Inktober 2016

inktober2016_01

E anche quest’anno eccoci all’appuntamento con Inktober. Un mese, trentuno disegni, rigorosamente tutti a inchiostro.  Il formato che ho scelto per il 2016 è l’A7 orizzontale; come l’anno passato rilegherò tutto a fine lavoro. Voglio limitarmi a una sola penna e un solo tipo di inchiostro, per cui userò la Lamy Safari (pennino EF) e il Noodler’s Lexington Grey.
E voi?
Here we are again, Inktober has just started. A whole month, thirty-one sketches, strictly in ink.
I chose the A7 format for this 2016 edition, in landscape orientation; just like I did last year, I will bind all the sheets when the month has ended. I want to limit myself to a single pen and just one kind of ink, so I’m going to use my Lamy Safari (EF nib) and Noodler’s Lexington Grey.
What about you?
