Question on art preferences of the subreddit

Furry Reddit - Tue 24 Mar 2015 - 13:41

I've been semi-frequenting this subreddit for a while now. I was excited to find it, a community that can interact directly beyond tumblr and FA! I'm not super active, but I've always enjoyed seeing people's art and posting my own. Which is where I suppose my question comes into play: why the dislike for buff/bear furries? It doesn't seem like anything not skinny and delicate makes it to the front page here. It's disappointing (?) finding this subreddit for all furries and realizing my loves aren't included in the hive mind. Disclaimer: I'm not trying to start an argument, it's been bugging me for a while :/ (and hey, if my stuff simply ain't gonna be appreciated, I'm not leaving. I love seeing other people's :>)

Bedroom advice?

Furry Reddit - Tue 24 Mar 2015 - 12:37

Yes, I know there may be other subreddits for this, but I feel alot more comfortable talking to fellow furries about this. My mate and I are having some....intimacy....issues and I'd like some advice. Not going into details here because of obvious reasons, but if you're willing to talk either pm me through reddit or add me on Skype via rumtum_hyena.

Thank you!

If I take the wrong step, I lose everything.

Furry Reddit - Tue 24 Mar 2015 - 12:03

I've got a issue. It involves this fandom, my closest friends, and my parents. Here it is:

So in the first grade I met 3 really great people. They are Sebastian, Jason, and Nic. These people are the most trustworthy people I know, I rely on them for just about everything, and they do the same for me. They talk, listen, help me out, and cheer me up in my worst times. I've known them for 7 1/2 years, and I don't know where I would be without them. They are the best people I know.

I don't want them to leave me because I am a furry. They might think differently of me, and not see the same person who's been the same friend all this time. I know its not serious, but I don't want to take risks with the few people I have. They fill the void of loneliness because of the lack of true friends I have at my current school, they are not there all the time.

On top of all that, if I told them and they leave me, then if they are asked to hang out by their parents, they would probably say why and then get into contact about my parents about all this, resulting in huge trouble because I don't know you guys.

What should I do? I'm trying to first get their input on the fandom through posting photos that were labeled as cringe (even though they are not) and see how seriously they think of it.

Young Furry Asks about Bird Fursuits

Ask Papabear - Tue 24 Mar 2015 - 11:52
Papabear,

My friend is making me a foam base for a fursuit head for real cheap ($15, a steal). Do you have any advice for actually putting fur on it and making the rest of the suit (it’s a crow/raven)? I saw yours and thought it looked great, so I assumed you would be a great guy to ask. 

Kirbl the Corvid (age 12)

Hi, Kirbl,

Well, my first advice to you would be don’t put fur on it :-) If you’re a raven, put black feathers on it! Or something that looks like feathers, anyway. Of course, birdsuits are a bit more complicated than mammals in some ways. You have all sorts of different textures: the hard beak, the smaller feathers on the head and underbelly, the larger flight feathers, and a different material all together for the legs and feet. Thank you for the compliment on my fursuit, but I didn’t make it. That credit goes to my wonderful fursuit maker, Beastcub. Here, FYI, is an example of a birdsuit she made http://www.beastcub.com/apps/photos/photo?photoid=185044670.

It’s very nice that your friend is making a head for you for $15. My advice to you on the rest of the fursuit (if your friend can’t do it) is to look for a maker who has made birds before. Money, of course, can be a bit of a problem. Because you are 12 and are likely going to grow some more, I would not invest a tremendous amount of money in this first fursuit because it likely won’t fit you after a couple years.

Therefore, use this first fursuit as a learning experience and don’t spend a lot of money on it. It will work great, too, as you learn how to perform in one.

In the meantime, I would also advise you to join a fursuiter social networking page, such as on Furry4Life or Facebook and chat with furries who also have birdsuits.

Sorry I couldn’t be more help! Sadly, I’m not talented with a needle and thread, but there are lots of people out there who are, and many are happy to share what they know with you.

Stay Furry!

Papabear

Chat with Strypes, Edmonton Oil Kings mascot performer and fursuit referee.

Here’s a followup post to:  Edmonton Oil Kings hockey hosts fursuiter race. “It’s looking hairy at ice level!” On January 2, 2015, the Edmonton Oil Kings hosted a fursuit race at their hockey game.  The “Frantic Furry 500? entertained the crowd during intermissions.  It was organized by Strypes, (AKA bcbreakaway). It was incredibly cool of Strypes to answer my questions […]

Im pretty sure IMVU just wants to make more people become furries.

Furry Reddit - Tue 24 Mar 2015 - 08:26

because 1 in every like 50 furries will use IMVU and buy something, so in the long run more furries: more cash.

A little get to know each other thread!

Furry Reddit - Tue 24 Mar 2015 - 06:36

I've been on this sub for about 4-5 months now and I've noticed who posts a little, who posts alot, and who is new! Every furry has SOME relation to the Fandom, whether you're an artist, music maker, writer, game developer, average furry etc. So kinda like a introduction I'd like you to comment with your name, what animal your furry identifies as, what you like to do, and anything else you might add ^_^
