I'm giving myself an Inktober-lite challenge of drawing the Precocious class in Halloween costumes, to be posted over the last two weeks of the month, on our way to the big holiday! Fourteen days, thirteen kids, one teacher, two costumes per post, and a post every other day - with a final post on the 31st that will feature the original sketches I made, including alternate outfits for some! (This one is public as a tease, but the rest will be backer-only.)

We're starting off with some pink cartoon network stars!

Autumn is dressed as everyone's favorite science-loving dictator, BUD! No, wait, it's Princess Bubblegum, from Adventure Time. Here she is with the dum dum juice that creates loyal candy subjects, like Pingoball Butler. (Pingomint Balltler?) What would Ivydoll become after a dose? The Red (licorice) Menace?

Suzette has adopted the look of the villain* from the Steven Universe movie, "your new best friend," Spinel! (But after the friendship went wrong.) Spinel the spaniel. Spinel. Spaniel. Spinel. Spaniel. That's it. That's why I did it. I don't apologize. Whatever, she gets a scythe. You have to imagine her doing a twisty spin before she beats your other friends, because this is a static image and not an animation. But it's cool to imagine. And you gotta imagine her singing the song. It's been going through my head alllll evening!

(*Technically, Pink Diamond is the actual villain of every plot, but you know what I mean!)

Next costume post should be on the 20th! If I don't collapse! Me doing steady updates for two weeks would be my first success at regular updating in something like 18 months... so cross all fingers? Also doesn't mean I won't also post some character/pet sketches during this time, if I make them. (By the way, my queue for that is really meager, so please drop me some OCs and/or pet pics, so I have options when I feel like practicing. And, if you sent me your stuff long ago, and it hasn't been posted yet, I absolutely lost it, so re-send it!)

Hi, Chris, I guess I'm too old to know your references, but they are cute. Hang in there. Take lots of little breaks. I don't know why, but creating art can make me feel more tired than anything else. I never missed deadline in 5 years' volunteering for the VCU student newspaper, and I'm on track, so far, with Inktober. So taking lots of little breaks works for me. Hope it works for you. I don't know what an "OC" is, and I don't know how to send you photos of my two cats. I don't think there's a button for that, in Patron. Is there one on the Precocious site?

The costumes look really good, you did a great job on them.
