Very nice! Smooth shading near the rear?(No rhyme intended! :P) 21:37, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

Define the tail shading a tad, and define the light on <-- paw. Also, I belive there is leaking shading on --> back paw, and eye color leaking outside the lineart. 21:39, 6/06/2017

Reups Thanks Shypaw! And broken, the front paw you're talking about isn't supposed to have any light on it. ErmineGlow (talk) 21:45, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

Define the eye depth, maybe add some shading to the <--- ear (just a tad) and darken the nose colour? 22:15, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

I don't think there is any nose color, and if there is, define it a bit 22:33, 6/06/2017

Reups ErmineGlow (talk) 22:34, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

The shading appears to be leaking on the front paw farthest from us. Also, lighten the shading a little bit? 22:37, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

I'm confused with your shading placement. The shading on the tail, back, and chest/neck area indicate that the light is coming from <--- (from the right/behind the cat) while the legs, haunches, and head indicate that the light is coming from the ---> (from the left/in front of the cat). I believe you're going to have to switch one of these in order for it to make sense. 23:06, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

Reups I switched around the shading. Is it better now? --ErmineGlow (talk) 13:49, June 7, 2017 (UTC)

I think the shading around the belly and definitely the face shading need to be swapped now. Also, define the light on the closest hind paw.

Vec said that if I only switched on of the shading parts around, I would be good. I switched around the legs and haunches, so I don't think I need to swap the chest/belly and face shading. ErmineGlow (talk) 22:36, June 7, 2017 (UTC)

I made a mistake (mostly because I was super tired when I wrote that, but that's not important); the head shading needs to be swapped (covering more of the <--- face with the light coming from the <---). Don't only just take my word. That's why there are other people here. I'm bound to make mistakes (like I just did). Danny's got a good eye for critiques. As for the belly shading, I personally think it's optional (artist's choice) for this shading perspective. If you're keeping it, I think it should be swapped so it hugs the foreleg instead of the hind leg. Or you could make it just emcompass the lower part of the belly. 23:28, June 7, 2017 (UTC)

Reups ErmineGlow (talk) 12:16, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

The shading's leaking a little bit on the lower chest and the haunch, and I think the earpink might be layered over the lineart in ---> ear? 22:35, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

Rabbitfur (Star) - CBA
I'll just dump this here and fix up some things. Don't comment on that shoulder patch--I'll fix it up later.

Define the shading depth

the base is darker. There just appears to be a paler chest.

Define the tail shading Rainbowmistake (talk) 20:43, June 19, 2017 (UTC)chat

The stripes are darker too, I believe. 21:26, June 19, 2017 (UTC)

(Just gonna jump in and add that it appear as though you used to pale color as the base, and the base color as the stripes, to clarify.)

I think the elder has texture <span style="">23:00, 6/19/2017

Can someone clarify the texture thing? I looked to see if there was texture, and I didn't see any.

I definitely see texture.

Also, the paws might be pale too, but you probably want a second opinion considering they're under shading on the elder.

re-up Texture = pain in the butt.

There's gray inbetween the tail bend <span style="">00:48, 6/20/2017

Smooth shading depth and the stripes on the head should be thicker. This is really cute, Star. 00:53, June 20, 2017 (UTC)

The chest and muzzle need to be pale. 01:54, June 20, 2017 (UTC)

re-up I left the face stripes alone because I'm pretty sure they're the exact same thickness. (thanks Shy)

There's still that grey patch where the tail is wrapped. <font face="Brush Script MT,cursive" color="451179" style="font-size:17px;text-shadow:4px 4px 4px #b278ed;">C o s m o s n e s s 🐾 <font face="Papyrus" color="3a3ce4" style="font-size:10px;">#cat lady 15:31, June 20, 2017 (UTC)

Perhaps you could lighten the shading on the head? The stripes kind of fade into the shading. 16:56, June 20, 2017 (UTC)

re-up

I think the stripes are still a bit lighter than the other images. 17:35, June 20, 2017 (UTC)

Maybe add a little shading to the <-- ear, seems kinda flat imo. This is nice my dude Star, good job <span style="">03:53, 6/21/2017

Maybe smooth the shading on the base of the tail, or lighten it? Either would be good.

re-up For some reason the stripe layer's opacity was like 60 and I was so confused. XD

Smooth the flank shading a little? <span style="">21:23, 6/21/2017

Define shading on the <-- shoulder, lighten tail base shading. Also, smooth the shading on the bottom of the chest.

re-up 10 layers and counting. ..

Define the --> ear pink, and there appears to be gray leaking onto the <-- ear pink, but that might be intentional

re-up I think the gray you're seeing is the shading.

Good job, this came along very nicely. Comments before approval? 03:53, June 26, 2017 (UTC)

Sorry, but could you define the tail shading? I'm having issues making it out.

re-up That's what I get for placing the shading on the dorsal stripe.

Comments before approval? 00:26, June 28, 2017 (UTC)

Sorry, but could you curve the flank shading with the shape a bit more, smoothen it out, and define the shading depth on the face and ear? 00:40, June 28, 2017 (UTC)

re-up this shading hates me

perhaps expand the flank shading a bit near the tail. this looks lovely. 04:11, June 29, 2017 (UTC)

re-up Thanks Patch. I like your chararts too, they're so pretty!

Can you define the eye depth, and expand the shading in the middle part of the > side of the chest a tad? :)

re-up Probably just fix the eyes later.

CBA?

Define the shading on the tail. I think the stripes are a little softer on the other images, too. 15:26, June 26, 2017 (UTC)

Quickly wanted to pop in and say that the stripe closest to the < side on the tail shouldn't go all the way across, as of the ancient, and also, I think the stripes on the haunch could be smudged out slightly more in a rough-ish way to give more of that paintbrush effect found on the kit and ancient

Define the eye depth a lil <span style="">21:46, 6/30/2017

1, the image needs to match the warrior. 2, is this reserved? And 3, I'm pretty sure only two images can be up at a time.

Sorry, i meant one image.

The lineart appears to be edited

I suggest you to take a look at the tutorials. The image looks over blurred.

De-thumbed and removed alignment. Also the image is still named wrong.

Excuse me if I repeat anything, but the shading could be defined <span style="">11:29, 6/26/2017

There is waste around the entire image, most noticeably next to the <- leg. I think the lineart is blurred as well. 15:31, June 26, 2017 (UTC)

I don't think the lineart is blurred, persay. I just think they painted over it. I could be wrong.

i'm pretty sure they used a photoshop filter for the entire image. if you're using photoshop, you can undo the filter with the history panel :) otherwise, unfortunately (i love this style of linear art lol) the linear art needs to look as it was. nice image btw. and i think for convenience, I'll sum up what everybody has commented on this image since its quite a long wall of text and nobody wants to read that, so here are some immediate concerns with the image as pointed out by the others:

1. make shading a more visible shape also has to be more blurred (convenient way is to use the blur tool at 100% strength) - brokenfoot

2. try and self-study the tutorials to match up to the PCA standards for the art - fix girl

3. fix the linear art. the convenient method to do that would be to use the history panel to check when you used the image filter and undo it- my comment in a nutshell 18:34, June 26, 2017 (UTC)

What do you use for your shading? Also, there's an extra space in the file name after "star". 19:33, June 26, 2017 (UTC)

I would take the normal lineart and paste it over your current lineart, get rid of your current lineart, and bam, you have regular lines.

Also, Please don't align your images. 20:31, June 26, 2017 (UTC)

You still have this image to match. As for the image itself, could you define your light source, smooth out and lighten the shading, and define eye depth?

You also still need to reserve this, or else it will be declined.

Re-Upload -- Emberstar  <span style="color:rgb(1,58,223);">  Floating in the stars of ember 08:46, June 27, 2017 (UTC)

The colors and design should match the other images. To remove alignment in source mode, get rid of the |right or |left that comes after the image name, and you should be good to go.

Your shading placement is contradictory. On the front legs, main body, and tail, it looks as if the lighting is coming from the left or ---> this way. On the head, it looks as if the lighting is coming from the right or <--- this way. I suggest, to make this super simple, to switch the shading from the left side of the face to the right side of the face. And remove some shading from underneath the head and move it closer to the ---> space underneath the head, closer to the lineart. 14:02, June 27, 2017 (UTC)

Define the eye depth, define the shading on the <- leg, and smooth the shading everywhere. 14:19, June 27, 2017 (UTC)

There's still some lineart missing on the ---> front paw and where the tail meets the main body. This is really cute. :) 17:22, June 27, 2017 (UTC)

There's also still missing lineart by the base of the tail. You problem should be fixed when you paste the lineart over your current, I don't see why there's still missing pixels.

Smooth the shading everywhere, the stripes on the main body should be a little thicker and there should be more of them, the stripes overall should be more smudged, there are several lighter pixels near the lineart everywhere, and there is waste below the -> side of the head. I think there is texture on the silver too. 00:34, June 28, 2017 (UTC)

Yes please! Also any tips on stripe duplicating? -- Emberstar  <span style="color:rgb(1,58,223);">  Floating in the stars of ember 20:34, June 29, 2017 (UTC)

Hey Ember! below is my answer to your question. while i am writing this, i'd like you to keep in mind that there is very little that one can teach you about art and i'd like to first and foremost emphasize that nothing improves you more than practice. you chose a very difficult image to match as one of your first images- although nothing is better than a challenge! this image has gone far from where it started and it shouldn't be hard to take a step further from where you are now. If i were to match this image, these would be the steps I would take.

1. use layers. literally its the most useful and convenient tool in any art program- when i do projects for art class i can use up to 80 layers just because of how useful they are. im noticing you are blurring the linear art, which is a huge issue that can arise if you don't use layers because you are forced to edit everything simultaneously. the problem can be easily avoided by using layers because you can edit your stripes, your shading and your linear art separately without having to mess up another component of the image. the layers panel should be found on the right hand side of the art program and there should be a a small icon of a blank piece of paper on the bottom right that allows you to create new layers. once you have done that drag the layers up and down to place them below or on top of each other and draw in each layer accordingly. i strongly suggest you to experiment with layers with random stuff to get a hand of just how useful and convenient they are.

2. I will try and immediately observe similarities in style across the images and attempt to match it in my own image. so first of all i will notice that the stripes are hard edged, meaning that they aren't blurred. I would approach drawing them by using a soft-edged brush without smudging or blurring them. (in photoshop, you can adjust the "hardness" of the brush in the panel on top by clicking the display with an image of your brush shape and size. in gimp... i forgot XD) I will also notice that most of the stripes are relatively thick and taper out (which is a slight issue on your current image, because the stripes on the legs and the head aren't thick enough) and therefore keep most stripes at around, say about three pixels thick in general? in conclusion: thick, tapering stripes that have a jagged, hard edged look

3. for the placement of the stripes, the only advice i can give you is to Really try to observe and copy the placement of the stripes (you really only have to match the elder image in this case, because it is facing the same side and therefore should have the same stripes placement. download the image, zoom in, and observe it thoroughly, it will help you a lot). try and think how you can transfer the placement of the stripes onto the starclan blank. what i find convenient and easy is to match the stripes body part by body part. for example, i usually start off with the head and will try and copy the placement of the stripes there; then i will move on to the chest, body tail, etc. a good way to possibly think about it is to try and visualize what the same cat sitting in this position would look like: if the same cat in the elder image were to move to an angle of the starclan image, where would the stripes be on the head? the haunch? the legs? i'm afraid there's not much that can be really be said about stripe placement and what can only really be done to improve is to practice, practice and practice again. if you really are struggling, i will gladly create you a redline for reference! in conclusion: observe, picture it, and draw it. improve by practice. art is very difficult to teach and art class is absolute hot garbage.

4. f**k texture

There's some waste outside ---> side of the tail, and there's a tiny bit next to the last jagged chest fur lineart. Also I think the tail shading is leaking a bit on the white. 19:45, June 29, 2017 (UTC)

Declines due to lack of reservation; it's honestly supposed to be reserved before posting, but since you didn't do it with a reminder, gotta do this. You're welcome to repost or continue to use this section after you reserve it on the chart.

I'm sorry but I'm a bit confused since I don't have a spot on the chart? Can I just add myself or...? 18:30, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

Pretty sure it was because you were inactive for a while, Finch^ <span style="">18:38, 6/30/2017

Regardless of why you were removed, you're allowed to just add yourself in the chart, (and if you want), rejoin the project. Even so, you still need a reservation before posting in the project or not

make the stripes flow more with the body shape. For example, the stripe on her front leg is just a straight line across when it should be curved.

Proud of you on how many images you got done^ Maybe ask Snowed for her warrior or kit <span style="">07:50, 6/29/2017

I'd gladly give Shy the file, but keep in mind that I only use Photoshop and have no way to convert .psd files to anything else.

Maybe give her the hex codes for the textures and colors prehaps? They seem a bit off. <span style="">10:40, 6/29/2017

Actually, no, they really don't. They're not really all that far off and considering Shy and I shade differently, I'd say the colors match well enough. The only two things that really don't here are the stripes and the unsmudged white.

Expand the white on the chest a little bit? I feel like we would see more of the chest at this angle than on the warrior. 13:56, June 29, 2017 (UTC)

I think the stripes should be thinner on ---> front leg? 13:19, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

Shy, if you'd like (and if you don't mind waiting until Saturday), I would be more than willing to make you a guide of sorts as to what the stripes would look like using her other images. If you'd rather do it yourself, that's totally fine. I know her pattern isn't the easiest thing on the earth.

Voila, my first charart for this project. :)

~Wafflepaw/heart of BlogClan~ 16:14, June 29, 2017 (UTC)

Not bad for your first image! However, there's waste on the upper back of him, the image is named wrong, and I think the stripes need to be a bit more. . . smudged? Look at these two for reference.

Define the shading, this is good Rainbowmistake (talk) 16:56, June 29, 2017 (UTC)chat

Define the shading depth, and there appears to be some miscolored lineart, mainly on the tail and legs. Not bad at all. 18:14, June 29, 2017 (UTC)

Reuploaded I defined the shading, earpink and tail stripes and removed the waste.

Define shading depth and light on the tail and all four legs. 20:45, June 29, 2017 (UTC)

There's a little waste behind the neck, and can you try to desaturate the image a little? I feel like it might help the colors match more.

Also, this needs to be named File:Thistle (TC).warrior.png 00:38, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

damn, this reminds me of my early days of charart. nice job! add some shading on the ear and i was going to say the same thing as shypaw did but nvm lol. 02:01, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

Nice job on your first image! If you're having trouble with shading and light sources and whatnot, look here for tips :)

You think recreating those mickey mouse ears looks easy?

Well, you're wrong. Dead wrong... 02:09, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

Very nice! Can you tilt the mickey on the haunch at slightly more of an angle > way, like the warrior (and kinda the kit, too) shows it?

lmao i actually laughed rofl. can you define the shading on the legs? i'm having difficulty seeing it. 07:37, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

If the highlights and shading look too much like texture I can remove it, but it really doesn't have any.

Smooth the shading on --> ear maybe <span style="">09:02, 6/30/2017

Re-uploaded

CBA?

Hate to break CBA but can you just make it more clear that there's gray on -> ear and also add some white to <- shoulder. On the queen the gray on the face looks like it's only on the muzzle and on this it looks like it stretches to the forehead (not sure if there's anything you can do but decided to add it in anyways) maybe define what's gray and what's white on the tail, it's kind of hard (for me anyways) to tell the difference between gray and shading

Re-uploaded Ok so there wasn't really much I could do about the tail, but I receded the shading a little. And I don't really know how I could make the gray "more clear" so i just redid the ear gray (doubt it really made a difference but seriously, the ears on these blanks are tiny). I didn't change the forehead because it clearly stretches on the warrior and that image is first (i think).

The tail looks like a plastic halloween thing you'd find in the bathroom of a costume shop ngl. (I used highlights btw, forgive me for being awful at solid cats)

Dull the highlights a smidge prehaps <span style="">07:43, 6/30/2017

please don't comment on the shading- I know it's bad. I'm gonna transfer this to my laptop tomorrow and redo the shading... actually may try and replicate Shypaw's shading that she had on the previous version; I liked that.

I think the stripes are softer on the other images.

Probably just my screen but the colors look like they don't match. Also define the shading on the head. 15:59, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

I thought Snowed said not to comment on the shading o3o <span style="">19:47, 6/30/2017

the sharpclaw has a stripe higher up on the neck which I think would be visible idk 20:51, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

oops!! i didn't see that. 20:53, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

Mind defining the eye depth a smidge? Also, on the ancient there's at least one stripe that doesn't go all the way across the chest (I think). This is very pretty. :3 23:43, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

Reuploaded Lol I only saw Spooky's comment so I'll reupload in a minute

Reuploaded Hmmm

nicely matched! however, in respect to the shading, the image looks a little 2d rn- which can be fixed by expanding the shading area literally everywhere on this image 03:54, July 1, 2017 (UTC)

Reuploaded Thanks, shading expanded

ok the problem with the shading is that you basically shaded the entire outline. It doesn't honestly have a light source. remove some shading from the left/right depending on where you want your light source to be.

Reuploaded Okaay I cleaned it up but I'm pretty sure it's fine? Source is pretty much straight on, but if you still think it has problems then I'll redo it

i do believe the light source was a problem previously, but now it looks fine overall- it's just inconsistent on the head and the back. on the rest of the body, the light appears to be coming from the top left side, therefore the shadow should fall on the right side of the head. in addition, there also should be less to no light on the back (along the spine, i mean) because the light should be visible there unless the light is coming from a really low angle, which it doesn't look to be, observing the shadow on the head and the paws. TLDR, i suggest you to swap the head shading around and remove the shadow along the spine of the image for consistency in light source. 09:18, July 1, 2017 (UTC)

Reuploaded Ok I left some shading on the back just because that's the other side of the cat, and I'm not sure if I added enough shading to the right side of the face so lemme know

As usual, went for sharp shading. I'm really proud of this. :D Mods, I accidentally made a duplicate file with the white wrong name here if you could delete it. Sorry and thanks. 01:14, July 1, 2017 (UTC)

The brown looks a little duller on this than the apprentice, which I believe is first in the set. Idk if the apprentice has highlights or something on it, so if you have the file and that's the case, don't mind me. 01:21, July 1, 2017 (UTC)

The shading seems a tad flat on the front leg farthest from us. 01:26, July 1, 2017 (UTC)
