Seeing all this old furry art takes me back to a specific time as a teenager and it makes me feel nostalgic. But not like, nostalgic in the "hurrdurr The Old Days Were ~Better~" way (because lmao NOPE), but nostalgic in a "Remember how it felt to be less afraid of being sincere?". That's what I want to try and go back to, man.

It's not a bother in the slightest; questions are fun :] Sorry about the late response, though.
We came back to look at this a few times! It would have technically been *possible* for it to work just once, but looking a few times on our own felt the most genuine; the hope was that one part's answer wouldn't interfere with the rest as much, that way.
(I can't skip a number with the numbered bullet points.)
I know I've had my fair share of thoughts. I did have to look at the other answers in order to add them here.
I'll be honest... I have no idea. It's not something that came to mind when putting these here. Does that mean anything, or is it just an interesting difference to notice? :0

so I've been a furry for approximately forever but I have never settled on a fursona. So I figured it's 2025, I should let democracy decide my publicly-assigned fursona, right?
Feel free to reply/reblog with propaganda for your choice.
Explanations for why each of these under the cut, plus why an obvious one is missing:
First of all, robots are right out. I don't have a robotsona, I have roboticization dream. if I was a wolfguy I'd be a wolfguy who wants to be a robot wolf.
deer/antelope: I have a dear deer friend so I see a lot of deer stuff, and it does rub off on ya. Plus I just love faun spots. If I wasn't the whitest human who ever whited, I'd have them tattooed on my already. Antlers can also be Gender, which is a plus.
cows: this one is harder to explain. I grew up on a farm, I've always liked cows, and hey, tits are nice. I'm asexual but tits can still be nice.
cats: I have always had cats as pets. I love them. I wish they loved me more (please imagine me as Sakaki from Azumanga Daioh, even though everyone knows my Azumangasona is Osaka). Cat ears are a certified banger, they've got curves and balance and fun noises (meow is overrated. I'm all about the mrrp).
puppies: I've been on kinky trans tumblr too long to not have some of the puppygirl propaganda rub off on me. Plus I wrote a story about wolf HRT, which is close to doggos?
bunnies: You gotta love big bunnies (see wolfertinger666's art for examples of why), but it's mainly because of how hypersexualized they are in the fandom. Bunnies fuck constantly, and I'm asexual. That's hilarious to me.
owls: My wife's #1 favorite species. We have SO MANY owl plushes, you guys. So if I'm gonna be an animal, I should be something she's gonna cuddle forever, right?
dragons: Speaking of my lovely wife, she's a dragon. Maybe I should be a dragon too?
angel: I have joked on several situations that my fursona is Ramiel from NGE. I want to be a giant geometry shape with a heart of atomic fire and a bitter hatred for Tokyo-3.
Slimegirl: I recently did a post about being a slimegirl. Like all my stories, it's a little bit autobiographical. I kinda hate bones.
horsetaur: this has been my go-to furry joke for years. It's something that sounds like it makes sense as long as you don't think about it, so making the horsetaur my official fursona would go along nicely with some of my other favorite lies (my middle initial is B, for Benoit B. Mandlebrot, and I'm 5'12") that serve to confuse people. And no, I will never clarify what the fuck I mean by horsetaur: there are multiple interpretations, and they're all wrong.

Evolution of my fursona/art style over the past 15 years. Say what you will, but I genuinely think fursonas as a concept are a fascinating form of self-expression and just find it interesting to look back and track the changes of not only my art skills/style but also of the way I chose to present myself at various points in my life.
I had two distinct art "phases" during my teenage years. The first one was around middle school, in which I was your standard cringy furry kid on the internet with a plethora of brightly-colored Mary Sue OCs.
The second one was around high school and into college, at which point I got more serious about art (preparing to apply for the BYU animation program) and decided that I was too Mature™ for unnaturally colored characters, among other things (that's where I changed Natti's color scheme from blue to brown, and there were also a few years where she was actually changed to entirely white with no markings, though that iteration never got a ref sheet and therefore isn't represented here).
In retrospect I actually kinda view the second phase as cringier than the first. I don't regret the phase—I think it was overall beneficial to my art journey and I definitely learned a lot during it—I just wish I hadn't had such a stick up my butt about it. I wouldn't have worded it this way at the time, but I looking back I definitely had it in my head that I was a Special And Good Artist for figuring out that unrealistic colorful characters are Not Okay for whatever reason, and I lowkey looked down my nose at younger artists who "hadn't figured it out yet", which....yeeeeeeeah, that attitude was pretty cringe. But that's teenagers for ya, I suppose.
Anyways, I find it pretty fascinating that by complete coincidence, the current iteration of my fursona—who I designed as an adult and whose design has remained stable for around seven years now—happens to represent the color schemes of her iterations from both of those eras: the blue whimsy of the middle school iterations, and the brown and white of her high school iterations.
This wasn't intentional—fun fact, the reason the current version of my fursona has the white/brown/blue color scheme is that when I initially went to design her I was aiming for a dilute calico pattern, with the gray stylized to blue. I wound up abandoning the calico idea because I couldn't nail down a splotch pattern I was satisfied with, but kept the colors.
Yet despite the fact that it's coincidence, it's still pretty cool that my current fursona has those elements of all her predecessors, because it's as if all those phases and experiences and growth have come together to form the person I am now and it's represented visually.
It's also interesting how her design changed so often when I was a kid/teenager, but now as an adult it's stabilized.
like, idk, maybe I'm just looking wayyyy too deep into things here, but I feel like there's some sort of psychology at play lol. But who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well, I said back here that I wanted to do a NYTW critter-ification. So here we are!
As usual, design notes/trivia/comments under the cut:
"Rook, none of these are animals I'd ever consider related to the Hadestown cast."
Yeah, I know. But it looks cool, right?
Orpheus strikes me as someone who was wild as a boy. And by 'wild', I mean biting and growling and hunting squirrels with his bare 10-year-old hands. He got less feral when approached with food and stable housing. With all that in mind, it made sense to give him something that matched that energy. Also, community-minded? Famous vocals? Effortlessly beautiful? The connections are there! And I stole from this drawing I made a long while back. Yeah I bet y'all forgot about that but I didn't! I still really like the idea of werewolf Orph!
...come to think of it though, we give nytw orph too much credit. I think it's easy to pin him as the brave, heroic union leader because of his confidence, but he's just a poet. He's lovey-dovey, he's gentle. He's got a very healthy ego, but it doesn't overpower his soft core. There's a reason his 'If It's True' is so sad - he's not a fighter, he's an artist, and more importantly, a lover. He has no real incentive to finish his song (for better or worse, narratively-speaking). He's an artist who talks big and loves his wife.
That said, it seems a little weird to give him such a fierce animal. But as is the case for bway orpheus's fox choice, i am a fan of designs that betray the real character underneath. His big snarky wolf persona (fursona?) falls apart when he looks at Eurydice for more than 3 seconds.
Wow, that could've been its own post tbh. Moving on, the star-like speckles in his fur were added because of his name - "the darkness of night". Canis Major is somewhere on his fur.
Now, could a catgirl and dogboy really fall in love?
With regards to Eurydice, you can't improve upon perfection, which is why my design looks very similar to @riveracheron's Eurydice design. You can see most of ismene's design here (I can't find the original ref image, sorry!) for reference. I wasn't sure about making Eurydice's nose yellow, but she needed yellow somewhere in her palette, and a black or pink nose looked kind of wrong. She's a loner kitty built for the snow. Not that she enjoys it. Also I wanted to add a cute white/yellow bow around her neck but forgot :( pretend it's there
Anyway, probably the most interesting animal decision was Hermes. I mentioned in my Broadway critter designs that I wanted to keep the neutral characters as birds. That meant I had to find a bird to match Chris Sullivan's Hermes, and, idk, I liked the barn owl the most. Barn owls are screechy and painfully unexpressive, but if Legend of the Guardians: the Owls of Ga'Hoole has taught me anything, it's that anything can be expressive if you break just enough rules. So there.
Barn owls are associated with doom and death in old English tales, and they're known to live in abandoned houses. It would sound like the barn owl should be given to Hades, but I like to think that since Hermes is the one telling the story, he's in charge of the cycles of death and renewal that take place in the story. He's a harbinger whether he likes it or not.
For the Fates, I already had cat designs in mind, but I almost made them birds to fit my neutral rule. Then I kinda waffled on it and said "well, the Fates are kind of mean, and you know what would be fun? Wild animals vs domestic animals". Cats it is! And they are anything but dressed the same: we got stripes, spots, and swirls. They torment their fellow kitty Eurydice for being 'wild', they're invasive, and they get in fights with the local wolf. The relationships write themselves.
I didn't draw Hades and Persephone since they'd already been covered in the Broadway lineup, and there wasn't much of a difference between bway and nytw to justify new drawings. They're still critters though, trust me.
And that's it! I guess had a lot more to say about these than last time. As always, the designs are free to use with credit.

sayama. and ryuji too if you wanna add him or if the answers eventually mention him
ooo yay!! the sibs :3
How I feel about this character
Kaoru: I LIKE HER . A LOT. i really want to delve into studying her a bit more but like. grrrr. grrrrrrrr. i am rotating her in my brain quite frequently. i s2g someone get me a kaoru cutscene compilation on my desk by tuesday i neeeeed to analyze her properstyle (<- /j ill skim y2 myselfffff. someday. when i have time.)
Ryuji: rips off my dragon themed shirt and my Insert Coin Ryuji Goda Jacket to reveal my dragon tattoo . i respect his grindset immensely i too would fight someone over a shared fursona also i love stupid men. yes i WOULD put him on the kinlist .
All the people I ship romantically with this character
Kaoru: shrugs. no one...? idk nothing reaaaally hits for me atm BUT she's also not a character i've claimed for the aros and/or aces (yet.) (it keeps happening. but its also the highest honor so-)
Ryuji: I've claimed him for the aroaces!!! no one!!! YIPPEE!!
My non-romantic OTP for this character
BOTH: ok well tragic siblings sweep numero uno I always think about what would've happened if they got to spend more time together. like i just KNOW 5 seconds after the novelty wears off they're gonna be bickering nonstop bc they are quite literally polar opposites ASDJKGHEQWT
Kaoru: HM. Good question! I don't know if i have a dynamic ive delved super deep into w/ her but like. honestly? it'd be interesting to see what would happen if she interacted w/ some of the ichigang girlies like saeko & seonhee...
Ryuji: WORSTIES! I love thinking of his dynamic w/ Mine its so funny to me (and like. entirely made up lmfao). i will also give a shoutout to his rivalry thingy w/ Daigo. high school bully... shoving that emo kid in a locker.........
My unpopular opinion about this character
Kaoru: shes a woman in fandom i'm sure the list could be 9 million miles long. uhhhh i guess i just wish more ppl drew/wrote stuff w/ her? i think she's neat and i'd like to see her around in the tag more often (<- though this goes for other female charas as well. like hana. or yayoi. or mikiko. or-)
Ryuji: uhhhhhh . [taps the aroace sign] i don't ship him ig? granted thats also another thing thats always an unpopular opinion lol. ig in particular i moreso prefer his dynamic w/ Daigo non-romantically???
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.
BOTH: THEY SHOULD'VE HAD MORE TIME TOGETHER............. insane to me that the ending of 2 is just "we're siblings" "woah cool. [dies]" "oh that sucks :( im gonna go make out with my crush" like GUYS?????? its so dumb its hilarious but also please . please. interactions. please. cries.
Kaoru: I wish we got more stuff that wasn't tied to the romance plot...... i thought some of the tidbits from IW were fun (like her lil pivot in her career path) but like.... there's such a big focus on the romanceeeee i want more general infoooooo
Ryuji: dead souls canon real stop lying rgg i know the truth. in that vein though if we could've gotten him trying to find out where she went (bc i dont think anyone told him about the america trip) + like. trying to reconnect ... idk it'd be fun i think......

So to put this in perspective. I was about 5-7 when The Burned Furs was happening. I literally went to see Pokemon: The First Movie IN THEATERS, while this was going on.
By the time I was using the olde internet was about 10 or so. My family had a home computer system with Windows 98 and kept things upgraded over the years due to my dad needing access to "the internet" for work. I was left alone a lot as a kid (busy father/neglectful mother) and this was around the time of "CHECK OUT WWW.POKEMON.COM FOR MORE DETAILS" kind of time of the early internet + advertising. Like I was still using AOL dial-up for a lot of my original internet deep dives. Then, when things like Neopets took off, I was using the computer religiously. I stayed (mostly) on kid-safe spaces, but of course, the internet was, and is, the internet and I eventually branched out. I wanna say I was looking up pictures of Inuyasha to print out and use as art reference, as well as Digimon and Wolf's Rain. I know one of the earliest pieces of furry media was Renamon porn around 2002-2004, as well as a lot of art by Dark Natasha through her website.
At some point around 2005-2006 I stumbled onto VLC. I remember because I saw some furry art by an artist and really liked his style and was emulating it for a bit. At this time, furry art was still ruled by many people emulating Animalympics (which I only knew of because my family owned one of the first official releases of the VHS copies), as well as Osamu Tezuka's deep stylistic influence on the furry community in the 80-90s. The Disney influence from TLK hadn't fully seeped into the community at that point, and, being a little anime kid, I was genuinely fascinated with the art style. One of the first pieces of art I posted online was something I drew inspired by some furry fox art I saw on VLC, but then hyperfixated more into the general "I wanna draw a cool edgy anime wolf" kind of thing.
My first OC, Jade Shadowblood (lol) I made when I was about 9-10. I still own the sketchbook where I first drew her. This was sometime around 2001-2002. She was an Inuyasha self-insert character and intended to be "me" if I was in Inuyasha. I always refereed to her as "this is me if I was a wolf demon" to my friends at the time when I showed them my art in elementary school. I got the idea to make more "wolf demons" of my friends when they asked me if I could draw them as wolves at school. I took a lot of design inspo from Neopets/Neopets Adoptables at the time, and a lot of my original OCs were in fact, based off of kids who were my friends at the time (I have all of these original pieces still saved to this day).
Anyway, I joined DeviantArt in 2006 when I was 12-13 under the handle ShroudofShadows. I heard the name on Xiolin Showdown and thought it sounded cool for an internet username. This was my first real venture into social media. I scanned in and posted some of my old art, and continued making art inspired by Inuyasha, Wolf's Rain, Neopets, etc. It wasn't until about 2007 or so when I shared Jade on DA that one of my friends asked me "is this your fursona?" and I was like "what's a fursona?" and well, here we are I guess?
My first webcomic was started at this time, I found out about other people making wolf comics with their characters and I was like "I wanna do that too". The OG Wolf Song was heavily inspired by Inuyasha/Wolf's Rain, but because I also liked Don Bluth, an inspiration Kay Fedewa also used for her art, I got lumped in as "copying" Kay Fedewa because our styles were similar.
Kay got started with The Blackblood Alliance around the same time I did, and did influence about 5 or so of the original pages. Even though I knew my characters and plot were different and eventually would deviate from looking similar to her art, I just leaned into it since people were accusing me of copying her when we just happened to be posting around the same time. I had no idea who she was prior to people comparing me to her.
Wolf Song, ran for several years, but due to being bullies by TheRoguez/RayJ and her band fo merry fuckwads who made it their goal to "remove" wolf comics off of deviantart (the great sparkledog cleanse) and people like MirrorZan and BlueShineWolf having some very public drama in the wolf comic community, I eventually stopped working on my comic to do a big re-write. I wanted to FINALLY get out from under the "oh you're just copying these people" bullshit because I was like "I literally don't know who this is until you name dropped them". I stayed in my lane with Wolf Song and didn't branch out too much to other wolf comic artists since we were all getting harassed at this point. I didn't really know who to trust outside of the friends I had made in my early DA days.
By 17, I was applying for colleges and didn't have time to work on Wolf Song anymore. This was also around the time the other Wolf Song, the one on youtube, began taking off more and my comic was buried under the popularity. I figured "eh ok" and dropped the project while focusing on school.
I never felt like I really fit in with any one place/group. I had my own space and the fans of my comic which made me happy, so I avoided social media/fandom stuff for a few years. I was always on the fringes of the furry fandom, but due to coming across some really racist proboards forums about the furry fandom when I finally looked into it and saw "N*ggers can't be furry/therian/otherkin", I was like "ok fuck you too" and never wanted to participate in the fandom.

Pretty sloppy refsheet since I haven't made a proper one in a while (don't think I ever did for any past fursonas/furry oc's.).
Bitter-Berry was born into the world sometime in the mid-90's to a white-tailed deer mother and a timber wolf father. His mother named him "Juniper" and raised him away from his father, and while growing up, she demonized every aspects of wolves and any predator type species. B.B was raised to fear wolves and suppress his urges which did not mix well with his own deer instincts.
Growing up, B.B had issues making and keeping friends, if he wasn't quietly keeping to himself he was lashing out, which lead to him becoming isolated.
The wolf instincts became worse as a teenager (raging hormones and all that) and he completely lost himself when he attacked and killed a fellow deer. He couldn't help but to eat the corpse when he took them down. He was ousted from the herd and his mother fully disowned him.
Lost and isolated, he met a human woodsman, who took him in after convincing him he was special and they'd make something great together. B.B became the man's "hunting dog" which satisfied his predator urges and gave him a sense of usefulness and belonging.
This seemingly nice setup didn't last long, after a few years, his domestication training turned into full on torture, the woodsman revealed himself to be some type of sorcerer. He would preform torturous rituals on B.B, making him experience death and resurrection.
The only thing that was a silver lining for Bitter-Berry was the fact the more the woodsman used his magic, it would slowly kill him, though it took B.B awhile to realize it would be an open door to escape. He endured this for a full decade until the woodsman became too weak to overpower B.B and eventually die.
Now Bitter-Berry spends his newfound freedom seeing the limits of his supposed immortality and regenerative abilities. He may be a danger to others but he's not invincible, he can still be knocked down and he's pretty weak overall.
He's not sure if he can live a normal life after everything, but at least there's some things that make him happy; like weed, energy drinks, video games and doing art...and other earthly delights.
Extra notes:
B.B has autism and low self esteem, as the years went on his anxiety got worse and he got major depression along with the trauma.
He discovered he was trans near the end of his time stuck with the woodsman.
His antlers started growing after one of the last rituals he was subjected to, it was a mistake by the woodsman but he decided he can take the antlers for whatever he wanted.
B.B can appear in feral, toony and anthro whenever the mood calls for it.
Because of his shifting forms, his legs in anthro mode are mostly digitigrade but can also be plantigrade depending.
Got top surgery at some point but the scars can appear or disappear depending on how the regeneration process is.
B.B chose the name "Bitter-Berry" as a somewhat similar name to his deadname.
Fashion wise B.B dresses more alternatively, fitting with his music tastes. Mostly settles for what's comfortable and listens to a lot of other things too (polyjamorous lol).
B.B appears sickly due to an unbalanced diet, but default is kinda chubby.
Sometimes his wolf instincts clash with his deer instincts to the point of self destructive behavior.
Despite the dark subject matter, he has the ability to be silly and laugh at dumb things or odd coincidences.
There's a lot of darker stuff and not-safe-for-tumblr subject matter but hopefully that can be gauged with the bio there.

If you want to listen to a barely coherent fnaf theory then here is one, I can’t imagine this goes anywhere but here we go.
I think it’s interesting how the 2 animatronics that are not in security breach, often represent the Aftons in some way. Foxy bro for Micheal, and Bonnie for William. Now listen I know William’s primary fursona is spring Bonnie? Golden Bonnie? Spring trap, however you want to describe that line up. But technically springtrap is a Bonnie variant, so shush. Now yes before you mention that Bonnie is in the game because of dlc, you’re not wrong, but I like to think it means that yes, William afton is still there and is still watching. The connection to the wet floor signs would imply that he’s still there even in the most spiritual sense. I think the replacement of glamrock Bonnie represents the afton virus or the mimic becoming the new primary villain. Or it could just symbolize William’s insanity and rage, becoming a dangerous crocodile. Now for glamrock foxy, it seems like foxy was just a side show, though I suppose he always was, but he's most likely wasn't part of the band in the pizza plex. it's possible that foxy/Michael represent help, Michael was there to help the missing kids move on, I think the lack of an actual glamrock foxy represents that Michael has moved on to the afterlife. micheal being replaced with someone else that is willing to help. now who that is? idk. i think if this theory were to hold true than it would imply that henry's story isn't quite over, since he's usually the Freddy to william's bonnie. i've got no ideas for glamrock chica, they never really gave her substance. i guess she could be the kids. since missing kids is just an endless constant in this series.
I’m not 100% percent sure that the glam rocks are haunted, it’s possible that the glam rocks represent the story of Henry and William. Freddy misses the good in William but he’s been replaced with this angry being. Anyways I hope you had fun reading this. Sorry about the grammar, I have no excuse. Have a good day.

vent comic about how rain world got rid of one of my gloomy thoughts
cw/tw, idk: mentions of suicide&death, eating disorder.
(i'm sorry, i struggled to figure out tags this time so this is the warning)
(let's not tell my mom i made a fursona for her ok)
this turned out pretty scuffed both in art and in text, but it's been a month since that happened and i wanted to share it one day. it's small and stupid, but it was so weirdly life-changing in my head. i still think about it sometimes, if it wasn't obvious from me making this comic.
Tumblr media
transcription: 1. So... I have suicidal thoughts everyday. And another issue I have is...probably an eating disorder, I don't know? I just know that I can't eat most edibles without spitting out immediately.
2. Sometimes my mom voices her concerns, since she ends up cooking extra meal specifically for me. And, of course, my brain takes that as another point ''for'' dying. (my cool mom) (me, very tired of my brain) mom: I don't even know what to make for you. Aren't you tired of eating chicken?
3. ''If I died, my mom wouldn't have to bother with that.'' It's one of the smallest reasons, but it was stuck in my brain as a validation of the idea of dying. Not anymore, though.
4. What happened? Well... Meet Pearl. He's my expedition slugpup and...In the middle of it I noticed my Pups+ was smh turned off. And then... anemone: wait, you're a huntpup?!
5. I went ''okay. I have to hunt lizards now.'' My missions list was: - get The Friend passage. - befriend 3 types of lizards. - steal from the Toll (for extra spice) But oh well. My son needs food.
6. And after a while, it occurred to me. Not even once I had thought that he's a burden, that I'd rather go without him. I'd rather go through any trouble, do as many extra step, but not lose him.
7. I never thought of just turning Pups+ off until just now, because I'm ready to do anything for my child with a very specific diet. When I realized his parallel, I cried. Then I cried at work when I thought of it in the middle of dark thoughts.
8. I almost stopped thinking about it that way. My mom tries so hard, I love her so much. She cares and pains when I feel so bad. I'm hella lucky. I wish I could stop wishing death for other people's sake when they don't see me as a burden like I do.

If anything I think you should speak more, because I love everything you write (and draw.) You've been one of my biggest inspirations to go back and give all of my ocs actual stories instead of just designs.
In fact, ever since you mentioned having non-fpk family ocs before, I have been incredibly curious.
Please feed me all of the information like a bird feeding its young, except its letters going into my eyes instead of food going into my mouth
you have no idea how much that warms my heart, i'm really flattered that you see me as an inspiration. it's all i could really ask for
i do have some ocs, yeah. though i will say, the fpk au characters are definitely outliers when it comes to the amount of personality and lore they have. most of my ocs have very basic backstories, and many of them only do because i used to roleplay as them with my friends. a lot of my original designs that i'm attached to don't even have names, let alone personalities
since i'll be posting a lot of pictures, i'll throw this under a read more so it's not too long
i guess i'll start with my oldest oc, a lion king character who used to be my "fursona" (well not exactly, since i've never considered myself a furry. but persona wouldn't fit here) years ago, back in 2012 i believe. she went through a lot of changes over the years, but i've settled on a design that i really like
Tumblr media
her name is swahibu (used to be swahili, i wasn't particularly creative, and i changed it recently since it was a bit awkward for her to be named after the entire language hahaha), and she has a little brother named kobe. their lore isn't anything too elaborate, they're essentially scar's grandchildren who used to be outlanders, but after the events of the second movie joined the pridelands. swahibu is bitter and a bit mean, but cares very much about her little brother. she got her scars in a fight with rogue lions which unfortunately ended with their mother's death, so they're now on their own. kobe is a smart cub, and brings a bit of joy and innocence to his big sister's life. as they both resemble their grandfather more than they'd like, they're often the object of nasty comments from those who lived under his tyrannical rule, though they do eventually earn the pridelanders' respect. not much else to say about them, except that i like to hc swahibu as gay. also, they have a very simple family tree that i made to show what their parents looked like, here (might not work if you don't have a deviantart account, but i'm not sure)
--
next up, there's a character i've considered my persona for quite some time, and one i used to put in many funny scenarios with my friends' ocs. he also changed the most out of all of them throughout the years, and recently i gave him a more furry like design as i hate drawing human faces haha
Tumblr media
his name is rick, and he's a hybrid of all kinds of different animals. he's very laid back and lazy, though the fact that he's a hybrid gives him some animal-like traits and behaviors. he used to have a backstory but it's kind of stupid so i'm considering changing it, but he was basically created in a lab and then released after it was shut down. now he lives on his own with his cat, jon. he's one of those characters who are very flexible, so if i wanted to, i could modify him to fit into any scenario (for example, he used to have an assassins creed universe version which i used for roleplay years ago hahaha). not much else to say since i'm still in the (slow) process of changing him
--
i also have a lot of dragon characters, most of them were made for the purpose of a larger roleplay story with my friends. in general i take 'dragon' as a very vague term, since to me a dragon can look however you want and all those classification rules are kinda stupid. but you'll still a bit of, idk, i guess a paleoart like direction for their designs, since i like speculative biology and such. also, some of these originated as heavily based on some of my favorite characters at the time, you'll see that with the first one especially
Tumblr media
his name is stark and he's probably the dragon that has the most lore behind him. i won't go into too many details regarding the backstory since it's long and very connected to the roleplay (you know, bit of a "you just had to be there" moment haha). but tl;dr he was taken in by a village and raised from hatchling, so he's very docile and a little bit confused. the village was attacked and he was able to survive, but one of his legs was scarred pretty badly, so he noticeably limps while walking. he's a semi-aquatic dragon, so he's an excellent swimmer. funnily enough, he went through a complete "reboot" a few years ago. in the original rp, he was a massive asshole, he'd hurt others for his own amusement and was generally very aggressive and not pleasant to be around. also, he had a prosthetic leg, though i scrapped that as it was far too advanced for the setting i envisioned him in. i much prefer this direction, i love my giant himbo gator-dragon. and i wonder how many of you can guess what character was the inspiration for his appearance (it used to be a lot more obvious in his first design iterations)
(and no, his wing isn't missing. this is just to show his back haha)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
these next three don't really have too much backstory to them. well, except for the first one, his name is ithaar, and he was one of my first ocs ever. he went through a massive redesign quite recently, so he has close to nothing in common with his first iterations. the other two characters, eurus and ash, were made for rp purposes quite recently, and so don't have too much lore behind them
ith is a bit of a coward, he struggles with his self-confidence and believes everyone sees him as insignificant due to his small size and inability to fly. he can camouflage, though, so he's a lot cooler than he thinks. also, he moves by hopping around like a little kangaroo. his design is very dromaeosaur-like, with short stubby arms and yi-qi inspired wings
eurus is very pterosaur-like, though much larger than even the largest azhdarchids. he doesn't like the company of others, he's a bit of a loner (with trauma!). he may seem mean on the surface, but his past experiences make him unable to walk past someone who's in need. not quite a gentle giant, though. i think it's easy to see which pterosaurs in particular were the inspiration for his design, though his crests are very dilophosaurus-like
the last one is ash, and she's the newest addition to the roster. her rp session was very short and didn't really add much to her lore, but she's generally a huge jerk who likes annoying others and stealing from them. but of course, it wouldn't be an oc of mine if there wasn't some trauma involved, and she's no exception. she believes she doesn't fit anywhere, she felt rejected by her own kind for her unnatural abilities (she can move things with her mind), and so she copes with it by being a prick. her design was inspired by junker queen from overwatch haha
---
i also have four night fury characters i made during my httyd phase, and i redesigned them about a year ago to be a lot more "natural" in their appearance. they used to be quite a bit more colorful back in the day, and not in the good way haha
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
their names are vel'ri, sherok, atis and marivo. no real backstory, just vibes. the first one used to be my "main" character during the httyd phase. vel'ri and atis are female, sherok and marivo are male
--
and lastly, some non-dragon characters. these don't really have any backstory that i think is worth sharing, but i still love them very much
Tumblr media
this one is named rugat and they're a genderless, shapeshifting magma alien thing. i don't know what they are. i just really like their design. they're aggressive, but they have a soft spot for small, weak creatures. god knows what their reasoning is, but i thought it was a cute personality trait
Tumblr media
and these two are named lox and bagel. they're a ragarox, an original species i made years ago when it was cool and hip to have a closed species. they're eyeless cave dwelling lizard things. very chubby. these two guys are not related but they hang out all the time. 🏳️‍🌈 perhaps?
lox, on the left, is the more active and territorial of the two. but he's also super affectionate towards bagel
bagel, on the other hand, is the couch potato. very round and chubby, 10/10
as a fun fact i like to think their long tongues have very distinct smells. lox's smells like lime, while bagel's smells a bit like blueberry
--
and lastly, here are two unnamed characters. i like their designs but i haven't had the chance or inspiration to think of any details about them
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the first one is an okapi-like thing. with a kitty face. the second is like a weird mix between a ceratopsid and some kind of mammal
oh and, here's some redesigns of old dragon characters that i forgot to mention earlier. they used to be very different (all but one were inspired by other characters, but you can't see it on their current designs), and i don't have any backstories for them yet. their names are also going to be changed, so consider them nameless for now
Tumblr media
(fun fact: the top left one was one of the first iterations of eurus' design, but i decided to turn it into a different character cause i still like it)

Fursona history dump!!
Literally gonna dump a bunch of art of EVERY past fursona of mine I could find. Some of them seem to have had every piece of art erased from existence so RIP Snowrush </3 but anyway. All sonas under the cut.
-Scruffy (Wolf)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Scruffy was my first EVER sona. By that I mean I made him when I was like 6-7 and would roleplay as him 24/7, I literally convinced myself I WAS him. My friends called me Scruffy, I drew myself as Scruffy, I was Scruffy y'all. Wasn't until I was like 10 that I knew what a fursona was though, but he definitely was one. Anyway my friends and I called ourselves "the secret animals" at the time. The tiger and fox are two of them, and the cat is still my best friend to this day (she's a bunny now ofc but back then she was a black cat called Starlight) god I am getting nostalgic just typing this. Good times <3
-Alaska (Fox)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Last piece by @mungosaur-4
Alaska was my fursona for YEARS. I'm still attached to her bc she was the sona I had when I was getting really into the actual fandom. Online, people knew me as her. Technically she was a fox/wolf/hyena hybrid but primarily she was a fox so lets just call her that. She was blue because I watched a lot of Pocari Roo at the time. To this day, I think Alaska is still the sona I've kept for the longest and in general have the most art of, because other people would draw her at the time online.
-Moth (Fox)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
All pieces except the first are by @bluedivvy
Moth was my reluctant break away from Alaska, when I was going through an identity crisis. They were still a fox because I wasn't ready to break FULLY away from that yet, but they also had an enfield form because literally why not. I liked Moth, thought they were cute but I didn't keep them for very long.
-Moth (Maned wolf)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Second and last pieces by @bluedivvy, other character in the first also belongs to them
Moth was literally just a test really. She kept the name of my last sona because I went by that name at the time and wanted to keep it for my sonas. She was a maned wolf bc I discovered that the animal was pretty similar to me, and I loved the way they looked, but I didn't keep either Moth for very long.
-Mulee (Mule deer)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Second piece by @mungosaur-4 and third by @bluedivvy, other character in the first also belongs to bluedivvy
I made Mulee when I was super obsessed with deer, especially mule deer, because at the time my daemon was near settling as one and I was filming some local deer for a school project. I loved Mulee, mainly because she felt more unique and distinct than my previous canine sonas, and also I LOVED her colours. That being said I was never really satisfied with her because I didn't feel like a deer fit me as an animal in the way canines and such did. Still, I had Mulee for a long time and loved her a lot.
-Corvix (Corsac fox)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Maned wolf in the second pic belongs to mungosaur
I was back on my fox bullshit with Corvix. I abandoned Mulee in favour of a canine eventually, and I went for a corsac fox. She was cute, I liked her, but I never got really attached to her as a sona. She was more of a temporary thing.
-Grizzlee (Bear)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bird in the first one belongs to mungosaur, rabbit is my bestie obv
And that brings us to Grizzlee, my current sona and the first one since Alaska I've felt satisfied with. I went back to Mulee's colours for her as well, strayed away from canines for some variety, but didn't stray TOO far from canines. So pretty much I feel like I wanna make a suit of her bc she's my favourite and I'm glad I waited to find one I really liked.
Okay that's the sona lore dump of all time goodbye!

maika for the wrestler asks :^)
OOH good pick feels very topical these days. I feel she picked up a reputation in the IWC real quick for being one of those "underrated workrate wrestlers" who was never going to get noticed or rise higher than holding the tag belts, a Jungle Kyona type, that I think was both wrong as all things the IWC believes are and also made people overlook her legitimately extremely good character work and storytelling.
Like she was out there feuding with Giulia over how her and Himeka were being too gay in public and ruining DDM's look in 2020. You know? Her relationship with her tag team partner changed the identity of an entire faction permanently. She told an entire story that nobody noticed about how she was suddenly in love with Momo when Himeka was injured just to have something to do while she was gone. I think some people thought that got dropped but like - no it was literally just bc Himeka was gone. The second she came back she went 'sorry Momo who?' like. It got resolved. I am begging wrestling fans to think about things ever. She's been telling a fucked up "I left my little sister behind to make her stronger" story with Inaba for like 5 years without even being in the same company. Maika puts a lot of thought into everything she does and just being like "workrate wrestler, love how she gets in the ring and hits real hard" is an injustice to all the other dope shit she does too bc she's one of the furthest things from a wrestler who stops thinking about it as soon as the bell rings.
I think people also discount her very real popularity just bc she's not like an idol type or whatever. Like she was one of the first wrestlers in Stardom doing product tie-ups and cross advertising with other stuff. She's like 80% of the reason I have any followers right now among an admittedly skewed audience but one that actually has some god damn taste.
Anyway glad she has the belt rn even though idk how long it'll be for, she does deserve better booking and I think she'll be really cool to see as a potential faction leader, wish she wasn't so tied up with Megan rn sorry Maika I don't care how much you're into tall girls.
OH ALSO SHE'S A HORSEGIRL NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT IT BUT SHE DEFINITELY HAS A HORSE FURSONA I'M TELLING YOU

HELLO EVERYONE!
Remember how I said I was gonna make a big post yesterday and I DIDN'T? Well, here it is!
We're gonna be looking over UNFINISHED AND OLD ART! (that has never been posted up until now)
We're gonna start off with some newer stuff, but as we go on we'll get to some art from the beginning of the year, which was still during my HIATUS I had! (Finally I can explain the hiatus...)
Tumblr media
First we have this thing with Cloud and Aerith, not really sure what I was going with this, but I guess it looks alright?
Tumblr media
I've been very obsessed with the eeveelutions lately, so this was kind of the product of that. Though, Lately I've been trying to draw them differently (which has been fail after fail because I need to learn how to draw cats XD)
Tumblr media
okay so this is Noelle I think? I feel like it looks kind of weird, I've never really known a good way to draw her. (why does all my stuff face the same angle ;-;)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OKAY this is the Dresden Dolls (fucking love that band) I was trying to draw one of their photos but I never finished it. Poor Brian doesn't even have hair.
To the right of it we have Evelyn Evelyn, a very similar band to the Dresden Dolls (cuz Amanda Palmer was in both) That's pretty much it, I never really posted it cause I thought it was boring.
Tumblr media
I have no idea how old this one is but I think its Ivy looking out of a window. I was like, "i wanna draw ivy but I don't just wanna draw her standing there doing nothing"
Tumblr media
Um, I'm not really sure what this is.... I think I called him... "mr stabs"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OH MY GOD and here's Luther! This was from a bit earlier this year, (like during the summer) when I tried making a Lackadaisy OC that never really went anywhere... I kinda miss him. Anyway he was a scammer salesman guy so I wanted to draw him with Atlas. He was supposedly the one who sold him the fake ass pearl necklace he gave to Mitzi... at least he WOULD be because I never finished it LOL.
The right image shows him trying to sell a... skibidi toilet
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OH MY GOD MY HYLICS OCS!!! I tried making a party... The guy on the left was called "Sowpatah" and was like a gentle giant type of dude who had a head like a squid. On the right theres Lilesmald, who I LOVE the design of. Both he and "Bunny" I really like. But Idk about Susheral, I think I based him off of some enemy? I remember drawing these all when I had really bad back pain and had to use a massage machine XD
Tumblr media
Here's some... fish. I was very stressed when I made this.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
OH MY GOD FIRAAA!!! (we are getting REALLY old now, like beginning of the year) Fira's an OC i've had for a really long time now, this was around the time when I put his story in the 1920s. He's kinda just this really annoying kid that always bothers his bro Manfred, always talking about how he wants to go on "adventures" and stuff, and Manfred's like, "dawg thats too dangerous"
This was around the time of the hiatus when I really wanted to change my artstsyle cause it was... well I mean, look at my older stuff on deviantart, you'll see what I mean. It was a pretty hard time, but I'm glad I went through it cause jesus my older stuff was eughh.
Tumblr media
Mordecai Heller. I was trying to draw him like how he looks in that one lackadaisy comic with the humans, I wasn't really as good at drawing humans back then. I love the babby one tho, pretty funny
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some concepts of my fursona? Not really much to say, you can tell I've changed a lot in the way I draw him, though, but some ideas still linger.
Tumblr media
Ahhh back when Manfred still had his pompadour... doesn't really work anymore with the new time period (the old one was the 50s) but oh well, not sure why he's drinking on the right there?
Tumblr media
HOLY SHIT ITS MY GIRL KIEGE!! Yess she's so cool. She used to be a pirate but I had to change it (the setting before was fantasy lol, it changed like three times) so now she's just part of a group of thieves that have the THEME of pirates, see it still works.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ahh Linebeck :_) I used to draw him so much when I was trying to figure out my art style. You can see how he changes so much in each photo. Honestly wish I drew him more often, he's a really interesting character, and I love him very much. The bottom right one was actually posted a lot later, but I literally deleted it off my blog (which I rarely do) cuz I hated it so much. (I REALLY don't like that one, I should've used more reference)
Well, I think that's all of it, it was a very interesting experience going through some of my past, kinda makes me wish I wrote about my OCs and thoughts more, lol.
It's weird looking back on that hiatus, cuz I feel like so much stuff happened, yet its very hard to express what it was like back then, due to me not posting anything. I was very sad, and spent a lot of time practicing. Thought, it was kinda nice having that feeling of growing in skill, and seeing things actually change, a part of me kind of misses it.
Anyways, thanks for listening to me ramble!
maybe ill draw linebeck again...
