Warriors Wiki talk:Charart

Prey-Hunter Blanks - For approval
(M) - Alright! I've drawn cats for awhile now, so I thought I'd put it to good use!


 * Double lineart? Cheak.


 * About the right size? Cheak.

All it needs is a transparent bckground. Could somebody do that for me please? I know how to do it, but I've had some troubles and I don't want to risk anything! Thanks! Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 19:55, 19 June 2009 (UTC)



OMG, ur so good! =] This are real good. Lets see what everyone else says- but wait, some pplz made leaders with the warrior blanks... Lavastream, SunsetClan's Medicine Cat! 20:06, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I've done the transparency for you and had no problems with pixlr... don't know what that was about. As for the images. I like the position you've chosen and overall they are very good. There are a few things though. Firstly their backs are quite bumpy... Secondly, their heads are quite small and could be a bit bigger. I also think the fur on the belly of the longhaired looks strange and needs to be a bit... neater (that sounds so stupid). We also nede to think about how easy they'll be to colour. Sandy Talk! 20:13, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Thanies! I think the people who made leaders with warrior blanks understood that leader blanks would be made one day. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 20:18, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Do you mean that they coloured Bluestar in a warrior blank for example. If so then the reason for that is that we are eventually hoping to get images of all ranks every cat has ever upheld. They will all be added to a character's page together. Sandy Talk! 20:20, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - I'll fix these some more tomorrow... but for now, the fur and backs have been fixed on the male and female longhaired. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 21:35, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

There is gray on the picture? Lavastream, SunsetClan's Medicine Cat! 01:51, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

That's the transparent background Mistfur Sandy Talk! 13:32, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

'''(M) - Note: I will be gone for the next week or so. Please do not delete these images. I am planning to work on them as soon as I am done with camp. Thank you.''' Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 21:17, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - I got rid of the grey and decreased the pointyness of the chin, but it's not showing up for me. I'm going to work on these some more tomorrow. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 19:23, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - I fixed the grey on the images (It wasn't the transparent background that Mistfur was talking about), decreased the pointedness of the chin, and fixed the backs on the other balnks. Is there a trick to increasing the size of the head? Thankies! Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 18:52, 28 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I was thinking... I don't know how bad you'd think this idea but I really like these and especially as prey-hunter blanks because it looks like they're leaping on prey as the mountain cats leap... dunno. Just a thought.  Sandy Talk! 17:02, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - I love that idea Sandy! Should I put some kind of prey underneath their paws or just leave it? Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 19:42, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) I edited the images slightly, but I can't upload do to my computer freezing, so I'll upload them later. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 20:38, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm worried how easy will the prey-hunters color, I think you should use an example like what Bramble did with the queen blanks, so when we are going to approve the prey-hunters we can approve the example.--Yai-Girl 02:34, 30 June 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl


 * I got bored and decided to do an example for you. I didn't have any cat in mind when I did it but I guess it could be Brook.



I really like the shorthaired and they're not actually that hard to use at all but the long-haired's fur is still bothering me. It's kind of... spikey... Also, the hind legs on them all need to be a little longer I think and on the longhaired there is a strange indent on the front leg.  Sandy Talk! 12:49, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Now that I can upload again (I have no clue what that was about) I fixed some pixels and the indent on the paw. I'm going to work on the longhairs and fix the legs.

Also, thank you for coloring that image! It looks nice. :3 Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 18:36, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Fixed the fur on the longhaired. I didn't fix the haunch because it looked really strange when I did.

The main thing that's bothering me is that these blanks seem smaller than the other blanks, yet when I try to increase the sixe it blurs it. Any suggestions? Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 19:00, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

I know... I don't know what to say as they blurred for me too.. there must be a way though  Sandy Talk! 19:28, 30 June 2009 (UTC)


 * To me, they look small, so make the head bigger and scale the blank. (You can do that in paint or photoshop, whatever program you choose. --Mallinois Cinder-Wolf 22:09, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

The head is kind of egg shaped, it needs a stop. Also, could you make them a little bigger?-- Darkhallows Lair 17:44, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - My computer's being worked on (I'm using my parent's laptop), so I can't work on these for the next 2 to 3 days. Please do not delete these. I'll work on them as soon as the computer's fixed. Thank you! Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 18:50, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Wow, the computer was fixed way sooner than I thought... Well, I increased the size of the long female blanks. I really don't know if they're any good, so let me know if this looks okay, and then I'll make the other ones this size. :) Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 18:59, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Well, nobody's commented yet, so I increased the size of the other blanks, and took away the background transparency (There was some discussion about this on the queen blanks). Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 20:33, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for not commenting, Moss. The long haired bellies look weird, like they're spiked with gel or something. Take off those angles; I know it's supposed to look like long fur, but we'll see how to improve them after you take them off, cause they really do look weird. And also, you know how in the other blanks, the hind legs have a curve to them? Add that to your hind legs and see how they look. -- Bramble My Realm 16:58, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - No problem Bramble! I'm giving one last shot at the belly fur. If this is bad, then somebody else can do it. I used a different style that I've seen used on a few blanks. I also tried to fixed the haunch, although I think I failed. :/ Also, can somebody please tell me how to increase the head size on pixlr? Thank you! Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 23:22, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I likez zis belly fur. -- Dawnfeather talk! 06:32, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

This belly fur is awesome! It looks so natural and everything. Okay, we need to get these approved. The near foreleg on allof them is big and then it suddenly slims itself; slim the whole leg so it looks even. On the near hindleg, the paw had a sharp protrusion; round that off. The back ear is like a corner to the near ear, make it smaller and more pointed like the first ear. The shoulder is a bit too big, or pronounced, but make it slightly smaller and less noticeable. Last, the way you had the neck, the space is a rather sharp angle. Round it off as well. Oh wait; this is the last thing:Don't be discouraged by my long post. :) These are great, and just need a few tweakings before approval. -- Bramble My Realm 11:15, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Actually, I like long posts Brable; there's nothing more annoying then knowing you can work on your image but you can't do anything becuase you don't know what's wrong. :) All your comments have been completed. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 22:39, 9 July 2009 (UTC)



Glad you do. :) The ear looks a lot better, but the front leg is still bugging me. I made a diagram to show you what I mean. Also, the front paw needs to be altered; I showed that in the diagram too. Still use thickened lineart, though. -- Bramble My Realm 23:01, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Oh, thanks for the diagram! We had a major communication breakdown there. Ha! Anways, I fixed the foreleg. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 23:11, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

It looks very good now. You've done a great job on these. I think they should be approved. is there anything else, members? -- Bramble My Realm 18:33, 11 July 2009 (UTC)



(M) - Yay! Oh, and I colored in a long-haired, just incase you wanted to see one colored. It's Mist. (And if you wanted to do her, no worries, because I'm not planning on putting her up for approval anytime soon.) Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 19:04, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

I think these are ready. Comments before apprval? (please approve/comment when 24 hrs are up, I will be gone) -- Bramble My Realm 21:55, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

For the most part, I think these look great! But the thing that's bothering me is the muzzle. It should stick out farther on all of them, they look flat. If you need a better explanation I can draw you a diagram/example thing. :) --<span style="font-family:Anime Ace; color;#00B8E6; border:2px solid; -moz-border-raiuds:3em; color:#00B8E6;">Goldencloud 05:37, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

I agree with Greencloud, and the head should be a bit bigger in proportion to the body.Minnowclaw 20:36, 16 July 2009 (UTC)Minnowclaw

(M) - Goldencloud ~ I didn't fix the muzzle becuase it looked like a dog when I did. :) If you could draw an example that would be great.

Minnowclaw ~ I finally figured out how to increase the head size! Yay!

Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 19:20, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - I also fixed the ear and shoulder. (The ears were a little too pointy and the shoulder was basically a straight line.) Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 21:58, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

It's not the worst image ever. :) Make the ginger patches a bit more spread out, and since she's tortie maybe add in some ginger specks on the black to make it look more broken up, and not like she's just black with white and ginger patches. She's actually really good right now. -- Bramble My Realm 02:07, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - I like it! Try making the ginger patches darker though. They look golden. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 19:12, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Here's my first Tortoiseshell. I know it needs major improvements but I want your guys' opinion. Summer is here  !!!!!!!!!!  21:56, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

That's so cool Sandwich! I think she looks pretty good, I just think that she needs some color on her face, if you know what I mean. I also need some help creating a charcat, everytime I try, it won't do the right color! It ends up black or white or gray.

She's pretty nice, and there's certainly plenty of shading that I can see. I would suggest splitting that big black patch that comes down from her ear with orange, because that looks better in my mind. We'll see what it looks like after that. -- Bramble My Realm 23:18, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

The only thing that jumps out at me is that tortoiseshells have more black on them than any other color most of the time. Your picture looks like it has more white on it than anything. Try making the head black, and we'll see how that looks. Looks great! --<span style="font-family:Anime Ace; color;#00B8E6; border:2px solid; -moz-border-raiuds:3em; color:#00B8E6;">Goldencloud 00:37, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - I'd get rid of that white/grey strip under the tail. It looks unatural. Other than that, this looks great. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 20:29, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

I didn't know what you meant by that but I fixed the tail. Sand wich  989  20:42, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Look at the tail. That white on there looks unatural; I'd take it off and simply continue the ginger and black. Sorry for not being clear the first time. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 17:42, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

The black is too black; it blends right in with the lineart. Try making it like a light black color, like with a Breezepelt or Blackclaw color. -- Bramble My Realm 21:02, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Cross out what I said about the tail. Sorreltail has it too, so... I'd just do what Bramble said. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 16:21, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Made the black lighter. Sand wich  989  22:47, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

In the process of doing that you also made the eye lineart gray. And there is still a dark black patch by her hind foot still. -- Bramble My Realm 22:54, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Made eye lineart black. But I thought since the black on her hind leg is in the shadows it would be that color anyway. Sand wich  989  19:51, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

It looks out of place. Make it the same color as the rest of the black and then shade it. It will look more natural. -- Bramble My Realm 11:18, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

I don't get what your saying. Sand wich  989  18:31, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

On the tail, the shading for the ginger isa fluoro-ish colour, where as on the rest of the body, it is just a darker ginger. --<span style="font-family:Tempus Sans ITC; color;Orange; background:LightBlue; border:1px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Orange;"> Dawnfeather talk! 23:26, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

So the shading on the tail is darker where as the shading on the body is lighter? Sand wich  989  02:34, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

No, the shading on the tail looks fluoro, but the shading on the body looks normal. --<span style="font-family:Tempus Sans ITC; color;Orange; background:LightBlue; border:1px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Orange;"> Dawnfeather talk! 01:21, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

I think she means the tail looks buldgy. Try blending it a tiny bit more.Minnowclaw 17:14, 17 July 2009 (UTC)Minnowclaw

Is this better? If not I guess it's because the shading I did was like almost 3 weeks ago and I can't remember it. Sand wich  989  00:17, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Look everyone! My first real charcat!!! Let me know if it has issues, I shaded him and everything!! I want this charcat to be approved. <font color="lime" style="background:Purple">Hawkfire <font color="orange" style="background:purple">Rock and roll all nite! 15:42, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Well, first of all, I changed the section to Talltail, since that was his warrior name, and as we'll be seeing him in Bluestar's Prophecy as a warrior it will work. Now, the black patches on him need to a color-slightly-lighter-than-black, because then it just goes with the lineart. Lighten the black, and then we'll go from there. Also, if you're still using Paint, I would highly recommend getting GIMP or using pixlr. -- Bramble My Realm 17:34, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Bramble's right. For some idea of what an approved black and white cat should look like take a look at Crowfrost, smallkit or toadkit (approved images).

He is better, but I would suggest a black patch on his foreleg coming up to his chest, and lighten the black even more. You also need to blur the transition between black and white on all the places. Some more shading is needed, too. Keep it up, and he'll be approved in no time. And Yai, I'm presuming his paws are black cause he's a black and white cat. -- Bramble My Realm 17:54, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I don't see the black dots anymore. I think you just add shading and blend it in and it will look good. Sand wich  989  22:29, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I did blend, and I did add shading. I just brightened the shading to make it a silvery color. Anything else? Hawkfire My Den 13:19, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

The black needs to be a lot lighter, and I think in places it goes outside the lineart. -- Bramble My Realm 19:06, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

I don't see anyn shading. But I would do is make the blur tool brush big enough so half of it can be on the black and half of it can be on the white and just run it until the black and white stops. Do that where there is all black and white next together. Sand wich  989  19:57, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Better? Hawkfire My Den 20:02, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Make the black slightly lighter than what you have now so you can see the lineart. And it still needs more shading and the patches need blending.

I found the perfect shade of black! I added more shading, and I added more blending, is it better? Hawkfire My Den 14:27, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

This is the best yet, and it is a great shade of black. The shading is too pronounced, though, it needs to be more blurred and less standoutish. -- Bramble My Realm 14:35, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Better? I blurred the shading Hawkfire My Den 12:17, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Better, yes, but put a little bit of the normal black color between the shading and the white on that patch in the middle of his back. His ear pink also needs to be blended more into the pelt. -- Bramble My Realm 19:36, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

The eye needs to be bigger and amber instead of red, and the right ear needs to show the inside, and it looks like the back is lower in the middle. Boltstar 20:48, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Your shading style is lovely, it looks like his pelt is gleaming. But the black needs to be lighter so we can see the lineart. You can look at Hollyleaf, Nightcloud or Breezepelt for reference. Use this: for reference on how to do the eye. Also, I thought Nightpelt was short-haired. But that's all, he looks great other wise. -- Bramble My Realm 21:01, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I re-uploaded it. I hope it's still shaded okay. And it says that he's a "old, long furred tom."--Nightflight 21:46, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

I think the eye looks absolutely beautiful. The new black color is okay, in my opinion. Boltstar 22:17, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Very nice eye. And his color is now great and shading still remains good, cept it needs to be blurred just a bit. :) I took it off thumbnail, so I could better look at it. Can you tell me where it said he's long furred? Also; you blurred some of the lineart; on the tip of the head, right beside the ear, in the middle of the back, and on part of the tail. You need to replace the lineart in those spots. This is a great first image. -- Bramble My Realm 22:15, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

It says that he's long furred on his page, Nightstar. --Nigthflight 22:25, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

I need a book reference. There's an anon running around that loves to add false details into descriptions. All Nightpelt is in the books I've read is an old black tom. -- Bramble My Realm 22:43, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

I've checked every book he's in and mentioned; he's not longhaired. I changed his article, as well. Sorry for the mixup. :) I can convert him to shorthaired, if you want. I won't change anything you've done with his coloring. -- Bramble My Realm 23:04, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

I know. I was wondering about that. I am working on changing him now, I'll like that. --Nigthflight 00:54, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Oh I am so sorry! I was the one who put that he was long furred on his page. I always imagined him like that. I do know he is a black tom with amber eyes tho. SOrry! Hawkfire My Den 02:38, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Blend the ear pink and the muzzle a tiny bit more. Also, I agree with Dawn. It did say that she was sleek and I think that means she is short haired. Where is a reference that she had long hair?Minnowclaw 23:07, 14 July 2009 (UTC)Minnowclaw

 * Well until we can have this all cleared, I made two versions of Bluestar, one thats longhaired and the other is shorthaired. When we can figure it all out, I'll delete the one that isn't needed since they are on the same file together (takes up less space). I took Mal's suggestion with the muzzle and I blended the colors and ear.-- ♪Shimmer ♫ 02:36, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

She's longhaired. Remember when she asked Fireheart the newly appointed deputy to escort her to HighStones? Just the two of them? It says then something about her getting out of breath and Fireheart hopes it was just because of her thicker fur. Um... here we go. p61/62 of the paperback version of Rising Storm (Sandstorm and Fireheart cover version) "Perhaps it's just climbing in this heat, he thought hopefully, After all, her pelt is thicker than mine." I think this shows she is longhaired but I can find another reference if there's still doubt. This was just the first that came to mind.

1.) Add shading by taking the brush tool in pixlr.com, choose the 5 brush and change the exposer to 50%. Put the brush when the shding should go and blend.

2.) The patches look to circleish and ovalish. Make them sort of lumpy.

3.) Blend all the patches and ear pink

Blackstar(W)- for approval


This is my first Charcat, so I would like some tips on where and how to make them, because I can't do nice blurred shading on MS Paint, so, what are you people doing? O_o Critisism welcome. By the way, I made the feet lighter black, but just REALLYYY hard to see that. -Fernpool

Not bad for your first try, but add shading, ear pink (make sure to blend it), and make the eye look alive. Make the feet slighter lighter than pure black, so we can see the lineart. Blend the shading once you add it on Blackfoot. I highly recommend using Pixlr, Photoshop, or GIMP. Try fixing Blackstar on www.pixlr.com I use paint to color, make ear pink, and adding tabby stripes, Paint is not very recommended (unless you know how to use it like me!)  Hawkfire My Den 22:14, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Look at Cloudtail for a reference on shading and ear pink. --Spottedwing 22:28, 18 July 2009 (UTC

Hi, and welcome :) The programme I recommend for new artists who don't have a good programme already downloaded is www.pixlr.com. You can also invest in Photoshop or download Gimp free. You need to make the black slightly paler (a kind of dark grey) so it is seperate from the lineart. Thne make the white a very very pale grey so shading can be added. Take the burn tool (or a slightly darker colour) to add shading on the top of the head, back, tail, belly, chest and legs. Then blend it all in and go from there. I really would advise you to stay clear of pant (no matter how good you are at using it.) <span style="color:DarkBlue;background:LightBlue;border:1px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:DarkBlue;"> Sandy <font color="IceBlue">Talk! 12:31, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
