First week of #Inktober done ☑️
Been having fun making a little ritual of sitting down to put ink to paper. Usually I struggle to share making art because IMO my ability to draw is worse of an elementary schooler, but but but this is a fantastic excuse to get out my comfort zone to draw and share ✍️

Hello from Croatia 🇭🇷
I’m in Dubrovnik for Reboot Blue (game dev conference)

I got in early to explore the old city. There is an old world beauty here I have only seen before in photos. I have some 360 footage of walking the city walls I hope to share it soon when I’m not busy exploring 🥾
