Month 15 - Newleaf
Battle With Razor Pt 5
Russetfrond sent a cat with a notched ear running with satisfaction and turned to find his next opponent. He was still feeling fresh despite the missing patches of fur and the bruises that were surely forming across his face. 
His eyes were drawn to a pair of ginger bodies wrestling near the edge of the battle. Orangestar was pinned beneath a big ginger kittypet who seemed intent on pushing her face into the ground until she suffocated. Russetfrond bunched his legs beneath him and barrelled into the tom, shoulder first. The kittypet stumbled enough for Orangestar to roll away and she jumped to her feet beside Russetfrond, panting. 
“Thanks,” she said. He simply grunted. 
The kittypet laughed harshly and said, “Come to save your girlfriend?” Russetfrond bared his teeth and started circling around the tom, testing his guard with feints here and there. The kittypet found this humorous too. 
“Do you even know how to talk?” he jeered. “Or do your people usually converse in primitive grunts?” 
Russetfrond growled lowly. Let him talk, he thought. He had almost lured the kittypet into turning his back on Orangestar who he had seemed to forget the moment Russetfrond arrived. That was a mistake. Despite her inexperience as a leader, Orangestar was an excellent fighter and Russetfrond had learned that first hand during a border skirmish a few years ago. 
Now he watched as she lunged and sank her teeth into the back of the kittypet’s hind leg. She pulled back with an audible snap and he roared in pain, spinning in her direction. Russetfrond took the opportunity to rear up and wrap his arms around the tom’s neck, teeth snapping at his cheek. The kittypet stumbled, off balance as he favored his injured leg, and Orangestar lashed out, scoring a wound in the tom’s soft belly. 
The kittypet twisted and bit down on Russetfrond’s leg which stung terribly, especially when the kittypet pulled at the flesh as if trying to tear chunks away. In response, he let go of the grapple and pulled away, hissing loudly. Orangestar jumped up onto the tom’s back and sank her claws in deep. Russetfrond lunged as well and sank his teeth into the loose skin around the tom’s neck. The bite itself didn’t do much damage but as the kittypet tried to turn and slash at Orangestar, Russetfrond gave a tug, effectively forcing him to stay facing forwards. 
“You little-” the kittypet snarled, striking out at Russetfrond’s face. Russetfrond shut his eyes and tried to hold firm. It sounded like Orangestar was doing a lot of damage up there and he wanted to give her as much time as he could. It wasn’t until a cat suddenly slammed into him paws first, basically using his body as a springboard, that Russetfrond let go, stumbling to the side. The kittypet they had been fighting rolled, shaking Orangestar loose. 
The newcomer was a young looking brown tabby in a reflective silver collar who looked at the first kittypet and asked brusquely, “Where is he?” 
“Playing with his toys,” replied the first kittypet, “just like we planned.” Russetfrond lunged for the ginger kittypet who reared up to trade blows, hissing furiously. He felt the second cat swipe out at him but Orangestar rushed in to keep him occupied. 
“Milo and Humus ran,” hissed the new cat between blows. “Oreo can’t use his left eye.” Orangestar smacked him so hard he fell to his elbows, dazed. 
“Great,” snapped the first cat. “What about the Chaff?” He bit down on Russetfrond’s shoulder and Russetfrond fell backward, pulling the kittypet with him so he could rabbit kick at his stomach. 
The second cat managed to roll away from Orangestar with only a few new facial scratches. “I’d say we’ve lost about half of them.” 
“You two must be important,” Orangestar said, panting with exertion. “Are you Razor’s advisors?”
“Don’t worry about that,” the ginger kittypet grinned harshly. 
“I’ll take that as a yes,” she said. 
Russetfrond grunted in agreement. “You know what that means.” Orangestar nodded, quickly catching his eye. He dropped into a crouch in preparation. 
“The savage speaks!” declared the ginger kittypet. 
“How curious,” laughed the brown one, wiggling down into a crouch of his own. “What does that mean?”
“You won’t leave alive,” snarled Russetfrond as he lunged for the ginger kittypet. They toppled backward, forcing the smaller kittypet to jump backwards or be flattened. Russetfrond placed both paws on the ginger tabby’s chest and pinned him, taking two heavy kicks to the gut. Orangestar moved quickly and sank her teeth into the restrained cat’s throat.
With a mighty tug of her head, she tore, spraying hot gouts of blood over Russetfrond’s paws. The kittypet gurgled as he tried to breathe and thrashed under Russetfrond’s weight but the warriors stayed firm, pinning him until his struggling faded and eventually stopped entirely. Russetfrond looked up, ready to attack the second kittypet, only to find that he had fled. 
“Coward,” Russetfrond growled. 
“Well fought,” said Orangestar. “I appreciate the help.” 
“Where’s Goldenstar?” Russetfrond asked, realizing that he hadn’t seen her or Razor in a while. 
“She was chasing Razor,” Orangestar said, fear suddenly flashing across her face. “He was running off into the woods. I was right behind them until that tom grabbed my tail and pulled me back.” 
“Let’s go,” Russetfrond said, taking off into the trees. “She may need our help.” 
“Right,” Orangestar said, then bounded forward to take the lead. Russetfrond followed closely behind. He hoped Goldenstar was alright.

So the one funny/frustrating part of this new print: I’m mostly happy with it. I am. I think when I finish the touchups next week and I’ll be even happier.
But I’m having to talk myself down from spending like 10 hours trying to correct one tiny detail—and I’m not even sure it’s possible to correct it. I’m trying to convince myself that it’s okay that it looks a little different than my original drawing because it’s a new medium and I basically redid the entire drawing! They’re sisters, not twins, and differences are inevitable
I honestly was pretty lukewarm on this drawing for a long time. It has been a few years since I drew it (ye olde ballpoint pen at the museum days) and it has never been one of my top favorites…but I framed it and hung it up in my bathroom a few weeks ago just because it was around, and in the process of seeing it daily I became obsessed with one particular detail on the original…

I really liked THAT notch in the fur. Idk why but THAT compelled me to revisit the entire thing in intaglio
And it’s not the same in the new one
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It is just ever so slightly different and I like the overall tiger but the little ethereal obsession with the notch is gone
And I’m just
Tumblr media
anyway this is why I can never get a tattoo
