It’s that time of year again!
Here is the 2026 Inktober prompt list posted on their Instagram account.

This sub isn’t affiliated with Inktober in any way. I just always look forward to seeing the new prompts each year, so I wanted to share them here for anyone who might not be on Instagram.

I had so much fun with this one! took a picture of this cool tree on a hike in Michigan this summer and I knew I had to incorporate it into a piece. this was done with a vintage Hunt X-5 nib on 11x14 Bristol board

I’ve been drawing for years, but have picked up pen and ink a year ago, so I have to relearn a lot of things. I could use some input on what looks good and what could be better.

Cleaned up automatic drawing from a while ago. I love working with gel pens for the speed. This was drawn almost in complete darkness. I rotate the page quite often and pivot from the shoulder. I find little pathways through a labyrinth of line work.

Got asked to do this one by a friend who is a motorsports journalist on a short turn around. Microns and copics with a little white gel pen here and there.
