Time for another round of ref sheets, and the final batch of currently-living cats, finishing off the designs for every cat currently alive in the books.  The last batch is just SkyClan cats, since the designs for every other Clan is done. Here to start us off is Bellaleaf!

You can find the reverse side of her design here.

For her physical description, Belleaf is described as having long legs and a chin that tapers to a point. She's also described as being taller and more angular than her brother Rileypool. I decided to make her nice and tall with a lean, oriental-type build, and her mom's thick but not super long fur. She has a clawmark on one ear from her first fight against the kittypets that attacked SkyClan in RF, a scratch above her eye from Dodge and his rogues in HJ, and more general scars from her battles against Darktail, the raccoons, Dodge and his cats, the Kin, ShadowClan, the impostor, etc.

For her pattern, Bellaleaf is described as a pale orange she-cat with green eyes. She is noted to look a lot like Firestar (though that could be the clouded mind of a nostalgic old tom talking, since it's from Ravenpaw's perspective). I gave her similarities to her mom's design, but also tried to throw a bit of Firestar in there, mostly in the brighter more saturated colors (though much lighter than his) and somewhat through her markings.

Overall, I'm very happy with how she turned out.
