I’ve been meaning to change my user here for ages. The original one was supposed to be a placeholder that i never changed since im bad with names. So! Now its going! This was a looong time coming to be honest, and boy does it feel good.

Hi, I have no canon cat art and have been stressing over a server I'm making, so have an oc.

For reference, I'm making a discord rp for some of my own clans n such. I basically gutted them and decided I wanted to do more with them. Originally, she didnt look like this, nor is this polished and 100% finished. Originally, her name was Sweetstar, and was a light tan and brown spotted cat. About the same height and disposition.

I put healer as a replacement because i don't wanna have a long list of stuff so right now, leader and medicine cat are one, and I gotta work out the kinks of that mess.

I'm still in the process of finding people to be leader/moderator, and only have.. One. So I guess if anyone wants to be part of it, and like.. Won't do stuff to the server itself? I'm not well versed in permissions and such, so I've been struggling to keep each clan as separate as possible and it's far, faaar from finished. I'm just too anxious to join a preexisting one from someone else, so I'm winging it.

But rn im only taking leader roles to be filled so I have more people there. Send an ask off anon or dm me here for my discord or something, I'm not.. Sure? I just have two other roles to be filled so far, so only two people will be added to the server right now, since its not finished.

There's no naming rules n stuff, just to keep it pg-13 and such, since the other person there is also a minor.

There's also a moderator system, so my friend is a trusted moderator and anyone joining to be leader will eventually be trusted, its just a buffer, so everyone's good.

So-- clans of the mountainside consists of tundraclan, duskclan, ridgeclan and hollowclan. So far duskclan and hollowclan have their roles filled, so tundraclan and ridgeclan are up for grabs still. If you pm me, or off anon ask me, I'll give you my discord and we can move there to talk about it more! Especially since I need to update the clan situations and such.

lil update- and sort of question?

I don't like to drawing in cars, its just. Uncomfortable. And I'll be busy comforting my cat. But! I do have a specific AU that id like to talk about. Specifically- a very minor fix it to avoid Hollyleaf disappearing, the family fall out after the fire scene. No gathering announcement, no ashfur murder. In fact, its more centered on him!

I'll be able to talk about that since I can double task while typing. Feel free to ask some stuff on it, either today or tomorrow, and I'll reply tomorrow!

Hey all- the next design(the hollytuft design queued for tonight) will likely be the last one for a few days!

I have to do some really deep cleaning before this coming thursday, as the rental company for where I live is coming to view the house as a whole. I'm going to be leaving for it with my cat, and all of his things so he doesn't get any extra stress put on him.

I'll try to doodle while we're out of the house, but he's also an old cat and I want to keep him calm, so I'll likely not be using my phone at all while we're there. Many treats will be given to him whilst we're in the car waiting!

(and don't worry, he does pretty well in his carrier, for a cat who's never really been in one actively. I'm not going to be leaving the car, and the ac will be on so he doesnt overheat. Hes going to have a towel padding the bottom and I'm going to be with him the entire time!

Photo for reference on what he looks like

hi uh ive been. Meaning to see if anyone would be opposed to me. Showing off some of my ocs?? Some of them dont get the love and attention I want them to have, from other people I guess? I don't have many people that know warriors enough to talk to me about it, or are interested in it anymore, so I keep all my ocs stuffed somewhere to stay somewhere for a long time until I get a chance to talk about them.

But also it would mean when I cant think of a design for a canon cat or a drawing I'd wanna do of someone canon, I could do it of my oc! Which means more consistent drawings relating to cats and such.

[official-hawknose]

Hi, hello, uh. I was wondering if anyone would mind if i started to lean further away from just character designs to just warrior cats stuff instead? Designs will still be active, but like. Not all my blog is, yknow?? As much as i love running it as just a design blog, sometimes I wanna rb some other people's designs, too.

I'll definitely tag everything all the same, as i already do, but still.

I just really wanna be more active in the community, and show my affection to other people's designs. I probably won't fill my blog with them or anything, I'll still keep daily queue posts, but i do kinda wanna be active.

I just.. Don't wanna lose followers in large swarms for not warning anyone that i might start doing that? I value followers and rbs a Lot, and asks. I've been on tumblr for years and never managed to get a following like this on a fandom-themed blog before. It's nice. I really, really love handling this and doing designs and such.

Also, i can promise everyone here that, yes, i do check notifications. If i see a reblog in there, i am 100% going to be checking it. Tags are my favorite to read, or additions and such. I love feedback and knowing what everyone likes. Which is why i made this. I am going to be updating my set up for looking at my page directly so it looks.... Better.

Also, does anyone want me to change my current queue system? I set it up for a post a night at nine for me, since it worked best with how i work and get designs out and so i can fill it for a week or so and then leave it a while, since a lack of requests means i need to find characters to design or redesign to update. What i mean is, i could probably set it up so it's two posts a day, or earlier in the day or something, if i have requests.

(Check the tags)

Okok: i need to come right out n say. Ive been A) running another blog unrelated to warriors which also eats my time up and B) will be somewhat vacant and very slow with designs because I'm saving up to get a leopard gecko!

I got to handle one and plan to save up however much I need to get one. Its on me since it'll be my own pet, and I'll cover either just the gecko or the rest of its expenses.

Yes, I may share pictures once I get one(who knows when, it could be after Christmas or after my birthday in March) but I will get one.

Until then, I'm likely going to be busy pricing and clearing a space for its enclosure and making sure nothing will be damaged in the process.

What is your youtube channel called?

Oh- I don't have one! Or well, I do, I just don't make videos. I want to make some speed paints, but a lot of programs are cheaply made or have a massive watermark, since I mostly use my phone.

I'll have to wait a while until I cab have any sort of recording/editing program on my laptop, though. Its old and. Kinda slow, so I wanna have something that doesn't crash when I leave chrome up too long.

If I'm still kicking around here when I do, I'll definitely work on more detailed stuff so there's some actual product to a speed paint or otherwise a video I might make. Not sure though!
