Halloween cat Shuri

This is Shuri, the only kitten we kept from Hazel's first litter. Doesn't she make a great Halloween cat?

Tbh this should probably be shaded, but my tablet's charger broke and I doubt I could shade well with a mouse.

Inktober day 1

Oh hey, it's October! Art challenge time.

I'll probably be jumping around between several prompt lists as they strike my fancy and we'll see if I actually remember to do this for more than a few days. Also: I'mma be using just a regular ballpoint pen this time instead of fancy inking pens, 'cuz it turns out I really like ballpoint pens for drawing.

Today's prompt is shadow, from the prompt list for Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere novels (this one). The character shown here is Kelsier, from Mistborn.
