When Thunder Crashes Masterpost

Newtclan Start

Allegiences: Newtclan Moon 0 |

Territory maps: World map, Newtclan Territory,

Posting Schedule: 1 page every monday (will take breaks/skip days as needed) and lore posts whenever I feel like it/people ask! ON INDEFINITE HIATUS

Ask game v1 | Ask game v2

(BTW, This masterpost will be constantly updating)

TAGS: (More tags will be updated as the story progresses)

#update- comic page update

#dev log- usually worldbuilding, but it's just my process of thinking about a lot of different things.

#newtask- Newtclan related ask (asks are always open for any character, or even for myself about the comic! I encourage them, but I cannot guarantee I will always answer them)

#wtcask- asks that have to do with the WTC world in general!

#newtclan- anything Newtclan related!

#lore- lore about the clan, or the WTC world/culture!

#characterlore- this one speaks for itself

#reference- character reference sheets!

#writing- posts that are just writing

#others art- this speaks for itself

#not wtc- anything not related to wtc

#my fic- essentially the same tag as writing, but this is to differentiate if it's my writing or someone else's!

CWs- content warning for Canon typical warrior cats (violence, blood, death, kit death, war, etc), arguing, implied abuse, cursing, depression, grief, gore/blood, heavy gore, horror, and murder. Be aware of that when reading.

Most important cws are: cw: arguing, cw: aggressive animal, cw: gore, and cw: aggressive dog

Ask/Fanart policy: I love asks!! I absolutely encourage them!! about the characters, to me as the writer, and especially about the world in general!!! The same goes for fanart. And if you do make fanart and I don't see it, don't be afraid to DM me with the post! I never wanna miss anybodies art 🌟

Notes from the OP-

First and most important, this world does not behave like a normal warrior cats world. The spiritual system of this world is almost completely re-done, and it will be explained through lore posts or through the comic. There is also different vocabulary too. The most important new terms being the Helil and the Exiled. these are similar to Starclan and the Dark Forest, but definitely tweaked.

Second, expect to see the other clans in the area! I love my world and I want to show off every bit of it.

Third, there will be lore drops about the world in writing outside of the comic! this can be seen in wtc lore, or my dev logs!

333 Follower event pt. 2: DESIGN CONTEST

Part 1: dtyis here!

Long time waiting, but here it is! Again, a HUGE THANK YOU for getting me and this comic this far!!! I cant gush enough how much I love all of yall amd how happy I am that you guys like these silly kitties as much as I do. So! I want a little guy that I can carry around to always remember that! Without further ado, the actual prompt:

This is our base, Breeze! He's confident, playful, and lives off the wonderful joy of creation. He can be anything he wants, and anything YOU want too!

Away from the theatrical introduction, I want this base to be SUPER open ended. You dont have to confine yourself to drawing a cat! In fact, I do WANT you guys to reach out. Make him anthro, make him a monster, make him a pickle for petes sake! (It is still thumbs up if you draw him as a cat though, im just leaving the door open<3)

Rules n more stuff below the cut :3

Rules:

- NO AI. I feel like this goes without saying, but just to be safe

- bases are allowed if you MANUALLY colour in the design. No picrews!

- as said earlier, go crazy with customizing the design! I only ask that you keep the core colour palettes/vibes in mind.

- submission must be a fullbody!

- can submit multiple designs! If they're not super distinct keep it to one post please

- @ this blog with your entry, and tag it wtc333

- CONTEST ENDS AUG 6TH!

Moods to keep in mind when designing

Like I said earlier, im making this so I have a little guy to remember all the love yall have given me. Im going to treat him like something precious to keep in my pocket, lmao. Whatever yall design is going to be special to me<3

Foxy's Clangen Artfight Mass Attack Role Call!!!!

Are you hype for artfight?? I sure am!!! One of my goals this year is to make my first mass attack, and I want to fill out a gathering type scene with as many kitties as I can!

Who can apply? Anyone! The focus is on Clangen OCs, but any warrior cat or similar OC will be considered. Non-cat clangens are welcome to apply too, but I will accept a limited number of these since cats are my strong suit <3

Fill out this form to apply!! Everyone can submit 2 characters <33

I'll be streaming my attacks on twitch, and plan to do a few marathon streams working on this mass attack! I'll post here when I go live so you have a chance to see your kitty being drawn :3c

[dustdevilclan-clangen]

My submission for @wtclangen's DTIYS! Foxpoppy is so close to catching that fish. I believe in you! Barleyleaf is just watching. Originally I was going to have him doing a thumbs up, but I couldn't figure out the pose. I also decided to try something new with this! I didn't draw outlines for any of the stripes, only the white patches on Barelyleaf. The posing was a bit difficult, especially Foxpoppy's hind legs, but I'm still happy with it! Congrats on 333 followers, hiatus or not!

And for the return doodle, here's Deputy Eaglepatch.

[wtclangen]

YOOOO TY FOR THE ENTRY!! I actually really love how you painted the water!! The ripples look so cool :DD

my submission for @cccdiscord pride quilt event!

Ik pride months almost over but better late than never ig-

[ambert88ths]

for the event hehe! my ipad died so i did it with my very limited supplies :/

i think the fish got luckier than her oof.

@wtclangen

(btw this is the character i want u to doodle, u can simplify it lol cuz i lost my ref thats on paper and my other ref is on my ipad argh sorry LOL)

A fawn tortoiseshell, which a light strong contrast against her colors, she has heterochromia (her left eye is green, right eye is blue). Her left side of her face is the cream the fawn torties have and it covers her eye but doesn’t go as far as her muzzle or ears or neck, and it is jagged a bit like lightning. She is medium-furred with a long-furred tail. Her right foot has one white toe, and her left foot is the same color as her face patch but it streaks her whole paw and when it goes up to her leg it only takes half of leg and stops up until the shoulder blade meeting the white, and on top of her shoulders she has a white patch of fur. Another patch is at her tip of her tail.
