posing! what a hassle
based on this drawing by That's Offensive
poses are always a struggle, but the most important thing to remember with standing poses is the characters centre of gravity, the point where most of their weight is centered, a line with their weight equally divided going down is a good way to keep this right. without this the character will look unbalanced and it will ruin the drawing unless they're meant to look like they're falling. other than that, the illustrations that come with sewing patterns for clothes tend to showcase creative poses that still show off the whole outfit. I experiment alot just about every time I have to pose a character so this might not be very helpful but at least I tried ^^"" |

sorry it took me a year to respond, I keep forgetting I have this thread up and I've had near permanent artblock for a few months now but the important thing to keep in mind when posing a bipedal character is their centre of gravity (orange line), the character needs to look balanced with the line dividing their weight in equal halves, if the centre is off the character wont look like they could realisticly stand up and we can see that very easily. for me it can also help to imagine the skeleton of the character, it doesnt need to be too accurate, just some lines that indicate where big bones would be (pink on single leg sketches, blue on fullbody). Im still really bad at explaining my process but I hope the sketches can help ^^" |

Prologue Cover
based on this drawing by LoneShadowCat
This chapter doesn't actually take place on Faatasi, I wanted to iron out some of the end-game details before getting to the world-building (quite literally in this setting). Star will be the main character for this part but perspective will likely shift among the other players if need be. |
motivated by jealousy - moorclan 11
based on this drawing by webheadXD
![]() ![]() The elder tabby couldn't do anything but watch as the leader he once admired became someone that deeply confused him. He loved him, yes, but now it was mixed with frustration and hurt...As he attempted to deal with these emotions, ![]() Ravenface and Mistclaw announced that they were now in a relationship with eachother. On Mistclaw's part, he understood it to be entirely genuine, but Ravenface was only half-serious. His true goal was to get Arcstar to feel horribly jealous, surely seeing him with another cat would ignite something in the distant leader, right? Arcstar certainly felt something. He never really personally adressed his feelings for Ravenface. Seeing two cats that had been his oldest friends dive into a relationship together should have been an occasion for celebration. On the outside, he congradulated the two, but he couldn't help the horrible knot he felt in his stomach when he looked at the two...when he looked at Ravenface... Ravenface was having fun entertaining this little relationship, feeling like a little mastermind of emotions. But as the moons went by, he found himself playing into his fake relationship more than he realized. Mistclaw's was so earnest and kind, the elder tabby felt so safe with him...As they spent their days together,Ravenface ended up realizing how much happier he was just letting himself be with Mistclaw's. He felt a type of security and love he'd never felt before, and for awhile, he let himself forget about his jealousy plot. But not for long...he mulled over it in his head....this perfect cat had came into his life, and he used him. Everything they had together...was based on a lie...Ravenface knew he couldn't live with this guilt, at some point he would have to tell him. He just hoped that he wouldn't lose the trust of Mistclaw's...hoped that he'd still love him after he knew the truth... |

ODDCLAN: Moon 3
based on this drawing by mal du pays
Moon 3
It is currently Newleaf. Smokepaw gets dragged out to sea, but is rescued in time. He's got water in his lungs. he's wet now sorry --- “Hey, Pikepaw. Dare you to race me.” Smokepaw was upbeat as he spoke to the other apprentice. The brown & white apprentice looked to him skeptically. “Why?” She asked flatly. “C’mon. We don’t have anything else to be doing, so,” Smokepaw said, wiggling a bit in front of her. The brown & white apprentice’s tail flicked begrudgingly before she got to her paws, seeming to relent. “Fine, since I don’t think you’ll leave me alone if I don’t.” “That’s the spirit.” Without another word Smokepaw tore off, and Pikepaw sputtered before she booked it after him. “Hey, that’s cheating!” She called, keeping steady pace behind him as they ran along the shoreline of their territory. “Shoulda started running sooner then!” Smokepaw called back to her. Sand scattered under their paws as they ran, before Smokepaw turned and skidded to a stop. “Looks like I’m the winner.” He puffed his chest out. Pikepaw slowed to a stop and scowled at him. “You only won ‘cause you cheated.” She nudged him, and he grinned at her. “If we’d’ve started at the same time I could’ve smoked you.” Smokepaw laughed at that, and Pikepaw gave him a more firm shove. He stumbled on his feet for a moment as he toppled into the wet sand where the waves came in, and he giggled. “Hey, there’s no need for violence.” He got to his feet. “We should probably head back, we don’t want to make everyone worry.” “Yeah, yeah.” Pikepaw said, and the two of them headed on their way back. Smokepaw padded along the wet sand, recoiling a little bit at the feeling of it. As they walked, Pikepaw looked over to the sea, feeling dread as she saw a wave beginning to tower. She couldn’t react in time as the wave overtook Smokepaw and dragged him out. “Smokepaw!” She called, frantic, before she noticed a patrol led by Brambleminnow. “Brambleminnow! The waves took Smokepaw!” The brown tabby broke into a run as she launched herself into the ocean, locating the floundering apprentice. Despite the grey tabby’s squirming, Brambleminnow got a hold of him and began to head back to shore. Once they were a safe distance away she set the apprentice down, and Smokepaw hacked up water. “What were you two thinking?” Brambleminnow said, voice stern. “Playing near the ocean like that!” “We’re sorry!” Pikepaw said. “We didn’t know that would happen!” “Well, we need to get him back to camp. Once Smokepaw sees Glowfeather, you’re going to be explaining to Firestar about what happened.” Pikepaw shrunk down at the thought of that. “Yes, Brambleminnow…” |
