Frost (StarClan) - For Approval
Did I do a good job? Tigerbird-The-Great 16:59, August 9, 2014 (UTC)

He needs to be short-furred, needs a texture, and the image isn't the right size. For the texture, I recommend asking David, the artist of Frost's rogue image, how he made his.

On Frost's page, It says he's thick furred. Tigerbird-The-Great 17:11, August 9, 2014 (UTC)

Thick fur does not mean long-haired. I have thicker hair, but it wasn't always as long as it is. I used to have it fairly shorter when I was younger, and it was pretty dang thick. The thickness refers to the density of the fur, not the length. Plus, you have an an image to match, and David uses the short-furred blank.

Define and darken the shading a tick, and blur the earpink. Very nice job on this. If it helps, for thick furred cats, to make the shading look less flat, I do two layers of dark blue shading, instead of black. 5:43 PM, Sat Aug 9, 2014

Did you shrink the lineart at all? It looks much smaller than it should and I don't think it's just displaying as a thumbnail Brick   09:58, August 10, 2014 (UTC)

You need to reserve this before posting it. If you're not gonna reserve it, I'll just decline it again. =P I told you this when you posted it before, and in chat, Tiger.

^ I also told Tiger in one of her lessons. Also, there's waste around the tail, and random black around the earpink. Shinx Blitz  and  Melody  21:53, August 10, 2014 (UTC'''

Re-ups here: http://tinypic.com/r/21a9v1u/8 Tigerbird-The-Great 03:00, August 11, 2014 (UTC)

Blur/smudge the earpink and maybe dull it a tad as it looks a bit neon right now. Also blur the texture a bit. And the tail suggest the lightsource for the shading is coming from the lower left, but the body suggests it's coming from upper right? Brick  07:51, August 11, 2014 (UTC)

There's waste around the head and the base of the tail. Shinx Blitz  and  Melody  11:08, August 11, 2014 (UTC)

Re-ups here: http://tinypic.com/r/14uci00/8 Tigerbird-The-Great 14:54, August 11, 2014 (UTC)

You still need to blur the earpink more. I also see waste outside of the tail, a black spot near his ear, and the image needs to be resized. He's also looking a bit cross eyed... so perhaps look at other StarClan images to see where the eyes are focused. I'd define the eye depth a little more, too. 4:21 PM, Mon Aug 11, 2014

Re-up here: http://tinypic.com/r/29wmxr6/8 Also thanks for the tips! Tigerbird-The-Great 17:01, August 11, 2014 (UTC)

The lineart is blurred. 17:37 Mon Aug 11

Unblurred lineart here: http://tinypic.com/r/sgpidg/8 Tigerbird-The-Great 17:45, August 11, 2014 (UTC)

Define the tail, face, and leg shading, (read: add another layer of slightly less blurred shading, it makes it a appear darker while still being on the same opacity as the original layer, give or take), and perhaps the belly shading a little more too. Nice job on the eyes. 6:05 PM, Mon Aug 11, 2014

The color seems top be overlapping onto the lineart. Is your lineart layer the top one? 19:52 Mon Aug 11

You need to upload over File:Frost.star.png and post that image here. Just uploading it to tinypic doesn't show the changes here.

I fixed the charart alignment for you. Darken his texture a tad. His texture is a bit darker on his rogue image. Also, Define and add depth to his overall shading, and smudge/blur the earpink. And a little depth to his eyes wouldnt hurt either. Good charart for a beginner :)--~Breezeheart~ (talk) 17:23, August 12, 2014 (UTC)

Changing heading to For Approval and promoting you, since you know what to do and understand the basics of making chararts. You also need to use the file I linked for reuploading. That is, again, File:Frost.star.png. Using anything else won't work with the template. I can rename it for you.

Uh, the image you just placed on this page belongs to Breezeheart. Did you make a mistake and upload the wrong file or something? That art isn't yours.

I fixed the alignment for you, again. Thank you for changing it. Define the overall shading. Also, what Snow meant, is to reupload over my old image, not post my image instead of your own. When you go to the link she gave you, there is a button that says "Reupload with new file". Reupload this image to it, and that should be the place you keep reuploading, not posting new images everytime.--~Breezeheart~ (talk) 22:06, August 13, 2014 (UTC)

Please remember when uploading to make sure the image has the file name ONLY, and nothing like left, right, center, or thumb next to it, to avoid mucking up the page formatting. 10:28 PM, Wed Aug 13, 2014

hey guys, please remember that wikia sometimes automatically aligns the image, it's no big deal if someone has to fix it. thanks. 19:16, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

The texture doesn't flow with the fur on the head. 19:20 Thu Aug 14

I think the texture is a bit too thick, thin it out and have a bit more of it, and make sure it flows with the direction of the fur, not just going straight across the body. Have it follow the curve of the cheek, the nose, the forehead, the slope of the back, and so on. Jayie Unwritten words~ 20:04, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

The texture seems a little dark, and the shading is blotchy. 8:09 PM, Thu Aug 14, 2014

There's waste everywhere. Shinx Blitz  and  Melody  20:52, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

Duck, it only auto-aligns if you're not using source mode. It never aligns for me and I only use source. Visual is sometimes a pain in the rear and that's what auto-aligns it. Visual mode is nasty as heck and I hate it lmao source mode is the best thing ever. While I'm commenting, it appears that there are random patches of shading that have vanished or look like they've been erased.. also darken the ear pink a bit as it doesn't quite match the shade used on the rogue.

FYI: The color used for the earpink and nose is #9a6d6d in hex color mode. You can download a picture of it to coloprick from here 10:08 PM, Thu Aug 14, 2014

Thanks! I'll Re upload soon! Tigerbird-The-Great 23:29, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

Try using a 1x brush, and make little strokes throughout the image following the natural way the fur grows, and smudge it with a 1x brush, then play with the opacity until its not as dark.--~Breezeheart~ (talk) 23:41, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

There are bits of missing shading on his paws and tail 09:35, August 15, 2014 (UTC)

I can't see the texture at all on the white, the belly shading looks very hard edged, and the facial shading could be a bit more defined as well as on the feets. <span style="">7:00 PM, Mon Aug 18, 2014

Blur the earpink on a guassian blur of 1 and smooth out the shading. <span style="">6:02 PM, Tue Aug 19, 2014

Smudge the texture. Also, blurring the ear pink like that isn't required. You could smudge it instead and get the same results.

Curve the shading on the belly. Also, remember to say when you re-upload an image. <span style="">3:08 PM, Fri Aug 22, 2014

Thin out the stripes, and smudge them. 12:53, August 10, 2014 (UTC)

she looks a bit cross-eyes 13:54, August 10, 2014 (UTC)

Re-ups, http://i61.tinypic.com/2lar3m8.png, I didn't change the eyes because she doesn't look that cross eyed, more like she's looking at where she's walking. If someone else agrees that she looks derpy eyed I'll change it thought. Brick 14:44, August 10, 2014 (UTC)

I agree with Duck; she does look a bit cross-eyed.

Re-ups,''' http://i57.tinypic.com/34t5nx3.png     and i must admit on second looking the old eyes did make her look overly interested in whatever she was staring at. Maybe she had just read that Rainflower was actually Stormkit and Oakkit's mother? '''

Shattered Ice (Warrior) ~ For Approval
Heyyy :D Missed you all so much <3 Alrighty, so it's my first image back so don't go too rough on me..if you hate the tinted shading let me know. But black shading didn't make it look good at all. The pattern is a real pattern, but if you hate that let me know. Not bad for my first one in a while. :) Comment away!  18:33, August 15, 2014 (UTC)

The gray and white dosen't quite match the rogue image, and he needs to be long haired. 18:35, August 15, 2014 (UTC)

Whoops sorry, my bad. Didn't know there was a rogue image. I'll redo it. 18:38, August 15, 2014 (UTC)

Reuploaded. It actually went pretty smoothly on the body. The tail was my troublemaker..I know it doesn't look too good, but I tried..any suggestions on the tail pattern? x.x Lemme know if there's any shading probs. 16:13, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

There shouldn't be any gray near the front legs (looking at the rogue a bit more anyways), and expand the white chest area a little bit too.

Tbh, I think those areas are fine. Because if you look at the rogue's front leg closely, the gray is going down the leg a bit, like over the muscle. And the gray went over the chest exactly as this is, because the rogue is almost exactly like the warrior blank, only difference is the rogue sat down and raised his head up. That's how I looked at it and based my design. But of course, if someone else agrees with you, I'll change it. :3 Just stating my opinion. 16:39, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

I agree with Skye - there shouldn't be as much gray, since there's some spots with gray that the rogue doesn't have. 16:44, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

Uh, not on the front legs? Forelegs are front, not back. There is no gray on that chest area leading down to the legs, while you have some here. The white chest is also fairly larger on the rogue, while with this, I can't even tell he has one. There shouldn't be any gray there at all, since the rogue and warrior are facing the same direction. The gray area should be the belly area, not the chest, which on the rogue and warrior blanks, are two different things. The belly is the area between the legs on this blank, while on the rogue, there's more room, and you can tell where the belly is. With these blanks, that area is quite a bit smaller. As you have it, it does not quite match, and since they're facing the same direction, the placement should match as well. If it was the opposite side, you'd have more room to "play", so to say, but with this, you don't.

Gosh no need to be rude. I was just stating an opinion and asking for a gentle comment. I'll fix it later. .-. 16:59, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

I wasn't being rude. I was explaining my critique in further detail. I fail to see exactly how I was being rude, when all I was doing was elaborating on my apparent rejected comment. When you post art, this should be expected. I was providing you with a legitimate comment, and telling you to move something, remove something, expand something, ect, isn't rude. Rude would be lying to you and telling you this doesn't match at all- which it does pretty much match, actually, except for that patch of gray, which I asked you to fix....and also define the light on both front legs too, please. ^^

Define your tail light. And Snow is right; they wasn't being rude, but purely honest. 17:38, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

Reuploaded. Sorry...It's just I've been through a lot of crap recently and cats have just been being mean to me so when you use italics and bolds it just comes off the wrong way at first. I read it over a few times just now and realized you didn't mean it to be in a rude way. So I'm sorry for overreacting. -Back to the image, I removed the gray from the white underbelly and from above the foreleg. Added a few highlights on the legs and tail to help show where that light is at..sorry again Cloudy. 22:06, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

Looking good (he looks very fluffy :3)! Can you just darken the shading, especially on the tail?

Reuploaded. Haha, thank you Stoney! :3 22:36, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

Blur the shading going down the spine and on the back leg. Brick 18:44, August 17, 2014 (UTC)

Reuploaded. I didn't blur it too much for I think I'd be told to define it again. 19:37, August 17, 2014 (UTC)

Hey I don't mean to rush but I have to get this approved by Friday because I'm going to AZ for 9 days. No computer is accessible. So please comment so we can get this approved fast?? Thank you!! :) 19:13, August 18, 2014 (UTC)

The white on the back legs look really gray, and I believe there would be at least a little bit of light on them. Also define the shading on the gray. Please don't ask for comments after only a day. If it's been like three, that's one thing. One is rushing it and makes you appear really impatient.

Re-uploaded. I'm sorry, I've been told that more than once. But I do really need this approved by Friday..or I don't know what I'll do. 22:36, August 18, 2014 (UTC)

I realize this, but that doesn't mean we can twist things because of others going on vacation. People are busy and have lives. Also, shift the placement of the white a bit on the face. The white on the rogue goes a bit farther up, and is a bit thinner on the muzzle. This kinda shows exactly where I'm talking about. There's also flecks of faded lineart throughout the image, especially on the tail.

Re-uploaded. Is that better? And in case uploads are not working again... 17:36, August 19, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry to interrupt, but could you define the shading just a little bit? 12:25, August 21, 2014 (UTC)

Littlebird (Star) - For Approval
probably my first tabby I ever did that I actually liked. colors are pulled off of the original file. comments? 19:24, August 17, 2014 (UTC)

I'm gonna take a guess that you smudged the shading? If you did, thin the smudges out a little bit, and if you didn't, blur the shading/smooth it out. Also her elder looks kinda shiny so I suggest maybe fixing that sooner or later since that shading makes this look different in terms of color.

Add depth to the shading. This is gorgeous. <span style="">20:27 Sun Aug 17

Re-up ~ Thanks! ^^ I smudged the earpinks. It doesn't show much difference, though. Click for changes.

Her muzzle and upper/bottom of her neck looks a bit gray omg those eyes made an mean cat look so cute :o 21:11, August 18, 2014 (UTC)

Define the texture a bit, and can you make the stripe less smooth? Her other images are a little...bumpier, so to say. Blur them a teeny bit too.

smudge the white a tad more. 10:31, August 21, 2014 (UTC)

Re-up ~ Smudged the white fur a bit and lightened the shading on it, defined the texture and tried with the stripes by sharpening it a tad and then blurring it a little.

Tawnypelt (Alt Ki 4) ~ CBA
Okay, she was described as being pale brown and there was something about her being described with a white muzzle, chest, tail, and paws, but I can remove those easy. <span style="">7:38 PM, Mon Aug 18, 2014

They're different descriptions. That white is used when she's a tortie. Go ahead and remove 'em, please. ^^ Also, blur the shading just a bit.

Maybe define it a touch, too. 21:09, August 18, 2014 (UTC)

'reup'  <span style="">9:57 PM, Mon Aug 18, 2014

She looks green. Maybe use around the range of #B18567? Pale brown is a tricky color to work with. =/

I didn't think she looked green... I color picked from the earpink chart and used brown for the shading. reup she looks pink now... <span style="">5:25 PM, Tue Aug 19, 2014

That earpink chart is outdated and really shouldn't be used for a reference. She doesn't look pink at all to me, honestly.

my monitor needs adjusting again, looks fine on a laptop. anyone know where I can get a good monitor for cheap? <span style="">7:07 PM, Wed Aug 20, 2014

Not off the top of my head, since I think you live somewhere that isn't the US. lol. Please define the edges of the head shading a bit. What I mean is kinda like what I just explained on Sandstorm's alt queen if that helps.

reup No you were right I do live in the US. I've got a dud computer so I may just swap monitors. IDK about my current one, it works fine but I have to adjust it weekly... <span style="">11:31 PM, Wed Aug 20, 2014

Duskfur (Queen) ~ For Approval
Since Snow withdrew this, i gave it a shot since she needed a Queen image. I tried to match the stripes the best i could. Colorpicked from her Warrior image, i used a redish tint for the shading.

Her dorsal stripe should be sorta more to the left on her tail, and same with the back because of the perspective. Brick 10:20, August 19, 2014 (UTC)

I can't see the pale part on her tail, and I'm also agreeing with Brick. ^^

Nutmeg (KP) (Q) - For Approval
My sole motivation to make Nutmeg's queen image was because I wanted to draw a collar. That was my sole intention here. Oh, and here are the changes: http://www.ezimba.com/work/140821C/ezimba13931812684100.png Thoughts? Jayie Unwritten words~ 22:12, August 20, 2014 (UTC)

Lighten the base color a shade or two and brighten her up a bit, looks very dark compared to the original. Blur the shading and sharpen the white as it is starting to look gray. Looks nice!! :) also I'm not sure but should there be more stripes on the new one? It seems like the old one has a lot. Plus they entwine in places while on yours they kind of just go straight. Lol sorry for being an ass with the long comment :3 12:00, August 21, 2014 (UTC)

I pulled the base color directly from the image, so I don't want to lighten it, it would make it inaccurate. Same with the belly fur - it was that grayish color on the other image. I'll blur the shading and add more stripes when I get home. :) Jayie  Unwritten words~ 13:06, August 21, 2014 (UTC)

The base color is fine, Jayie. Different shading techniques will have different results, and might alter the color a bit.

This charart is now bugging the heck out of me. I've revised it a good 20 times now. I can't seem to get that color as bright and saturated as the other image. I think it's the shading. :/ I've tried reducing it, but it's only helped somewhat. Suggestions? Jayie Unwritten words~ 18:27, August 21, 2014 (UTC)

Possibly blur the shading on the front legs a tad? They look very hard edged.<span style="color: blue;font-family: Monotype Corsiva; background: black; border:1px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color: Blue;"> ~ Breezey ~  Gaara Forever ♥☻  10:17, August 22, 2014 (UTC)
