Description Now that winter break is here I can finally do some art! Anyway, Fireheart and Sandstorm (from the Warriors series, of course!) romp through the woods. Original title, eh? Those stripes took a long time to draw XP

EDIT: I keep getting comments on this telling me that the cats' colors look incorrect. Please do not tell me this. Its a book, and I can visualize them however I wish. If you don't like the way I perceive them, please just draw them yourself. Any constructive criticism on anatomy, lighting, background, or any other things that could help me improve my art is encouraged.

Yeah I hate when people are like that, the thing is they should just love the art no matter how it looks

Sorry if I came off snappy--Its just that I get comments like yours constantly and I tire of it. I know you didn't mean to offend me, and you didn't. I know the way he looks on the book but I don't see him that way.

I love both ships, though I'd rather Spottedleaf be a medicine cat than her be with Fireheart--can't imagine her not being one!

I really seriously like the picture; their positions, their expressions, it all. But I just thik their colors are too pale. I always thought Sandstorm had the color that Firestar has in this picture (bright ginger) and Firestar himself was dark ginger.

cycle-of-menace In reply to Mintcho [2007-11-04 22:38:29 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Yes, I know it may not be *exactly* how they are described in the book, but this is how I've always pictured them. And I always thought Sandstorm would look a lot like my cat ([link] ) so I base her looks off of her.

Mintcho In reply to cycle-of-menace [2007-11-07 15:19:55 +0000 UTC]

She is cute <33 I love cats. And heh, wel, when I began reading the books I always imaged them a lot different from the books xD; So I understand you.

What an original title. Ingenius. xP No, I like the colors and anatomy. It was good that you made Fireheart bigger than Sandstorm.

But...I don't think Fireheart has stripes. *brace myself as you asplode for wasting your time*
