You have to match this image. Also, please define the shading. 16:36, June 5, 2016 (UTC)

Re-uploaded (Do you mean making the fur more scruffy? Because in his warrior image, it wasn't like that)

No, I don't think the kit image would need ragged fur, but what you do need to match is the color and texture. Lighten the shading as well. 16:47, June 5, 2016 (UTC)

Re-Uploaded (Worked on the color and shading, but still wondering what tool to use to get the texture)

Can you lighten the eyes some? They look kinda black... Also, the other images are somewhat tinted blue if that gives you a hint.

Re-uploaded (Fixed the eyes, nose, ears, and lightened color, then shaded. Idk how to tint it, but I'll try to do it)

Define the texture, smooth the shading and lightened it. 18:51, June 5, 2016 (UTC)

Could you make the base match a little better?

Re-Uploaded (Redid it so things wouldn't be as complicated, but if it's fine the way it was before, I'll revert it)

The eyes should be more of an orange colour, they look dark brown atm. On (our) right front leg the shading looks slightly blotchy, so could you blur it some more? Blur the earpink and for the texture, if you have an airbrush tool (or similar, I'm not sure which art program you use), use that. I'm terrible at explaining, sorry, so try the apprentice tutorials. 23:07, June 8, 2016 (UTC)

Re-uploaded (I use Pixlr by the way)

The eyes are still too dark compared to the other images

Re-uploaded

On the other images, the "spots" that make up the texture appear to be smaller and more smudged. Define the tail shading as well. Also, idk if it's just me, but the earpink seems a bit bright. 20:16, June 10, 2016 (UTC)

Re-uploaded

The shading on this still needs to be tinted blue like the other images

I don't know how to do that

When you use black which i assume you're using to put shading on the image, use blue instead. That's the most simple way, and it has to be done as it gives off a certain effect

It doesn't work in Pixlr...I tried. 21:35, June 10, 2016 (UTC)

It does work in Pixir, my friend uses that program and she's made many chararts for different places with many different shading tints. There's some apprentice tutorials on shading tints if you need help, as well as many Pixir online forums

Does shading tint actually have to match -- I thought matching it wasn't mandatory, but I'm not sure. Anyway, the texture spots could still be made smaller and smudged. Right now they look like patches, not texture. 22:08, June 10, 2016 (UTC)

The tint does have to match on this particular one at least... this also came up last time this image was being worked on. Said here

Wait. Which tool did your friend use for the tints; I use Burn Tool -- 22:53, June 10, 2016 (UTC)

My friend was working on this same image actually lol. She had 2 different shading layers, one black like regular and one blue then she just smudged it, no burn tool

Re-uploaded (Tried out the tint)

Define the shading. Also, the lineart is missing or blurred in some spots (specifically on the tail and legs). 17:09, June 12, 2016 (UTC)

Re-uploaded -- 16:48, June 13, 2016 (UTC)

Define the texture and can you smooth out the shading on the tail. 19:10, June 14, 2016 (UTC)

Re-uploaded --

I'm pretty sure there is a rule in PCA saying that people who critique need to tell the artist how to fix their image instead of just telling them to do whatever. Anyway, the first problem with your image is that there are a lot of random blue patches on the image, which shouldn't be there. You could remove the patches by either removing the layer that has them, or use the same shade of gray as the texture to cover the patches up, then smudge (recommended as the loner's texture appears to be smudged) the gray.

Speaking of shading, it appears to be over-blurred and covers up the texture, which is mandatory on this image as you have an image to match. If you aren't using layers then I strongly suggest you use them (if you are using GIMP, the layer window is supposed to be on the right side of the screen), and put the shading on a different layer, that way, when you blur/smudge the shading, it won't interfere with the texture (which should be on another layer, below the shading). There are two options I suggest you to do. The first option is to use the sharpen tool (it's the same as the blur tool, but you must tick "sharpen") and go over the edges of the shading, and blur slightly as needed. I don't recommend this as sharpening will usually create undesirable pixels on the screen which can be very annoying to remove. An easier method would be to redo the shading on a different layer. When you blur the shading, be sure to use a smaller brush and blur the edges only, as blurring the whole thing will only cause the shading to leak away from the linear art. If you are using tint, don't use neon blue, use a very dark blue color.

The final problem with your image is that the texture is over-blurred and doesn't match the loner image. Personally I don't know how the texture was done as I wasn't the artist of the loner image, so an option would be to ask the original artist of that image on their talk page.

I'm sorry for posting so much. And if I came across as rude in anyway, I deeply apologize! If you need any clarification, don't be afraid to send a message on my talk page. I'll be very glad to help you. :)  ❄ Blossomstream White Christmas  04:47, June 17, 2016 (UTC)

The tail looks too blue to me, maybe dull it down a little?Stealth f🔥re ❤Warriors Forever!❤  08:39, June 24, 2016 (UTC)

Declines due to lack of work. Sorry.

Comments? 16:47 Wed Jun 15 Lighten him up considerably, as he wasn't this dark in the book. Good job! 17:55, June 15, 2016 (UTC)

Reuploaded Thanks! This is as light as I will go. Any lighter and the white is almost indistinguishable /: Goodbye little Tallstar clone ;_; 18:28 Wed Jun 15

Define the facial shading -- 02:11, June 16, 2016 (UTC)

Could you blend the haunch shading some? 01:10 Fri Jun 17

Reuploaded 18:45 Fri Jun 17


 * nudges* I almost managed to forget I even had an image up lol. 13:27 Wed Jun 22

Do you think you could lighten the shading a tad on the far --> side? 14:39 Wed Jun 22

And can you lighten the shading on the tail and far back leg? Jayie Unwritten words~ 19:53, June 24, 2016 (UTC)

Reuploaded 19:15 Sat Jun 25

You can't have this, plus two redone deputies. You can have one new image and one redone deputy, or two redone deputies, but you can't have three total images on the approval page at once. You'll have to make a choice between this, Mudclaw, or Leopardstar.

Honestly, this image with the shading is not working out right now. I have messed around with it in 50 different ways and cannot get it to look right without being too intense but still detailed enough in the right places. Withdrawing. 19:51 Sat Jun 25

Ooooooh, me like. Could you define the facial shading slightly, please?  17:47 Sat Jun 25 

reuploaded 19:41, June 25, 2016 (UTC)

Nice. :) Would you mind shading a little more on the back of the neck? Jayie  Unwritten words~ 03:44, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Pinestar (D) - For Approval
I love Pinestar so much. All colors from the previous deputy image, which was colorpicked from the leader one.

Nice. :) Define the shading between the shoulder and the elbow on his side? Jayie  Unwritten words~ 03:46, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Crookedstar (D) ~ For Approval
Best leader, best book. I'll lighten shading next upload so don't comment on that pls  12:28 Sat Jun 25 

Crop the image to the lineart, please. =P

Oops  17:47 Sat Jun 25 

There's a tiny speck of waste next to his left ear

blegh waste  21:53 Sat Jun 25 

The stripes seem a tad bit sharper on his other images.

Reups  <span style="">07:44 Sun Jun 26 

The shading still seems too dark and not really matching what the base pelt looks like. The lighter arms don't match the hardness of my pattern. 03:32, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Mind erasing a bit of the shading on the right side of the neck, before the shading on the shoulder, if that makes sense? Jayie Unwritten words~ 04:09, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Lightningtail (D) - For Approval
Don't ask me to lighten the base; it ain't happening. It matches his other three images.

Define the tail shading, I can't see it. 18:41, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

I feel like the shading either needs to be darkened, or made sharper, if that makes sense, to make it stand out more. Jayie Unwritten words~ 04:10, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Wow, this looks amazing! :D I feel like the shading needs to be a little darker/just shade a little more on the bottom of the belly and the edge of the tail? Jayie Unwritten words~ 04:43, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Smooth out the shading and maybe thin it out on the paws. 00:50, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

HOLY FLUFF.  <span style="">15:54 Sat Jun 25 

I think there's a tiny speck of waste near his right ear

Reups Oops  <span style="">17:47 Sat Jun 25 

I love the lineart on this, especially on the tail. I feel like there needs to be more light on the belly though, it seems to be mostly shading. Jayie Unwritten words~ 04:45, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Milkfur (WC) ~ For Approval
Comments? 16:33, June 25, 2016 (UTC)

Crop the image to the lineart, please. Also possibly smooth out the shading, and I think it might be leaking by the haunch/stomach area, but I'm not entirely sure if that's true or if it's my eyes.

Reuploaded. 17:13, June 25, 2016 (UTC)

Could you define the tail shading please?  <span style="">07:47 Sun Jun 26 

Reuploaded. The whole tail was pretty much in the shading, so I defined the light. 13:41, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

Smooth out the shading a bit more. 14:49, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

Reuploaded. 19:11, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

Love. <span style="">22:15 Sat Jun 25

I highly doubt you'll need and/or want it, but would you like the file for the StarClan image? Not sure what good it'll do, but I figure I'll offer it anyways.

I will maybe have to take you up on that...I feel like the colors I have are a little bit off but I'm not exactly sure if that's because I don't have my glasses on right now or they really are. <span style="">03:18 Sun Jun 26

Define the shading more on the face and the right side of the belly? Jayie Unwritten words~ 05:05, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Firestar (D) - For Approval
Um ... I would really like some advice on this ... please. I'm so sorry, I tried but I just don't even. 23:14, June 25, 2016 (UTC)

Add more stripes  <span style="">07:46 Sun Jun 26 

The pale chest seems a bit hard-edged; could you smudge/blur it a little? <span style="">17:54 Sun Jun 26

Re-uploaded: I think I messed up the stripes. Should I redo them? 18:44, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

I think the stripes on the other images are a little thicker, and on the belly make them follow the curve of the belly more rather than being straight? Jayie Unwritten words~ 05:06, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Squirrelflight (D) - For Approval
I'd also like advice for this. 23:51, June 25, 2016 (UTC)

Make her tail bigger and fluffier. Can't tell the difference between it and the regular tails rn. This looks really nice though, tbh. <span style="">23:54 Sat Jun 25

Re-uploaded: Thanks berry! 04:28, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

Smudge the stripes a tad bit more and make the tail fur a tad longer close to the tip, maybe? I can redline the lines if you need.  <span style="">07:45 Sun Jun 26 

Re-uploaded: 18:45, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

Is it just me, or is the color a little too dull compared to the other images? Jayie Unwritten words~ 05:08, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Can you please reupload under File:Bluestar.deputy.png? Your original file has two .png's, so I renamed it, but please upload under this file name. 03:00, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure velvetmoon has already got this reserved. 03:20, June 26, 2016 (UTC) So, I should quit this and let velvetmoon take over? --Gardenglaze 04:18, June 26, 2016 (UTC)Gardenglaze

I apologise if this offends anyone. But I do have both Bluestar and Oakheart reserved. I will be posting the images soon. 15:05, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

Oakheart (D) - For Approval
This time I used MS paint to do the eyes so they don't look like crap. --Gardenglaze 05:13, June 26, 2016 (UTC)Gardenglaze

I'm fairly sure Velvet holds the reservation on this one as well I hope nobody has Stonefur reserved. --Gardenglaze 19:11, June 26, 2016 (UTC)Gardenglaze

Base is pure white. Also define the shading on both front legs.

Smooth out the shading a bit. 14:48, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

Shouldn't this have the longhaired blank? <span style="">17:21 Sun Jun 26

Darken the shading on the face? Jayie Unwritten words~ 05:10, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Stonefur (D) - For Approval
Let me guess, Velvet has this one reserved as well? --Gardenglaze 19:41, June 26, 2016 (UTC)Gardenglaze

No, but you should have it reserved on the reservation table, if you want to do this image. Jayie Unwritten words~ 05:12, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Fail 21:55, June 26, 2016 (UTC)

Smooth out the shading. 00:49, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

I think the shading is smooth enough. However, if you lighten it a few ticks, that might serve the same purpose.
