Pedal to the Metal: My Inktober Day 5 Illustration
I was excited to tackle the Inktober prompt for Day 5, “Chicken”. Immediately, I thought of creating a high-action scene with two cars driving at each other, and I was thrilled to bring this concept to life.
For this illustration, I wanted to focus on creating a strong composition beyond simply drawing a figure. To achieve this, I decided to draw the point of view of one of the drivers from inside their car, complete with a gloved hand gripping the steering wheel. The skewed view of the incoming car adds to the sense of fast-paced action, and I even included dust from the second car, complete with a headlight glaring at the oncoming vehicle.
I am very happy with the final result of my ink drawing. I believe that the composition and cars capture nicely the “Chicken” prompt. Overall, this piece was a great opportunity for me to experiment with a new technique and push my artistic boundaries.
