Well, this is my first charart... Morningleaf Fox Cub Wolf Pup 15:37, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Pretty good for your first charart, I only see a few problems:


 * Add shading and blend it, making it look real
 * Blend the ear pink and make it darker, it looks fluro
 * Add highlights on the pelt

Hawkey  Ready for action 17:22, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I can't see any shading, add some and use the blur tool to make his pelt seem for 3-D. And blur the ear, make it not as bright. -- Peacesong Click Here To Go To........My Talk Page 18:14, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

They're right. Make the ear pink a triangle shape in the centre of the ear and blend a little. Despite what Hawke said above, don't add highlights until you've got the shading sussed as it'll make it more difficult and the image may not even need them. Get the shading and ear sorted and then see about highlights. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 18:23, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

OK. I'll fix that stuff. Morningleaf Fox Cub Wolf Pup 20:00, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Reuploaded Can someone give me some tips on shading? I always get it too dark, and I don't know where to put it. Morningleaf Fox Cub Wolf Pup 20:11, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

I'm not really good at shading, either, but what I did was get the smudge tool, set the brush size to about 3 or 5, and then just smudge from the outline. (I did this in Pixlr.) And then I blurred it together by clicking on the blur tool and setting it to about 3-5. As I said, I'm not really sure about the best shading tips, but maybe that can help a little bit. Also, I noticed a couple of other things.

Icethroat21 Hi, how's the prey running? 00:11, September 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * The right ear is just a little bit darker than the rest of his fur.
 * Try blending the ear pink some more. The ear pink it really standing out right now.

Thanks! I'll go fix that stuff. Morningleaf Fox Cub Wolf Pup 00:53, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

Reuploaded Okay. Anything else? Morningleaf Fox Cub Wolf Pup 00:21, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

I think the shading is on the back, the hind leg, and where the tail connects to his body. And the back ear should be darker as well. -- Rain whisker 09 18:16, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

It needs a lot more shading. I can tell you used some, but I can barely see it. Icethroat21 Enter at risk 20:13, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

You've now blurred the whole outline. Make the ear pink smaller, more central and a slightly paler colour. There is a smudge of lineart above her nose. Unblur the outline and then make the shading thicker and blend it (without touching the lineart) Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 14:25, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

I fixed the ear, and tried to fix the shading, but I still can't get it right :( <font color="Cyan" style="background:MistyRose">Morningleaf <font color="Orange" style="background:PeachPuff">Fox Cub <font color="Yellow" style="background:LightBlue">Wolf Pup 16:02, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

Don't worry Morningleaf! You'll get it eventually - it takes most people a few tries. You've got the ear pink sorted now, which is good. On the shading, it's now the right darkness and thickness, just a little blotchy. You need to keep it as one clean consistent ine. Then blend the inside edges carefully so they start to run into the rest of the colour. Do not use the smudge tool though as this will make it streaky. Also, you need to remove the shading a little from the muzzle and a coupe of other places. At the moment you have shading following the whole lineart. Just choose the direction of your light source and then think about where the shadows would fall and put your shading there. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 16:15, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

Try blending the shading with the blur tool; in pixlr, the blur tool is the one that looks like a rain drop, and when you hold the mouse over it, I think it says "Blur Tool", but I can't remember...but that should blend it. I highly reccomend putting the brush size at about 3-7 (square), and keeping the strength at 100.


 * If you accidentally hit the lineart inside the picture, make sure to color back in the lineart pixels by putting the pencil brush at size 1 (circle or square, doesn't matter), and put the color to black. Then, just color where the lineart is blurred, and the lineart should return.
 * If you accidentally blurred/smudged it outside of the picture, then just put the eraser at 1 and erase the spots outside of the lineart.

I hope this can help some! And don't worry, you'll get the hang of it eventually! It just takes time and practice. :) Icethroat21 Enter at risk 18:37, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention this: there is so much shading on the front leg, that I can barely see its actual color. Try using less shading there. Icethroat21 Enter at risk 18:40, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

I agree with Icethroat. Also, you need to blend the shading.

Yeah, I really agree with Swallowtip, the need to be removed, you probably made the spots because you first shaded it, then added some more shading in some parts, so the shading is darker where the spots are. Remove the spots, blend the shading. -- Pan das ong <font color="white" style="background:silver">Proud Owner of a Imaginary Panda! 00:04, September 19, 2009 (UTC)

Use this diagram for how to do the eye:. Also, you're shading looks nicer now, but increase it a bit and make sure you blur the transition so there's no hard line. Darken the ear pink a little bit as well. -- Bramble ’-san'  22:14, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

Firstly, the neck looks a bit too thin, almost pinched, maybe you could make it a bit thicker. Also, I think there should be a bit more definition between the neck and the foreleg, it looks a little too smooth to me.

 * The legs are all different lengths. Tey get longer and longer towards the right of the image. The front paw which is bent in the action of walking should be shorter than the others, (because it is bent and therefore not at it's full length) but at the mkoment it is too long.
 * The body is slanted downwards (towards the front of the cat) This may look okay as you finish up the image without being adjusted, but you can have a go at making it more evn if you want to.
 * The ears looks to thin. Don't change the height right now, but have a look at the ears. Also, the back one should probably be on the other side. maybe just fiddle around a bit.
 * The muzzle - it just looks weird to me, no offense. Lots of it is out of proportion and place just within that small space. Open up an approved blank and these, and carefully chck the face, moving around the pixels until they look similar-ish.

My first leader and my first tabby. Comments? --<font color="Blue" style="background:cyan">Spottedwing 00:42, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

Here are a few things: It mostly just needs shading. The ear pink looks fine, and so does most of the tabby stripes. Otherwise, I think it looks good. Icethroat21 Enter at risk 02:16, September 12, 2009 (UTC)
 * Needs shading. If it's there, I can't see it.
 * The nose pink is too bright, it's more of a hot pink rather than just a pink. Try to lighten it some. But from the pictures I was looking at on Google images, brown cats tend to have either brown or black noses, depending on whether they're multi-colored. Try changing it to just a lighter shade of brown from the color of the fur.

The tabby stipes need to be longer in most cases and more varied. Add shading and blend it well. Lighten the nose pink. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 13:34, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

Your tabby stripes are too few and far between. They also are too thick and they all look alike. Put in some more and vary their length and look; I know warriors are a different pose but you can look at the approved tabbies for reference if there are no leader tabbies approved. Your shading also needs to be increased, slightly thickened, and the transition then needs to be blended thoroughly. -- Bramble -san  23:00, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

Blend the shading a lot more, and also, look at Brambleclaw's deputy charart, for example, to see how the eye needs to be done. Otherwise, it looks good. Icethroat21 Enter at risk 22:20, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Thin the shading out a bit and make sure it extends all the way down his back. Also, can you use the dodge tool (um... the one that looks like a circle on a stick) to add a highlight to the top of the herbs. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 17:03, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

Much better. All he needs now is you need to blend that patch right near his mouth, because it's just hard line where the transition is, and make the ear pink a more dark pink color than purple.

Reuploaded I've saved over the first version as the other was definitely most popular. Warrior: I've blended the shading as much as possible and have also blended the markings a little too. I've lightened the black lines to a dark brown but haven't darkened the shading. When I tried to darken it by just one degree it became so distinct and dark that it was impossible to blend. I have done a version with highlights though to try and make the shading seem darker than it actualy is. The highlighted version is now on the right, the normally shaded version on the left.

I thought M&S was making the cave-guard blanks...? These look great! But I think that the line where the muzzle connects to the neck looks a little awkward. I would change the line a bit. -- Rain whisker 09 22:31, September 20, 2009 (UTC)

(M)- Oh, I forgot to tell you Blackclaw that I decided not to use them becuase I became way to busy. O_o Sorry! I like these blanks alot, but something about them makes them almost look chibi-ish...I can't pinpoint it right now, but I'll let you know if I figure it out. Mosswhisker &amp; Steatlhfire 23:36, September 20, 2009 (UTC)

Haha, chibi? But yes, they do look rather young. I would hate to try and distort these images to try and make them look older, because they are beautiful now. Dawn, what do you think of making these our to-be blanks? They look like young cats beginning to enter adolescence. It's your choice, though. -- Bramble My Realm 00:54, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

I have to-be blanks reserved Bramble. I don't think they look to young. If too many people disagree maybe they can be soft-paws.Minnowclaw 01:19, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

I think they'd be great for soft-paw blanks. But Bramble's right, they're too small to be cave-guard blanks. Icethroat21 Enter at risk 01:39, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

We'll see what Dawn says, or if she can fix them to look older like the amazing artist she is. Minnowclaw, I'd like to see your blanks, if you are done with them. -- Bramble My Realm 01:59, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

Adorable! The transition from hind-leg to paw is a tad awkward, though.-- Darkhallows My den 08:23, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

Minnowclaw, are you making both tribe to-be blanks? Because if not, then you could do the prey-hunter to-be blanks and Dawnfeather could do  the cave-guard to-be blanks. If you're OK with that, of course. -- Rain whisker 09 12:34, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

Blackclaw: we're only having one set of to-be blanks. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 17:47, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

Oh... but couldn't you make two sets? It would be more work, but we're already making two sets of tribe cats, why not make two sets of to-bes too? Just an idea. Unless Danwfeather would rather make these soft-paws. -- Rain whisker 09 22:50, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

You know what, these are too good to just toss out and mine will never be like this. Dawn, if you want, they can be to-bes and maybe I can scratch something up to be soft paw's.Minnowclaw 23:54, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

If you are sure, I think I'll do that. I don't think that there is any point making two different types of to-be blanks as we have only meet about three or four. Could those who had things they wanted changed please repeat themselves? This article is such a mess that I can't find anything!

Well, I'm not really sure how to do a tabby yet, and I was trying different things, and I wasn't sure which of these two to put up for approval. Personally, I don't like either of them, but which one do you all like better? Icethroat21 Enter at risk 00:15, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

IDK. Keep the first one and put the shading you put on the second one on the first.Minnowclaw 01:12, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

(M) - I like the second one personally. Mosswhisker &amp; Steatlhfire 01:21, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

I took down the one on the left, because the stripes looked weird, and I like the one on the right better. So, what changes should I make to this one? Icethroat21 Enter at risk 01:36, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

I made the shading lighter, because I felt like it was too dark. Well, what else do I need to do? Icethroat21 Enter at risk 21:22, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

Not bad at all. She's a dappled golden tabby, right? That's what I see here, and she's very good. She just needs some more shading. On her back, legs, chest, and head, just run the burn tool (about 50%, on midtones, if you know what that means) along those areas and she'll be good. -- Bramble ’-san'  22:09, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

Wow this is ver ygood Hiddensun. But, like Brambel said, it needs more shading.

I don't know about everyone, but I find it keeps the shading texture able to make the original color darker without adding in gray. You can use whatever one you want. :) -- Bramble -san  22:49, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

I use midtones as i find highlights hard to blend on pixlr ^_^ Not everyone does though I'm sure. It's not a rule, just good advice for someone who hasn't done shading before. Sandy ~Dragonkit's Forest 16:45, September 22, 2009 (UTC)

I absolutely love this. It's probably the most beautiful charart I've ever seen! All I see is that you need to add more shading on her body, and that the shading on the herbs is too dark.
