STARCLAW

This is a request from a close friend that I would also consider family. I have known Kristin for almost 5 years. We met through my Etsy shop. She has requested a few original concept characters from various shows like Lion King and Paw Patrol. This is her first Warrior Cats original concept. His name is StarClaw. He is a short-haired calico with dark blue eyes. He has a star shaped patch on the middle of the back. His front left paw is colored white while his right paw is black. His front paw pads are black. StarClaw has a longer than average tail that is carrot with black and carrot patches with the top of it being white. His back paws are colored black with his toes on his back paws are carrot, white, and black. His tummy has carrot, black and white patches. His legs are white and black with carrot patches. He has a pink nose and black whiskers and smile.

She requested StarClaw be standing just like all the other original concept characters have been. She also requested that his tail have some floral wire in it so that it is posable.
