Jack-o'-lantern Carved! |
This is just a little update on my 101 in 1001 list, because even though it's not even at 101 goals I want to achieve yet, I've actually managed to complete two goals from it already. Shockingly efficient! To be fair, these were relatively simple goals, so I shouldn't feel too pleased with myself just yet.
The first goal was:
- 028. Carve a jack-o'-lantern.
I began by acquiring a rather aptly named "Monster Pumpkin".

Then came the process of scooping out the seeds and flesh - again, all sounds very appropriate to the Halloween season, doesn't it!

Next, I drew on the face with a marker and cut it out with a knife. Initially, it had fangs, but my hand wasn't cooperating at all yesterday (woo for cold pumpkins/days and having Raynaud's), so they were lopped off accidentally - oops!
It wasn't as elaborate as some of the ones I've done in the past, but sometimes simple is effective, I suppose. You can see it lit, in the dark, at the top of this post.
The next completed goal was:
- 001. Complete Inktober 2017.

Above are all the drawings I did for Inktober this year. If you want to see a larger version of any of them, they can all be found on this blog under the Inktober2017 tag.
Yay, congrats on completing two goals! Really enjoyed seeing all your inktober pics, and your pumpkin turned out great!
ReplyDeleteThank you~! It was good to have a reason to draw something every day instead of just procrastinating, haha.
