RE: Inktober 2026 #2: Relic 📿
Thanks, To be honest, the necklace just came to me out of the blue. Since it was a medallion, I wanted the inside to have different kinds of details and geometric shapes to create a bit of contrast, and I came up with the idea of creating diamond-shaped figures.
As for Halloween, it’s one of my favorite holidays. I always come up with great ideas for drawings, but since it’s only one day a year, I often feel like I don’t get to make the most of it… This year, I hope to do something awesome 😎.
The idea of the necklace came for a reason. Well, it adds to the mystical.
Perhaps you should start Halloween a bit earlier and spread it out over a few days? It isn’t really celebrated in the Netherlands, but here in the village they’re giving it a go. There’ll be a rather pitiful little funfair, a doughnut stall, and a few empty shops have been turned into a haunted house again; I also believe something’s being organised for children at the local playground. So Halloween isn’t just one day, but several days, and on the final evening there’s apparently a parade in the evening which children aren’t allowed to attend. If it carries on raining like this, the celebrations will probably be cancelled.
That's interesting—I had no idea Halloween was celebrated that way over there, although it would be a good idea to start celebrating it here at least a week earlier. In my country, it’s not really celebrated as a tradition either, but there are still places that throw Halloween-themed parties, and even in a town a bit far from where I live, they hold Halloween pumpkin fairs every year—though it’s hard to go very often since it’s about an 8- to 10-hour drive 🤣
