Feelin sorta nostalgic lately so I redesigned Valentinepaw. She’s not much different but I’m still glad I did. All the Wildclan gen 2 protags (including Fawnleap and Fennec) hold a special place in my heart, but especially her and Deathstrike. Now that Wildclan’s over, I’m gonna lay out a ton of scrapped plot ideas I had for gen 2. Fennec x Deathstrike; this is basically a canon event that happened in Deathstrike’s days before joining wildclan. However Deathstrike only used him. Deathstrike’s a girlboss, and also a lesbian. Fawnleap simps for Breezeheart; yes. I was actually gonna do this. Shockingly, Fawnleap is straight. He’s just a femboy lol. But yeah I only scrapped it because Breezeheart died. Artemis showdown in the df; basically a super dramatic showdown. They capture Valentinebreeze and concentrate her in an emo pool of blood in some sort of cult ritual to draw the other protags there. It works and they fight, Deathstrike proves her loyalty, yada yada. Again I just wasn’t able to fit it in the plot, especially because naturally this was just my idea and I couldn’t force it on the whole rp. Those are all the ones I really wanted to happen but never got around to. Yeah I’ll probably draw Deathstrike soon. I want to repurpose these characters. Wildclan was really fun, but around gen 3 it started to lose its luster. Gen 2 was and always will be my favorite. Don’t get me wrong I still love Frecklefang and Violetskull, it just started to get a little too real ig, and kinda depressing. I don’t really know. Overall I love gen 2 and always will, even if wildclan leaves sorta a bad taste in my mouth. And gen 1, though that was a little wild. I think of it as a test, or a prequel that wasn’t as good as the main movie. TLDR I just really like gen 2. I want to use these characters for something else but I feel like tearing them from wildclan feels wrong. I don’t know how I’d fit them in any other plot line. Okay I’ve been ranting all instructions but I’m gonna continue. Valentinebreeze changed a ton. At first she was supposed to be like a heartbreaker punk character but I didn’t like that. Eventually I leaned toward a more sweetheart personality before I decided on a sassy fluffball. I love her. All the characters were a mess of sloppy writing. None of them were coherent. I still love them.
I’ve been doing a lot of textured brush art but I decided to go back to hard lines for now. I’ll still used texture a lot and I think it helped me grow.
