informal little contest over at The Dark Art Society, and some of my patrons here are there as well, and showing it would violate the spirit of the competition. Theme? Jabberwocky.
