Hi, Im TheRaptorCat but you can call me Shadow, and I'm a cat that draws on the internet.

I mostly draw my own characters and cats! My content mostly consist of speedpaints now but I hope to do animations and gaming content in the future.

I post videos every two weeks on Saturday and shorts are randomly posted whenever.

ITS OFFICIALLY SPOOKY MONTH!!

Tragic news, I'm super busy so I probaply wont be able to do my usual halloween circus au art..

But thats okay! Ill hopefully release the short animatic this month and if im lucky a 1 minute long animatic, though I doubt I have enough time to start and finish it.

On halloween I do plan on re-releasing a VERY OLD speedpaint, from about 2019, assuming I can't finish my 1 minute long animatic, that and hopefully a short speedpaint so I can at least manage one "spooky" drawing. ^^;

College is absolutley eating my time rn TvT

Hello everyone thought Id share a quick channel update ^^

If you saw my recent short then you know my Sinking Town Animation comes out soon, I worked really hard on and im really proud of it so I hope you'll watch it! (Also its kinda like my 200 subscriber special!!)

After that im releaseing a three part speedpaint series that I mentioned a while back.

Im also currently working on 3 projects! A short animatic, another art showcase and a longer video that ive wanted to make for a while now 👀

Unfortunetly college starts again soon so I have no idea how long it will take for these projects to get finished though I do hope to get them finished before college :)

Heres a doodle I did on wigglypaint! ^^

All of my animation tests have now been uploaded to my channel 🥳

Please tune in next week for my college animatic "No Longer Home", its a project that focuses on extinct and endangered animals, while hinting towards deforestation. Im really happy with this animatic so I would be very happy if you watch it!

After that is my first full 3d animation "Mushroom Lights" it centers around a mushroom that comes to life and hears danger before escaping.

After these two big projects are released we will return to my regularly scheduled speedpaint every two weeks ^^

Some to look out for is a certain redesign series coming up 👀

Working on ref sheets and so far ive gotten 2 out of 6 and Chroma (my character im currently working on) is putting me through the ringer TvT

The initial sketch part was okay but planning his new markings, stripes, colours, saturation etc. Is killing me I should already be doing the lineart by now

The SKETCH phase is nearly done and its been like 4 days but after this it gets easier so wish me luck!
