"Squidney" an unofficial Inkscape Mascot
Tim Jones
If Inkscape had a Mascot, it might be a shy Squid called Squidney. Just like the Team behind Inkscape he hides in the background, always pushing Inkscape forward. Squidney has many tentacles, just like Inkscape has many various groups of users! The tail end of his body looks similar to the Mountain Logo. Oh! and Squids produce Ink... ;-) Most importantly... he's cute! LOL.

Inking Practice
Tim Jones
This is a "Study" of Inking techniques. The original artwork is taken from a Book called "Drake's Comprehensive Compendium of Dragonology". I used the Calligraphy Pen/Brush to draw this in Inkscape 0.92.4 to mimic the original inking style. (as I don't own the original I will reserve the rights on this upload)

Dragon in flight
Tim Jones
I gave a Live presentation at Chemnitzer Linux Tage (Chemnitzer Linux Days) this year, 2022, as part of the Inkscape Booth. In this presentation, I took a sketch through to a completed, "Ink" drawing, using Inkscape. It was great fun, with lots of fantastic interaction from everyone watching. I was using a "One by Wacom" Pen Tablet, But I also demonstrated how to do this with only a mouse.

New Selfie caricature 2022 version
Tim Jones
The rough sketch and final SVG artwork, was all done in Inkscape 1.1.2 I used solid shapes, along with linear and radial gradients. (no blur used) The use of a Wacom Pen Tablet, really helped to render the hair and beard. I used clipping masks for the hair and also the eyes. This allowed me to position the pupils and make fine adjustments. Draw Freely.

My Calligraphy Tool Settings
Tim Jones
Once you input these settings, you will need to adjust the sensitivity of your Pen pressure in the Tablet drivers. This will be different for each individual.

This picture was drawn with the Pen Tool and a Mouse, just to prove anyone can join in with Inktober, you don't need a Pen Tablet. The splash of water colour is a combination of two stock filters, Silk Carpet and Watercolour with a linear gradient to vary the tone.
