Description Oh yes.

I have to say I do believe this is the best picture I have EVER drawn, and its Wolfclaw!!

This is Wolfclaw's first appearance on my DeviantArt account, but I do believe he is my second favorite character in my warriors series, Thunderpaw being the first.

I absolutely LOVE this picture. Everything about it came out exactly how I wanted it to!

The whole time I drew it to this song: [link]
It is Wolfclaw's theme song if you're interested in those things x3 I'm usually terrible at picking them out but this time I think I hit the target right in the center! ^w^

Wolfclaw is (c) to Purrlstar
Art is (c) to Purrlstar

If you steal this peice of artwork..... well lets just say if you do, you will have a Long, slow, and painful death.
Have a nice day!~

okay just a question, but how do you get all the lines so smooth and curved perfectly if you're using a mouse? do u use curve? cause that's the ony way I can think of making it this good. by the way LOVE ur art, it's so awesome

Nope, I dont use any tools to make my lineart, its all freehanded with a mouse. (well I sketch too, so its not like completely freehanded xDD)

only reccently have I been using the straight line tool, and that's only for backgrounds or special effects. c8

Since you didn't specify comment of critique, I shall do a bit of both :3 Don't worry, I won't be mean and pick the whole image apart. There's just a few things that I can see right away.

First to focus on the image as a whole. Overall the mood of this piece if obvious; it's dark, moody, with a dangerous character as the main subject. Perhaps its a personal preference but I kind of like images like this. No nonsense, no massive amount of background noise, and just the main character in view. I like the posing here as it's very feline-like and really show this character is not only a cat but a tough one at that!
He seems to be both confident and strong and that shows well in this image.
The style here is neat even though it's one I have seen many people use before (kind of Anime-ish) but you added a twist to it to make it your own. Those eyes are beautiful and I love the shading on them :3 Very nice touch of details

There are a few things that stuck out as far as being a bit 'off' and those would be:
The shading. Although it's decent it seems a bit scattered and doesn't really give much form to the fur. You can tell you were trying to give the effect of fur but I don't know, it just seems a bit... dull [??] in a way. Not a HUGE issue here but still, perhaps working on defining fur a bit more would really make your drawings POP and give them a bit more character.
The second thing is where is his right hind leg? The pose would seem a bit more solid if we could see his right hind leg, but it appears to have either disappeared or is far too behind him to give this pose some stability. However, if this character is meant to have only 3 legs, please forgive me I didn't know if that is the case. If it is, please ignore this little tid bit.
Last of all, the markings. Although we get a general idea that he's a tabby cat from these markings they appear a bit stationary and very repetitive, although the markings on the upper left hid leg are really neat since they are much more varied rather than just a triangular shape.
Perhaps varying your characters markings (more like tiger stripes) rather than just using the standard triangle would bring more depth to the pelt and add a nice touch of realistic quality to him. Again, this could just be personal preference.
Overall, this is a neatly done image despite the minor (and I mean minor) flaws. Great job! :3

Wolfclaw appreciates the fan. He is glad another being knows he must cleanse the forest from the villains who betray their clans.
