DOWNLOAD EBOOKA hilarious collection of hand drawn illustrations in ink, as a personal goal to complete the 2017 Inktober Challenge. This year's theme was crazy contraptions, machines that are too convoluted to work or just plain silly. There is an obvious influence by Mad Magazine's artists both in technique and dark humor. I truly hope you enjoy it as much as I did creating it.
