Inktober52 2025

Inktoker52 is a spinoff of Inktober...a WEEKLY prompt is released every Thursday for artists at all mastery levels to response to on top of the daily prompts in the month of October...


giving this a go this year to reduce the lack of motivation and stress of completing a DAILY drawing for the annual Inktober... i even allocated half a page in all the weekly pages in my planner for this!!! 💪💪💪





a tequila sunrise at sunrise - a tai tai lifestyle that i want seh!!!



i luv shrimps (prawns?!?!?)... big, succulent ones that are already peeled for consumptions... gave up trying to draw the noodles & kway tiao... not my level yet... 😓



the only 'tick tock' that was in my radar this week was on the 'tik tok' ban then an almost immediate revival!



included the Aquarius in my life...



one of my bucket list.... to be the human in the cage, watched by free-roaming animals... wahahahaha...



surprisingly, this was the easiest to draw thus far cos a little off proportion, a missing or an additional part here and there also make no diff that this is a dripping monster.... wahahahaha



inspiration from the minion movie... 😂😂😂



the first Pisces who popped into my head...



inspired by this interesting sad news of an angler fish on its 自杀 journey... 😓😓😓



reference from photographer Van Duijn's picture perfect moment of a squirrel smelling a yellow daisy before taking a bite of it...



我也有想耍帅的欲望... 😎😎😎



切八段 绝交... 😂😂😂... got the idea from the C-drama 偷偷藏不住 where 桑稚 and 桑延 were 'fighting' over a fight in a cafe...



and i spotted him at this place above... could remember it so well cos it happened at a age when i was obsessed with horoscope... 😂😂😂



the conversation on 18 Dec 2022:
Allie: Candy Auntie, are you scared?
Moi : erm, yes, a little bit.
Allie : I'm not scared.
Moi : 😅😅😅



googled what Axolotl is then realised it's this cute pink smiley salamander that had caught my eye with its fashion sense... 😍😍😍



one of my favourite pleasing view



i will gladly pull the trigger on the two tauruses who wasted my time and energy if it's not a crime!!!






it just had to be this prompt on the week of ur anniversary...
妈咪 好想 好想 你



din even know got this character until i googled about the cute mushroom 们s in mario... 😅😅😅






the only 'spur' i know.... learnt it during my soccer watching days...



i made 你一个, 我一个 during puppy love time?!?!?!?



就水咯... 💧💧💧



googled 'solstice'.... there's a summer one on 20/6 and the thing which stood out most that day was 妹妹 drinking this teeny tiny bottle of 酒 in a super cute manner during our Ghosts & Spirits walking tour in Munich...



learnt new facts sketching this...






my favourite super ... so favourite that i even had a blog post back in 2011 about it!!! 😂😂😂



my second favourite character in the marvel universe after Hulk






Scrump; Lilo's handmade rag doll






my star, joan miro style...

maintaining my ideal weight of between 52 and 54kg is getting harder & harder every year and i'm nowhere near this ideal since the June holiday + am getting sick of having to decide on what to eat on days when i dont meet any meal kakis + the idea of healthier eating was triggered from reading the 退休 @ 45 book...
