I said that I would use cigarette ads and what better topic to use them to than risk. The last one from the Inktober 2021 prompt list. Good riddance!
And don't you go jugging me on the sentences and catch phrases on the cigarette ads that I've made from the clippings of the old cigarette ads. I've seen Mad Men, I can do just as good ads as Don Draper.
My sales pitch for these ads:
"These ads are about everyday people. About everyday life. I mean, who among us can not say that they haven't been a little Sunday robbing round, climbing few roofs and balancing on a wire every freaking day. Yes! Exactly! You know what I mean when you just would like to stop for a while, put that heavy bag down because the candlestick is painfully pressing on your spine and just stop for a smoke. Or inhale fresh menthol mountain air deep in to your lungs from that 20 pack. You would just like to forget how your toes are crushed in the pointe shoes and how it's pretty windy under your tutu."
So I would say better than what Don Draper would have made. Don is fictional, I am not. Mad Men isn't real. This everyday life that I've described, is.

I used different apps than with Slither. Crappy ones and crappier ones. Also trying to draw with Stylus pen made it horrible and not that easy. It's the tip. The soft, big tip that makes it impossible to do anything precisely. This ballet dancer on a wire I made with some app called Painter. I wasn't convinced about the app at all. Deleted it.
Again I scanned the Hjemmet magazine clippings, fixed the drawing in Photoshop and also added the cigarette boxes and text.
En point on a wire, clearly a smoker. If that ain't risky then I don't know what is.

The robber I did with Ibis Paint X. It was horrible to use. Can't remember anymore why it was so horrible, perhaps my brain forgot the reason to protect me, so can't say why. Deleted this app also after this one drawing.
There's the short, big headed, ministry of silly walking robber thinking if a break would be okay. Craving for South State tobacco.
This last drawing was born when I just started doing something while trying different pens. It's done with Tayasui Sketches which was so easy to use and was perfect for just sketching and drawing. I will definitely return to this app some day.
Huion Sketch also was really promising app and I still have couple apps more that I haven't yet tried out. ArtFlow and MediBang Paint. Although drawing with Stylus pen (soft, large tip) is hard, I guess I just have to stop trying to draw and be so pedantic about it and just find what kind of drawing is possible with it. And if I some day find a sharper, proper drawing pen that works with my old tablet and doesn't cost astronomical amounts, perhaps I'll buy it and realize what an ass I've been torturing myself with this cheap pen I already had.

If this three shroom group was an ad, it would say: "Do you know which fungi are edible and which are not?"
There's some risk for you.
