Hi all! :wave:

I figured I should probably make a journal updating you all on why I'm so inactive. Well, inactive on this account at least.
Currently I've barely been on my main account at all, and devoting all my time to my Kennel/Cattery account: :iconcc-kennel:

As of right now I cannot stop drawing dogs, for cats were starting to become boring. I felt I needed to change up my art, so now I've been hooked on canines. Who would have thought, huh? I've actually discovered that dogs are 10x easier to draw than cats. I feel like the cat's anatomy is a lot more challenging than drawings dogs, and it's been rather relaxing. I'm terribly sorry for those of you that watch me for my Warriors fanart or OC art. I guess I'm taking a slight "Hiatus" from cats.
No this doesn't mean that I will never draw a cat again, in fact, most of the time I still find myself doodling cats in my notebook rather than dogs. But as of now, I'm focusing on dogs. If you're still interested in seeing some of my art I suggest going over and watching CC-Kennel. cx

As for my amazing FeralHeart friends and family, I'm sorry for being so quiet lately. I haven't been on Skype at all lately (honestly Skype on the phone sucks and it is a pain in the behind to use. So I've given up on it's lagging and glitching 24/7). I'm not on FeralHeart at all anymore, for I'm simply not in the mood for rping. I have nothing against any of you. In fact, I miss talking to you guys all the time. If you want to chat/contact me I suggest sending my side account a note. I'll be happy to chat and catch up. c:

That's all for now everyone! Thanks for reading, and I hope you guys can all accept my change in heart. c':

So a little update for you guys, though I doubt that it's really a significance to anyone.

Any ways, school started up last week, and now I'm starting my first year of High School. Things are a whole lot different than they used to be, so I've been a bit 'off' lately. I guess I'm still adjusting to the big change. I've also jumped straight back into cross country season, and man is it hard! We're running about 5-9 miles a day, as opposed to the 2-mile practices I did in middle school. So by the time I get home from my two hour practices everyday, I barely have the time to get online. I still love cross country though, and I'm already beginning to get used to the longer distances. The team is really nice too, so I really enjoy myself.
The point is, I really don't have much time to draw and post things to dA during the week. And when I do get time to go online, I rather spend my time doing something I actually enjoy. Which brings me to my next little update.

If you haven't noticed, I haven't been on FeralHeart for some time now. And the truth is, I'm relieved to be off of it. I've been a member of FeralHeart for several years now, and I've noticed a pretty significant change. -Not one for the better. Now before I start, I still love my friends on FeralHeart to death, and I'd never let it leave my heart.
I guess I've just been a bit fed-up with the majority of the community lately. People I used to know turned and have become monsters, and it's starting to get on my last nerve. It's like the whole game has turned into the food chain. Like a race to see who can know the most mods, and who can have the best roleplay. If anyone is any different from this 'perfect' model, then they are shamed upon and spat on. Last time I checked, it was okay to be different from one another. And quite honestly, I think the drama that's been flying around is worst than High School.
I mean, seriously people? Have you really sunk THAT low? 
I've really become sick of the fake smiles, and I haven't seen the point in coming online lately. I'm not bashing the game it's self, or the wonderful admins and mods that do their best to keep everything together. I'm just sick of the community.
I'm sorry if this upsets anyone, but I seriously hope this made some of you stop and think. I still love all the amazing friends I have on FeralHeart, and I hope we can all keep in touch. Thank you guys for not falling into the influence. I really love you guys.

So in the meantime I've been playing Pirate101. Some of my best friends are on there too, and things are a whole lot calmer.
Maybe all RPG games are like that. I mean, in MMORPG games all you have to worry about it advancing yourself. The community is a whole lot nicer, and I plan to spend my time there until the community of FeralHeart finally gets it's act together.

That's all for now friends. Thank you for sticking with me all the time. I'm lucky to have you all.

It looks like everyone is doing this now, so I might as well join in on the fun. c:

:iconsilence-of-the-stars: members only. 



So would anyone like some? I'll be opening four spots for hypokits with Applefrost. x3
First come first serve. Other cat can be male or female, seeing that it really doesn't matter with hypokits. xD
Just leave your character reference in the description. c:

1. Applefrost x Tawnyrain

2. Applefrost x Jaypaw

3. Applefrost x  Dario

4. Applefrost x Cottenpetal

I was recently asked to make a tutorial on how I draw cats. (Anatomy and such)
Never before in my dreams did I think of doing a tutorial, but it actually sounds like a fun thing to do.
Now, I am no cat anatomy wizard, so chances are things would still be off.
And besides, I know there are a lot of great cat tutorials floating around out there. 
But would anyone be interested if I made one?
If so, is there certain aspects of the domestic cat that I should focus the tutorial on? (Head, body, paws, etc)
Please, don't be afraid to speak your opinion! I won't be offended. c;
