Inktober 2023 #4: Dodge

This was a tough one. I don't like the prompt, and I've been stupid busy with work today, so I wasn't able to think about this much before sitting down and doing it. Not how I like to handle my Inktober drawings.

Originally, I thought I might just do something abstract but decided at the last minute to try something more grounded, but just a little rough around the edges. It's not a bad idea, per se, but I feel like it needed a lot more time in the oven to bake. You can see how I struggle with the contrast, motion, and the details of the plane/flight trails towards the end.

They can't all be a massive success of course, but it still feels bad. Anyway, another one done - hopefully I have more time tomorrow (and maybe I can tackle it earlier!

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Inka brush for linework and painting, and the Medium Nozzle and Splatter spray paint brushes for texture.

If you'd like to see how I drew this one, you can watch the time-lapse below:
