Please read the description!! It may answer your questions. Thank you!

If it wasn't obvious, the character on the left is Snowfur, and on the right is Thistleclaw.

MAN this piece sorely needed a redraw. The original piece is the most viewed video on my channel and it's 4 years old.

The original piece:    • Separated in Death-Speedpaint  

I still hate Thistleclaw. Hate him even more now, actually. Thistleclaw apologists don't interact. This man was not okay, even before Spottedleaf's Heart was released. He was out for blood victories. He tried to teach his son to kill when he was a kit. He helped mold Tigerclaw into a monster. People think he'd make a good father when he all but condoned the near killing of a child?? Besides, Whitestorm turned out to be pretty great after Bluestar raised him. I don't know why people woulda wanted otherwise.

I started this piece back in February and then life dropkicked me into the void. But now that I'm in quarantine with so much more free time, I decided to fish it out and finish it. Which is why you guys see me go back and fix up the shading on Snowfur, lol.

    I ain't no thistle apologist, but boy do i love that fluffy man. I could go on a whole tangent explaining his behavior's and motivations (without making him seem like a good guy of course, because he's definitely a villain). Though the tangent would probably sound like this; Insecurity > arrogant mentor > early warriorship > jealous Bluefur > love for Snowfur > love for whitekit > Snowfur ded > thistleclaw meets Mapleshade and silverhawk in dark forest > thistleclaw trains whitekit the manipulation he learned from the dark forest > bluefur takes custody of whitekit and he angry and sad > thistle trains more in dark forest and becomes desensitized to others pain due to his own emotional issues and hells direction > trains tigerpaw and possibly sees himself in him because his own father was halfclan > manipulates tigerpaws insecurities with leopardfoot being like "eh whatever" > spottedpaw gets crush on him > thistleclaw manipulates her to dark forest for them extra Mapleshade points > spottedpaw leaves and he doesn't persure cause he intended it for the dark forest all along > bluefur become deputy > angry and jealous and seeking attention he fights patrol and ded Sounds more like circumstance in this explanation, but most of it was his fault. And thats only the events that happened, his mental state was far "eviler", he lost his empathy when Snowfur died and whitekit was taken away, he felt no more remorse after that. Even if he couldn't help that his brain became so traumatized he lost emotion, he still did those actions and it was his fault, since not every sociopath is a murderer and yet he was

    One of my favorite speedpaints growing up was your old one. Now, I love this even more than that one. You improved so much

    WHOA HOLY COW I was subscirbed to you on one of my old channels that I ended up deleting due to some fallouts, but you were and still are one of my inspirations that got me into drawing!
  • @flickrdraws
    I only just found your channel from this video and oh my goodness I could only strive to have this level of skill! Especially the shading/lighting, it's stunning. Keep up the great work!! <3
  • @river9603

  • @Somethingidk-
    FINALLY ANOTHER WARRIOR CATS FAN : 0 (whos ur fav character?)
  • I have an au where thisleclaw isn’t a horrible cat and is a decent leader. But yes THIS CHARACTER IS HORRIBLE AND DESERVES WHAT HE GOT.
  • @theflamestar
    It looks beautiful! Judging by the last video, I've noticed how much your style has changed over the last few years:0
  • @Viviified
    Wow this is sick! SO BEAUTIFUL! I absolutely love it, one of the best artworks I've ever seen of Thistleclaw and Snowfur! O-O
  • You're getting better each year!! Question- for like commissions is that a no for just OC's? I was going to ask if you could draw like Ashfur in Bramblestar's body from the newest books Erin hunter sent out- the broken code I think that's the name of the series... If not it's okay! Keep up the great work and no mater what don't quit what you love 💙🖤
