This is a pretty solid piece, the lines are extremely clean, the colouring is done well, and so is the shading! The one problem I have with this piece is the pumpkin, it looks out of place, most likely because of the angle of it. If it were more of a side view than an up view, I feel like it would have made this piece a lot better than it already is! I enjoy the large eyes, as they give off lots of expression, and the anatomy is also pretty good. I like how you made some of the lines yellow to give off a glowing or bright effect .

It's really hard to find any flaws in this image, except for the anatomy of the paw that is visible, and the shading near the eyes is virtually nonexistent. Lastly, the pumpkin should have a more hard, rugged texture... it's a pumpkin remember, not a volleyball. Despite everything I've said though, none of these are major problems, just the only flaws I could find under a deep analysis. The only thing that I truly find wrong is the paw, the other things are just irrelevant details. Now, the good stuff. Your lighting is absolutely STUNNING in this image, like holy shit, I don't know anybody who can use lighting better than you, not even riverspirit. Sure, shading has a lot of competition, but out of everybody I've seen, you are the best at lighting. Your anatomy, aside from the paw, has nothing that I can visually see wrong with it. You're at the stage where it's hard for you to improve, because you are already near the edge of your skills. This is just awesome. Your art has advanced so far within this time.

I love the way the sun shines on it. It's so cool with how the outline is like part of the lighting. I also love the contrast of color and its so cool how its kind of Halloween themed and she's a black cat with orange eyes and a pumpkin. The texture of fur and hair really adds to the lighting affect and its just beautiful. I also love the way her paws are spread out and the anatomy. I'm kinda confused about her expression though, I don't really understand why she is excited. But anyhow it is absolutely amazing over all.

First off, awesome job on this! It looks beautiful!
I really like the relaxed pose, it gives it a gentle, cute feel to the drawing.
The anatomy looks really good! The only thing I would suggest is doing paw/foot studies. (Honestly, both of us could do better with them.) They're really a pain to draw, but you have a good idea of the basic shapes, so I'd suggest working on the proportion/placement of the toes. Other then that, the anatomy looks amazing!
As for the pumpkin, absolutely adorable. I love the cartoon/animated look. It fits really well with your style.
The only other thing I could suggest is, the shading. It has a lot of depth to it, but some of the highlights/shine in the fur are a bit, to bright I guess you could say?
The shine on her bangs and face wouldn't normally be that bright from the reflection off the pumpkin unless the pumpkin it's self was glowing/super shinny. I understand you may have done it to brighten her face, but it look a bit off with the soft highlights.
If you need a certain area that's not in your main light source/shadows, then you can add a secondary light source to brighten it. Kinda how I tried here - fav.me/dajmhme
Then not only will it give it more detail, but it will also make it look like it has more shape or depth.
Over all though, amazing job! Keep up the fantastic work!
