New here! Hello/Intro and doing freebies/requests/trades

Furry Reddit - Sat 31 Jan 2015 - 22:30

Hey guys!

I've always been into the furry fandom especially during high school, but I kind of stopped after I figured that no one around me really shared the same interest. I'm currently in college studying graphic design and illustration and the furry fandom was a huge part of my life that got me into art, so I'm really grateful for that. I've joined FA recently but I really don't know how to interact with people there so it's been kinda meh.

 

My sona is a weirdass tall annoying dog/jackal/whatever. Call me splotch, sploggs or sploggles, whichever works! I kinda made him up on the spot as a joke but he really grew on me. I'm working on a reference sheet but I can't get his awkward body right zz.

I kinda dropped drawing furries back in 10th grade due to finding out the stereotypes of the fandom and kinda felt embarrassed about it due to having no one around me with similar interests, but I recently started picking it up again. It's something that I really enjoy drawing and drawing things that I enjoy really helps me improve a lot so I believe I'm making the right choice (also, lurking around furry art and not drawing any of my own gets irritating heh).

 

Currently, I still don't know anyone personally in the furry fandom and I think that I'm over the threshold where it's easier for me to make friends since I tend to overthink everything now, but I'm still hoping to meet new people and actually have someone to talk about furry shz. It's kind of sad drawing things that I really can't share with any of my friends actually, haha. I guess I'm pretty friendly though (I swear swear a whole fucking lot).

 

That pretty much covers it. Right now, I'm doing freebies in hopes of getting enough experience in order to hopefully take commissions in the future. I'm all up for trades, but if you just want to request that's perfectly fine with me!

I have an FA here: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/sploggs/

And you can leave a request either here or on my request journal on FA which you can find here

 

There's not really much in there but take a look if you want to!

 

I would prefer the reference to be posted on my FA journal for convenience's sake, but whatever floats your boat! (also some people might not have an FA so yeah). I can't promise that these will come out quickly since I'm juggling school work and there's no particular order, but I really like having a queue so I can just hop in and pick something to work on. There's also no order really since I just go with the flow with my personal bias so yeahhhh.

 

andd I don't really know what else to say right now, heh. I just really want to get myself more into the fandom that I absolutely love. I enjoy all parts of it!

Oh yeah my roomates/housemates constantly rip on furries, but little do they know there's one lurking among them, so that's kind of funny.

Nice to be here!

   

TLDR: i'm a prick

FA DDOS

Furry Reddit - Sat 31 Jan 2015 - 22:06

So it looks like FA's been DDOS'ed again. I just checked there roughly 10 minutes ago (so about 6:50 pfc) and the admins have announced FA's been DDOS'ed.

Wonder who they made mad this time.

Need Reference sheet.

Furry Reddit - Sat 31 Jan 2015 - 19:59

Hello I'm in need of a reference sheet for my fursona. Looking for somone willing to do it for free, I know it's how you guys make your money but I don't really have Anything to spend on art so I figured it was worth a shot.

Furry Reddit - Sat 31 Jan 2015 - 16:29

FA is down for me, I checked on isitdown.com and it said it was up. Is this happening to anyone else?

Furry Mannerisms? (Going to a con)

Furry Reddit - Sat 31 Jan 2015 - 15:40

Hello furs, I've been a furry since middle school (I'm in college now) and I still haven't actually met any other furs in real life. There's a new convention starting this year named Anthro New England which is only a few hours away from where I live, so I figured it would be a good opportunity to go and meet some.

I hope to make some new friends while I'm there, but I also don't want to look like an idiot or an outcast (especially in a group that are already 'outcasts' from most people's perspectives XD )

So my main questions are these: What is it like to go to a con? How do you meet new people? Anything else I should know before I go?

Just out of curiosity...

Furry Reddit - Sat 31 Jan 2015 - 14:59

Why are so many fursonas wolves and foxes and dogs and whatnot?

If we made a product to go on redditmade.com what should it be?

Furry Reddit - Sat 31 Jan 2015 - 14:36

I think we totally should at some point, would be pretty cool.
