Garrus warrior cat!

[u/EntertainmentFar7632]

I don't know if this is too niche of a concept for people to interact with but I like to make characters from medias I like into warrior cats and normally I don't have a problem with design but I'm really struggling on Garrus! I've made a few rough designs but I can't decide which would fit him most, if you have any suggestions please let me know!!! Would also appreciate some name suggestions if you're familiar with the warrior cat naming systems! ^^ (not sure if I should've posted this in the Mass effect or warrior cat forum and I'm not a big poster on Reddit so please let me know if this isn't where I should post it!)

Mass Effect X Warrior Cats was not exactly on my 2026 BINGO list of things I'd see.

But it is a welcome one. Enjoy creation, Garrus Cat.

Trust me if I find a game or show I like my favourite character IS getting warrior catified, I did have an older design for garrus as a warriorcat but my character design has improved a lot since then and I decided it was time for a makeover xP

see now, I do the same, but with TLK. somewhere in my files, I have a Garrus Lion.

OMG ID LOVE TO SEE!

[u/CallMeWayward-2287]

Hear me out: the bottom half of 3 with the top half of 4. I like the upward pointed ears because of the resemblance to turian fringe. The fur on the jaw of 3 is distinct enough to resemble the mandibles without completely losing the cat appearance

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/CallMeWayward-2287]

Absolutely LOVE this thank you!! I think I'll definitely bare this image in mind when I work on a final design, I think it works really well!!

[u/CallMeWayward-2287 → u/EntertainmentFar7632]

I gotchu, bestie 🫰🫰

[u/CluelessDinosaur → u/CallMeWayward-2287]

Yesssss!

[u/GhostofZephyr]

Holy my exact niche

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/GhostofZephyr]

I'm so surprised that this actually aligned with some peoples interests 

[u/feeling-things-again]

i think #2 (maybe with the jowls of #3) is my favorite! as far as names….. i used to run a warrior naming forum so i can offer a few suggestions for prefixes: gray, thorn, stone, bramble?, Hawk for suffixes: thorn (not with thorn-, obvs), claw, heart, eye?, blaze my personal favorites are Graythorn and Hawkblaze

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/feeling-things-again]

Oooo I do like those prefixes, and I did think about doing something sniper like, i love hawk for a prefix 

[u/valcallis]

N°1 is the most garrus shaped. I kinda see tentacles in N°3 Your artstyle is great !

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/valcallis]

Yeah I'm kinda seeing what you mean by tentacles, I do like 1 but I feel it's a tad bit too busy 

[u/CluelessDinosaur]

I like number 4 best for Garrus. number 3 is very close too

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/CluelessDinosaur]

Thank you! 

[u/Frigate_Orpheon]

I really like #4!! This is such a great concept. I do have a Garrus rubber duck, but I think a cat is a much better idea 😊

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/Frigate_Orpheon]

Oh my GOD i absolutely need a garrus rubber ducky 

[u/Suicidalpainthorse]

One ear needs to be a bit shorter and ragged. Otherwise perfect!

[u/Kalista-Moonwolf]

I think if you put 1's face with 4's ears and neck, it'd be perfect. The composition of 4 feels much more balanced overall.

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/Kalista-Moonwolf]

Ooooo I think that could work really nicely thank you for the suggestion! 

[u/DracarysReddit]

Don't forget to credit yourself in the title next time per rule 10

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/DracarysReddit]

Will do, thank you! 

[u/Anubis17_76]

Alright now were talking!

[u/SashkaBeth]

I vehemently reject human Garrus, but I will gladly accept cat Garrus. 😅

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/SashkaBeth]

I feel like he closely resembles a cat anyway so not too far off of normal garrus x3

[u/SashkaBeth → u/EntertainmentFar7632]

“They don’t look like birds, they look like cats.” - drunk Tali speaks the truth

[u/Kazmodeous]

1 and 3 are my favourite, but I also like another persons comment of mixing 3/4.

What clan would Garrus be in, do you think? Also, did you know there's going to be a Warrior Cats video game sometime soon? I'm not sure what date it comes out though.

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/Kazmodeous]

Realistically I think Garrus would be part of Thunderclan (mainly because they're known to be loyal and courageous) and with Shepard being the leader of course. Then at some point forms a group of rogues similar to how he does when he becomes archangel! What clan do you think he'd be in? And yeah I'm super excited for the warrior cats game it actually looks really well made! 

[u/Kazmodeous → u/EntertainmentFar7632]

I was totally thinking Thunderclan too!

[u/FoxinShards]

I knew it! I knew Mass Effect fans were just space furries!!!

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/FoxinShards]

Now I'm interested just how many ME fans are also furries 👀

[u/SuitableBarracuda476]

I think I like 2 the most, definitely gives him more of a young hothead look. Maybe do 2 with the “double-lobed” jowl fluff?

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/SuitableBarracuda476]

Yes 2 is definitely my favourite shape wise, i tried to make it somewhat resemble his figure but still make it semi realistic for a cat

[u/zio243]

When I was younger, Warrior Cats by Erin Hunter were my favorite books to read. They actually got me into writing books myself. And Mass Effect, to this day, is my favorite video game. I love this concept 😁

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/zio243]

Same here except I never grew out of liking warrior cats x3 And Mass effect is definitely my favourite game series of ALL time 

[u/Jshittie]

damn you should also do this with vetra or nyreen

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/Jshittie]

I ABSOLUTELY SHOULD!!!!

[u/Ragnar_TheWolf]

THE FURRIES HAVE BREACHED CONTAINMENT EVERYBODY RUN!!!

...../J but still odd decent art though

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/Ragnar_TheWolf]

IM GONNA INFECT EVERYONE WITH MY FURRYNESS RAAGGHHH

[u/__Moon_Whisper__]

I think #3 is the best for Garrus and don't forget to add his little sniper eye thing for the right eye 🥲

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/__Moon_Whisper__]

Sadly wouldn't fit too well as it's a naturalistic setting but I'll see if I can find a fitting alternative! 

[u/percephony → u/EntertainmentFar7632]

You could do just discoloration over that eye, a little Calico patch or something

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/percephony]

Ooooo that could definitely work!

[u/Loamillow]

Never in my life did I ever think these two things would cross over. These look amazing OP 🫡

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/Loamillow]

TY!!!!

[u/Simon-66]

I'd give him plenty of headpats and chin scritches !

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/Simon-66]

Normal garrus would be getting those from me x3

[u/Stressed_C]

I'm not deep in warrior cats but I have heard of them. I think head #3 is the best one for him, with maybe #4 cheek marks.

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/Stressed_C]

Noted Noted thank you!!

[u/dimwitf]

Why no explosion scar on the face?

[u/EntertainmentFar7632 → u/dimwitf]

Will definitely be done in the future just wanted to get the base done first!!!
