Sup, furry here as well since i think almost 12 years now? I am more a ghost in the fandom, i am here for suits & art and bit of talking, but i usually stay at my little border since stuff can get wierd the deeper you get and i want to avoid that. Consider myself a Monsterwolf/Wendigo, seems to be the perfect fit since i tend to enjoy the darker stuff. So my fursona can pull the skin of her face to reveal a neat clean skull, no liquids whatsoever. The skin itself is magic and can just appear again on the skull.

And yeah, fighting with a huge femur, 'cause no sticks or stones will break this bone ;D

@Yuubi

okay your fursona is absolutely amazing ;-; how were you inspired to make her? c:

@scared Thats a bit of a long story, she is the very first redisign of my fursona after over 10 years (new design is not even a year old) Yuubi, well me, was before just a normal grey wolf at first with a few markings, i later added the fire demon kyoki (edge™, long tongue, skeletal body, BLADES) to the mix and worked on a backstory for them that fit what happend to me in RL. She is basically based of a wolf i encountered on my birthday (i was 12 or so??) in a zoo, i was allowed to go into the wolf area with two keepers and was allowed to pet one. I felt like a disney princess XD [center][img]http://t.facdn.net/22593280@400-1486933036.jpg[/img][/center] And since two years, something felt off so i started to redesign and collected material, studied creeatures, real or not, and piece everything together. Took me forever to find a fitting hairstyle and set the markings >_> So the current design is based on a few things. - Previous design - Wendigo - Masks (in general) - Dragons? (longer tail, scale like belly fur texture, flame like tailtip) - sKeLeToNs (skull boi™) - the fact that i am undead in theory (clinical death due to drowning) - vikings/dwarfs (hearstyle & beard dispite being female) - edge i think that together was the final mix. But tbh, a fursona is like a pair of pants. You will keep growing and there are times they start feeling too small or too big for you, you either buy (create) new ones or get scissors and needle and make them fitting again.

@Yuubi

that was a lot more heart warming than i expected and i love you and Yuubi ;-;

@scared

Thanks! I am quite happy how it all turned out and how jucin got it on (digital) paper despite my terrible sketches xD
>Ref Sheet
>Sketch 1
>Sketch 2



Just found your sketches of your sona Calendula and i have to say, skull faces unite!
Kinda has a Chupacabra look, atleast how people on FA imagine it, love the scaly tail and the ears! Huge and fluff and alert!
And with the pastel paws, feet and whitish skull, give a kinda reverse siamese cat look which is very interesting!

Do you keep the raptor claw toes? They are missing on the last pic, which is why i am asking.
For your first fursona, very very unique and intertesting design! Ping me if you manage to get a Ref Sheet, they are kinda expensive but totally worth it with the right artists.


You are an Undertale fan as well, right? 'cause of "Amalgamate" =D
The first picture i linked, the punk like one, is acually based on Susie from Deltarune when it comes to to pose and the purple shirt, on ref is a blue one XD

@Yuubi

i do indeed love their raptor toes, but my friend did the last drawing for Calendula, not me, so they didn't include the raptor toe ;w; and i want to get a ref sheet so bad, but i don't have an income at the moment T-T

and i actually didn't know there was a character in Undertale named Amalgamate ;-; he was actually based off of a fire-breathing dog my friend (same one who drew Calendula for me) drew on my arm in math. i pointed at the dog and named him Amalgamate in the span of .2 seconds... i thought i was being original, RIP

@scared Amalgamate is not a character in Undertale, its a species name even tho! When monsters are about to die (turn to dust) and are injected with DETERMINATION, they lose thier solid form and kinda become goopy, so much, that they can merge and fuse to other monsters, creating a chimera which can bend somewhat reality: an Amalgamate [center][img]https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/undertale/images/d/da/Endogeny.gif[/img][/center] Honestly, they all are A+ nightmare fuel even tho Endogeny (the doggo chimera in the gif) is a sweetheart You came a bit over 3 years to late, sorry =/

@Sprinklez1234

haha, that's what i always hear from all the fursuiters c: i think someone measured it can get up to 100 degrees fahrenheit in them??
