At first, I loved anthro characters. I didn't know furries existed until I found a link to FA from Deviantart. Then, my first boyfriend was a furry and he opened it up a bit more for me, but after we broke up I had a bad taste in my mouth about it (because he was into some weird stuff). But I stayed on FA and kept watching. Then I decided to start drawing them because they were fun and I discovered I liked drawing porn. I've always been into anime and manga, so it wasn't a large step to come over here. Plus, the people are nice and supportive.

How long have you been drawing characters for? Did you draw much anime/manga stuff yourself before drawing anthros? And if so, did that make it any easier to start drawing anthros or was there still a whole bunch of new techniques you had to learn to successfully draw characters like that?
-
I have no idea when i started drawing characters...it just happened and I never noticed. I don't think I intentionally did it.
I drew a ton of anime/manga stuff before and it did help a lot. It gave me a place to start. At first, for me, i thought everything had to be picture perfect realism, but after doing a lot of cartooning, I found that I was more graphic oriented, so it was easier to draw that stuff. Anthro was a pretty easy switch, I just had to learn how to angle muzzles, figure out skulls from different animals and learn about feet/hands with paws and stuff. It took a little extra work, but it was worth it.

What's up with your avatar? Like, why is it what it is?

Lol. I've always loved doing graffiti work and I really liked the apocalyptic style of games like Borderlands. I had a friend in college who did a lot of gas mask art and I thought it was cool. So, since in like graffiti, I changed it to a respirator. In all reality, it was a doodle portrait that i just really liked. It's maybe a way I would like to see myself, but I have too many body-image issues to see myself like that. I consider him a goal to achieve.

Cool, thanks for the answer. I'd consider my otter as a bit of a goal too, but I'm fairly close to him. That one last hill is proving to be a bitch though, haha.

Lol, I have a long ways to go. I'm nothing like him at all.

Gotta take the first step, at least! I dropped and have maintained a 25 lb loss since November (lost all that weight in a short span of like.. 3 months, have kept it off for an additional 2 but have plateau'd). Not sure if you're trying to go up or down, but it's totally possible with the right attitude and plan of action!
-
I'll be totally honest with you, I'm terrified to lose weight. I want to, but I'm scared. I have watched a bunch of other people (one in particular) lose over 100lbs and then they turn into huge narcissistic assholes who think everyone wants to sleep with them. I've never been a healthy weight my entire life, I'm afraid of what it will do to my personality.
