Worst. Image. Ever. Meh, I did the other one so... Sorry I was gone for a few days.-- Darkhallows Lair 01:27, 29 June 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)

Played around with the ginger. Darkhallows Lair 04:17, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

I think it looked better before... Also, the ginger needs to be redder as it's kinda golden now (as M&S mentioned)  Sandy Talk! 14:44, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

(M) - The ginger's still golden...also, there are jagged lines through the ginger patches. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 18:24, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

The patches look more yellow than ginger. Silver tree  ♥  17:39, 30 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.

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)

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)

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)

(M) - Much better. However, there is some smudging outside of the lineart. (If you have the wand tool, click the background, then zoom in 800%. This make it incredibly easy to see smudging.) Also, the background needs to be transparent. (I can do this for you, if you want.) Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 20:41, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Talltail- For approval


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).

Why are his feet black?--Yai-Girl 17:48, 6 July 2009 (UTC) Yai-Girl

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.

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)

Don't be rude, Hawkey. It does look like it's popping out of the ear. Blur it. A lot. So it looks like it's inside the ear, and not stuck on like a wad of cotton candy.

She's longhaired. Remember when she asked Fireheart the newly appointed deputy to escort her to HighStones? Just the two of them?

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 wanted to have a go at a kit. Can anyone tell me how to put shading on a white kit? --Spottedwing 18:12, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

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

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)

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.--<span style="color: darkblue; background:#gold; border:1px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 3em; color:darkblue;"> 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)

Blackstar (Le) for Approval

 * I finally got around to be able to post him. Here's Blackstar. I think the problem I see may be my own shading. Comments?-- ♪Shimmer ♫ 19:55, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

I think his shading could be a tad bit thicker; also lighten his paws cause I can't see the lineart. I like your highlights on the black paws though. -- Bramble My Realm 21:36, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Blend the shading, and make his eyes amber, orange, they are yellow. Besides that he looks great! :) Hawkfire My Den 01:27, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Where does it say he's long-haired? Boltstar 17:27, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

I've been wondering the same thing as Boltstar. I don't remember it ever saying he's long furred, fluffy, or anything of the sort. The eyes are fine, as they never say what color they are. Everything else has already been addressed by Bramble.-- Quiet !.. 18:04, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Does it actually say anywhere in the books that his eyes are amber/yellow? If not then I think you should change them to blue as that is the colour depicted in his image on the cover of Codes of the Clans. As far as I can remember this is the only kind of indication we have towards his eye colouring... Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 19:05, 21 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Why is no one looking at the Blackstar (W) up for approval? No one said anything about that being long haired. Plus the same thing happen with my Bluestar image..no one said anything about the approved Bluefur image being longhaired, but as soon as I did the leader, it pops up out of nowhere....Sorry its just really annoying me. His picture in The Cats of the Clan show him having amber eyes and that came out before Code of the Clans. Just want everything cleared up before I upload my image cause I don't want to have to do multiples like I had to do with Bluestar too with one long haired and one short haired.-- ♪Shimmer ♫ 20:42, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Okay. Leave his eye colour amber then. Sorry. As for his fur, I don't see a problem with him being longhaired. It doesn't say eitherway. As long as it's consistent in his images. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 09:35, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry Shimmer, I didn't notice. I know how you feel.(Just not with Character art images.) I think it looks pretty good, I always imagined his eyes to be amber too. Boltstar 13:49, 22 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Updated-- ♪Shimmer ♫ 19:21, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Darken the shading on the tail; I can barely see it. But other than that, I like this image a lot. Sparrowsong 02:05, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

All I can see is there is some smuged lineart above the tail. Other then that I think he's very handsome. --Spottedwing 02:54, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Yes he is. (I started a fad). The only thing I see is that there seems to be a gray pinprick pixel at the tops of both eyes, and on his right (our left) ear, where the outside of the ear curves up. -- Bramble My Realm 15:53, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

The image looks are blurry to me, but it just might be my computer...--<font face="Tempus Sans ITC" color="#949494">Warrior♥ <font face="Tempus Sans ITC" color="#7A7A7A">Warrior's Den 16:08, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Dawnstar - For Approval


Well, I can finally post here, and I decided to use the fancy leader template for my first character art! I wasn't sure if I should blend the ear in or not, just because to me it looks okay without it on her. Feel free to criticize away! -- Quiet ! 08:41, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

-gasps-. That is just... amazing. love the texture. It's like I could reach out and touch it. The only thing that I see is just maybe you the soft brush and run it along the bottom of her ear so it's looks more natural. =)--<font face="Tempus Sans ITC" color="#949494">Warrior♥ <font face="Tempus Sans ITC" color="#7A7A7A">Warrior's Den 17:45, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

This is beautiful! Is this your first image Quiet? I can't see any faults other than mentioned already. Nice work! Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 19:07, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, guys. I'll go fix the ear now. (: Edit: Blended the ear. Anything else? -- Quiet !.. 19:16, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Are you kidding me? There can't be anything else wrong with it because it is FABULOUS!!!!!!! I have never seen an image like this, let alone a first! I think it's ready for approval.Minnowclaw 20:51, 21 July 2009 (UTC)Minnowclaw

This is your first image? *Hyperventilates* You.are.amazing. Quietstep, this is BEAUTIFUL! Officially the best-looking image I've ever seen. I can't see anything wrong with it, except the shading could be just a little darker. Other than that, wow...I wish my images were half this great. Sparrowsong 21:21, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

She's gorgeous! I can't believe this is your first image on the PCA! Amzing! Hawkfire My Den 21:42, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

I agree. The most beautiful cat ever! --Spottedwing 03:01, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

lol. I think everyone's had a chance to comment now! I don't think her shading should be darker though Sparrowsong as she is a pale cream cat... Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 10:18, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

She's beautiful. No one really seems to have a problem, so comments before approval? (Quietstep, aren't you glad that you tried so hard to get on here? ;) -- Bramble My Realm 15:46, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Brightheart (A) - For Approval
All her other images have either been done or are being done so I thought I'd complete the set! Constructments? Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 10:20, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Very nice, Sandy. I just think she should have a ginger patch around her eye, besides that, add a little more shading. :) Hawkfire My Den 14:36, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Could you make her patches a darker shade of giner? They seem light compared to the other Brightheart poses. Other than that she looks great! Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 15:23, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I added a ginger patch around her eye and changed the colouring on the tail to match the warrior pixel. I upped the saturation of the colouring as well. I was going to add in her injuries but she gained them as she bacame a warrior so I thought it would be better to show her as she was for the majority of her apprenticeship. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 13:51, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

She's great, and I agree with not having her injuries here, as you explained, Sandy. (OT: I laughed when I saw your sig, Sandy. You dragonkitinized your whole theme! :) Your sig is awesome and talk page are awesome.) Does anyone else have any comments? -- Bramble My Realm 15:49, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

lol. well I didn't really have a theme before so I thought it would be perfect! I need a little firebreather to guard my page from vandals! lol Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 15:59, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Owlstar- For Approval
Well, here's my first image; hope it's okay. Constructments? -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 15:25, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Make the eyes amber, they are yellow.And blend the ear pink, besides that iy looks greats! Hawkfire My Den 16:23, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, Hawkfire! The changes haven't been showing up for me, yet, but, I darkened the eye, and tried blending the ear. How's this? -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 16:40, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Not bad at all for a first iamge! But you need to add more shading and make the shading you already have darker. (If your using Pixlr.com or Photoshop, use the burn tool.) Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 17:04, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, M&S! I used the Burn Tool on all my shaded areas, then blended it into the pelt. But, I'm not sure where I could add extra shading. I was thinking the back? -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 18:22, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I can't see any shading whatsoever. <font color="Cyan" style="background:Black">G <font color="Green" style="background:Black">B <font color="#9933FF" style="background:Black">57 18:41, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Darkened the shading. Is this better? -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 19:14, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

No. There's only shading on the tail and leg. Look at the other leader pics to see where you still need shading. <font color="Cyan" style="background:Black">G <font color="Green" style="background:Black">B <font color="#9933FF" style="background:Black">57 19:24, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I've been looking off the Sunstar picture for reference. I have shading under the chin, on the forelegs, and the places you mentioned, GB. Do you want me to darken it again? And, would one of the places that need shading be the back? -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 19:44, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Sunstar's shading is pretty advanced. Try looking at Lionstar right below this entry for your shading and highlights. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 20:34, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I extended the shading up Owlstar's back. Is there anywhere else he needs it? -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 21:20, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Better. Try adding some more shading on the right side of his face and the left side of his chest. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 21:38, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Like this? -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 22:44, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Yup! Just blur all of the shading in as much as you can and he'll look great!Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 22:57, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Tried blurring the shading. Anything else? -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 23:09, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Nice first image. You need to add thicker shading on the back, legs and tail and add some on the head too. Blend it all in and then blend the ear pink too as it is quite stand-out-ish. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 13:33, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

As well as blending the ear pink also make it darker. That light of a pink on a gray cat's ear looks really strange, esp. if you picture it in the real world. Make it a lot darker. But I like him otherwise. -- Bramble My Realm 15:50, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

I darkened the ear pink, and thickened the shading. But, it looks a little lumpy to me.... -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 17:06, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - I don't think it looks lumpy at all. Could you try to make the ear pink and nose color more like Cloudstar's? Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 22:04, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

I modeled the ear, and nose, off Cloudstar. Is this better? Or, does it need to be darker? -- Honeyfur Bob's Your Uncle! 22:18, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Lionstar - for approval


Here's my 1st leader. Does any one know how to do good highlights like Minnowclaw and Quiet have done on their images? Sand wich  989  19:11, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Wow Sandwich, this looks great. Maybe blend the shading and ear pink a little more, and are his eyes really light blue? And no, I do not know how to add highlights like that. Ask them yourself! :) Hawkfire My Den 22:12, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I agree with Hawkfire on blending the shading. It took a while for me to find out what you meant by highlights, but I don't use them. I have no clue what quiet does, but if you mean what I did with Thunderstar, I go to www.pixlr.com and use the dodged tool for shading and highlights. Hope I helped!Minnowclaw 22:39, 22 July 2009 (UTC)Minnowclaw

Make the eyes amber as it is a generic colour unless you can find a reference for blue eyes. Take the shading away from the top edge of the tail and add some on the neck and left side of his face. Then blend all the shading more. Highlights aren't strictly necessary but if you do want to add them then use the dodge tool. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 13:32, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

You've been waiting for him, so here he is. Criticism is welcome. <font color="Cyan" style="background:Black">G <font color="Green" style="background:Black">B <font color="#9933FF" style="background:Black">57 18:15, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

I think he looks good. Cute. -- Bramble My Realm 19:40, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Could you make the ear pink more triangular, darken the shading and add shading under the chin? Other then that he looks great! Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 21:54, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Actually, M&S, if you looked at just about every pair of ears on our kit pics, you'd see that they're not triangular. <font color="Cyan" style="background:Black">G <font color="Green" style="background:Black">B <font color="#9933FF" style="background:Black">57 22:22, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

(M) - Good point. Never mind. Mosswisker&amp;Stealthfire 23:26, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

But, M&S has a point on the shading under the chin. You would need to make it darker.Minnowclaw 10:59, 24 July 2009 (UTC)Minnowclaw

Scourge - Declined
well, my first charart. i decided to do scourge. i couldn't make a collar with thorns without messing up the paint so i made hin in the leader blank using paint. how is it?rainpelt

Try making him lighter so then we can see the lineart. Also he has a the bone colar. Very nice job on the paw. --Spottedwing 01:55, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Was scourge really a leader? He was just part of a group of rogues that basically wasn't a clan. Sand wich  989  02:22, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

I agree with Sandwhich. He was a leader, but of rouges, which isn't the same as, say, being like scourgestar:). I thik you should wait for rouge blanks to be approved.Minnowclaw 10:56, 24 July 2009 (UTC)Minnowclaw i added the bone collar, lightened up the black, and blended the ears better rainpelt

Following a recent discussion we had on BloodClan cats it was decided they would be classed as rogues as they aren't real Clan cats. Therefore I'm going to have to decline this for incorrect blank. Sorry Rainpelt. I would advise you choose a cat who definitely fits the blank so this problem doesn't occur again. A good place to start is always with a warrior as the shading for them is among the easiest. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 12:52, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
