My thumbnails are getting worse
clips: revolutionary girl utena
ummmm yeah i thought that combining these two episodes together from rgu and bes would be cool since they are both episodes that have puppet shows doing a metaphor or what have u of the story of the character (mizu/anthy) alongside the actual narrative being shown. and their stories are similar in many ways. mizu and juri would’ve gotten along great they’re both miserable as hell!
my apologies if I have misrepresented Japanese mythology/folklore in any way with this. I was not very familiar with onryō before watching blue eye samurai!
editing this was pretty fun.
sitf is a map hosted by mudshadow it’s gonna be swag as hell
pawborough is an online multiplayer fantasy cat breeder sim. it’s IN DEVELOPMENT! you can play the breeding demo at pawborough.net :) the base art for dreampelt belongs to the pawborough team and was drawn by Amelia Bothe with some edits by others along the way. pawborough is looking to be a super fun game and beta is likely to open up later this year, so check it out!
also watch revolutionary girl utena but probably look up the trigger warnings first because it deals with some heavy hitting and sensitive topics
and have a nice day!
(it’s fun to fuck around in LumaFusion with chroma key using greenscreen videos off YouTube. try it some time)
(have a nice day)
i made this 6 years ago when i was 18 as a storyboard for a map but left it unfinished because i didn’t know how. back then i was experiencing a lot of medical trauma and didn’t really understand that i was going to live the rest of my life as a disabled person, but the concept of that was beginning to brush the edge of my consciousness and this was a clumsy attempt at expressing those feelings. recently I’ve been hit full force with some hard truths about disabled life and i felt like it was the right time to come back to this.
this video is about cinderpelt going through the never ending process of coming to terms with her disability and what that means for her life, as well as the way her disability and the traumatic event that caused it changed her relationship with her mentor. firestar cannot see past the guilt and shame that he failed his apprentice, and the dreams that she once had under his mentorship, to accept the life she has created now. cinderpelt needs him to move on so that she can; she can’t bear the burden of someone else’s guilt and grief over her disability when she will spend the rest of her life feeling deep and complex emotions about it. i need to be clear that cinderpelt does not need to decide that her life is just as good or better than the life she might have led; she may still feel resentful, sad or bitter at times, but she is also happy and mostly fulfilled.
also, it is intentionally ambiguous regarding the “ghost” cinderpaw and firestar and how real any of it is. it is figurative and you are welcome to interpret it however you like.

PLOT: This MAP is about the similarities between the love stories of Tallstar/Jake and Ravenpaw/Firestar and how they came full circle in the end with Tallstar finding becoming a father figure to Firestar, his lover’s son. The main themes are love, loss and family.
Thanks so much to all the talented artists who made this happen. You worked so hard to get this done quickly and it came out beautifully. Thank you to my amazing cohosts, who I love dearly and who this wouldn’t be possible without. Thank you to the Pollywog Pals for always cheerleading our projects and making sure they get finished.
Thumbnail is by me, possibly just a placeholder.
My biggest tips to level up your thumbnail game:
- make the text of the thumbnail a part of the composition!
- remember that it’s going to be viewed small, often on a phone! keep your designs clean and free of small details that will be hard to make out
- similarly, don’t crowd your thumbnail. make sure every character and element of the design is necessary. do they all need to be there?
- try to include iconic visual elements of the MAP. if people can look at your thumbnail with no text and know what it’s for, that’s great.
What are your tips? I encourage you to share them in the comments!
If you have any questions, I’m super happy to chat in the comments, or you can find me on instagram and twitter at frankiebcatt.
COHOSTED WITH LOAFPAW youtube.com/channel/UCLiiXagjRTAAsom8dNmoCWA AND OWLIPOPPEN youtube.com/c/owlipoppen
This MAP is about the love stories of Tallstar and Jake, and Firepaw and Ravenpaw, and how those love stories parallel each other and turn out to be connected through family. Though neither love story ends with our heroes together, they all get a happy ending and in the end, Tallstar finds Jake again through his son, Firestar.
This is a TWO WEEK LIMITED ANIMATION MAP. Please check out the script, rules and designs then comment below if you're interested in being a part of this project as an animator or a backup.
I haven't decided on a thumbnail contest yet. Probably not likely, but if you make fan art it will be included in the credits so everyone can enjoy it. Please send any to frankiebcatt@gmail.com

Yeah, you saw that right! 8 full minutes of MAP!!!!!!!!! 57 beautiful parts!!!!
I'm so proud of everyone who took part in this MAP, including people who dropped out or didn't finish their parts in time and had to be dropped. Everyone worked really hard and gave it their best shot, and that's all you can ask for! We have such a beautiful finished product here and I hope everyone is so proud of what they've contributed.
This MAP came to mind a few years ago on the bus. It looked different in my mind then, since it's so long it was just a few different images strung together with music and it's changed a LOT to become something much more cohesive. It's about Jayfeather's outlook on the first part of his life (Power of Three) and how much of the magic and beauty of his world was destroyed for him, even in a world where he had actual magic! Some parts can move a little fast, so it takes watching a couple times to really get in the groove of it. That's a fault in my script writing. Oops!
I hope if you leave a comment you'll talk about a part you particularly liked, and maybe check out this list below and give that animator a sub! Obviously I think you should follow all of them, they're all lovely people and talented artists.
I'm just so proud of all the participants here for pulling together to get this done! Well done everybody!

EDITING BY: youtube.com/user/BarleysHarvest
ART BY: me!
this was a pmv commission for my cousin, of characters belonging to them and their girlfriend! they did the editing and i did the art. it was so much fun as i adore these characters and have drawn them many times before... they live in my heart rent free. the main two are stagpaw (dark brown and white) and tansypaw (golden and white). the cat in the first shot is their mum and the sick cat with tansy is his mentor. if you're curious, check out tad's channel (linked above) for more videos of these two and the other cats in the world they inhabit!
thanks so much to my incredible editor on this project tad owlipoppen
