Scratch/Rasguño (Truesona, Alter) [Arachnophobia WARNING]

Based on the tarántula Tliltocatl verdezi/Brachypelma verdezi! However what makes it different is that it's a were-tarántula!

We have been very curious on implementation of various stuff look at our prior posts on fursonahelp, furgonomics, and here on bug_people!

We experience DID (dissociative identity disorder), AuADHD (autism & attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder), gender dysphoria, disabled with chronic sciatica, myopia, and other many things!

We wanted to explore personal protective equipment, mobility aid, and braces. Definitely would love to see more art of sonas/alters with eyewear, braces, splints & mobility aids who are neurodivergent. Whether is literal or metaphorical.

To explain the mouth it opens similar to fortune-teller origami that goes in/out/open/shut (with top/bottom & left/right sides). This emphasizes us being DID/transgender alongside the were-tarántula aspect.

Even the fangs retract for wearing a mask on the mouth as well as a mask on the abdomen for the book lungs! The mask is based on N95 "Duckfold" mask! We are Covid cautious/realists for allowing life affirming space aligned with disability justice!

We also use Ergocane 2G and Body Braid to help us be mobile! We wanted to include those in this design. Even the glasses are like goggles (which we eventually want to help prevent ocular spread, we just have regular lenses atm).

Scratch/Rasguño is very playful, curious, instinctual! Speaks in in 3rd person often expressing feelings, describing sensory experienced in very specific detail, and loves food/naps.

Would want to eventually explore what clothes would be like! Definitely alt/punk/goth/emo style for sure!

A finished design for my armor!

The armor shown is a generalization, but is meant to fit on mid-large sized mammals.

The tail armor is sometimes controversial, so I’m curious to see what you think.

how would disabled anthro ears work?

hi this may be a really weird request
i have a character (no art of her unfortunately) that is an anthro wolf person. i want to keep her anatomy pretty accurate and believable to a wolf
however i had this idea so that she has paralyzed ears (for lore reasons), which would keep themselves pointing down, which resulted from a head injury
the thing is i dont know how itll work or if it even would make sense. i know ears in general are made of cartilage so they dont really have muscles or any nerves that wouldlead to the ears getting paralysis. would i need to make it so both ear tendons (or whatever makes the ear move in the first place) somehow get slashed pr otherwise become immobile?
as you may be able to tell idk much of anatomy so this may turn into a biology lesson instead ;/

Let's solve this!

Firstly, I'm using a translator for this since English isn't my native language, so please excuse any mistakes.

Okay, so how do you think furries would use the tails on their pants? Would they stick out over the top or through a hole? Why? Would it vary between species? I'm all ears!

ive wanted to add nav lights to my vrc avatar for a bit now but i always wondered where to put them

-shoulders could be covered due to flapping of wings
-tips is always visible but could be difficult to see due to movement (though that would indicate wingspan and beat size or whatever)

as for the actual lights im imagining something like just a plastic wristband with an LED on it
