October Crossover Challenge - Illustration #1

 

In October, I thought of my own way to celebrate the Halloween theme artistically for the entire month by doing something similar to the Inktober challenge. The challenge for myself is called October Crossover. 

October Crossover is simply illustrating with mashups that represent the Halloween theme in any medium and colors can be used or not. I did not get to illustrate every day and my other ideas still have reference images for me to use, so hopefully I will get around to them.

Yesterday, the first illustration I was working on finally got the shading completed. My first mashup is between Nosferatu and Michael Myers, which I believe has much potential to be created for production among many others to choose. References & photos of my progress are shared below, mostly at stopping points. 

Mixed Media: Mechanical Pencil 0.7, Graphite Pencils, & Markers.

Working Now

 Hi Viewers,

Praying everyone is as well as they can be right now or building momentum to reach your goals steadily. I have recently obtained a job and working for about 4-days as a part-time employee. The work is morning shift and usually does not end for me until the work is done or someone tells me to get the rest another day. My job is enjoyable and suits one of my many skills well, so that is a relief even though I am still learning everyday I go.

This is an update to share my reasons for no recent blog goals being completed yet as there is much going on personally, so goals will get reached as I can get to them. 

Thanks for your patience and interest, Happy Halloween 🎃 🍬🍭 👻 (when it comes).

Update: I am no longer employed, after dealing with another corrupt business. Thank the Lord that at least my short track record with payroll jobs has proved to me that the work has not been the issue and corrupt over privileged members governing the work are the problems I have faced lately. 

There is more I could express on the subject, except moving on with faith and peace is the best option for me. Corruption and confusion can stay where it is at, I have to keep moving on the path I seek. 

Coming Soon!

    Hi Viewers. It has been a while since I updated my blog that is still a work in progress, and this is an attempt to share upcoming updates. I am still alive and well, so that is a relief at the moment. Currently, unemployed and seeking part-time employment mostly in the area. Aside from that, I am seeking to improve my blog and get my works displayed online again. My daily supportive task usually takes much out of the day, unless I get an early jumpstart. 

    I do not want to half-bake my blog updates, so some updates may take time to put together before they are displayed fully. The updates list I would like to get around to soon are below...

[ 101071.jpg (600×750) (clipart-library.com) ]

• Title Change ✅

• Personal Logo Design Applied For Copyright Situations & Branding ✅

• About Me Information Added✅

• Sharing Illustrations (Fan Art, Concepts, Tutorials, Projects, ect.)

• Donation Pool For Support (if one can be added to the blog)

• Steady Blog Updates (as long as I can or between progress of completion)

• Portfolio Display 

• and more as I am able to manage this blog myself. 

HP Deskjet 1051 Printer/Scanner Unusable

 Hi Viewers, 

    This is an important update to inform you that I will be unable to upload and share decent images of my drawings until I am able to get another scanner to use.

    The printer/scanner was already unable to use as a printer, so I kept around to make use of the scanner function and only started using about a few days to a week ago again.

    Not long ago tonight, the scanner suddenly stopped working right as I finished a sketch of my next drawing to upload. Nothing was going on out of the ordinary and there were no issues to sort out the whole time I was sitting.

    Troubleshooting, unplugging to reconnect, resetting the app, and restarting the laptop did not fix the connection issue. A link sent me to the website to download content relating to my printer, except the name was not on the list. Another message that I read had something about the printer not being supported anymore, so I guess its connection was terminated.

    Despite whatever issue it has, I am sure it is a Black Friday scam product from years ago because the other ones did the same thing at one time too. 

    This is like one of those moments in our life when things suddenly break on us at a point when we seem to need them the most or when we are almost at our goal. Then a pitfall or derailing element is thrown in or pops-up in the mist of our journey. 

    Either way, I will still continue to improve my drawing and writing skills until I am able to share again. My cellphone's camera is not good for photo taking, so that is not an option at this time.

    To Be Continued ...
