The shading seems too dark, though it could just be me/my screen. SquidwardPlays 22:53, December 21, 2018 (UTC)

I agree, it could be smooth out on the cheek as well as lightened. —  Ellie  Fear breeds a desire  for simplicity   22:55, December 21, 2018 (UTC)

Agreed. Smooth it out on the legs too. Is there supposed to be shading on the muzzle? If it is smooth it out as well.Potato Flakin (talk) 23:06, December 21, 2018 (UTC)

should be some on the belly too. 23:14, December 21, 2018 (UTC)

Shading and highlights both could smooth out a bit more. They look very stark. —​​​

It is (the shading) leaking away from the lineart on the back leg. 00:21, December 22, 2018 (UTC)

^ Along with that, some of it is leaking onto the lineart. —​​​

Her other images do not have texture, so I don't know why this image appears to have texture. 14:07, December 22, 2018 (UTC)

It doesn’t have texture, it’s just the shading ^^ 15:25, December 22, 2018 (UTC)

Don't forget to reups ;). Can you add some more shading along the bottom of the hind legs/paws and front paws? 23:07, December 22, 2018 (UTC)

Could you also smooth the cheek shading some more, it seems blotchy and very stark to me. —  Ellie  Fear breeds a desire  for simplicity   01:56, December 23, 2018 (UTC)

can you smoothin out the shading, almose evrywhere? it dose look like texture. Im Am TrasH =^.,.^= 07:40, December 23, 2018 (UTC)

Owl, it's suppose to look like that. The shading is artists choice. There are different types of shading styles and textured is one of them. —  Ellie  Fear breeds a desire  for simplicity   08:46, December 23, 2018 (UTC)

Is that shading on the muzzle? It looks kind of odd and out of place. 14:15, December 23, 2018 (UTC)

reups 15:48, December 23, 2018 (UTC)

The shading on the face seems to be a different colour than the shading on the rest of the body, could you change that? :) 16:17, December 23, 2018 (UTC)

reups 17:20, December 23, 2018 (UTC)

the shading on the front leg that gose to the back, can you smoothen that out? it looks flat.Im Am TrasH =^.,.^= 20:42, December 23, 2018 (UTC)

The shading still looks very blotchy. Is there anyway you can maybe like - take another colour to use to blend the shading? I can't explain it so here's an example of what I mean, sjsfkljdkf. —​​​

Lower the opacity? That may help.

with this kind of shading, you want to be adding much more lighter streaks around the darkest areas so it ends up as the rough gradient ur aiming for. 12:10, December 24, 2018 (UTC)

reups 14:34, December 24, 2018 (UTC)

Can you add some more shading to the paws closest to us? 17:33, December 24, 2018 (UTC)

Could you smooth out the neck shading or just lower the opacity of it?

I think maybe lowering the opacity of the overall shading would do the trick, Ari, instead of smoothing it out. I see the kind of shading you're going for and I like it. That being said, could you actually tick the opacity of the shading by just a little bit? I feel it's a tad dark. ​​​​

reuploaded 17:54, December 25, 2018 (UTC)

This may because of the Warrior blanks anatomy is a bit weird, but can you define the neck shading a bit better? I'm sure its because of the blank but sjhjsdh. Maybe like this? —​​​

reuploaded this is really hard xd 13:45, December 26, 2018 (UTC)

Very nice, Ari! the shading by the bottom of the head and shoulder looks a little dark compared to the rest. Could you either lighten that just a tick or darken the rest to match?

'''Reups. Silverfur  skz  [ 04:15, 12/25/2018 ] '''

This color doesn't quite look like it matches the image color very well. Is that where you got this color from? ​​

I got it from the starclan one, but i'll change it. -- Silverfur   skz  [ 11:07, 12/25/2018 ]

Understandable, but I think in this case, it should match the field guide images that it's meant to depict. You didn't do anything wrong, I just think it was a miscommunication as to what image you should get coloring from. ​

Reups! Does it look better? -- Silverfur   skz  [ 11:10, 12/25/2018 ]

She needs to be a lot more orange, just like the image from The Ultimate Guide/Cats of the Clans. If you need to, I can help you get an appropriate color.

I colorpicked from her head/neck. Wait i'm gonna reup and if it doesn't look good then you could help. Silverfur  skz  [ 11:41, 12/25/2018 ]

Reups The color looks unnatural imo. -- Silverfur   skz  [ 11:42, 12/25/2018 ]

It has to match what we're given, unnatural or not. She's still not looking orange enough.... I'll see what I can do, but given the lighting and how these are painted, it might not be possible to get a good pixel to pick from. ​​​​​

Humor me and see what #D9994A looks like. I saw where you colorpicked from the head, and I'm thinking there's a lot of light there in general. ​​​​​

Looks a bit golden yellow in #D9994A. Let's see how it looks  Silverfur   skz  [ 11:52, 12/25/2018 ]

Reups Looks okay I guess. Silverfur  skz  [ 11:54, 12/25/2018 ]

I think it also might be your shading color...each pixel in her image is a totally different color, making picking extremely difficult. Leave it like this for now, and if someone else comes along with a better alternative that still looks ginger, then go ahead and change it....her art doesn't really show her as pale, but more of a neutral ginger coloring. ​​​​​​​​​

Hmm... disregard this if you are the OA of the set, but I don't think the pelt colour matches the queen. Or vice versa, unsure of which one will be considered the first in set, but the colours should stay consistent to match. —

I'm sorry Potato, but the nose is filled in a hot pink color and the tufts are edged with black. I don't see what you're talking about. 00:10, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

I think Potato is asking why the head tuffs appear lighter than the rest of that area. 03:28, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

I can't see shading, might be my screen. 𝕊𝕚𝕝𝕧𝕖𝕣𝕗𝕦𝕣  𝓼𝓴𝔃  [03:46, 12/27/2018 ]

Oh sorry, I misunderstood. The description says they have a lighter tuft of fur on their head. Also, may I have a second opinion about the shading? I can see it pretty well. 13:30, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

While I agree the shading is visible, it almost seems overblurred. Defining your lightsource should help, perhaps by defining the light on the hind paw, ---> front leg and haunch? 02:03, December 28, 2018 (UTC)

Reups. I tried doing what you said, Vec, and also added more definition to the shading itself. 18:36, December 28, 2018 (UTC)

To-Be Blanks ~ For Approval
Alrighty let's do this. I'm only gonna post one at a time for my sanity sorry ;u; 01:03, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

Please do not apologize for posting one at a time, it is obviously going to be stressful if you do two, so do not overwork yourself. Not sure if this makes any sense, but the blanks look a tad crooked. I am not really sure how to explain it though... does anyone else know how to? 01:07, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

Nice! Could you make these a bit bigger? They’re small, not much bigger than the kits, and lots of us want those bigger. Not too much, just maybe apprentice size? :) 01:10, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

I think I know what could help the crookedness. The stomachs right now look really unnaturally flat. Their chest (rib cage more specifically) is supposed to stoop a little lower than the stomach. If you need me to, I can highlight an example. 01:14, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

Another thing, the pose is a bit stiff and rigid. I know this was the original pose, but it is almost unnaturally rigid with how the joints are positioned. 01:17 Thu Dec 27

Reups Took longer that I thought, but how's that size wise? @Sun, I'm honestly not sure how to address your concern. And @everyone, any red lines you are willing to provide, please go ahead! ^^ 02:42, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

Maybe make a small line for a mouth, kinda like the deputy blank? :) 02:47, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

Hm, might just be me or the coloring, but the shading along the lineart seems to be leaking pretty much everywhere. 15:34, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

You did the stripes amazingly! But, Define shading all over except for the tail. And since you're still a kit iirc, until a kit is promoted to apprentice it should be For Evaluation, but correct me if I'm wrong. SquidwardPlays 15:50, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

On the topic of shading, is it tinted? Tinting it with a color might help me see it better. Potato Flakin (talk) 16:16, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

It would be 'For Evaluation', yes. Also, make the stripes thinner and add more of them, per the leader alt it needs to match

There needs to be more white in between the light brown. The leader alt also appears to not have any dark brown on it, so remove that. I forgot to say this is lovely Cloudymoon!Potato Flakin (talk) 19:29, December 27, 2018 (UTC)

In 'dark brown' do you mean the stripes or the base colour? Because he Have dark stripes if you zoom in CloudymoonTheCat

It was a good go! However, there are large issues to be addressed. None of the colors seem to match the Medicine Cat Apprentice that is on the page. First in the set it has to be matched.
