Note: This blog may contain spoilers regarding deaths and ranks! Please be wary, especially with the tags.

!!! Can I mint your art as an NFT or use it to train AI? !!!

No. I have a blanket ban across all my art for these things. I also don't allow people to profit off my art ie making bootleg stickers.

If you'd like to make physical copies of my art for PERSONAL USE (no money or valuables being exchanged) that is fine. Like if you want a sticker for your laptop for example and you make it yourself.

Can I use your designs?

Yes! No need to ask permission, I only ask that you provide credit! I also wouldn’t mind seeing whatever you create 👀

Can you draw [cat]?

Yes! I aim to design as many cats as possible to practice, so requests of canon characters are welcome. Please be patient though, since there's a lot of cats in these books and I mostly do these as quick lil practice things

Will you draw my OC?

Sorry, but no. This blog is strictly for canonical characters and my interpretations of them.

Can I tag your art as kin?

Sure thing

Can I draw in your style?

If you’d like!

What’s your opinion on [x cat/relationship/plot thingy]?

Feel free to ask!

[Anything regarding the morality of cat book stuff like incest and other hot topics]

I don’t want to discuss this, the only thing I’m here for is cat drawings :’) A lot of these sorts of topics are things I have no right to speak on and I don’t trust myself not to mishandle these discussions. No shame to anyone who does get involved in this sorta thing, but I just don’t have the time, energy or experiences to hop into it :’0

Saw an art challenge to draw Ashfur, Cinderpelt, Bluestar, and Crowfeather on the same canvas to see how easy it was to tell them apart - figured I'd give it a go!

Can you tell who's who? :>

...what does wcotf stand for...?

Warrior cats of the forest! its more of a... personal tag than anything, as a sorting method fjdhfh It could functionally stand for nothing also and have the same purpose

I can't tag everything as warrior cats since that would make kits/apprentices/loners/etc show up in the search, so I added another catchall so people could filter out the non-design posts :>

What's your opinion on Appledusk?

Hoo boy this one's a toughy! I haven't read MV in a while so forgive me if I'm misremembering anything.

The impression of Appledusk and Mapleshade's relationship I got was that Mapleshade was incredibly controlling - to the point where one of her motivations for having kits in the first place was to basically say "I own Appledusk, he's mine". Already in the first chapter at the gathering, you see Appledusk pulling away from Mapleshade and into Reedshine. I got the feeling that he had been trying to split up with Mapleshade, but wasn't given the opportunity/wasn't listened to. I don't remember if this was ever explicitly stated in the book tho so this might just be interpretation lol

He shouldn't have cheated on Mapleshade, that's a given. That said, I don't think his crimes even slightly matched with Mapleshade's an he definitely didn't deserve to be killed for it (or have his new mate be attacked! He cheated on Reedshine as well).

I also don't think he was too out of line to turn his back on Mapleshade after the kits drowned, since.... Well, his children had just died. Whether it was her intent or not, Mapleshade had the biggest hand in the kits' deaths at the time and without much else to go on, it makes sense he'd blame her. Obviously that wasn't exactly fair to Mapleshade in that moment, but it's also quite a bombshell to drop on someone and you cant expect them to act 100% logically.

I think Appledusk is a really fascinating character and quite nuanced, so it's hard to quite put into words my thoughts on him. But I do like him overall, even if I don't like aspects of his character.
