Hi all, kinda new to the furry fandom, though I've always had a severe liking to anthropomorphic characters.

I'm currently trying to work out my fursona, all I have at the moment is that I'm a Grey Fox (gray, whatever) and he's called Fezz, I didn't realise how deep fursona creation went and I don't want to just make him the same as my real life self.

Mostly the creation of a fursona will ultimately help when it comes to the possibility of getting a fur suit commissioned, which is my main area of interest in the fandom.

I'm also following a few artists on FA to commission a headshot to work from there.

Any advise is appreciated :D

I know what it's like to cringe when looking back on ones old art, but a while ago as I was suffering from a mild bout of depression I discovered that it can actually be a very uplifting and therapeutic exercise, to take a look at just how far you have come, and mark off all the positive things about your growth as an artist.

Many of us often fail to give ourselves credit for just how much time and effort we've put into our growth and progression. Too many artists are mired self depreciation even when so many others assure them that they are skilled!

So I propose a small exercise for the artist community of /r/furry; Post one of the earliest pieces of your own artwork you can find, and follow it with your most recent. And then you should make the most positive observations you can. Talk about how much better you've become, how your anatomy, posing, lining, coloring or shading has changed or improved. How your own unique style or attention to detail has grown!

Remember, you were never bad, you're just better now!

Kicking us off, here is one of my earlier arts, back not long after I started when I was getting into the MLP stuff

And here is one of my more recent pieces!

The first was uploaded in February of 2012, in three years I've managed to improve immensely in practically every regard, my anatomy, my color and shading, the lineart, the backgrounds, the poses, my grasp on color theory and a style that sets my art apart from so many others! I can be proud of how far I've come, despite all my physical and mental health issues, despite falling in and out of fandoms, losing and regaining the confidence and the desire to be an artist, I'm still here and I'm still finding new ways to improve. I can't wait to see where I am three years from now!

Now, it's your turn! Show everyone how much better you've become over the weeks, months or years!

Say hibernation is still a thing, but instead of sleeping the entire season, they just sleep 14 hours a night instead of 8.

Do they get paid hibernation leave? Do they work fewer days a week? Could it even work?

A savage world of pantherine warriors and reptile foes…

Tribes of Kai

Kickstarter ending 4/10/15

A picture is worth a thousand words. Really. I’m trying to find a way to talk about this project that isn’t just pointing at the kickstarter page and shouting “LOOK! LOOK AT THE CATS!!”

It’s challenging.

In a world that was born nine months after Frank Frazetta made sweet, sweet barbarian love to Avatar, the five tribes of the Mantakai prepare for the ascension of their new lord–a champion chosen by a savage rite of passage, a test of strength and cunning. The Mantakai are a race of feline warrior “taurs”, with the grace of four legs, powerful claws, and the weapons and trappings of civilization (of a sort.)

Standing against them: the reptilian Tobognai, sleek and dangerous, challenging the dominance of the feline tribes.

The history of Tribes of Kai began back in 1998, in the short story Pridelands in Frank Frazetta’s Fantasy Illustrated magazine–a shot that introduced the Mantakai, their struggle with their lizard foes, and their lush, violent world.

Both Tribes of Kai and the original Pridelands are available with this kickstarter, for the reasonable price of $35. The pair is a rich and moody tour of the world of Kai, exploring the culture of the cat-folk and their struggles. There’s also some expanded material, lots of new art and pinups, by such fantasy luminaries as Boris Vallejo (more on that here).

In short, “Look! Look at the cats!”

I’m finding myself a bit frustrated with the Kickstarter itself. None of it’s a deal-breaker because of the huge amount of amazing art. You don’t have to look past the book cover to see exactly what you’re getting, though the gorgeous hunting tiger spread rounds out the experience nicely. I had some initial confusion as to what, exactly, I was getting–at first it looked like this was one of those awkward two-stage “at [goal] we’re remastering the original book, at [stretch goal] we’re expanding to 80 pages–no, it’s a new graphic novel and a reprint of the original Pridelands. Cool, but a little unclear if you’re just skimming…and people do skim. There’s a lot of wasted language talking about how much the two principle players–artist Daren Bader and Lance HaunRogue–are possessed of a deep and abiding respect for each other, which I think could have been cut or saved for a follow-up video–walls of text just aren’t that interesting. And the stretch goals could be a little bit more spelled out, price point wise.

Though they’re good stretch goals–primarily targeted at increasing the quality of the materials themselves. No complaints there.

So, I think I’m done trying to sell a project that so thoroughly and completely sells itself. Check it out. The price is good and the product is fucking awesome. If you’d like to dig a little deeper, there’s a bunch of concept art and illustration on the project’s facebook gallery, have fun.
