How I draw Warrior Cats (or just cats in general)
Vložit

- I feel like this is quite the long-awaited video! I cover how to draw cats in my style. I know the title says warriors but this really goes for any genre of cat you're going for!
Feel free to skip to each section as needed, I'll label them below!
Steps:
1) Gathering resources: 1:14
2) Defining basic shapes: 2:24
3) Sketching and posing: 3:50
4) Defining your sketch: 4:38
5) Outlining: 5:11
6) Coloring: 6:07
7) Body size: 7:04
8) Shape language: 7:55
9) Expressions: 9:32
**disclaimer** I do mention tracing. I'd like to clarify that I'm saying tracing is okay ONLY when practicing. Or trying to understand shapes. I don't condone tracing over random cat pics you find online and claiming them as your artwork or selling them per commission.

This was very helpful :D
Your service is much appreciated 🫡
Thanks for the timestamps ^^
Tysm!!
Me: SCREW YOU STYLE, LOOK AT HOW BOOTIFUL ALL THE OTHER ART IS AND LOOK AT YOU
Me now: I EFFING LOVE YOU STYLE
i would love to see a tutorial of yours only on faces, i love how you draw the muzzles
I plan on possibly making one in the future! I already have a fur pattern tutorial planned for both the face and body :)
@@vixelzzz I was just about to comment! Lol. Thank you!
This is a beautiful tutorial. I have been drawing cats a LOT and they just don't look right. This tutorial is super easy to understand and now I feel confident in my cats. I also love that this tutorial can be applied to both digital and traditional art! My main oc looks so much better compared to how she used to look. Thank you so much. ♥
I'm so glad it was able to help! I used to use step-by-step drawing tutorials to learn how to draw when I was younger, so I tried to mimic the style of those in a video format
@@vixelzzz Hi! I was wondering what digital drawing software you use! I still don’t have a drawing tablet, but I want to keep in mind which one you use! And btw, I love how you answer to the comments sometimes which is something you don’t usually see!
For some reason I always give my cats long necks. And I’ve come to the conclusion that giraffe cats are just my style.
Should put a watermark on your art with "giraffe_cat"
I find it easier to draw cats with slightly long necks, Ima make it look like a giraffe
Maybe a big request but make one with an absurdly long neck and put it in a meme or smth.
I’ve been drawing cats almost every day for about 4 years and this was still helpful-
Uhmm.. so I am eating lasagna 💀
Was it good?
question: r u garfield
@@UnhealthyCatObsession.. Lol! Nostalgia 😢
How long did it take you
Wow old sport, orange and eating lasagna. Sounds like Garfield.
This was so helpful because usually if you search up how to draw a cat tutorial then you learn how to draw 1 cat but here you can learn so many cats in one vid :D
Please do more tutorials if you have time I would love to see them
I have a fur pattern tutorial planned for both the face and body, and I might do one covering just the face shape and eyebrows
@@vixelzzz Wow! I really can’t wait and sorry for the late reply lol
I started drawing Jayfeather with just basic shapes, and he already looks better than before
That rigged cat model now haunts my nightmates.
As a beginner artist, who can’t even draw a cat’s head good, this helped me out a lot! Thank you :D ❤
I have trouble when drawing cats bc they always look like they have the same body or head shape so they never turn out unique then the rest I draw, so this helped greatly.
Ur art is really cool I started drawing cats about half a month ago and ur style is like the style that I would like to have tysm for this tutorial all of the tips helped me alot :)
This was actually extremely helpful! I'm really trying to improve my cat art, and this video was definitely useful in the long run. Thank you for making this video! :D

I have a question what app do you use to draw these
Thank you! I've never been able to find a video that actually explains drawing warrior cats in detail. You have wonderful art and are definitely way too underrated!
I replayed this over 5 times,thank you for this video!
This is one of the best tutorials- I have been trying to draw warrior cats because I absolutely love the book series and this is the on ethat helped THE MOST. You are amazing x
This tutorial, as well as your channel in general, has seriously helped me in getting back into drawing and even gaining some confidence in my artwork, thank you so much! 💕
I tried it for my oc and she looks beautiful and in general a lot better than I usually draw her!! your tutorial was super helpful and I would love to see a genetic talk soon! always love seeing your art❤️
Oh my gosh. I seriously love your art style, it’s literally perfect. The fur is so bushy but not over the top, it’s clean, but pretty and just my favorite art style I literally can’t. Last night I watched so many of your videos, (really enjoyed the [Let’s Art] ones and learning about your Fogclan, and Valley/Oakclan!!
I honestly don't see anything wrong or anything you need to improve on when you draw your cats they look beautiful! I felt horrible when people could draw better than me and I didn't know where to start but now I see your vid I feel so much more confident about drawing. Tysm this really helped me! You don't know how grateful I am to find your channel. This was a big help to me tysmmmmm
THIS WAS SO HELPFUL!!! You're such a good artist and can explain things in a way that get's the point across but is also entertaining! You deserve way more subscribers.
Bro you were actually good at explaining the stuff every other tutorial that I’ve seen is so hard to pay attention to or understand but you make it so easy. Thank you.❤❤
Just wanted to say that this actually helped me a lot with drawing cats and other animals and drastically improved my art style in a way I didn't even think was possible, great thanks
This is the most informative Yt tutorial that I’ve ever seen, I’m amazed by everything there is to learn. Most of this stuff I’ve never heard of, therefore never used in my art. I tried it after watching your video, I realized there was other ways to draw cats that aren’t difficult. Thank you so much!!
Oh my goodness I needed this so much! Thank you for making this, as I will definitely use the tips you gave in the future!
I have just recently drawn my first properly shaped cat using the simple shape diagrams from the video. My drawing turned out great, thanks.
I've been needing a tutorial on how to draw cats, but I could never find a good one! This will help me so much! I will definitely watch this everytime I draw cats
Ive wanted a tutorial like this for years. Thanks so much for taking the time to create it! Ive personally only drawn dogs for most of my drawing hobby, but for a long time ive wanted to draw cats. Thankfully cats are simialr to dogs in shapes, but i still have yet to have the confidence to go into a full study of cats.
Also i totally agree with what you said about tracing. I wish there wasnt such a stigma, because tracing can be a good way to learn. When your learning something new you can use all the help you could get! (Personally the stigma discourages me from drawing and that sucks) so hopefully someday people will be nicer on others who trace ^^;
I have an art style I’m not happy with and this video helped me find out in more depth why, Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us! Your art style is adorable ❤
Cries in you have helped me SO much in drawing, you are such a great inspo! You are amazing! :D
Also the flintburr scene is so funny-
As a new Artist myself, I found this super helpful! I've watched other videos on how to draw just a sitting cat, and I did but- WOW! I love your channel so much! Thank you for helping all of us, new and experienced Artists! :D
You're actually the reason i started drawing warriors, i saw this video on my recomended again so i decided id say thank you!
OMG your drawingstyle is so pretty! i love your arts!
Amazing tutorial! And yeah i would totally be up to watch a video about fur markings and color!
It really helped! I haven't drawn cats yet, but this tutorial is telling me to start! Thanks for the tutorial and by the way, I love your style!❤ It looks so smooth and- and- JUST BEAUTIFUL
Okay this is seriously the best tutorial ive seen by far this really helped thanks!
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! I’ve been in the fandom, re reading the books and all that, but I just can’t take my eyes off those animations and arts, so when I decided to try and draw, I just didn’t know where to start! But thank you this helps SOOO MUCH
You! Are! A godsend!
I am NOT good at drawing and yet I was really really inspired lately to make a PMV of The Three, so this video is SOOOO HELPFUL omg!!!
I just remembered I made 3 clans worth of warrior cats ocs when I was in middle school. Haven't thought about this series in YEARS so I'm surprised this video is so recent. Thanks for the nostalgia. I might revisit this series after i find those ocs :)
THIS IS SO HELPFUL! I hate drawing warrior cats with the base as shapes, it just doesn't help me at all. But now I understand what I've been doing wrong, I also love your style!
You helped me so much! before this, I was just looking for the hind and front legs and paws of a cat. After watching the whole video, I learned and improved in what I was looking for and way more! You definitely helped.
So, I know most about the human anatomy and gestors, so I was looking for cat anatomy and basic shapes to start learning different animal anatomies.
This really helped. Thank you!
Here early!! I love your art and OC stuff that you make.
Tysm!! :)
I was so so desperate to draw okishh cats and this really helped! I went and looked up reference pictures and I was able to make some good looking cats! Thank you so much for the tips!
Thank you so much!! I’ve hit a road block I want to draw warrior cats fan art but I struggle with moving from drawing one specific thing to another so this was so helpful!!!
This actually helped me figure out my style of drawing cats! Thank you, no other tutorial has done this for me before! 😮
I was having trouble drawing cats this is very useful thanks
Hello there, great tutorial! I’de definitely *love* a colouring and shading one, the way you colour tabby’s is amazing! Thank you for the awesome video :)
Nice! This helps so much! I feel like Firestar might look a bit more like Leafpool but they’re father and kit, it looks great!
this really helped me ive been wanting to try drawing cats for a while but i never thought i could and this video helped me as im new to the wc fandom and have seen so much amazing art from many different creators and wanted to learn how to on my own
This video was fun too watch, and it was in general super helpful! : D
Tysm!! I'm so glad it helped
Ty! This really really.. really helped I just really like drawing animals like cats mostly cats and I never new what pose and stuff and when i finally thought of a pose I could never draw it so this really helped!
I Wanna Learn Your Style So Badly It Just Looks So Good 😭
I Hope I Can Draw Like You In The Future
thanks so much for this! ive always struggled with drawing even though i love doing it. this is going to help me draw the characters for my book a lot. thank you so much
I'll give it a try by the first time tomorrow. Your tutorial is really helpful. Ty :))
The way I do eyes and eyebrows is definitely inspired by you, I was using your style for a hot minute but the way I do heads and snouts is adjusting : - D
I’m working on an oc of mine and I’m hoping it’ll turn out well! This tutorial has already given me a lot to learn off of and I just need a facial one! Thank you so much!
for me, i've watched tons of drawing videos about people drawing roblox avatars... warrior cats.....
and for me this video itself was really helpful. Great work! xx
Thank you for the tutorial!! It was very fun and cute!! 🎉
I really loved this tutorial, i'm sure you will help me! I love it!
Thanks for this, im trying to find what style i like and i haven’t been drawing much so i thought id be good to start now so i could get practice in
This really helped me a lot, thank you🙏
TYSM I have been wanting to learn how draw warriors and this will help a ton!
I'm glad to hear that it'll be helpful!!
1:26 your cats are so adorable! I love this channel so much!
Omg this helped me SO MUCH like I did a pretty cool cat on first try after a bit of your studies and it's soooo cool!!! Thank you for the tutorial!!
I’m always looking at different art styles and trying to see how to draw like them. I love how many different art styles of drawing warrior cats there is! I can never figure out how to draw the little curves on my characters elbows and and back legs. I’m not sure what they call them but it always looks like their bones are broken or they’re in a awkward crouching position lol! This video is so helpful, I’ll try and draw more guidelines and skeletons. Also, what app do you use to draw and what brush do you use for all of the stripes! They always look so flawless and pretty. Awesome video!
So for the entire video I used the default brush pen in paint tool SAI. For the fur I just made the brush bigger and lowered the opacity and painted in the direction fur flows
@@vixelzzz may i ask what drawing program you use?
@@vanillakamiwell if it is default pen in paint tool sai is what used, then must be paint tool sai
Want to thank you for this video. Thanks to this, I created a basic mannequin cat that I can twist, bend, and mold. It finally clicked for me with shapes. I'll try to send a link to the piece later, when it's done, but again thank you!
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS HELPED ME A LOT
amazing!! thanks for the tut.
WOW! This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I can't think of a way to say thank you for making this video! It helped me a lot! ALSO: What do you use to draw on? I can't find a good sote for doing that 😅. But ANYWAYS! This was very helpful and I love it ❤
Thank you! This was very helpful! I’ll try and practice often! I’m already subbed! I appreciate this a lot! Thanks agian!
This was a really good tutorial it really helped me with getting use to. Drawing cats! Thanks
wow i love your drawings keep on your work☺
i always watch these type of vids to inspire me to drw! but this one was amazing and i fell in love with your style! subscribed!
Eeeeee that makes me so happy to hear!! Tysm
@@vixelzzz yeah np you deserved it!
honestly, this video really does help; if i study the poses in the game on roblox, 'Warrior Cats: Ultimate Edition' it helps me figure out the structure of cats and how to draw them
Yay, now I can hopefully learn how to draw, I’m trying to make my own version of the darkest hour book cover
I really needed this. I'm planning on making little movies on some books but I didn't know how to draw cats
I was just looking for tutorials and now am eager to try out yours!
I wonder what interesting stuff I can come up with
Hi vixelzzz , I just watched this amazing video , (thanks btw for doing it ) but I was just wondering what app or program do you use to draw them .

Late to this video, but I would LOVE to know what brush you used for coloring? Especially the stripes? Turned out so good!
God. I’ve been trying to draw cats fir ages. And this helps quite a bit! Been tracing a picture of a real cat for a while now. (As I know its wrong to trace actual art) and its turned out quite good so far!
THANK YOU!!! THIS HELPED ME SO SO SOOO MUCH!!: LIKE YOU HAVE NO IDEA!!
