Description ~ Inktober 31: Witch Rat ~


Well, I know I said I wrapped up Inktober, but since I had more fee time today, I decided to make up for October 24th which I had skipped. So here is my final Inktober: Witch Rat. Just a quick doodle of something cute and witchy

Here is my entire progress for this month  (counting only the ink works, not the coloured pencil ones):

You should do some more stuff like this, it's so cute!

That's so cute! I totally didn't expect this from you at all. Definitely looks like an illustration from the 19th century. Mice and rats can be so cute. I love their paws.

Thanks a lot!! I didn't expect it much either, it was quite spontaneous I knoow, I'd love to have a fancy rat one day (only had hamsters before, but rats are much smarter, you can train them to do tricks   ^^). It wouldn't get along so well with my cat though xD

Unfortunately it wouldn't xD How do cats and hamsters get along? Is it better than cats and rats?

It could be better since rats walk around the house freely while my dwarf hamsters stayed almost only in their cage, but hamsters are anxious and they would be scared to death by the presence of a cat in the same house even if they're safely locked away. I never kept hamsters and cats at the same time though.

I just googled it and it does seem like while cats could get used to hamsters, hamsters would be very stressed out in the presence of any predator, so it's not a good choice for the poor hamsters at all. Yeah...there are some animals that can't live together.

Are you planning on getting yourself any pets then?

Probably not for now, since I'm always scared of not knowing how to take care of them properly. Need to find one that is most suited to not always being babied since I may not have time to do that xD

This ... is so cute! =O Look at that little cauldron and those little hands. And I love the way you've drawn the fur.

Also, I shall refer RetSamys here.

Thank you! I'm glad you find it cute, it was quite a spontaneous decision to draw something cute instead of my usual stuff (though rats are top 2 for me when it comes to "cute stuff" )

Cats come first, but I couldn't draw them properly to save my life xD

I can just picture this in a children's book from the late 1800s early 1900s. Superb for a quick sketch I must say ^^

Thanks a lot! An awesome comparison, it's great that it made you think of 19th century storybooks!
