Hey gang, this is thankfully not a “im burnt out, no more Promiseclan” post. Buuut burnout is a thing and I’ve been working on restructuring panel styles and some story beats planned for the next few moons so we can finally pick things up and not be stuck on each moon for 9,000 years.

The ending of this little moon 1 sequence is probably going to be abrupt just so we can move things along finally. But it will be incorporated into the lore. Thank you for your patience and understanding!! 🖤

MOON 1- Great Expectations (Part 2)

<- PREVIOUS | NEXT ->

You know the drill. Open the cut to click a funny button.

A Burden Shared is a Burden Halved…. in most cases, anyway. Is this one of them?

(You get the strange sense that picking the “Challenge” option may have additional underlying mechanics to it..)

How do you respond to your apprentice, Shaded?

[DEFLECT] “Sure. Let’s go hunting.”

[STRICT] “Not now, Palepaw. Go help someone else for the day.”

[LIE] “I can’t until I figure out where I want to draw the border lines.”

[CHALLENGE] Maybe someone should know the whole truth…

[OTHER] Comment, Reblog, Toss a message in a bottle to the sea, etc.

Hi folks! It’s been a minute. I’ve had some new developments in the job department and needed the time to get settled in them <3

Im glad to say we’re back on track, and you’ll have your silly cult clan cats back soon ❤️

[mammoth-clangen]

Wip but I am enjoying my anatomy glow up!

Old on the right, new on the left.

I did a bunch of studies of lions in particular, and I think I have finally clicked how to draw the chest/neck/shoulder correctly. This also makes their necks look more proportionate (sabercats do have longer necks than lions but they shouldn't look as giraffe adjacent as the old sketches smh).

Note that these are just intended to be the everyman Fleet/Ice Fang (or everywoman technically). I also shaved them to show the proportions better, but they aren't going to lose their fluff in comic c:

Note to future Pav, steal the Ice Fang's carpal pads too

MOON 1: GREAT EXPECTATIONS (Part 1)

<- PREVIOUS | NEXT ->

Happy new year. Have the beginning of my “learning to draw backgrounds” arc as compensation for the wait 😔👍

We will get to the promised gathering topic eventually I promise guys. You just have to talk to your apprentice first

[promisedclan]

Ya’ll I have, no joke, drawn and redrawn these opening panels like three times. 😭

[promisedclan]

MOON 1: GREAT EXPECTATIONS

<- PREVIOUS | FIRST | NEXT ->

The initials panels may not be done but I wanted to experiment with doing a “title panel” of sorts with each section of a moon to serve as a buffer between sections.

In this case, “Great Expectations” takes place roughly a week after the events of “To Dream”

Everyone get hyped. It’s Palepaw’s turn to be the protagonist

[promisedclan]

Holiday festivities are mostly over,,,, panels soon :)

My little buddy

Oh my goodness!! Rainstep is such a cutie!!!!!

I love the lighter grey stripes/muzzle incorporated in with the darker grey. It’s a nice touch!

Clangen Ask Game

I was looking for a way for people to interact and was also inspired by @moths-wc-aus fanclan ask game from 2023 (so sorry I did rip a handful of questions straight from you)!

Anyone is welcome to reblog for their own clangens or add more questions if you’d like!

Send an ask with an emoji and oc/clangen cat!

😸3 random facts!

🌱What are some of their favorite hobbies?

💤Are they a heavy or light sleeper? What are their dreams like?

🐀Favorite prey?

🌲What is their favorite holiday/special event? (If your clan has them)

🐾Do they prefer a wide circle of friends, or a few close ones? Who’s their best friend?

🕸What does their family tree look like?

🌟Do they have any special powers or abilities?

🌷What are some of their quirks and other mannerisms?

🌳What do their life goals look like? Deputy, Leader, Healer/Medcat?

🏡Would they ever consider becoming a kittypet?

🦅What do they think of the nearby clans/groups?

🪲What do they value the most?

🌱What is their favorite location on the territory?

🧹Favorite and least favorite clan task/chore/patrol?

⛰Lore you’ve been wanting to share but haven’t gotten the chance to?

[promisedclan]

The second half of Moon 1 is going to be fun (It may or may not determine how Promiseclan does their “Gatherings” for the foreseeable future) :3c

That being said. I do have a question for what y’all think would be more fun going forwards for what I affectionately dub “Empty Moons” or moons where like. Ripplepaw sprains his ankle, Brownspot gives Shadedstar a compliment, and nothing else happens.

What content should go in “Empty Moons”?

A mini-chapter focused on getting to know a cat better

A mini chapter focused on developing relationship dynamics

A mini chapter focused on worldbuilding

A combination of the first three (Based on what’s most applicable)

[OTHER] Fax me, Send a carrier pigeon, whisper it in my ear, etc.

My own little freak....

Ohh I love your art style!! Chestnutheart is such a cutie too!! I love when people give their WC OCs bangs.

If you want to elaborate more on how they’re a freak.. 👀

[promisedclan]

To celebrate finally ending this part of Moon 1. Here’s yet another enrichment activity for you all!! Because I’m sure at least one of you has a clangen OC that’s more well adjusted normal suited for the Kindred’s position of Molly-Oracle.

Show me your guys,,,

MOON 1 (TO DREAM): END

<- PREVIOUS | BEGINNING | NEXT ->

These seem like side characters we can leave to their own devices for a while. Surely they won’t get up to any antics that impact the main narrative. 😇

Now it’s time to get to wrap up Moon 1 with interesting things the rest of Promiseclan is doing! like * checks notes * Um. Twigstripe complaining about not having an apprentice. And. * squints at writing on hand * Bluekit being mad Coniferpaw didn’t play with him this moon. Riveting stuff guys.
