Hawkfrost (Alt. DF) ~ For Approval
I'm seeing these blanks everywhere now Jayie I love them so much! 01:09, June 13, 2015 (UTC)

Lighten the shading, please.

Blur the overall shading some more. It still looks a bit too hard-edged. 16:45, June 14, 2015 (UTC)

Soften the texture more on the tail. 23:58, June 14, 2015 (UTC)

Re-ups 09:53, June 15, 2015 (UTC)

I think the shading is still a little hard edged. Btw I don't think two highlight points (well, explaining) are needed on the shoulder...? Might be wrong :P I love his belly  S i l v e r m i s t i e   Dream it   Back to Future✼   01:01, June 17, 2015 (UTC)

It looks like your shading is coming from the right, so remove all the shading along the top of the back and add it onto the belly, behind the legs, and directly behind where the shoulder ends. Cover all of the tail in shading, as well, except for the very top, which is lined up with the slope of the back. Nice job! 02:09, June 18, 2015 (UTC)

Re-ups – I completely redid the shading, but I didn't exactly understand what you meant by the tail shading. I also got rid of the texture as it seemed to make the shading look more hard-edged than it is 06:06, June 20, 2015 (UTC)

The whole tail besides the top should be shaded (the right side too). The shading still looks a little hard edged though. Can you blur it a little more? 13:44, June 20, 2015 (UTC)

Blur the shading more please. ~ Sunstream ☽☾ Was it   ME?  15:41, June 24, 2015 (UTC)

'''Reuploaded, not sure if I made the shading too dark or not. 18:57, June 15, 2015 (UTC)'''

It is a little on the dark side, tbh. Maybe lighten it just a slight bit? Smooth out the shading a little more as well. Nice :)  00:40, June 16, 2015 (UTC)

Define your light source, it looks a bit like there's shading all around the outline 06:48, June 16, 2015 (UTC)

Could you define the light on the legs? Also, the chest, back leg and tail end shading looks a little grey. Might I suggest tinting the shading to a colour other than grey, such as blue? It'll make it look less grey. 21:12, June 16, 2015 (UTC)

Blur the earpink. 18:09, June 17, 2015 (UTC)

If the shading is coming from directly above, more of the tail would be in shadow and there would be less shadow defining the top of the shoulder. Also remove the shading separating the tail from the rump, if that's the case. If it's coming from the right, add even more shading to the entire tail-most of the body would be blocking all of it out! Fantastic job on dealing with the white cat, though, because I still can't do them. 02:08, June 18, 2015 (UTC)

Something came up so I won't be able to access my computer and reup the pic till Wednesday. Is that alright? I'm so sorry I can't get it up till then. 01:49, June 21, 2015 (UTC)

Perhaps define shading overall especially the tail?

Pretty much the entire lower half of the tail should be in shadow if your light's still coming from right above! 02:31, June 28, 2015 (UTC) Do you mind lightening the tail tip some? I know its shading, but it looks very dark. 22:50, June 28, 2015 (UTC)

Re-uploaded Thanks ^^ 09:48, June 15, 2015 (UTC)

Can you blur the shading a little bit more, dull down the texture some more as well, and add some shading between her front legs on her underbelly? Storm &#9835;  14:27, June 15, 2015 (UTC)

Why would she need more shading on her front paws and underbelly? She has enough there. I think you should lighten the shading a little more. 17:45, June 18, 2015 (UTC)

No, between the front legs on her underbelly. There'd be just shadow there, and there's not really enough. Storm &#9835;  20:48, June 18, 2015 (UTC)

I'm really sorry, but I agree that it is fine. There is shading there, and there's no less than there is on a bunch of other images. 21:11, June 18, 2015 (UTC)

Storm. The underbelly is approximately 3 pixels wide, and 5 pixels long. It does not need that much shading. 00:05, June 20, 2015 (UTC)

I'm not sure if texture needs to match, but the texture on her apprentice image is more dense :P

Oh, is it just me, or are her eyes torquoize (green)?

They do look sort of turquoise, but I compared them to the apprentice's eyes and they seem to be the same color. So I think it's ok 15:03, June 30, 2015 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but he really doesn't look dark gray at all. This seems like more of a neutral shade. Also, he's supposed to have black stripes, and these don't look black at all...his images only appear darker on his warrior imho because of the shading...

Nah, it doesn't sound stupid at all - I know, "main body" is real vague. It is mainly leaking where the main body meets this <--- side of <--- foreleg. It is also leaking a little bit along the bottom of the main body - just zoom in on that area because there are a few places it's leaking just a little.

Darkstripe (DF Alt2) - For Approval
Okay, so for those who don't know, the stripes on a black tabby are actually supposed to be lighter than the base (which means I need to redo Crowtail one of these days), so if you're seeing light stripes, this is intentional and I didn't mess up. The eyes, ears, and mouth are the exact same thing as his silver tabby alt, which was just approved.

Beautiful. Can you define the shading a bit? 02:29, June 26, 2015 (UTC)

Can you be a bit more specific and tell me where you'd like the shading defined, if you don't mind?

Like, the main body? 02:37, June 26, 2015 (UTC)

Re-uploaded. Alrighty.

Could you possibly define the earpink just a tad? I know its there, but I literally cant see it. Maybe shift the color to a brighter shade of the one you used, or raise its opacity? 08:18, June 29, 2015 (UTC)

Re-uploaded. My ear pink is always on full opacity- it was just a darker color.

I'm sorry to even bring this up but can you add a little depth in the teeth? lmao I know. Maybe also in the eye? This is a beautiful tom XD

As I used the eyes and teeth directly from my alt, I'd rather not. It's kinda hard to show depth when you have...what? Four pixels that aren't even right next to each other??

Re-uploaded With this source, there wouldn't be much light on the tail. I added as much as I could without contradicting the light source. Did this make any difference? 11:51, June 30, 2015 (UTC)

I can already tell you that given your source, the entire tail needs to be in shadow. If the light is coming from the front of the cat, then you'll need to basically shade the entire tail and have darker shading to show depth.

Re-upped Those were mottled marks 10:34, June 27, 2015 (UTC)

Darken the highlight on the tail more; your light source wouldn't leave any light on the tail due to the body being in front of it. Be sure to leave some even darker shading around the edges though, to still portray depth. 15:50, June 27, 2015 (UTC)

Re~Upped I didn't blur it yet, because that is not how it looks in the apprentice. Sorrel did you smudge or blur the shading?

I'm fairly certain it was smudged on the apprentice, so if you want to smudge your shading, would you mind smudging it more? 15:57, June 28, 2015 (UTC)

I used smudging - a 1px brush, with quite large, circular smudging, so that some of the shading smears spread onto the non-shaded areas, if you get what I mean - that's what gives it's it's 'texture' look. 16:18, June 28, 2015 (UTC)

Brokenstar (Alt.DF) ~ For Approval
Credit to Burntclaw for the lineart, although I had to make some changes. This is the black alt, as he is called black in Fading Echoes. I used the colour off the elder alt and tried to copy the scars best I could off the Dark Forest image. 22:45, June 27, 2015 (UTC)

I see no tear. Storm &#9835;  15:08, June 28, 2015 (UTC)

If you look closely, you can see that the upper part of the ear (on our screen) is jagged rather than straight, which I assume is the tear. I think the dark base just makes it hard to see. 15:14, June 28, 2015 (UTC)

Define the shading on all four legs. 22:46, June 28, 2015 (UTC)

Reupload I added another tear on his ear, to make it a tad more obvious. I promise there is three tears, and the other ear tip is not there. I've darkened his main colour, but they'll mean the elder alt will need to be darkened. 10:10, June 29, 2015 (UTC)

I actually think that if he's black, he should be darkened more. 09:26, June 30, 2015 (UTC)

I second that. ^ Don't be afraid to go dark when you make black cats, honestly. And given that this source has a lot of lighter areas, going darker is a better idea.

Define the shading some more? 12:45, July 1, 2015 (UTC)

Define the shading on the front legs a tad. This. Is. gorgeous. ~Skiddley Riddley ♫ ♪ 02:11, July 1, 2015 (UTC)

I think the shading is fine there imo, but possibly add some shading depth to the main body and head? 02:27, July 1, 2015 (UTC)

There's also a black patch of fur that is between the eyes on all the chararts. I think you may have missed that 02:49, July 1, 2015 (UTC)

Can you lighten the shading just a bit? It's making her look darker than she should be.

She's a pure beauty :o Imho her patches kind of are smaller and more spot-like on her other images? I'm not sure about this. I know it's her other side, but a cat wouldn't have differently "formatted" patches on each sides. Anyways, there should be a black patch on her cheek below/beside the ginger patch as there is on her StarClan. (so picky XP)

I'll fix that in a second, but could you elaborate on that? Like, how are they more spot like and smaller? 13:30, July 2, 2015 (UTC)

This probably is warranted as I read through the old archives... Anyway, is this mottled enough or dark enough? XD

re-ups made him more mottled-like
