Here is some #fanart I did of the cult #Marvel #comicbook character Howard the Duck. #ink #drawing #MarvelComics #duck #HowardTheDuck #12DrawingsOfChristmas #TwelveDrawingsOfChristmas #sbpprocess

For today’s Inktober drawing I decided to use today’s prompt word that’s on a prompt list that was created by the Instagram user pivoineink. Today’s word is “Valkyrie.” I immediately thought about the superhero character in the Marvel comics, who is based on the Valkyries of Norse mythology. I did a Google search on the comic book character and discovered that Valkyrie has appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies and she is played by an African American actress. (I haven’t watched too many movies in recent years due to tight finances. I’ve only seen two MCU movies: “The Black Panther” and the first “Guardians of the Galaxy” movie.) Since Norse mythology have traditionally portrayed the Valkyries as a group of goddesses, I thought it be okay to draw both versions. #Inktober #Inktober2019 #ink #drawing #pivoineinktober #Marvel #NorseMythology #Norse #Valkyrie #Valkyries #MarvelComics #MarvelCinematicUniverse #MCU

Today’s prompt word for #Inktober is #thunder. I have to admit that this prompt was a bit of a challenge mainly because thunder is a noise that’s not visible. But then I thought about an ancient #god of thunder and I did a Google search. One of the suggestions was #Thor, the ancient #Norse thunder god. In addition some of the searches brought up the #Marvel Comics version of Thor. I remember reading that #comicbook when I was a kid and there have been a few movies released in recent years featuring him. (Although I must confess that I have never seen any of them.) I based this #drawing on a comic book cover from the late 1970s since this Thor is close to my memory of the Thor from my childhood. #MarvelComics #Inktober2018
