The sky is Büroservice Bergmann IG blue
The wall is Büroservice Bergmann IG red

The rest I used gold /silver pens

#50, "Combo".
I don't know how many remember the "Spy vs Spy" cartoons written for Mad Magazine by Antonio Prohias. There was an eternal rivalry between the White Spy and the Black Spy; whoever lost in one issue would win in the next.
Very rarely, the Grey Spy would show up and defeat them both. I thought of including her as an observer here, but decided that it made things too complicated.

not sure if this is a real "COMBO"...
...and the idea is stolen too. https://jaredillustrations.ch/wp-con...05_2014_17.jpg
I thought of something outside the box for the Combo prompt. I drew this image earlier this year for the Stripes prompt. So I adapted it to become what I thought might be considered as a combo.

One of their biggest hits, with the help of some airplay from the Wolfman...

Yesterday, I did a couple of sketches and inked this one:
I don't now why I drew it, but it seems my combo was listening to @catbert's combo jamming

#51 "Victorian".
Well, who could be more Victorian than Victoria herself?
Based on this source photo..
Actually, this prompt touches on one of my favorite subjects, portrait sketches based on photos from the 19th and very early 20th centuries. I don't think I saw the humanity in photos of these historical figures so clearly before I tried to draw them.
Merry Christmas everyone! Or, of course, the holiday of your choice.

since I am interested in history of architecture, I choose to draw the facade of a fictive residential building in victorian style.
the dip pen I used, dates from the Victorian era as well.
Great job @kaptunik.... really like it
@christof, That's lovely! thanks for giving me an inspiration. I made sketch you Victorian pen What ink did you use?
Thank you. I used vintage Pelikan 4001 brillant red. not sure if the color tone is still the same today.

I expect that everyone is preparing for their new year celebrations, and the final Inktober 52 prompt just isn't a top priority.
I don't care to join Instagram just to view the list, but some googling found the information here. I have no reason to think it's incorrect. "Myth".
Happy New Year everyone!

After several failed attempts at a Dickensian Christmas scene, I settled on a couple of Victorian gents.

@Catbert, brilliant! I'm having difficulty with the Victorian theme I was going for the Strand engravings
