🎉THE CLANGEN CREATOR COMMUNITY GATHERING🎉

We just wrapped up our first event over on the CCC discord, a banner featuring cats from a bunch of our server members! Everyone drew a cat to represent their blog and now they are all having one big gathering together. Version under the readmore with labels and tags~

This was such a fun event and we have many more planned, come hang out with us on our awesome discord server! You do not have to have a comic or blog in order to join :3

Updated designs for the cats we’ve seen so far

Admittedly I wanted to go more bold so plus I felt more confident with giving them more hair plus expansion on the clan ranks

[shiftingvalley]

Apologies for not posting, family health stuff happened and it took more of my mine and me wanting to redesign some cats as well

I’m open to questions about the cats and lore of the world in the meantime
