The Apprentices Left Behind

This is (from left to right) Dolphinpaw, Deerpaw, and Raccoonpaw. Deerpaw and Raccoonpaw are brothers (I know! Le gasp! Raccoonpaw is a TOM?!?! XD He looks like a she-cat...). By the title, I don't mean it in a mean way! When I say "left behind", I mean there use to be (counts on fingers) six apprentices, but at the moment there are three. One apprentice had got captured while two are on a journey because of a prophacy. So you could say they were left behind.

In this scene, well, Dolphinpaw is smiling at Deerpaw and Raccoonpaw, but Deerpaw is being a jerk and is trying to look away from her, even though he really likes her (Its the kind of crush where someone likes someone but acts like they hate them). But he can't help but smile a little. (I know cats can't smile!...or can they?!?! Oh well!) So Dolphinpaw is transfering her smile to Raccoonpaw, who it nicer then his older brother.
This is taking place at....I don't know. XD I decided it should be at the gathering place, but who knows.

This thing gave me a hard time! DX I warn you, if you try doing a background on the layer you made your drawing but accidentally mess up the drawing so you decide to undo and make the backgrond on another layer, but its been a while since you've started the background and you made the drawing on photoshop, you're screwed unless you have another tactic! DX And I had trouble with it for other reasons but I don't want to ramble even more. >___>
I decided to try a different way in making fur. It might be hard to see, but it was okay. I say Dolphinpaw's pelt was the best, I for some reason couldn't do the other two's pelt right. Well, enjoy! ^^

And sorry about my anatomy. I need to study more on cat anatomy. >____>
