Why this community?

In 8 days inktober starts. I’d like to have a place were people can see others results and discuss their experience daily. After failing to find a community for this event I’ve created one myself. I’d love to hear peoples thoughts on how this should run though.

What is inktober?

Inktober is a yearly art event intended to improve your inking skills. Every day, there’s a prompt which everyone will draw with either ink on paper or digital inking. You may also dedicate yourself to a half marathon style Inktober by inking every second day.

To be discussed:

My suggestion is that we have a daily round up thread where yesterdays art is collected in one place and, if wanted, vote on our favorite piece to be included at the end of the month in a “community favorites” meta post.

Any suggestion on how this should be run, anything we can do to make this more fun, or something not listed would be greatly appreciated.

Want to help the community?

I’ll admit, I don’t have the most time. I’d heavily appreciate it if some of you would be willing to become mods so you can make the daily roundup post, pin it, unpin yesterdays, and update a list of these posts. Of course, enforcing the rules and cleaning up spam would also be kind but I understand we all have time issues
