Slugcat Shipruary 3 - Full Moon

Using my OWN designs this time... yippee! This is an edited version of my Gourmand design (made it lighter) and I adapted an old Nightcat design of mine to better fit this style (+ my theme of making this look like 🌖. you know)

Uhmmm ngl this ship grew on me a lot drawing this. As I've said before I have a soft spot for it since it was one of the first I thought about <3 So among the adjustments, I made Nightcat a bit chunkier, as I imagine Gourmand spoils the colony once they come home with so many new foods and recipes. Nightcat reads the stars to help their colony navigate the world. I imagine maybe they're somewhat of an inventor like Gourmand is, so they are always learning off of each other, though Gourm spends more time leading the group and Nightcat has more time to experiment with the new plants and objects they find on their travels. Also i think Nightcat would have the Mark of Communication from the beginning <3

Could I request a Gournightsaint? Your designs and artwork are gorgeous!

OK FIRST OF ALL THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE REQUEST + THE COMPLIMENT... I am SO sorry tyhis took me two gazillion years but.

NIGHT GOURSAINT!!!!!!!!!!

I'm gonna ramble bc I can <3

The title for this while I was making it was "Peace at Last", the concept being that after countless lifetimes fighting the cycle, ascending everything over again, Saint's boundless resolve starts to fade.

Even though it goes against their "purpose", they spend more time in the slugcat colony. I imagine they tried to ascend everything quickly there before they could feel tempted to fraternize at all with members of their species?

Gourmand and their second in command, Nightcat, welcomed them, gave them food and shelter while Saint realized that there could be more to life than repeating the pattern they'd stuck themselves into. So at least for this lifetime, they chose life and love. The cycle isn't going anywhere, after all

I really hope you like this and again sorry it took so long LMAO I did try to draw this ages ago but I couldn't get the sketch right so I gave up </3

Woah a piece with a background?! And shading!? From Lilac!? Yes.
