Narrowed down my fursona search to this smol bean and wondering what you all think?

His name is Thomas and he’s a sea bunny. He eats by filter feeding water and eating the microbes in it.

Narrowed down my fursona search to these three.

It’s narrowed down to either Thomas the sea slug cis gay male using he/him pronouns, Thomas the selkie cis gay male using he/him pronouns or Sabrina the human straight trans woman using she/her pronouns

The thing is I did a dna test and I only got 5% Scottish and 3% Irish DNA with majority Mediterranean DNA so I don’t know if I’d be culturally appropriating the selkie as I’m a white American.

Design Help! Color balance & value issues for an Eastern Dragon Fursona

Hi everyone! I’m designing my fursona and I’m having some trouble with the Value Scale (grayscale clarity).The Concept:He’s an Oriental Dragon with an athletic build.

His role is a "Paladin and Philologist," so I'm aiming for a noble and scholarly look.

The Palette:

Body: Ice Grey (Core color, very light).

Belly: Yellow.

Mane: Blonde.

Plates/Horns/Nose: Dark Slate Grey (Contrast anchor).

Patterns/Tattoos: Cyan/Turquoise.

The Problem:I’m having a hard time balancing these colors. As you can see in the second image (the color chart), when I test the design in grayscale, the Ice Grey body and the Yellow belly blend together because their brightness levels are too similar. I’m also struggling to create enough separation between the Blonde mane and the light-colored body.

How can I balance the light grey body with the yellow belly so they don't wash each other out?

How can I make the Blonde mane stand out more against the light grey skin?

Where would you place the Cyan/Turquoise accents to make them "pop" in this specific color scheme? Please ignore the roughness of the sketch! I’m still in the brainstorming phase and trying to figure out the color hierarchy before moving to final lineart.

Thank you to everyone in advance!

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!

Honest opinions on this pattern?

Hi :D

I'm designing my first fursona and feeling quite happy with how it's coming along, but I'm not sure about how to approach the patterning. If you have any suggestions for how you think of patterns, or what you'd do for for this particular fursona, I'd really appreciate it

Extra note, I'd quite like for the orange and pink to be more prominent than the blue, which I was thinking could be more subtle

choosing fursonas?

hi there, dabbling into furry culture and was wondering how you found your fursona? like do you pick what you relate to/look like, the animal you like the most or does it come naturally to you? i took a quiz and got answers i didnt really feel made sense to my personality but i also dont just wanna pick something that doesnt feel right. maybe im overthinking it, but id like some advice or input on how you come to the final decision of picking especially when buying fursuits. thx for ur help xx <3
