I love visiting people who have some kind of pet reptile because they're always like "would you like to hold the reptile" and I'm like "of course I would" and then the rest of the conversation happens with me just holding a random reptile and the reptile Has No Feelings about the situation. They always just sit there, probably vaguely wishing to return to their heat lamp but clearly exuding an energy of This Might As Well Happen. and then I put it back in its enclosure and go home and the reptile very clearly has no strong feelings about the situation.

Forest of Secret’s ThunderClan! I genuinely love drawing for this little allegiances series so much, it’s nice and simple and helps keep me drawing at least one little thing a day! Fire and Ice <-

Design notes and headcannons for new cats/ updated cats under the cut!

Sandstorm- I really didn’t change anything because I really like her design already so she’s just a little bigger as a warrior!

Dustpelt- I gave him slightly bigger cheeks and rounded him out just a bit! I like to think the older he gets, the less concerned about being tough and scary he gets as he matures

Brightpaw- oh I could say so much about Bright and i will… I gave her a build similar to her father, Lionheart. I know during the writing of the first few books, kittens and their parents weren’t really super important, as seen by the kittens who just vanish and how fathers weren’t important until like halfway through the arc, but her looking like her father is so important to me, I think it plays into her survivor's guilt. She's this big cat, she should've been able to save Swiftpaw and defeat the dogs in her mind, but she still couldn't. She couldn't live up to the expectations that come with being the daughter of such a noble warrior. She couldn't honor her father's legacy by protecting ThunderClan. And i think that's something she has to cope with.

Cloudpaw- everytime he gets older I'm going to draw him more and more fluffy. He's gonna float away soon

Thornpaw- spikey, thorny guy. Before I colored him and I was just looking at the lineart he looked a little like a jolteon and it made me smile

Brokentail- I already had him designed for the 'not ThunderClan' part of this series that has yet to be posted so I'll save my talk about him for when the time comes. I will say all off those red scars are from Yellowfang. It's been about a decade since I read the first series and I can't remember if Yellow blinded him with like one clean strike or not but I like to think she absolutely MAULED his ass. His eyes are gone, she tore them out. She was so furious about what he had done and felt there was no other choice. So he has no eyes

Ngl I'm scared for the next set bc Ashfur (Ashpaw) shows up for the first time and I want to do him justice as he's so stupidly important book wise and Fandom wise but I cannot picture him in my head. Never have been able to. But I'll try anyway!

Into the Wild <- Forest Of Secrets ->

Fire and Ice ThunderClan! I know cloud is put in the ‘outside the clans’ part of the allegiances and Lynx isn’t listed at all but. They’re here anyway <33 I'm going to do ‘forgotten’ kittens when their siblings are listed- I plan to do Brindle’s two other kittens when Ash and Fern are listed in the allegiances for the first time

Design notes for the new cats under the cut!

Yellowfang- classic cranky lady! Yellowfang is one of those designs I couldn’t really imagine breaking canon for even though I wanted to. Anything I tried that wasn’t classic Yellowfang looking felt so wrong so she’s just Her !

Longtail- he has his nicked ear now! I intentionally made it kind of look like a TNR ear because I thought it was funny. Symbolic in a way one could argue

Fire and Gray- Warrior designs for them ! Big boys now!

Swiftpaw- I tried to make him look a bit like Tiger bc in my head, Tiger is also the father of Swift and Lynx. The poetic horror of Tiger killing his own son with the dogs he brought into the territory.

Cinderpaw- oh Cinder my lovely girl- I gave her bangs like her mom and little orange flecks like little flames bc of her name

Brackenpaw- Brackens are a kind of fern so he looks like a fern! I had so much fun with him and he’s got his mom’s face shape!

Cloudkit- beautiful fluffy cloud baby. Not much more to say <3

Lynxkit- why do all the random kits they name years later have cool names that are never used again? Lynx looked a lot like her father, Tiger, and if she had survived I think he would have heavily favored her. I think her death really disturbed Tiger and it caused him to distance himself from Swift. But yeah, Lynx!

And that’s all the new kitties! 4 cats were lost (rip Red, Spotted, Rose, and Lion) but 5 were gained!

The art I made for my Dimentio pin bc I’d never ordered pins before and wanted to try <33 It’s from December but school’s munching away at my time to draw presentable art lol and I wanted to post something

[pinata-candy]

new loo design just dropped. time to go back to not drawing her

[pinata-candy]

The Orange Disease affects more than cats, I promise

(Genuine mean comments about my pet won't be tolerated. I know snakes aren't super popular with some people but please do not insult or threaten my baby)

more mario kids yet again (tomatoes are thrown at me) Speartooth is a Yarid/Johnny kid even though that pairing does not take place in our little world- Yarid is dating a guy we made up instead, it just happened naturally, their interactions were really good in RP- but I still wanted to design a Yarid and Johnny kid bc I love them and their stupid drama the 2nd one is Sunny, she is Mack and Knife Guy's adopted daughter, she hatches from the star egg! Since you get a sheep from the mystery egg I thought it would be fun to put a sheep in the star egg too- she's a dream sheep (cannot believe that there was never a sheep species of npc or enemy in dreamteam, I had to fix that)

Pantala tribe sketches I’ve been sitting on for a while that I haven’t finished bc I’m so out of practice with drawing dragons- minus leafwings!

@weepywhalewatcher so sorry for the tag- but you’d asked on my last wof post about concept sketches but I didn’t see it until today!

[pinata-candy]

Freak alert

[pinata-candy]

Happy new year, here's another one of the freak kids! I think this is the only drawing I have of her bc she gives me so much trouble. She's a genetic nightmare bc Dim is half human half siren and Geno is 1/4th dark star

[pinata-candy]

I'm gonna draw everyday this year that's my resolution (I will not survive winter)

Into the Wild ThunderClan!! These are 'canon' world designs for me! I've been working on a personal rewrite for my own entertainment (mostly fixing the family trees) alongside my WOF rewrite, but these designs ignore my family tree and follow the canon one! -> Fire and Ice

Design details and explanations below!

Bluestar- I wanted her to be like. somewhat regal looking, somewhat serving. But I also wanted to try a like, reverse colorpoint? It didn't turn out how I pictured in my mind, might have to revisit

Redtail and Spottedleaf- they are twins to me, I wanted them to look similar no matter what, I really like how square I made them. I also wanted to drift away from overly like, fem spotted- I have no problems with people who make her design overly fem coded but I personally do not care for it

Lionheart- Is a lion

Tigerclaw- is a tiger. Tiger means orange. get Oranged boy

Whitestorm- silly old man to me. Colorpoint like his mama, I wanted him to be very whispy, like a storm

Darkstripe- I wanted to get like. sleezy king's advisor energy. I think I did a good job with that

Longtail- I wanted him to look like a serval! I adore Longtail

Mousefur- wanted her to look like a lil mouse <33

Runningwind- I wanted quick, whispy shapes like the wind (and for him to look like sand. Can't help myself. She's a runningred baby all day everyday to me) I added the eyelines that cheetahs have bc he's a fast guy!

Firepaw- CRINGE BABY!!! wanted him to look flaming!

Dustpaw- I struggled with him bc when I think of dust I think of like, dust bunnies and kinda fluffy shapes, but he isn't a fluffy guy! Though, dust bunny dusty sounds fun. Might have to revamp him lol

Graypaw- droopy and soft and friendly! Gave him cartoony friend eyes bc it felt right. Looks like his mama!

Ravenpaw- tiny, weepy little guy. He is so cute

Sandpaw-I wanted tough, sharp, and swirly bc of her storm warrior name, and when I think storm and wind I think of swirls!

Brindleface- ok, I know brindle is a kind of pattern but when I hear the world brindle I think of like, crinkly shapes? So I tried to make her crinkled somehow

Willowpelt- droopy like a willow! I know willows aren't purple but I associate the word with purple? So she's purple n green! I love her design

Speckletail- I admit, didn't have much thought on her. Just made her speckled

Frostfur- snow, frost, cold girl- wanted her to have awesome snow and winter vibes

Goldenflower- Golden flower = sunflower, she is a sunflower <33

Halftail- really no thoughts about this guy but I like his shapes

Dappletail- she gives me like. old wealth vibes. High class old woman who is kinda mean. Tried to get that across. Don't know why, I really don't even remember her beyond her weird 'relationship' with Stormtail and how she died

One-eye- I wanted to make her kinda sharp and tough

Smallear- Old man looking cat bc he is an old man <33

Rosetail- I want to draw a full body of her one day bc I can picture a rose looking tail in my mind but until then, she just is pink and heart coded

Patchpelt- wanted to try and make 'stitches' along his patches!

That's everyone- some of these cats I could picture in my mind, some not at all but this was so fun. I can't wait to do more!

Annual Mario Christmas post! Happy holidays!!

[pinata-candy]

More of Bleck's cringe baby. Temora is probably the easiest of the next gen kids for me to draw because of how critter he is
