I'm joking, but you really don't have a fox tail listed. While a lot of people just like to use wolf tails as stand-ins, foxes tend to have thicker and more rounded tails while wolf tails are thin and pointed.

good call. I just draw them all super floofy like 90% of the fandom 8D

LOL yeah, I don't really get that. I try to be distinct between wolf tails and fox tails because they are both nice in their own ways with the tail tip shape.

I just like really big tails hahah so I tend to over exaggerate them, because they're helpful in building the composition and can help lead the eye to places. But small tails are harder to do that with x:

Aaaaalso I forgot to ask if there were any undies/bottoms/accessories I should do! If you have any suggestions I would love to hear those as well.

Digital Artist

OP

Nono I was definitely asking for actual references too! No worries. Especially for weird tails I hadn't considered yet.

Digital Artist

Inkmaven ~inkmaven

OP

Digital Artist

Mhmm! The base is tailless, and I also made a chubbier version of the base so there's two different ones to choose from :D

Hmm...Guess all burbs is covered by Turkey tail...fish tail? Shark tail?

Inkmaven ~inkmaven

OP

Digital Artist

Ya it's supposed to be like a spread out, somewhat flat feathered tail. I figured shark would be covered by the tapered tail (Because the tip doesn't show, but some sharks have fins on -top- of their tails so I should still probably do one.

Thanks for the suggestions~

ooh, a poodle one I hadn't considered. I think deer and rabbit miiight be close enough that I can get away without that extra though... Maybe.

(Also thanks for the recent watch! :D )

Mmmmm monkey tail? Multi/split tails of any sort?

Inkmaven ~inkmaven

OP

Digital Artist

9 years ago

hmm, I don't have any multiple tails OR split tails... Any specific suggestions/popular styles you were thinking about in particular?

Shining-Scales ~shining-scales

Writer

uhhh first thought was kitsune, another was I think there's some sort of cat demon species that has it? Nekomata? There might be others, those were just the two I thought of. I wasn't even sure if there would be room for any split tails. xD

Inkmaven ~inkmaven

OP

Digital Artist

9 years ago

A kitsune would be quite the challenge XD

Mostly the first half or so of the tail is showing, unless it's docked or short but for some of the important ones (sergals, the 'demon' tail, the lion tail, etc) I made sure the tip was visible so it could show, but probably not if it was split at the very tip.

Shining-Scales ~shining-scales

I'd say pass on it then cause man all that fluff. But maybe multi demon tails or something could be manageable.

Also it's great how much effort you're putting into these.

I may be able to help with wolf. Just let me know what exactly you need!

Fat Chow Chow

Thin tapered (so like a thin dog tail, but not rounded at the end like a cat)
Thin curled (like a pug or other thinner curled tailed dogs, or maybe even a pig (realistic pig, not corkscrew tail cartoon pig))

Inkmaven ~inkmaven

OP

Digital Artist

Ahh like a dalmatian, good call.

Exactly! Wasn't sure how to describe/name it xD
