So... Snakespots seems nice :)) This is fine :))

Sorry for the death fakeout! I usually hate them but this was too much fun to pass up! Burnet gets to live, and I'm sure there will be no cost to this >:3

I gave this a lot of thought but decided Lilac gets to cry on screen bc-

*checks notes*

-full realism is boring, characters who don't emote are not fun to read in a visual format cx

Oh yeah i binged House MD while doing this page and finally finished all of it and now i need to find another silly medical drama to watch XD

Next Previous First Telling Lie-lacs?

Meet Bat! He has an edgy af design which is immediately counteracted by him having 1 braincell he is now sharing with Dart

His mum seems... hmm... (u get a cookie if you can guess the gist of the conversation between her and Lilac- it's not nice) Also Bat is a little bit based off a kid I taught who was missing a leg. She wore a prosthetic in the pool and one time stood up mid-lap holding it over her head and said "my leg fell off!" and i was like "oh... what do you normally do when this happens?"

Kids can adapt to anything and I think that's cool.

Oh yeah u can read Kindred of the Mammoth on Comicfury btw!

In which Pounce's panic attack is interrupted by my FAVOURITE LITTLE GUY!!

U will learn more about him in part 2 uvu

Fun fact, I was gonna have Pounce stalking a giant pleistocene Pika but literally cannot find any reference to how big they were.

And then i realised pika are just,,, insanely tiny,,, so i used a marmot instead. I like marmots now, they're so chunky!

I drew Pounce with proper sabers by accident, big cats have milk teeth until they're 1yr old, whoops! Let's say it's uh... an effect... from baring them... being stressed out... yup

Sorry for the delay, on top of The Horrors I got concussed u-u

Not sure when the next page will be bc I only have 1 buffer left aaaaa

Me: Kindred will have a simplified style so i can be fast

Also me: *slowly drawing closer and closer to White Cat Gold Plains level of detail bc i can't control myself*

.... also this page Literally has two white cats in gold plains oh my god art imitates art

Oh yeah, Smilodon time!

I have been having fun working out ways to differentiate the Fleet Fangs and Ice Fangs, besides just "one has bigger teeth". So they get more bearlike shapes and lips + the hypothesized extended gumline down the sabers (they also use boar and sow like bears rather than tom and molly like cats)

LORE TIME LORE TIME!!! (Also my favourite art so far in that last panel yay) Someone ages ago asked about their afterlife and the answer is! Well! This isn't Starclan that's for sure! Also meet Snakespots, they seem nice and not suspicious c: Good job to that Anon who guessed that Ice Fangs were another sabercat! Smilodon is present at this time and I'd be lying if i said I wasn't super excited to finally draw them >:3 Who is that getting bodied by an Ice Fang, you ask? Well, that would be telling uvu *squints* did tumblr eat the quality or are we ok??

I'm sure everything said this page is totally valid information that should be taken at face value and nothing should be questioned bc Snake and Burnet are very reliable narrators who would never go into the story and tell lies uwu-b

[mammoth-clangen]

Next Previous First Tyro Quiver and Flashback guys! The old tom is Thicketberry btw, he was the leader when Burnet was 2 seasons old c: (he's also a trans tom and comes from a different clangen playthrough I did for fun cx ) Lilac and Pine have a really fun dynamic tbh, I think they're cute uvu The last panel was added as an afterthought but i think it was a good one bc Important I like the colours on this page, pink good uvu-b

Omg hello all 7466435 new people!? ty Moons of Dewclan for reblogging me so i could steal your followers rjhbrhbrh

[mammoth-clangen]

Next First (u are here) Howdy! I decided to download Clangen and now it's taken over my brain so here's the result. I went through a homotherium phase last year and wanted to use some of the Intense Worldbuilding™ i did, while modifying it a little for Clangen. So these guys are Homotherium serum, where my other headworld is H. latidens. Bc then i can say "yeah these guys are across the Bering land bridge and the lore is different dw about it uvu" if i ever continue with my Eurasian idea at a later date c':

Oh and I decided to kill most of the 'clan' for character development, yay >:3c (tried to fix the formatting so Hopefully nothing explodes)

Im so torn on how I feel about these colours. They're very bright and I can't decide if it's pretty or garish cx

Poppy and Lilac get to have a chill moment though, I think that's nice c:

I wish I had foreshadowed this better but yeah Poppy was always planning on leaving once she was well and the cubs were big enough. Now she's not, which is good bc I like drawing her uvu

Begging people to teach me how they draw characters interacting with each other. I feel like mine always look like they're clipping through each other's mesh and bouncing off, rather than being organically close >:/

..... uh oh... uh... rip my fav nervous fluffball

stay tuned for part 2 (it has my fav art so far) >:3

I finished 3 pages this off-swing, I'm so proud of me. So you get a weekly page instead of fortnightly for a change uvu-b

What else did i have to say here....

Oh!! I designed a little season icon, so those will be included from now on (may go back and add a Winter one to Moons 0-2)

If u can tell what species Poppy has hunted in the first panel u get a cookie c:

Also Quiver is growing a face now, im so proud of her, good job bby!

Me: I'll cull the Kindred down to 3 so i don't have many characters to deal with!

RNG: *immediately throws 5 new characters at me*

Me: ....

I like the colours in this one uvu

Sorry everything is sad, im working on moon 3 rn (keeping 1 moon of buffer) and i promise there will be more than just sabercats being depressing on main c':

This moon is very self indulgent, almost every panel has some silly paleo detail that makes me happy cx

Burnet, honey, that kind of sick isn't contagious...

Did you know "graveyard/ grave" specifically refers to like, specific organised human religions? Hence "burial site" not "graveyard", there's a fun fact cx

Yay for babies! Also yay for streamlining designs. Lilac and Quiver have been tweaked a bit (and Quiver will continue to get tweaked as she grows) to make their markings easier to remember.

In game, Lilac is a med cat, but RNG says he's bad at it. Works for me, bc in cannon he is not a healer officially yet. Also, herbalist and wounder are two different specialties a healer may have. Herbalist is more medicinal and gathering, where Wounder is "removing dirt from injury/resetting bone/cleaning etc"

[mammoth-clangen]

(-🤷)

Bat, you are an adorable lil lad! And also, your fur kinda reminds me of a ribcage-

Ty anon! People seem to love this little lad so enjoy him being a goober uvu

Idk if this is intended to be an invasive question but Bat doesn't find it invasive at all so 1/10 cx

[mammoth-clangen]

Itty bitty reference of everyone bc i am Tired of colourpicking from the previous page (and bc everyone has some semblance of consistent design now XD )

I drew this between posting Moon 3 (part 2 and 3) so sorry for the lack of Small Boi, he will be added when i get time + when he has a name revealed!

Fun notes!

- Poppy's short tail and Dart's nub-butt are both caused by the manx gene, Dart just has a higher expression! (it's dominant so Pine doesn't have it at all) - Burnet and Quiver have the exact same eye colour and very close skin tone - Pine's mullet will get bigger as he grows but it's important to note even as a baby bc i think it's funni - Poppy looks like a unit but is mostly fluff, Burnet is actually stocky - age can be at least partially determined by how yellow someone's teeth are lmao - Quiver's angry eyes started as a joke but stuck around bc it's fun to draw - Pounce (and Lilac to an extent) is the only character with dark brown pads bc of a silly headcannon I have regarding fully white characters being polar adapted, most characters will continue to have pinkish red ones! (except new lil guy bc he has melanism) - I like to imagine Burnet isn't piebald but actually has a somatic cell mutation similar to bloodmark horses. Why? idk, i think it's fun, and also genuine piebaldism comes with health issues - everyone has different ear tufts bc i think that's cute cx - Lilac is tall

has ANYONE noticed the sclera thing yet? No? ok

[mammoth-clangen]

△ @ Burnet: Is there something going on between Lilac and Poppy?

invasive?? mby 5/10 just bc she has to contemplate if she's been third wheeling this whole time unknowingly...

Be kind to her she's queer and a bit dumb cx

[mammoth-clangen]

@ Lilac: Why the long face?

Rude!! Rude Question to this poor horse man!! he could also have said "my whole family was killed by ice fangs but that would be depressing

Invasive like... 6/10? it's kinda just mildly annoying (i imagine the same level of annoyance as i have with people asking about my birthmark bc it's on my knee and NO it's not an injury have you people Never seen a port wine stain before???)

[mammoth-clangen]

invasive ask time:

hey. Hey pounce. Hey Pounce, why’d your mom leave you 🤨

Hm... interesting...

invasive level 11/10, never ask this again or Pounce is gonna cry c':
