My input for the prompt: "Lush"


They came to kill, but died and their mothers cry by Ptero Pterodactylus on DeviantArt

Already more then 10.000 Russian soldiers died in this illegal war of aggression.
A multiple more are injured, mutilated and crippled for the rest of their lifes.

And for what?

Sent to a foreign country they call sister nation to kill innocent men, women and children, leaving nothing than burned ground.
Follow the orders of a more and more fascistic regime.

If I would be one of those Russian boys sent there I would throw my weapon away, surrender and ask for asylum.

Break - Putin and his regime broke Russia by Ptero Pterodactylus on DeviantArt

(Pelikan 400 - OM …..Troublemaker Petrichor)

My input for Inktober52.
The prompt for week 12 is: "Break"

Imho neither the West nor Ukraine nor anybody else broke Russia, Putin and his fascistic regime broke it.
This process didn´t started recently it was developing over the last 2 decades.

Russia had all the chances to become a living, prospering and free democratic state in the European family after the collapse of USSR.
Surprisingly Russia didn´t used it´s newly gained freedom after many dark decades of repression, fear and bondage in opposite to many of the other countries of the Warsaw Pact.

Instead they voted an old minded outdated KGB agent still dreaming super power dreams, and ruling the world as president.
Also they allowed him over the next 20 years to suffocate all the new gained freedom and kill the freshly grown democracy.

It almost seems that they want to be ruled without any freedom.

All the new threats and repressions of the regime also against the own people shows me how rotten and weak it already got.

I know that not all of the people in Russia agree with what happens, and it is difficult in the current state to change something.
But that we stand currently at this point is also the fault of many Russians over the last 2 decades allowed this self destructing process to happen.

For me Russia currently is only a ruin standing on blood of innocent killed people, falling apart, only be able to terrorise and threaten the whole world including the own people anymore.

Inktober 52 week 13: Bottle
I've already drawn a wine bottle and a champagne bottle but I saw one of these being talked about on a TV show recently. It's a rare old onion bottle so that's what I decided to draw. Not sure exactly where/how to put on the highlights and shading but I had a go.

Ok, here is my input for this week prompt: "Bottle"


Bottle - Trapped girl by Ptero Pterodactylus on DeviantArt

(Montblanc 14 - OBB ..... De Atramentis Silbergrau)

It´s a pity that the prompt for last week and this week isn´t reversed.
With last weeks prompt "Break" this trapped lady in the bottle could have been saved from her misery situation.
