Kittypet Blanks - For Approval


I was messing around in the warriors wiki when I found many declined images so I put the Kittypet blanks for approval. Comments?--Yai-Girl 17:17, 20 July 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

Yai, these are Darkhallows' images. You need her permission to edit them, and also, o, Sandiwolf was working on them; they were just taken down due to black of work. -- Bramble My Realm 21:34, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Oops sorry.--Yai-Girl 15:39, 21 July 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

These had best be declined then until Darkhallows gives her permission to use the old blanks and until you sort it out with Sandiwolf. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 10:21, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Yai-girl can use them. I have attempted to revamp them to no avail. Maybe she can.-- Darkhallows Lair 17:54, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Alright then, back up for approval. Sandiwolf's were declined, and if she wants them back up, she and Yai can talk it out. There is a chances that one set can be used as rogues and the other as kittypets. (will add criticism when I have time) -- Bramble My Realm 16:00, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Kittypets are well-groomed. The fur on the lond-hairs are sticking out everywhere. I thought you weren't supposed to put cats in drying machines? -- MU MB LE 785  23:48, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Mumble, long-hairs are fluffy, know matter how "well-groomed" they are. Maybe make the hair a tad bit closer to the pelt, though. I love the collars. :)--Warrior♥ Warrior's Den 00:23, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Now, the lineart needs to be thicker, so as it goes with the other images. Instead of the tail being up, it would be better if it was curled around the paws, I think, and the ears need to be shrunk. The paws look slightly awkward too. I found this pic: click You could probably use it for reference. -- Bramble My Realm 20:53, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

I agree with everything Bramble. That pic made me laugh though. I would advise you not to make them quite that fat Yai! Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 16:13, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Well, hey, they are kittypets. lol but yeah, don't make them that fat Yai. -- Bramble My Realm 23:44, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

I have trouble making the long hairs fluffy can someone help me?--Yai-Girl 14:28, 29 July 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

Hre's another reference: <Warrior♥ Warrior's Den 16:23, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

I did the short hairs, how do they look?--Yai-Girl 19:03, 30 July 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

Looks great, but can you please make them a bit bigger? MaYbe the size of my Loner blanks on the bottom? Besides that I love them! The reason I want them to be bigger, is beacuse it's easier to add shading, blending, and smudging, and so we can see the colors and tabby stripes/dapple even better. Hawkfire ♫  Go Aggies! 22:33, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

How do you make the blanks bigger?--Yai-Girl 14:58, 31 July 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

Oh erm.. I don't know. Maybe ask somebody who is good at the computer? I had to redo my loner blanks to make them bigger :( Hawkfire ♫  Go Aggies! 15:17, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Okay. I have a couple of things:


 * 1) They are a little small but I'm not sure how to make them bigger (Moss might know as she did it for her prey-hunters)
 * 2) There doesn't seem to be much difference between the longhaired and shorthaired - make it clearer which have longer fur
 * 3) The heads are a little strange - they seem really... angular and the eyes are really off centre which looks odd
 * 4) The lineart on the inside of a couple of them still needs to be thickened.

Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 18:54, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

I thickened the lineart on the long hairs.--Yai-Girl 21:16, 1 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

I have a suggestion, try to make the tail on the longhears thicker so then we can tell the difference. --Spottedwing 16:46, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

thickened tails.--Yai-Girl 18:47, 2 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

Here´s a diagram, I had no problems with it, but it´s a small like Hawkfire and Sandy said.--Yai-Girl 10:59, 4 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

I don't know.... the style just doesn't seem right.... -- Dawnfeather talk! 09:52, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

What do you mean Dawn?--Yai-Girl 11:39, 6 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

They look rather cartoon-ish to me, and I honestly don't think they work very well. Please don't get me wrong - there is no offense intended, to either you, Yai-Girl, or Shady. -- Dawnfeather talk! 11:52, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

I can make them bigger, Yai, if that's alright with you. What Spottedwing meant when she said thicker tails wasn't the tail lineart, it was the size of the tail. As for the cartoonishness, I think their heads are the main problem. Their ears are at an awkward angle, and a bit big, and I think their heads just seem a bit wonky. But other than that, they seem like our other blanks. If you think about it Dawn, they're all cartoons... at least in the fact that they're drawn. -- Bramble My Realm 03:11, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Here are my horribble ears.--Yai-Girl 11:25, 12 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

The angle on the tails of the short hairs are bothering me. Make them more curved. I had the same problem. Also, I can barley tell the females from the males. Make the males coalars more maleish ( If that makes since ).Minnowclaw 11:48, 12 August 2009 (UTC)Minnowclaw

The right ear (Our right), looks smaller than the left ear, on the long-haired cats. Maybe make the right ears a bit bigger. Also, I agree with Minnowclaw; the males are hard to distinguish from the females. I think if you made the females' eyes a bit more "feminine", they'd look better. ;) -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 16:50, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

I made the ears bigger and fixed the tails.--Yai-Girl 09:40, 13 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

You're skipping over the make the females more feminine and the males more masculine. I think thickening their eye lineart, and making the female eyes look more feminine, and making a collar differenece would be better. -- Bramble My Realm 14:31, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

I made the females eyes more feminine, made the males lissence rounder rather than a heart shape like on the females, and I made the long hairs tails thiner.--Yai-Girl 15:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl



I made another Rusty... these blanks do work. They just need to be made bigger. Also I like how the tail comes from behind the body on the longhairs more than the other two. Make the shorthairs tails curve round exactly like longhairs. -- Bramble My Realm 19:59, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

I don't think they look right... they're very square on the shoulders and legs and the fur is all... tufty which makes them look like ungroomed kits. I think the fur for both the long and shorthaired needs to be sleeker as if it is well-groomed and the angle of the head is strange. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 10:22, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

It's not exactly looking at you; the head was made at a 3/4 angle. -- Blackclaw09 20:36, 14 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I agree with you, Sandy. I expressed that awhile ago, with the fur... But, yeah. Do as the loyal deputy said. -- MU MB LE 785 MAN-EATING KITTEHS! 18:29, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

I twicked the long-hairs I will do the short-hairs later.--Yai-Girl 23:09, 15 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

Where the leg is connected to the body there is an awkward looking pixel.-- Darkhallows Lair 17:25, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Here?--Yai-Girl 12:59, 19 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

They're so cute! Except, I think the long-hairs' tails need to be fluffier.  Jane Volturi Sparrowsong 17:08, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

I agree. Also, make the long-haired cats' back legs, a little fluffier. Very cute, Yai-Girl! -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 22:25, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

(M) - On the longhaired's, their paws are bigger than the shorthaired's - make them the size of the shorthaired's. Mosswhisker &amp; Steatlhfire  01:20, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Also, the ears need to be at least slightly more rounded. -- Dawnfeather talk! 09:58, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Also -
 * As I said before, the ears.
 * The mark showing the top of the head extends too far on that side in my opinioin. Maybe just shorten it a few pixels.
 * I know this bit was hard, but the she-cat's love-heart tag collar thingy's shape needs to be refined a bit.
 * The one next to the question mark - I don't know maybe just tweak that little area with the hindleg a bit - it didn't look quite right to me but it will be fine if you don't edit it.
 * The thing that bugs me most about these images - how at that point there with the arrows and diagrams coming from it the line doesn't change from vertical-pixel-coloumn-thingy to the other gradually, but *wup!* it's here, and then *wup!* it's there. Just add in a few other pixels to make it less, sudden. I'm sorry if I seem harsh - I just want to help you get this image approved so tweak week can come.! -- Dawnfeather talk! 10:15, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Here are he short hairs, I will try to edit the long hairs but it's pretty hard.--Yai-Girl 12:39, 24 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

Here are the worst long hairs on the planet.--Yai-Girl 15:46, 24 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

I'm not sure what happened, but I made this back into an editable topic. The only thing still bugging me a bit would be the female tags on the collars. Other than that, these are really nice, I think. (:-- Quiet !... 18:07, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

I think the long hairs look pretty good. The female tags on the collars look different between the long hairs and the short hairs, the one on the short hair looks more like a heart, while the one on the long hair looks more square-ish at the top. (it is supposed to be a heart, right?) Otherwise, everything looks great! Icethroat21 Hi, how's the prey running? 20:54, 24 August 2009 (UTC)



(M) - Here's a diagram for the collars. :) Mosswhisker &amp; Steatlhfire  23:16, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

Here are the collars.--Yai-Girl 12:35, 25 August 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

They look great! -- Rain whisker 09 14:37, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Why didn't someone just ask if they could touch up the Kittypet blanks Sandiwolf made that were close to approval? I liked the position on those... these are really good too, although they need to be enlarged... I like the fur on the longhairs though. --♫ insaneular ♫ 15:27, September 1, 2009 (UTC)

These havent been worked on in a week i know i cant put a decline notice up but it hasnt been worked on. --Stonestar 21:20, September 1, 2009 (UTC)Stonestar

But no ones commented soo... Anyway, one ear is longer than the other (on the longhairs) and the tag is a little too big-- Darkhallows Lair 02:47, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

The reason the ear is longer is cause the head is facing to one side. If it was both the same size, it would look like one ear shrunk. But I agree, the tags are a bit big. -- Rain whisker 09 15:28, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

Actually, the other ear should be longer. I didn't see the image. If you don't want to re-draw the ears, you could put the longer ear on the right side and the shorter ear on the left side. -- Rain whisker 09 15:31, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

(M) - If the head is at a 3/4th angle, it would need to look like this:

Mosswhisker &amp; Steatlhfire 21:56, September 2, 2009 (UTC)


 * I've just worked out exactly what it is about these that I'm not sure about. They look very pixelated, sqaure. like those pixels you can find online... they don't exactly look like real cats. I think you need to make the bigger, round the shoulders off a little and generally make all he lineart a bit smoother to make them look more realistic and in line with our other approved blanks. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 08:32, September 5, 2009 (UTC)

I will try to make them look like real cats later. Comments?--Yai-Girl 11:38, September 5, 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

I wanted to have a try at them so I tried one: I think it looks fine, but yes, make them more cat-like*Swallowtip * EMBRACE THE TIP! 01:48, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

I can make them bigger, if you want. And should the nose be black or pink? -- Rain whisker 09 15:20, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

I agree with everything said above. Also, keep the noses white. We can color them in pink (As we do with the queen blanks). If anyone disagrees with me, then I think the noses should be black, rather than pink. But, very nice, Yai-Girl! -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 17:43, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Feathertail- Redone


Hey Hawkfire here! I just got finished with her. (really sorry Shimmer!) I fixed her ear pink and her eye, and lightened the shading on her tail. I can't get the old pic of the oringinal Feathertail! I accidently uploaded it with the same name. Somebody help please. Hawkey  Ready for action 13:34, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

The ear needs to be blended more.--Stonestar 13:35, 30 August 2009 (UTC)Stonestar

Something looks funky about the way it was blended- I mean from the original, not what you did. I'm not sure if it's because the lines got smudged in or they just had a weird shading style, but I think you should go over the shading a bit and then reblur it.Same for the tabby markings, they look a bit strange, so maybe if you went over them in the same color then blurred them again that would work. --♫ insaneular ♫ 15:09, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Very good, but I believe Feathertail should be long-haired. It's because a. she's RiverClan; they generally have thick fur and b. she was said to have a feathery/fluffy tail.  Sparrowsong Madly Blooming Princess 17:57, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Insanular, umm...wow I am not sure I can do all of that. The tabby stripes look amazing and the shading is great to me. I will change her to a long hair, even tho I never imagined her that way. Silverstream is short hair, and she's from RiverClan. If I did have to change her to long-hair, I would have to redo the whole image. Do you really want me to do that? Hawkey  Ready for action 19:49, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

I could change her to a long-hair if you want, with oly minor edits..-- Darkhallows Lair 20:22, 30 August 2009 (UTC)


 * You wont exactly have to redo her all the way. The technique I use is past the image in paint and color the lineart white. Then take the lineart of the long hair and past it over, with white being transparent and you just have to remove the eye out of the other image. The only problem is you will have to add more coloring to the tail area and the chest.-- Shim-Shim New Gladiator! 20:27, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Shady that would be very kind of you! Now all I have to do is mess with the ear pink. :)Thanks so much! Hawkey  Ready for action 21:46, September 1, 2009 (UTC)

You may need to work on the tail but here.-- Darkhallows Lair 07:04, September 4, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks so much! She's gorgeous! I will fix the shading on the tail and blend the ear pink, then she should be good to go!! Hawkey  Ready for action 23:23, September 4, 2009 (UTC)

Well its 11:52 where I am, so its only 8 minutes until we can put up images again, So I thougt: what the heck, tweak weak will be over by the time they see this anyway.

The image: I followed what it said on her description. Although I don't remeber the tabby striped tail... Mossflight 06:59, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

I think you should make the tail look more like it has patches, not stripes. Also, blend the patches more.Minnowclaw 13:40, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

umm, i kinda already saved spottedleaf so i could make her sorry.Shim-Shim ★ 15:37, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Okay. If Shimmersong did reserve her then please withdraw this. Can people please start taking note of the reservations? This is the second image I've had to say this to today. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 17:04, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry Shimmersong, I didn't see your reservation. I will just simply turn it into... Redtail.

And blend the patches more. And you will need some black patches for a tortie, and the Redtail image has more redish ginger patches than this.

Okay, you just need to take away the things that are specific to Spottedleaf now, such as the darker eye fur and stripd tail. I'd add more patches and make them more irregularly shaped, blend them together more too. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 18:14, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

OK my Fist try so tell me what is not right Brambleclaw14 <font color="Red">Talk 08:32, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Hi Brambleclaw, that's really good for a first try! Lol, you just barely beat me to putting up the first rogue for approval ever, since the blanks are fairly new, but... XD I can only see a few things you need to change: First, you need shading. It looks like you might have a little, but you need much more. Just decide where your light source is and then figure out where the highlights and shadows would fall. Next, this isn't necessary, but you might want to make the fur slightly off white, because in reality cats aren't perfectly white. Then, the spots. I really like your arrangement, but make a few of them different sizes so it looks a bit more natural. Then, just take the Blue tool (almost every image program has one) and go over all of the color- but don't blur the lines! I know this can sound like a lot to take in, but trust me, that is really good for a first try. <font color="lime" style="background:Black">♫ insaneular ♫ Down at Fraggle Rock! 12:24, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Is it just me or is the picture stretched? Also, it looks as if you put shading but in a cream color. You don't want that color for shading. What I recommend for shading is making the cat slightly less white and then taken the burn tool and going over it a lot of times until you can see and differentiate what is shading and what is pelt, but don't forget to blend.<span style="font-family:Tempus Sans ITC; color;silver; background:darkblue; border:2px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:silver;">*Swallowtip * EMBRACE THE TIP! 13:46, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

It does look stretched. I'm going with Swallowtip on this one. Try making the cat fur a little more grayer, and use the burn tool all over the belly and the chest. -- Rain whisker 09 15:13, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

 * Add shading and blend it, making it look real
 * Blend the ear pink and make it darker, it looks fluro
 * Add highlights on the pelt

Hawkey  Ready for action 17:22, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I can't see any shading, add some and use the blur tool to make his pelt seem for 3-D.

They're right. Make the ear pink a triangle shape in the centre of the ear and blend a little. Despite what Hawke said above, don't add highlights until you've got the shading sussed as it'll make it more difficult and the image may not even need them. Get the shading and ear sorted and then see about highlights. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 18:23, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

I'm not really good at shading, either, but what I did was get the smudge tool, set the brush size to about 3 or 5, and then just smudge from the outline. (I did this in Pixlr.) And then I blurred it together by clicking on the blur tool and setting it to about 3-5. As I said, I'm not really sure about the best shading tips, but maybe that can help a little bit. Also, I noticed a couple of other things.

Icethroat21 Hi, how's the prey running? 00:11, September 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * The right ear is just a little bit darker than the rest of his fur.

The shading is blended to 100%, and gray cats have gray noses (gray cat) I will change the eye though.--[[User:Darkhallows| Darkhallows] My den 23:28, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

So many rogues up! I guess we all like out-of-clan cats. He looks a little silver as opposed to brown.-- Darkhallows My den 10:04, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

I've purposely made the shading weird, well, rather the highlighting, because maybe he went to see a moonstone or an intense light on the ground during his time as a rogue as he was prophecised to lead ShadowClan.

I <3 this :) I like the second image best... the one thing bothering me is that he's a dark brown tabby tom, and this really is kinda light... can you darken it a little maybe, without losing the great shading and highlights? Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 19:52, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Wow, I love the sahding style on this! I think the second one's the best. Just darken it like Sandy suggested. Mosswhisker &amp; Steatlhfire 23:16, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Heh, seeing her name makes me think of the dandelion stems I ate as a little kid (don't ask). She's very pretty. Though I think the chest shading could use some work (I've been online for like.. 7 hours now xD, so glad a new image is up).-- Darkhallows My den 10:03, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

But I am asking. (Nah, lol don't worry. I used to eat little bean type things out of prickles. My friend told me that if I ate three I would gorw invisible fairy wings.

Mentor/Apprentice program question
I seem to be having some trouble with it. Neither of my apprentices seem to be active (or at least, they haven't messaged me back). What happens if, say, an apprentice does not come on for a month or so?-- Darkhallows My den 10:13, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

I have been wondering the same thing myself for a while (okay, two weeks. Whatever) Brambleberry is my apprentice but I haven't seen her in ages. --<span style="font-family:Tempus Sans ITC; color;Orange; background:LightBlue; border:1px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Orange;"> Dawnfeather talk! 10:26, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah my mentor Goldencloud hasen't been on in like 2 months. --Stonestar 11:50, September 8, 2009 (UTC)Stonestar

Maybe you could switch mentors so you would have an active apprentice. For example, Dawnfeather could have Stonestar, and any other apprentice with an inactive mentor could be apprenticed to Darkhollows. Just a suggestion. -- Rain whisker 09 12:26, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Actually, I would suggest (assuming this is alright with Bramble, of course) that as I have one active apprentice and today is the first time I have spoken to him all week about the stuff we have been doing together (or rather, should have been doing together) because I have a very unbalanced life in the way of busy-ness. For a month I may have hardly any homework at all and then I get a huge chunk and I can't be active for a week or two. Until I can get this more balanced, I tihnk that just the one active apprentice would actually be better for me at the moment. Darky however has no active apprentices and she obviously would like one, so I suggest, if that is okay with everyone, that Stonestar and Darky at least temporaliy partner up for this program. Sorry for rambling. It's just the way I do things. =D --<span style="font-family:Tempus Sans ITC; color;Orange; background:LightBlue; border:1px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Orange;"> Dawnfeather talk! 12:47, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

I think I have most or all of the requirements to be a mentor for GIMP... I have 6 approved cats (if re-done cats count?) and I know how to do shading, eyes, and tabby markings. Of course, it's for Bramble and Sandy to decide if I'm ready, but if they say yes, and if you use GIMP (I don't know what program you were asking for) I might be able to do it... <font color="lime" style="background:Black">♫ insaneular ♫ Down at Fraggle Rock! 19:11, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

I'd be happy to mentor anyone who uses GIMP (as I don't have any other programs). -- Darkhallows My den 00:28, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

I'm glad you brought this up, Shady. I've been thinking about it, and it does seem to be a slight problem. My own apprentice, Boltstar, hasn't been on a while. I think 2 weeks should be the inactivity limit, then the mentor's assigned a new, more active apprentice. If the former comes back, then they'll have to wait a bit. I know that seems harsh, especially as sometimes it's related to homework and personal issues and such, but if the active user is waiting, they should have it, so everyone gets trained faster. I'll keep an eye from now on the inactive and active members, and those members who are pending apprentices. Going to do it now; hopefully, myh connection will stay till then... -- Bramble My Realm 03:04, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I will sort more things out tomorrow. Insane, I don't have a problem with you becoming a mentor. We need some more, so it'd be very welcome, and you'd be good at it. That fine with you, Sandy? Switched one of your inactive apprentices out, Shady, and gave you Stonestar to mentor. Swallowtip, I'd rather like to mentor you, if that's alright? You seemed to want Shady as a mentor, but I liked the idea of having you as my apprentice. :) I can work something out if you'd rather have her. Other things will be sorted tomorrow. -- Bramble My Realm 03:28, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, the scar looks strange, you should blend it a little bit, add some more shading and then blur it, otherwise......it looks okay. --<span style="font-family:Tempus Sans ITC; color;aqua; background:silver; border:1px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:aqua;"> Peacesong Click Here To Go To........My Talk Page 22:43, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Reuploaded! Okay, what else can I do to improve? I feel like I went crazy on the shading, and that the scar is too big, but I'm not really sure how to make it any smaller without destroying some of the shading, or the scar itself.

Alright, since no one has said anything yet, can I just ask about the shading? I think I got it too dark, and I'm thinking if I could have gone without the highlights or not... Icethroat21 Hi, how's the prey running? 21:07, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Whoops, sorry. Lighten the shading, as it is pretty dark right now, and try making the scar a little shorter, just past the edge of your image. Also, make the eye more like the other approved warrior's eyes. Then we'll work on shading. ;) Mosswhisker &amp; Steatlhfire  22:46, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

Reuploaded. Okay, I made the scar shorter, and I tried to make the shading a little less dark by blurring it a little more, but I think it looks messier now. And I tried doing what you said about the eye, too. Anything else besides needing to make the shading even brighter? I'm not sure how to make it any brighter than it is now. Any suggestions?

I always pictured him a bit more gingerish, but it never specifies it in a book :P The tabby markings are great!
