Chapter 11: Rose Bushes

Prologue Previous/Next

I’ve been very excited for this chapter! If you’ve seen Foggy’s reference or Toyhouse page, you probably have an idea of where this is going, it’s not like I’ve been trying to hide it. I’m very excited for what’s to come!

I had a lot of fun with the backgrounds for this chapter, but I feel like I draw them in a different style every time. I try to keep backgrounds consistent between chapters (and within them) but it’s so different. It’s partly because I keep improving with each chapter that I draw, but I also just keep switching between different methods without even realizing it, lol. Hopefully I’ll be able to make them more consistent as I keep going.

Chapter 6: Blooming Flowers

Prologue Previous/Next

I have a love-hate relationship with this chapter, as in I love the art but hate the writing. I’ve changed conversation topics several times, and had to keep deleting and rewriting scenes, and I’m still not happy with it. I think the main problem is that it feels like filler to me. It has important set up for some plot points and relationships happening in the background, and I needed to show the main three getting their accessories, but the main meat of this chapter just feels kind of meh to me. I don’t know. At least I got to draw some fun scenes, though.

Anyway, more importantly, it’s Rookpaw’s first POV chapter! Now that Rook and Egg are older, they both get to be POV’s as well. It’s fun to delve into their thoughts on things and see what they’re up to. Eggpaw will get the next chapter.

Chapter 3: Foxes Roam These Woods

Prologue Previous/Next

Finally finished chapter 3, aka Foggypaw’s no good, very bad week. This was such a big chapter art wise, which is why it took so long (on top of having to design cats for the other three clans). Hopefully the next chapter will be quicker.

I totally forgot that this chapter takes place in the fall when I was colouring, so that cats keep talking about how cold it is and how the Moon Tree has lost all of its leaves while surrounded by a very green and lush forest. My bad. I didn’t notice until I was proofreading, and by then it was way too late to fix the art. I tried putting an orange tint over some of the bushes and trees, but I just couldn’t get it to work without having to completely redo the backgrounds.
