I asked for sketch prompts, so now I give you the first results from what was offered here and on Twitter. I'll cover the details in a sec, but first I remind you that, as long as I'm sick and struggling to focus through the pain, I'll need simple prompts to help get me drawing. I need a LOT of 'em, too, because these 5-words-or-fewer prompts are all about volume. Drop 'em by the dozen for me in the comments! I'll also accept refs for your OCs, for the cheapest commissions around! (Except they'll be loose pencil sketches, and you have no control over if/how I draw them. Still a bargain.) I'm worn down, and these chaotic times mean anxiety is especially debilitating. It is really difficult for me to get back into gear, so I need these boosts to remind me of what production (even at this low level) feels like.

And now the prompts I used for this batch:

AUTUMN DECKED OUT IN REGALIA - We have Queen Autumn, with a crown, robe and scepter, with a bonus princess/priestess Autumn for good measure!

JACOB BLAMES SOMEONE ELSE - Poor lad may not be doing it right.

MS MONSTER AS A KID - What would she be like in her tiny times? Was she an energetic, fun-loving girl, before the world got to her? Was she always willful and creatively vindictive - the type who, if forced to wear a bow for class picture day, expresses her rejection of fashion in the clothing that won't be appearing in the head shot? Maybe one, then the other? I dunno.

BUDSPLOSION - I got a couple about Bud and explosives. It was my last sketch, and I was wearing down, so I went with the basic doom-bringing pose.

Keep giving me new prompts atop the ones leftover from the first post. My brain needs a lot of help!

The "Budplosion" gives me confidence in your ability to handle "Jacob in a Ball Pit."

Hi, Chris, These are really cute. I confuse easily, so I thought the one with Bud was him in front of a tree, holding up a spatula. But again, I'm "special," in several ways, and confuse, easily. You're doing great. Now before my mind wanders, you did ask for prompts: Spatula City (from "UHF") Ms. Monster as Mrs. Emma Peale Much younger ones, hopping around as kits - so cute overload (Oh, darn, too many words) So sleepy Distracted Fred Rogers' birthday (sweaters) Where's my phone? Can't ... resist ... cardboard box! Bubble gum Bubblegum Crisis Crisis of actual bubblegum (in fur) Windy Rainy Snowy Shady (suspicious) Shady (actual shadows) Marshmallow Space walk Costume party Sci-Fi costume party Doctor Who costume party 1920s theme party Sand castle Roller skates Roller derby Scary clowns (For some: clowns) Superfly Shaft1960s theme party 1960s "Batman" show theme party I hope these are helpful. Being introduced to Inktober was a wonderful boost to my own art output. Hang in there, and be good to yourself. You deserve it. :)
