Mudfur (Alt W) ~ For Approval


Very good! The tail tip shouldn't be entirely covered and the mottles are sharper on the alt star. -- 02:44, August 29, 2019 (UTC)

Also you should add a little fleck of white in each eye for eye reflections. Looking cute though Fire! Moo (talk) 03:29, August 29, 2019 (UTC)

Sure, I'll add the fleck and take some of the stuff off the tail tip. But what do you mean by the mottles being "sharper"? 03:56, August 29, 2019 (UTC)

I think Greenflower means that the mottles need to have a bit less blurry. Have a look at his other alts and especially the starclan alt for a reference. Moo (talk) 06:14, August 29, 2019 (UTC)

Woah, nicely done. Could you define the depth in the shading and darken it just a tad? ​​

Thank you! Yep, I get it now, I'll do them all soon, sometime tomorrow morning (Oz time). 06:48, August 29, 2019 (UTC)

Reuploaded. How does this look? 23:32, August 29, 2019 (UTC)

Better. The nosepink is darker on the other images, and the mottles on the tail tip look more broken up on the alt star. Add more shading to the shoulder and chest, and smooth it out as well. Lastly, define the shading depth (add a thinner, darker layer of shading). -- 00:33, August 30, 2019 (UTC)

on the tail tip, there shouldnt be any lighter mottles, as well as the mottles in general need to be smaller and more spanned out. 01:34, 8/30/2019

also adding on, sorry, but the mottles need to be sharper still. They're a lil too blurry 01:34, 8/30/2019

They lost their drawing pen. I believe it is Vec who gave them an extension Moo (talk) 00:12, September 6, 2019 (UTC)

Reuploaded. Yeah, sorry for the long wait, like Moo said I lost my pen and Vec (may have been Jayce I can't remember) gave me an extension. I didn't want to put it off any longer so I did it with a keyboard. Anyway, I did all the suggestions (or most) that you guys said, what do you think?

Looking good Firespring! Hmm, curve the shading on the haunch more (let me know if you need a redline) and there's waste outside the tail. The coloring on the nosepink and mottles are still a little off (nose should be #1b1411, the mottles should be #493522). -- 23:45, September 6, 2019 (UTC)

Reuploaded. How about now?

You're getting there! I think the shading could be smoothed a bit, and the mottles look sharper on the alt star (try running a low opacity sharpen tool or a low sharpen filter on the mottles, beware of color pixels). You could also use a low opacity pencil and draw over the mottles, which will make them sharper as well. -- 00:12, September 7, 2019 (UTC)

Add some shading to the <-- ear. 00:23, September 7, 2019 (UTC)

Reuploaded. How about now? Also, there already is shading on the ear. 00:28, September 7, 2019 (UTC)

Is it me, or am I seeing texture on the image? If it's texture, it needs to be removed as the alt star doesn't have any. -- 00:31, September 7, 2019 (UTC)

I feel as if this doesn't quite match the pattern placement of the queen's tail, which is what it should most reflect since both are on the same definite side; vs, the star is angled and thus not the best to match this blank to

Squirrel (cat) (Ki) - For Evaluation
Okay since sombody is working on Moon I rebranded by Charart as Squirrel since they're also gray.Bluedragon64 (talk) 22:18, September 6, 2019 (UTC)

Darken the earpink a bit, since it looks too magenta and not a natural gray color. The shading needs to be defined a bit as well. And remember, don't thumb your images! Just go into source and remove the |thumb from the file name. There is a lot of waste around the character so make sure to remove that, and make sure "For Evaluation" is in the title. Sorry if this is lot to you -- 22:20, September 6, 2019 (UTC)

Reuploaded! Bluedragon64 (talk) 23:32, September 6, 2019 (UTC)

Darken the earpink a lot more and expand it. The shading is far too overblurred, probably as a result of Gaussian Blur (which is not recommended as it causes shading to leak), so it could be sharpened some, retrace it with a 4px paintbrush or pencil and smudge it with a 6-10px brush at 40% strength. The lineart is also overblurred, to fix just erase on your shading layers, and the blurriness will be gone. -- 23:34, September 6, 2019 (UTC)

What kind of shading should I use to shade my Charart? Bluedragon64 (talk) 13:42, September 7, 2019 (UTC)

Most people use blurred, smudged, or drawn-on shading. A small other note - please change the earpink to something a little less purple/neony.

Reupoladed! Bluedragon64 (talk) 12:44, September 8, 2019 (UTC)

Remember, don't thumb your images. Just go into source editor and remove the |left. Another way to avoid this is to upload from Squirrel (cat).kit.png instead of going back and doing the posting process again. Also, you have a extra .png in the file name so remove that.

As for the image, the earpink is still neon, darken it or desaturate it some. It also needs expanding quite a bit. Define your light source- where is the light coming from? The shading needs to be expanded everywhere except the chest, and smoothed out a lot. Also, add a thinner, darker layer of shading so the image has some depth. -- 12:53, September 8, 2019 (UTC)

How do define your light source? Bluedragon64 (talk) 14:19, September 8, 2019 (UTC)

If you need help with a light source I'd recommend checking the apprentice tutorials, since they were recently updated with new sources =) -- 14:21, September 8, 2019 (UTC)

I'm consulting a Gimp apprentence totorial for shading. But I don't know what it means when the tortorial tells me to draw the bits with penicl  "where the image is in shadow". Can u plz explain what that means? Bluedragon64 (talk) 20:58, September 8, 2019 (UTC)

A light source is where the light and shading are supposed to be on an image. Say if the light source was ^, the shading would be on the back, and if down it would be on the flank more. Does this help? -- 21:00, September 8, 2019 (UTC)

Still working?

Yes but I'm preoccupied with school and homeworj which is more important. So I'm currently on a bit of a haitus sorry! Bluedragon64 (talk) 23:40, September 12, 2019 (UTC)

When you get back, smooth, define and darken the shading. There's some waste by the ear. Make the earpink a grayish-pinkish color, and this is optional, but if you want, add eyeshine. 19:12, September 15, 2019 (UTC)

Make sure to say reuploaded on the approval page when you make changes to an image! Now recede the shading some, smooth it out a lot, and erase the shading on the top of the head and tail. -- 21:32, September 15, 2019 (UTC)

Also like to add one that you need to say reuploaded down here, not up in the title. -- 23:59, September 15, 2019 (UTC)

The shading needs to be lightened. But I'm confused where us the light source? Moo (talk) 22:56, September 7, 2019 (UTC)

The light source is something similar to this. With this source there would be a tiny bit of light on < this back leg, near the toe line. -- 02:06, September 8, 2019 (UTC)

Soften the stripes a bit, please. I actually blurred them a bit when I made his pattern. ​​​​​​

Re-uploaded blurred them

I feel like the stripe style does not match. It seems like for the other images, and this is what I did for his tunneler, that a rounded brush was used with minimal tapering to the ends (I used an airbrush if I recall correctly). Here they seem too sketch-like and uneven. 18:44, September 12, 2019 (UTC)

Re-uploaded

I've gotta say, that I'm thinking Vec's comment still stands a bit. She's right, I used a rounded brush, and these stripes still look too squared off. I'm sorry, this was one of my favorite sets of mine and I'm so nitpicky about it ;;;; ​​​

Given the source, I think adding a bit of shading at the base of the chest, and at the top of the haunch, wouldn't be remiss. Would help those areas from not looking flat

the apprentice has texture, and has some very faint highlights too.
