#Fantasmicalloween Day 31: Trick-or-Treat Troll
That’s gotta be just a costume, right? Right??… This is the last one, Drawlloween concludes for another year. I did 21 of 31 prompts, which I think is pretty okay. I’m satisfied! HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!

#Fantasmicalloween Day 30: Turnip-O'-Lantern
This is drawing the jack-o-lantern equivalent of doing the tiny little face on the normal-sized pumpkin but everyone likes it because it’s cute. This is the second-last Drawlloween and we’re almost at the end!

#Fantasmicalloween Day 29: Jolly Scarecrow
We’re 2 days away from Halloween! I think I would have preferred drawing a scary scarecrow instead of a jolly one, again not really my wheelhouse, but I think he’s jolly enough for the task. I got to use some brand-new inks with this one.

A mysterious mask maker plies their craft - they need to make masks because they themselves have no natural face. OoOooh spooky story. There’s only a few more days until Halloween folks, this is not a drill!

#Fantasmicalloween Day 26: Toad Wizard
He’s a wizard, and a toad. He’s a toad wizard. He can conjure fireballs or something. I tried colouring this one digitally for something different and found it just as hard as painting, but at least there's an undo option.

#Fantasmicalloween Day 20: The One Who Speaks to Ravens
I thought the flowy forms would be fun to do. I painted heavy with the ink and used water with the background, the sketchbook pages don’t hold up well but I like the final image. I’ll have to get a watercolor friendly book next!

Okay, so I kept working on this and found a way to delete the bad arm some more by adding details to the carpet. I'm sure the design isn't era-accurate, but whatever. I think it helped a lot, I'm less embarrassed by version 2.0.

#Fantasmicalloween Day 19: Victorian Vampire
I tried to do a female vampire in victorian night attire. I screwed up one arm, decided to try to hide it and speed through some background and count on an ink wash to push it out of mind. It’s meh but I like the idea of this vampire lady.

#Fantasmicalloween Day 17: Keeper of Ghost Stories
It’s the Crypt Keeper from ‘Tales of the Crypt’ with a new story, just for us. Got a bit experimental with the red colour. Who am I kidding, all of these are experimental. Should have just kept it to one good swipe of red, though.

I went pretty literal on this prompt. I tried for a children’s book style but maybe my style is childish. I’ve never actually drawn mice before and I think the results are mixed. I like the front-facing one even though the nose smeared.
