Sorta wondered if I should get a new fursona
11 months ago
I am a creature with too many interests ~
Don't take me wrong, I still VERY MUCH love Drake and all the work I have put into him and all the different versions I have made of him and gotten made for him. But as it has now soon enough been 10 years since I created him with the (kinda) first pic I ever made of him being this one: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/15330422/ and the first ever proper ref of him having been made (not by me) 9 years ago or so: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17365796/ so have I just been wondering if I should more or less retire Drake as my fursona and keep him just as one of my most important OCs.
I mean, as I've said so do I still very much like him, but besides the kind of clothes and accessories I put on him so isn't he the most unique character ever. Not that uniqueness is anything I've been going for. But besides thinking that him being an albino cat is cool and all so I would I definitely be lying if I said that most of his looks wasn't made just to be easy to draw. Mostly for my sake but of course also for just about everyone else's sake. I mean, a character with mostly white fur (like 80% white fur) and looking like your average anthro cat? Not exactly a difficult subject to draw! xD Again, not that a character being difficult to draw mean that they are a better looking character, of course ~
But yeah, I've just been wondering if I should take some time to think about how a character that truly embodies my likes and interest and wasn't just made to be easy to draw would look like. Or even if I should go in the direction of basing him more on my IRL look. As at least as of current so have I not colored my hair black, cut it all emo like and been wandering around with the most edgy and black clothes. :U Though making him be very white wouldn't be the most inaccurate I suppose ~ x3
Not sure what my possible new fursona would be for some species though. I wouldn't be surprised if they would just end up being another cat or whatever, with cats being one of my favorite animals. Would have to look through other peoples characters to look for inspiration.
Just at the top of my head so would one of these species be the most likely ones I would pick from:
- Felines
- Snakes
- Lizards
- Mice
- Bats
- Squirrels
- Maybe fox
- Some kind of hybrid
One of those, yes ~ :O
As I said, still not sure if I want to do it or not. Still very much like Drake and haven't thought in detail about/ or sketched out any possible new fursona. But this has just been something that's been on my mind for a while now. :3
That is all ~

If you still like him and he still fits then keep him.
If you feel like he's not a good fit anymore then change.
But if you're just wanting some diversity then I've seen plenty of people who have multiple sona's :)
Sometimes people who have sona's for multiple parts of their personality and sometimes just cause they liked multiple concepts.
What ever you decide to do just do it for you and have fun with it.
I changed mine within the last few years cause my old one didn't fit me anymore.
I went through a couple before I landed on the one I have now.
