Well, to start, your characters don't have any fur. (except for *cough* Gosha xD) , or muzzles. They have human faces, hands and feet (and thank God, the genitals too >3> ). The only thing that changes is the color, the ears and the tail. So the way I see it, they are more like Humans with animal characteristics, other than animals with human chatacteristics.

As for the difference between anthro and furry.... I agree. Anthro could be the character, but a furry to me is the kind of people who only draw anthropomorphic characters, and BELIEVE in all the animal spirit rollo. So, I'm an artist who draws anthros now and then, but I wouldn't consider myself a furry :B

Nuff said :B *hugs and nuzzles you instead*

This.

Yeah, that's how I see it :) Though, anthropomorphic, literally is when you give human characteristics to non-human things. So ... I don't know.

It's all so confusing.

I think Granny is right. They would be zoomorphic if we see it that way :>

anthro is animals with human characteristics, which is basically what a furry is honestly

furry is a term more generally applied to all dem yiffin and yaffin kiddos

i think you draw more humans with animal characteristics

instead of anthropomorphic, your characters are zoomorphic

fun stuff

Hm, perhaps :)

After years & years, everybody is still trying to thrash around and build a vocabulary for what styles of art & storytelling are being done. There are some categories for the styles, but there may be at least 8 or so styles.

"I see "Anthro" as an art style, and "Furry" as a fandom,..."

'Anthropomorph' has been used as a code for science fiction-style critter construction. (Unique hats with ear-holes, etc.) I think that this sf approach for a style usually implies that humans co-exist in the same universe as the anthros. And the anthros are either aliens or recombinant gene mixes.

For "Furry" I would mostly agree that is is easier to use it for the fans. Furry fandom art can include all the design styles. However, there is a popular default 'furry mannerist' style -- I think of Terrie Smith's art for basic design examples.

The 'catgirl' style (human forms with animal-trim accents) is one modern way of telling fables about human culture (Omaha the Cat-Dancer). Usually only critters in those stories.

Interesting take on it :) Thanks for sharing!
