More from Rindimo
As 
reikosazanami 's challenge so states:
You see it all the time on furry websites, chat clients and Second Life. Perfectly sculpted bodies, thin-but-muscular or slim-yet-curvy builds, impossible body types-- That NONE of us have in real life. If we do, we're in the minority.
So I challenge you, FA. Take a photo of yourself, fully clothed or in your skivvies. Trace your body type and marks exactly, blemishes, scars and all. Then apply your character to the form. Let's see what the REAL face of FA is.
This is an interesting little meme with some problems, so I hopped on board:
I stand 6'1" tall, and weigh 215 pounds. Size 12 feet, EEE width. (My ring size is 12, too!) Only Extra Large hats can fit my giant skull, and the frames for my glasses I wear have to always be special orderred. You can't see it, but I have an 8" scar on my left arm from breaking my radius back in 2001 promptly after buying a new bicycle... and seeing how fast I could go... The scar is from a titanium plate holding my bones together, and to this day, you can still discern how many stitches it took to hold the incision together. (I call this surgical "masterpiece" the "Thermometer.")
If I lost 15 pounds, I'd be looking pretty cheetah-ishy, because I have some muscle trying to show through-- and I have a giant pair of lungs!
Now really, this meme suffers from one huge fallacy: this isn't the "REAL" me! Nor you! There's just so many subtleties a truly un-alterred photo will show, instead of tracing over a photo, and filling it in with flat colors and what-have you. So much of the ugly can still be kept hidden, you silly people. You really aren't proving much-- if anything-- at all! Your fursona though slightly alterred to at least resemble your sillohuette is still one giant facade/shield to hide behind! REAL face of FA, my ass! HA!
On that note, I'm no differrent, but look! I own a bandanna and live in a 120+ year old building in the old industrial part of town! (Mad scientist country!)

I know! It is such a sweet place to live in! I've been slowly turning the basement into a grand workshop! If I had known you were going to take a peek at me, I would've at least made the illusion I'm not such a clutter bug... and like... have a rose in my mouth instead.
It's funny that you bring this up, because while throwing this picture together, it had me thinking about working on a costume, and casting my head to make some silicone prosthetics and all-- an overly ambitious project, of course.
I have no real qualms about nudity, having seen far worse in my nude figure drawing classes in art school, (60 yr. old men in scary poses come to mind) and I have seen the deals where women are painted in that fashion for magazines and publicity. I don't think it'd cause that much of a stir because all my natural body hair would hide everything just fine. People wouldn't even know the differrence. Actually, that's a lie, I'm not that hairy, it's just all that stuff is so easy to conceal because it's so tin-- er... uh...
Nah, I'm kidding. I'm sure it would cause some sort of stir.... in a martini glass!
I apologize. But yeah, I don't think I could get anyone to paint my back for me, and despite my love for causing ruckus, I would like to stay for the entire extent of the con, instead of just the 15 minutes of infamy. ;) (especially since I've yet to go to one, and want to milk it for all its worth!)

I think you need a big ol' Jacob's ladder for ambiance lighting, or is that ambiance lightning? (mad scientist laugh followed be a coughing fit) Danged chest cold... Colds are eeeeviilll..... But I'm getting better. Y'know, you need socks with little cheetahs on them, ooh ooh!, and a bigger gold chain that says Rindimo in big letters, yeah! XD
You know, I DO have a pair of old rabbit ear antennas that are useless with today's HD TV.... Believe it or not, I have half of a dirod electrostatic generator lying on the floor of my bedroom. It needs to be redesigned now that I solved a commutator problem. ;)
LOL, I got it-- I'll wear a cuckoo clock for a pendant!
