Description My Kit designs for 's competition
Or maybe just designs cause I went nuts with this. Aww man, you don't know how much I flipped when I saw Aowna post her entry for this person I've been hunting forever after losing the link to their description designs QwQ *weak yay*
Anyhoo, here's my entry for their comp! Designs for an amazing designer!


1.) Prefix: Basil  (Basilkit | Basilpaw | Basilstorm)

Written Description: A large, long-furred brown and white patched tom with a dark brown stripe running down his back and spine.
Design Notes:
- Despite what he looks like, he is not fat. That is all layers of fur that have piled up together. Underneath all that, he is actually just very muscular.
- His fur grows as he ages. When he's an elder, he'd probably just be a circle.
- The white crest on his chest also gets bigger as he ages.

Personality (Kit): A large lovable goof, Basil is the fun-loving and gentle giant of the duo and can typically be found playing outside the nursery being berated by his brother for his reckless beahavior earlier in the day, before laughing all his brother's worries off of course. Despite being generally easy-going and mild mannered though, Basil can become very protective over his friends and family, his brother most of all. But, at the end of the day, he'll just laugh everything off and let bygones be bygones. 
... He's a very in the 'moment' kind of cat and doesn't really think things through so will quickly lash out before realising that it wasn't all that bad. =w=

Predicted future (In RP etc): Basil probably won't have as much personal growth compared to his brother but he'll probably think deeper about his actions as he matures. As a warrior, he'll probably be a kit favourite and would not hesitate to indulge them by playing with them in turn. A gentle warrior who won't hesitate to fight for his clan regardless for his own health (hence the scars), loyal to the very end.


2.) Prefix: Sparrow (Sparrowkit | Sparrowpaw | Sparrowheart)

Written Description: A lean golden tom with a pale underbelly and tail with dark brown freckles scattered on his muzzle and rump.
Design Notes:
- Kinda as an opposite to Basil, Sparrow gets taller and leaner as he gets older. The fluff when he was smaller was probably baby fat, hahaha.
- His spots get larger and spread more as he matures. Note how the spots on his shoulder start to spread over onto his chest when he's an adult.
- The brown on his paws and ears is the darker brown too, btw. Every other speck of brown on him is the lighter shade.

Personality (Kit): Sparrow is a worrier. He's curious too but he's mostly a worrier. He cares a LOT for his family and hates to see them get hurt. He'll probably come off as grouchy and a total fun-sponge despite having a huge-ass heart though. More often than not though, he'll just go along with his brother's plans. In the few times his worries and fears DO come true though, he just looses it. He just goes from this serious, down to earth kit to a little worrying mess.
But, in the end, it doesn't matter how much he tries to act grown up, he'll always be around to play with his big bro.

Predicted future (In RP etc): The way I see Sparrow go is probably one where he grows to becomes wise and observant. As he matures and learns more about the world around him, he'll probably start to realise the line where his worries are valid and where he's being ridiculous. Quick to attention but still a serious long-thinker, Sparrow could potentially become a deputy with a cool-tactical head on his shoulders. A prime example that the smallest voice can be the strongest one, calm and collected in the middle of a storm, keeping everyone together.


And that's all. Wish me luck guys!!

these cats are adorable and their style is adorable   I red that sparrow gets more lean as he ages but in my personal opinion his lower legs feel a little long?
compared the the upper leg, in an average cat the front legs are split in half or the top one is possibly taller looking due to it connecting to the shoulder blade...? 
It might more because of the way he is posed, but none the less all the designs are amazing with lil' details, would have loved to see elder basilestorm as a fluff sphere

Aaahhhhh, the leg uneven-ness is my fault. You see, he was meant to be 'tensed up' in that last adult form (cause he's serious and stuff) and so he had these shoulder blades peaking up (like when he was an teen), just next to where that chest fluff starts. I looked at the skeletons while they were still sketches and was like: Yup. This works.
But then when I started lining, I lost them prominent shoulder blades because I got low-key lazy with the fur-layering after finishing Basil, which makes it look like his shoulders are lower than intended, which then makes his legs look wonky.

Man... I need to stop being lazy //rolls around//
And thanks man QwQ (I probs will draw a round basilstorm. Just cause)
