FURSONA QUESTIONS YARF
17 years ago
General
I am a self-conscious furfag. Therefore I like to ask things about myself.
And about you, actually.
MY QUESTION ABOUT ME IS: What do you think about my fursona? IS IT BORDERLINE SPARKLEDOG? I sure hope not! I don't plan on changing it, but for some reason, complex things bother me sometimes. But I can't decide if it's too complex or fine how it is.
My reasons for even having it as...what it is... is because I pretty much combined things that relate to me. Like... my favourite colours, my astrological sign, ILdogs, etc.
My other questions are... what is YOUR opinion on FURSONAS that have weird colours/strange markings/other animal parts, etc? Is it too much?
AND: Why is your fursona/character what it is? :O
...GOD THIS JOURNAL. I don't know if I can take it! What can I say? I'm in that kind of mood. Also this is furaffinity ahaha.
MURPURFUR ETC. <___>

FA+

Mine changes alot cause I try to make it too much like me. I try to make my fursona animal match my personality exactly and its really hard. So far I think I am going to stick to domestic dog. But the future will tell if I change it AGAIN
Full of vibrancy.
What do i like most about my fursona?
Um.
He shakes his ass to good music.
BOOTYSHAKEBOOTYSHAKE. It's a good thing to have. ;D
Mmhm.
All the time.
I think it's a good design. It's distinctive enough, but it doesn't try too hard to be too original (see ten million rainbow colored emo/raver wolves with twenty-thousand piercings). And the incorporation of the Aries symbol is a clever marking.
Personally I'm fine with oddly-colored fursonas, just so long as it's not overdone (aka. FREAKING RAINBOW-COLORED EMO/RAVER WOLVES!). I'm also cool with strange markings as long as it's not overdone.
I'm a little picky on animal hybrids. I LOVE odd hybrids (like a rabbit/chicken which I did for an art trade). But a lot of fursona hybirds are just silly... like wolf/tiger hybrids, or wolf/dragon hybrids... (Yes, I'm using "wolf" as an example a lot, because, while God knows I love real wolves, but most furry wolves are overdone. ... I like your fursona though... although it's a shiba-inu/ram... not a wolf/ram, right?)
Why is my fursona what it is... Oh this question...
First my fursona started out as a bird. That lasted shortly because I made up an alien race for a D&D campaign called a "Strakk". I liked the design and changed Krat to a "Strakk". Then I got bored of drawing the canid-esque face (which looked a lot like Anubis), and part of me did get real tired of seeing ten-million other canid/canid-esque fursonas.
After a while, I re-discovered my love for "Spy vs Spy" and their facial design (pointed, birdlike faces). Also combined with my friend's insistence that I have a bird fursona because I reminded her of a bird, I changed Krat's face to a pointed, birdlike face... AND THUS THE POINTY-FACE WAS BORN!
Thank you! EMO RAVER WOLVES AAAA MY WORST ENEMIES. Seriously. <__> Yeah! My fursona WAS a wolf, but I was like "YEAHNO WOLVES ARE OVERRATED HI 60% OF THE FURRY FANDOM"
I really like your fursona, as I've said! It's really original, and hella cool. AND REMINDS ME OF POUGHKEEPSIE TAPES even though you can't watch it!
THEY ARE! >:C They make me feel... horrible things.
Thanks. ^.^
ME TOO. Especially if it fits. I like cool colour schemes. 83
I WAS TELLING SOMEONE THE OTHER DAY THAT I LOVE YOUR FURSONA. It's really awesome.
I think it depends on the person. On a rare occasion, overcrowding makes sense. Like, Rei's fursona is like, putting it's toe over the sparkledog DO NOT CROSS line, but her fursona fits her! But mostly, I think that sparkledogs go way too far and try just a weeee bit (and by that I mean A LOT) too hard.
U KNO ME
Good point! If the person doesn't fit the fursona, then they shouldn't try to make something that isn't...them. right? Just doesn't feel right I spose.
LIKE SPARKLEDOGS THEY LIKE TO FLY AROUND WITH THEIR GIANT HAIR AND WINGS AND EYES AND STRIPEBUTTSTARS etc!
MINE IS SIMPLE AS I AM SIMPLE. It's true though, I wanted something with few colours and a neat, sort of refined design. I don't really know if it comes off that way, hope so! I know its not a particularly original design but eastern dragons is what I like, and as there didn't seem to be all that many around when I was designing a character, I had no compunctions over choosing it.
I like that a lot, actually! Simple can be great! And it certainly works!
i am a huge sucker for strange hybrids. i just love them. it's fun to see animal traits combined so that you can pick out what's from what.
your fursona is awesome, distinctive and most certainly not sparkledog. i don't find it overcrowded, i just find it awesome :V hybridddssss. nom.
my character's a pitbull-lion hybrid! haha. the pitbull part is mostly because they're my favorite breed, but also because they like to get attention and loves, and i'm guilty of that trait, too i guess. the lion part is because 1. i'm a leo and 2. it just fits the way i look irl, because i have HUUUGE hair :>
...FURRIES. :D
OH MYGOD YOU'RE JUST LIKE ME BUT A PITBULL LEO AND NOT A SHIBAINU ARIES HIGH FIVES.
Also thank you!
You're so right! I do love hybrids a lot, as long as they aren't "trying too hard" so to speak. YOURS DEFINITELY DOESN'T AND I LOVE IT
FURRIES WOO!
AWWWWW YEAAAH
IT'S OBVIOUS WE MAKE A SMASHING TEAM.
:D
Why?
I am a trickster and TOO FOTHERMUCKING TALL!!!
I can change the Half part, but never the Coyote. It's been a part of me since that inccident at the Sweat lodge..
Long Story.
