OK, but before we do, I just wanna point out that Sleet started this.

Douglas Collier · Post by **Douglas Collier** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 12:13 am

I think Jeff was pointing out that Diss discussed pronounciation (unrelated to the topic) and then told us to get back on topic, meanwhile forgetting or neglecting to contribute to the topic at hand.

Actually, moderators may post to enforce rules without touching the thread's topic and JeffCvt was reiterating my call for on-topic discussion. Please do not mini-mod. If you feel a rule was broken, you may report the offending post. As this thread cannot stay on topic even with nudges and outright instructions from staff, it's outlived its usefulness.

Edit: I've been assured discussion from here on will focus on fursonas and participants will pay attention to and follow moderators' instructions. Let's see how that goes.

Thanks so much for unlocking the thread, Diss!

Sorry for the off-topic discussion and mini-modding.

Now, let's get back to sharing and discussing those fursonas and OCs!

I actually have a few more drawings of my various forms, they're currently cycling through as my avatar.

Captain Pea's drawing of my cat form:

Coatl_Ruu's drawing of my wolf form (cropped from a larger image):

and NickCole's drawing of my human form:

and then there's Rick's drawings of my dog form colored by Douglas Collier:

I wanna list some fun facts about my character but I don't wanna hog the thread.

Might as well, especially since there are no otters yet :3c

Primary fursona: Lee Shui Ta, Asian small-clawed otter. My icon is him. Only anthro form.
OC: Well, I have a whole lot created over time, but then again, I consider all my ex-RP characters as my OCs as well. I'd rather not list them all.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Sun Jan 04, 2015 3:59 pm

If I listed ever ex-OC I had, we would be here for 9 years.

Deske · Post by **Deske** » Sun Jan 04, 2015 4:06 pm

I don't have any other 'sonas or OC besides what I've already stated, unless you include RP characters.

I only have ever had one fursona~

Though species change week had me be a cinccoxgle (cinccino/fox/moogle), a deer, and a kangaroo!

One fursona? Wow, that is quite the dedication.

(Sleet, is that Keith from TK in your avatar slot?)

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Mon Jan 05, 2015 5:12 am

I was still working out the details of my fursona last Species Change Week so I didn't change. So I've also only ever had the one. I might try SCW this year though. Anyone know when it is?

SergeiTheFox wrote:(Sleet, is that Keith from TK in your avatar slot?)

Sleet uses a randomiser so she has lots of different avatars. But let's keep this discussion on topic. If you see the arctic fox in his avatar, that's her fursona.

Punchy · Post by **Punchy** » Mon Jan 05, 2015 5:34 am

I've been thinking about changing my fursona to a lesser panda, maybe...

Hlaoroo wrote:I might try SCW this year though. Anyone know when it is?

I think it's the first week of May, but I'm not 100% sure.

Douglas Collier · Post by **Douglas Collier** » Mon Jan 05, 2015 10:45 am

But then you would no longer be the Internet's only sea urchin.

Of course, having digits would be nice, I guess.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Mon Jan 05, 2015 3:23 pm

You can have more than one OC.

Deske · Post by **Deske** » Tue Jan 06, 2015 11:59 pm

Sleet mentioning species change reminded me of long ago, probably a year ago. When I was flipping through species, my first and longest choice was an arctic fox.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Wed Jan 07, 2015 12:03 am

My Housepets! OC was originally a mix before I settled on pureblooded St. Bernard.

Yeah, well, it was fun while it lasted... I think...
I can always change back later on if I want to.

Douglas Collier wrote:Of course, having digits would be nice, I guess.

Yes, that would be nice.
I'd also get more hugs

Czukay · Post by **Czukay** » Wed Jan 07, 2015 7:36 am

After I am farther along with my "Fanfiction" I'll post OCs from that here. Actually, I'm extremely new to the furry scene, and all I have... Is Winston (OC) and Czukay (My Fursona).

Well, let me know when it's official.

A sea urchin, huh? That's all hokey pokey for me, just don't go to a balloon party

.

As a fruit bat, I can appreciate the look of RandomGeekNamedBrent's winged forms. I could totally go for having those; turning heads as I fly around like a tough-guy.

To reiterate, my fursona's a feral fruit bat... which might be difficult, considering that he's also a stand-up comic at night clubs. Probably more of a "crawl around" or "hang upside-down" comic then... Also, it's hard to hold the mike when you're all thumbs... Aaand I used up my joke quota for the year.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Wed Jan 07, 2015 4:14 pm

Good. No more jokes or I'm gonna send you to the Osborns for Easter!

Douglas Collier · Post by **Douglas Collier** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 12:35 am

You know something interesting? My first real fursona was a corgi - back in 2008 I used PowerPoint to draw a shirt, pants, and a collar on a stock corgi picture. I also used a photo editing program to color the eyes blue. I called him Corgi [Insert my real name here].

I guess he was the prototype for Douglas.

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 12:42 am

Funny thing. I have yet to draw my fursona myself. I do have an idea though that I'm going to start work on shortly.

Czukay · Post by **Czukay** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 11:44 am

I used to just be a German Shepherd, but then I decided I wanted to add a bit of Tamaskan.
If you haven't seen one before, this is a Tamaskan dog. They were Finnish dogs bred to look like wolves.

Douglas Collier · Post by **Douglas Collier** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 12:07 pm

So you injected yourself with viral tamaskan DNA?

(and then perhaps accidentally stuck yourself with some viral red fox DNA - hence the orange color? 0.o )

Czukay · Post by **Czukay** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 12:11 pm

It's complicated... It involved being abducted by aliens....

Douglas Collier · Post by **Douglas Collier** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 12:31 pm

They didn't happen to be Sulenxi mad scientists, did they?

Czukay · Post by **Czukay** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 12:33 pm

Perhaps... I don't remember most of the experience.... But it's quite possible.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 3:52 pm

Of course not, because they wiped your mind Men in Black style.

To clarify: We have never abducted any earth-creatures for any purpose. We just watched you sometimes.

Douglas Collier · Post by **Douglas Collier** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 7:16 pm

Not even your mad scientists?

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 7:32 pm

Those of you who have fursonas, how many of you are on FA or active in the furry community?
Here's my FA with lots of art of my fursona. Feel free to add me but make sure to tell me your forum username so I know who you are.

I'd like to be more active in the community but I've never had a chance to get to any cons, nor do I know any good, clean furry places online other than here and FFC.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Fri Jan 09, 2015 12:28 am

I roleplay sometimes in the anthro universe (one partner has a cowboy character, and for some reason I have been craving a marine corps character) and I do have an FA, but thats it pretty much.

I'm still working out the details and everything, might even attempt to draw it.

At some point I'd like to get someone to draw my old 'sona.

Hlaoroo wrote:Those of you who have fursonas, how many of you are on FA or active in the furry community?

No, I'm not active in the community, though I'd like to be a bit more.
I've though of getting an FA, but I've heard negative things about it.

Douglas Collier · Post by **Douglas Collier** » Fri Jan 09, 2015 11:19 am

So would that be anthro or feral, Punchy?
Also, you realize that being a red panda and having the name Punchy isn't going to make it easy for us to resist making Kung Fu Panda / Master Shifu references, right? XD

To be fair you can hear negative things about any community or piece of equipment

I'm not really active on FA but I have one. I would like to be more active too though.

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jan 12, 2015 11:29 pm

If you're concerned about FA, get a Weasyl account instead!
