Backups are open. The thumbnail contest is now open in the server as well!

Applied, This storyboard is one of the most heartbreaking aus I've ever seen. I love this AU and it makes me feel so sad for Pinestar and Tigerkit. and Pinestar who knows that fate is cruel but can't help but carry the guilt all by himself. i like this man.

OH MY GOD I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO WANTED TO DO SOMETHING WITH THIS SONG AND PINESTAR/TIGERKIT SAME BRAIN CELL

Ooh this is fun! Deliciously tragic. Poor Pinestar and poor Tigerkit and poor Leopardfoot! Though it does make me wonder if something similar is happening in Shadowclan with Yellowfang and Brockenpaw (kit?) Kind of hoping it will backfire in making future _worse_ tbh, in the similar way to Laius thinking he managed to escape the prophecy of his son killing him but ending up ensuring it would happen instead. Except this time it's Starclan that makes things worse by trying to punish a child for something he didn't yet do.

OOH this au has peaked my interest!! Ive always had big feelings about how starclan told pinestar to kill his son. If they control destiny or whatever why dont they just like. Drop a tree or smth on him?? Why tell pinestar to KILL him, an actual kit who hasnt done anything yet?? Its baffling, i love this take on things :) cant help wondering if tigerkit might end up surviving the river if theres ever a continuation or sequel. Very excited to see this map come out i wish everyone the best!!

Just in case you don't know, this song 'Horse and the Infant' is from the Troy Saga! It's part of a musical called Epic, please go check it out if you're interested for more awesome songs!!

DUDE. THE THUMBNAIL IS ABSOLUTELY SICK. I AM LEGIT SO EXCITED FOR THIS

APPLIED? the storyboard and concept slaps the colors on the thumbnail are so captivating i am in awe. amazing work yall

Applied! Don't worry Tigerkit there's a trampoline at the bottom of the gorge.. I love this storyboard and EPIC it's so cool

APPLIED!! I’ve always wondered what it’d be like if Pinestar went through with killing Tiger, this is a super interesting au and the song choice fits perfectly!!

APPLIED! THIS THUMBNAIL GIVES ME SHIVERS. ITS ACTUALLY INCREDIBLE. It certainly made me want to apply

YOU AND ALL THE STORYBOARD ARTISTS ARE COOKING!!!! Good luck to everyone who applies, I'll be watching this very closely. I apologise for my yapping; This is such a powerful and beautiful concept, I'm a sucker for deep dives into morality. The way you paint the turmoil and how it's tearing him apart is so interesting. The warriors community due to its younger demographic is pretty black and white but it's projects like this that push those norms. I love how there's no right answer here, in the end, someone dies. The fact that you're not afraid to present that is amazing and a very mature perspective on the story. Overall, this is just so different to what you normally see. It's not necessarily dramatic, but it doesn't have to be. It's sombre and quiet, it's personal. It's not fast paced, it's slow and the whole world just stops. In moments like these, characters are at their most vulnerable. I feel that the warriors community focuses more on the big dramatic scenes or the over the top action. But the stillness here is strangely peaceful in a way, as if he's aware this is a final goodbye. EPIC is a fantastic adaptation of a dark story and one thing that I absolutely love is how versatile the songs are. When music is written in a way where the context can be taken outside that media it communicates a sense of awareness, it's a chance to connect to a wider audience in more ways than one. You have brought the two together perfectly, the powerful music alongside the deep emotions- it fits so well. I don't know if I'm making sense but I'm really struggling to find the words here. This is just beautiful. Im wishing you and every other artist the very best 🫶 good luck everyone 💕
