FA+


Especially if the person is like "well shoot this is my life now..... not too bad i think!"
Another favorite is multibreast.
Elephant tfs are a go to.
And TFs that the subject is unaware of but others are can be pretty fun.
Truthfully any TF is a good TF ^^
Also love TF-TG, of course. C:
I'm not yet comfy writing it, but I love a well done TGTF and the slow burn TFs where people try to hide the changes.
A little bit of WG thrown in sometimes.
Shrinking but, not tiny.
Prefer fluffy to scaly.
But that's only the vanilla version.
That'll take you. :P
Slow burners are also good but in their own ways. :)
And Altair!! I love your work!!! But also question, for me, tf's are a very sexual pleasure for me. But for you, being a straight woman who is interested in mostly female animal tf. May I ask what the gratification is for you? Sexual? Scientific? I'm curious.
I also find it very erotic so it's also a sexual sort of gratification... In everyday life I'm straight, probably bi curious. But I get very turned on by other women helplessly becoming animals... it's the process that gets me, and sometimes picturing it happening to myself. A man transforming doesn't appeal as much to me.
So my theory is that it's too complicated and different for each and every being to allow us to elaborate any sort of general rules.
Hope I answered the curiousity. ^^
So, Transformations that are into something that is desirable to be in some way, or that would be interesting to experience. I prefer positive experiences over punishment and body horror.
However, there are a lot of nuances of pain, fear, surprise and confusion that make any tf scenario far more interesting.
I'm partial to the idea that TF is supposed to Hurt, at least a little. It is part of the price for gaining the benefit. It feels less meaningful if it doesn't seem earned.
I also really like an element of it being involuntary and spontaneous. Losing control as a different part of you demands to be let out. Not total mental takeover (if there is nothing of the original entity left, it is not so much a metamorphosis as just a murder-replacement. Not a fan of that), but an application of new priorities and impulses over the memories and identity of the individual. They still know who they are, but feel different.
I prefer Human to Animal/Anthro over Animal to Human, though Feral to Anthro can be fun.
Gender Change is especially fun, and as a Gender Dysphoric Male, Male to Female Transformations are particularly enjoyed, especially when they are embraced and eventually lead to Motherhood. (If only Real Life worked that way)
Growing at least a little bigger is more fun than shrinking (though tiny time is also fun), especially when ripping clothes are involved. I love, love, LOVE some good "Rippage".
Of course, taking any element to its extreme can be great fun, when done well. Super Sized, Super Feminine (or Masculine), Super Fast Transition, Super Intense New Impulses/Instincts, etc.
My favorite TFs are always the kind where I imagine myself in the situation of the one changing, and imagining what that would be like. ... even when it seems scary or dangerous. Just not Gross. I don't like disgusting TFs.
Basically you would be swallowed by a female sex organ and enter the womb when then them being connected to the "mother" by an Umbilical Cord, or a Egg Yolk where either over a long period of time or a short time the person either regressed back into a infant or further, to simply transformed into the species of the mother, then later reborn.
Also when the recipient is unwilling or doesn't realize the implications, like agrees oblivious the change is permanent, gets fulled into it or receives it as punishment.
Let's take a Male Human Jock -> Anthro -> Female version of that Anthro. Could you imagine the mental changes the person goes through along the way? If it were a realistic world how would the character and people around them react assuming it is a world where anthros do exist?
Ok, what if it were a reality alteration type story where the protagonist is the only person that appears to be aware of the changes happening as something that isn't normal?
These meta questions aside, how does the character react to getting a tail? Or getting used to walking on paws? Do they cut holes in their pants or buy new ones entirely? How do they feel about their changing bodies or change of sensation from rubbing a palm on the skin to rubbing paw pads on fur? What is it like to go into a woman's clothing store for the first time to buy a small bra because their chest is getting unbearable to handle without them all while trying to rationalize that the situation is only temporary while inwardly knowing that this is something they will have to get used to?
These are the questions that really interest me and is why I keep coming back to FA to see how others interested show their art or write their stories.
For me, Adult stuff is completely secondary. I am here for the TF.
I also like the those slow burn type of transformations that can progress from anywhere from a fuw hours to months rather then the rapid ones as in the case with most traditional werewolf transformations.
Also must be realistic with the transformation not being a even linear progress and body parts changing to there new species equivalent like teeth growing into a beak for example rather then the lips or jaw being the source. I hosted a journal in this regard last year ^^;

I think you depict animal transformations in such a unique way with your art, and.. somehow, in my opinion, you manage to make it the hottest. I am absolutely in love with your style!
Especially your feral TFs, which is definitely my favourite type: starting from a 100% human (woman preferably) and turning into a 100% animal. Love how you draw those changing bodies and always blend the shifting anatomy so well.
As for erotic vs embarrassed/unwilling well, I tend to prefer when there's a mix of both. I mean, feeling all your muscles throb (all of them ;) ), your legs reshape and being helplessly conformed to a new quadrupedal stance, must feel quite unique... I always imagine it to be like a full-body orgasm, even if there's some pain involved as well. The unwilling aspect would add to it, in such a way that it coulc be seen as a full-body bondage of sorts, except you don't just get physically restricted but physically altered. I find the concept extremely hot.
That being said, I don't have much interest for any of the other options of your poll, to the point where it usually turns me off to see them added to what could have been wonderful transformation art. Some people tend to think that the more the better and instead of doing simple animal TF they add breasts enlargement, and TG, and tentacles, and mixed bodyparts, and, and... and it becomes too much. I think the simpler the better. So my two cents go to simple human to feral animal TF, like i've seen so many good ones in your gallery. Thank you!~
