How to draw

While anthropomorphic characters have been popularized in our time by children's books and movies, they are certainly not limited to them. Half-humans, half-animals can combine the best of both worlds, giving the artist full control over the character without submitting to the stiff rules of realism. They're also so diverse that everyone can create a personalized, unique character expressing their own personality in a way not possible in the human reality.

Are you a furry? What is your fursona? What do you like the most about anthro characters? And if you're not a furry, what are your thoughts on the fandom, or anthro animals in general? I'd love to hear what you think, so feel free to leave a comment!

But furries are also part animals, and they can have additional means of conveying emotions. For example, most mammals show their mood by moving their ears, and a reptile can use its tongue for something more than tasting the air. Experiment with it to see how you can make these additional motions a part of understandable facial expressions.
