Are daisy and Light somewhat related? Their patters look REALLY similar

They are! Lightstar is Daisysprout's father. The game generated them among the random starter cats it creates, and I saw it as a great opportunity to make them relatives.

Step-by-step slideshow of this page!

When I started brainstorming ideas for this clangen, I found that digital workspace felt... Too confined for me. It's not easy to adjust your canvas size so that it will give you just the right amount of space to brainstorm ideas freely. Paper doesn't feel the same way. I could go as big or as small as I need with my doodles, and if I'm running out of space, I can just flip the page and keep going without interrupting my workflow. Digital art, however, requires manually adjusting your canvas, sometimes making it too big or too small. It's not very convenient when you need to pin down the ideas in your head, but instead have to stop and tinker with your workspace until it's shaped right.

All of my sketches for CloudClan are done on paper. When I transfer them to the digital format, I may cut something out as I please or change the positioning of certain frames / characters / bubbles. Digital art is very forgiving in terms of mistakes and inaccuracies, but still stifling in its own way.

May we see a reference for Cranekit?

Here you go! :)

He's listed as a three moon old kitty because he was three at the moment I got around to drawing him haha. He's two moons younger than Peachkit.

Sorry for a lack of updates so far. Unfortunately, the thing I've got planned for the second moon started off way more detailed than I wanted it to be, and it's either doing it all in the same fashion (right now I'm heading this way, albeit very slowly) or re-drawing it from scratch (which would honestly be longer than finishing it by now). After it's done, I'm never drawing another background again. /hj

For some reason Tumblr won't let me answer any comments from any of my blogs (I know it's an issue with side blogs, but I can't answer from my main either)? I see them and really appreciate them, but every time I try to send a reply, I'm hit with an error :,) Sorry guys! If you encountered anything like this and know the solution, please let me know what it is. So far Reddit hasn't been very helpful.

MOON 1

...Newleaf is here. It brings fresh rain, and hope, and maybe something more.

After a disaster struck the clans of the living and even brought down StarClan itself, some thought the world has ended. But some saw it as a sign that they haven't been truly living as they should've, drowned in endless wars and pointless squabbles. Those who survived the catastrophe scattered in search of a new home, and one of those groups united to become CloudClan — a new home for those who needed it.

READ FROM THE START HERE! #cloudclangen

༄༅། ། Welcome everyone!

Here, I will try to recite the story of CloudClan in an attempt to hone my comic-making skill and find a simpler, quicker artstyle. Each moon, I will find something worth noting and draw it. English is not my first language, so if you notice any mistakes, please do correct me!

CW: Blood, Mentions of violence, Mentions of death. The list will probably grow as we go on.

Allegiances:

Lightstar — an upbeat and childish cat, despite his intimidating age of 94 moons. He used to be a mediator of RainClan, but when his home fell, he's been appointed as OddStar's deputy. Has a son, Daisysprout. #lightstar

Bleakdawn — Lightstar's deputy. She's responsible and reserved and usually serves as a counterweight to her leader's easy-going personality. Originally from LightningClan. #bleakdawn

Ashenfeather — medicine cat. Cold and impersonal, she keeps her distance from most clanmates, finding them more annoying than helpful. Despite this, she's very good at her job. Originally from SkyClan. #ashenfeather

Daisysprout — young warrior. Lightstar's son and a huge headache for everyone else. He's daring, borderline foolhardy, and doesn't yet have a good measure of his limits. Originally from RainClan. #daisysprout

Sunfin — warrior. She's very upbeat and lively, enjoys chatting with her clanmates and gossiping about different things. Her favourite pastime is pestering Bleakdawn and seeing the reaction. Originally from LightningClan. #sunfin

Mistleopard — young warrior. Despite his intimidating looks, he's quite shy and prefers being alone, rather than with his clanmates. He's been Bleakdawn's apprentice and also comes from LightningClan. #mistleopard

Peachkit — kitten. His parents were Oddstar and Goldenweed, and his mother died in the disaster that had befallen all the original clans, so Oddstar took his son with him. Unfortunately, Oddstar himself didn't survive the journey, so now Peachkit is very interested in his father's life and regularly pesters all the remaining Clan members asking for stories. #peachkit

Oddstar — the cat who gathered everyone together and founded CloudClan as it is. While he lead them most of the way, he unfortunately died before they found their forever home. But in death he discovered that StarClan still exists, albeit empty, so Oddstar became CloudClan's sole guide and protector. #oddstar
