10 Years of Furry
a year ago
Howdy people!
A few days ago, I celebrated my 10 years of being an active as a furry! It was the 21st of June 2014 when I posted my first ever art here: https://inkbunny.net/s/634611
Doesn't seem like much, but back in the days, it was a big step for my super shy self x3
I decided to use this anniversary to publish my book, as I considered it to be a big step toward me progressing as an artist, maybe the biggest I have ever done!
10 years filled with ups and downs... though many more ups thankfully xP I'm in a place I wouldn't have ever imagined back then! So thanks everyone for the support <3
For the occasion, I thought I would talk a bit about myself... And for that, I will use an interview I just did for the "Equine Furry Creators" group (hence the couple of horse questions), where I got picked as creator of the month for July. Enjoy reading me talking about myself x3
What do you create? (digital art, voice acting, writing etc.)
I mostly draw and, let’s be honest, what I draw is mostly porn xP I don’t mind though, porn is fun!
Though, I recently started writing my own books, with the first one that has just been released!
When did you start doing these creations? (art, voice acting, writing etc.) What got you started doing these creations?
For the drawings, technically ever since I started having naughty thoughts that couldn’t live anywhere else than on paper. Though, I only really started to do it seriously 10 years ago, pretty much exactly. Cause the 21st of June 2014 was when I first posted my first pic online! And a month after I got watched by my favorite artist back then, so it was extremely motivating!
For the writing, I used to write a bunch before drawing took over, mostly with screenplays and fanfictions. I decided to get back to it more seriously 2 years ago, as I had stories with my characters that deserved to be fully fledged.
Do you have your own fursona? If yes, tell us more about them (species, gender identification, sexuality, colors, likes/dislikes etc.)
I have my own fursona, Pluvian, an adorable, yet extremely naughty Egyptian plover xP
It’s a bit different from a traditional fursona, as his personality really doesn’t match with mine… Thankfully x3
Originally designed as a character to go in a Lion King story I had in mind. Then people started to identify me as him, so he kinda became me!
What is the creation you are most proud of? (art piece, voice over skit, story etc.)
Well I poured my soul into making my book as good as possible, and I think I managed to make it very enjoyable to read! Now I’m happy to share it around, and get more people interested in my universe!
Sadly no horses in it x3 but will definitely include big hoss Heiken in my universe later ;3
As for drawing, it would be hard to pick! I’m often proud when I do something kinda personal, and people get to like more than expected.
Where were you born, and where do you live now?
Born in France! While I consider myself being more from Toulouse in southern France, I currently live next to Paris for work reasons.
What would be a piece of advice you would have given yourself when you were younger?
Interesting question. I actually don’t think I would have done things much different. I am 32 now, and I have a mindset of “when you’re in your twenties, do whatever you want, it’s not yet time for regrets”. So yeah, I did whatever I wanted, and it got me to nice places!
What would you say to any aspiring creators out there?
Try it for yourself with in mind that it will take a lot of time, but it’s worth it if you enjoy it, which is still the most important!
And please, don’t limit yourself because of what others say. Limiting creativity is sad!
Have you or do you own any horses?
No! Sad!
Do you have any pets?
Family has two cats but personally, I don’t have any. If I get to mostly work from home someday, maybe I’ll get a dog, but until then, I’m not free enough for that!
Have you ever met anyone famous?
No, and… I don’t really care that much actually! Nowadays I’m only really interested in talking to people as equals, without consideration for fame, and without anyone feeling an inferiority complex.
Have you attended any furry conventions? If yes, which was your favorite?
I have attended 4 furry conventions. NordicFuzzCon back in 2015, which was… much too early for me in my furry life xP Didn’t have friends there and mostly felt out of place.
Went to Eurofurence 2019 and 2022. The first one was certainly my favorite convention, as I spent my time helping my good friend Wairu with his stand and drawing for people.
Also did IndyFurCon in 2023 for my first trip to the US, to see a friend there.
This year, I will go to Eurofurence again, though it will be different as I will be a dealer for the first time! Looking forward to see how it goes ^v^

FA+

I mean, I'm a furry now. I'm doomed.
GET ME OUT
It was nice reading about you :)
I remember when i discovered your art relatively soon after you started posting, and im also happy i got to meet you in person and hang around at NFC that one year <3 Your art has definitely improved A LOT over the years,
Keep up the amazing work bird butt! Looking forward to see more art from you!
Just wanted to comment on your characters name, Pluvian - My gaming nickname is Pluvio so I have to compliment your choice.
I've personally only got a few years on you, I became active in 2008 more or less~ :D
Dang, 2008 is quite a while ago!
And thanks ^v^
It will be interesting to see you make paint, or color line arts. It still impressive of you make a fake screenshot in disney vibe.
