Sometimes I draw humans
For fun, and why not? I know this is an anthro site, but I draw MLP ponies without reservation (although even in their original form one can easily argue they are still anthropomorphic), or nekomini, so why not straight up people? Won't be often but once in a while I need to pencil an idea in my head of a person.

Here's something fun you might hot have known: back in the 80s, almost the whole Latin American region was going through a terrible economy (not half as bad as it is right now...) and local factories had to get licenses and molds to the toys of the era from Hasbro, Mattel, Kenner, etc. to make their own versions, often with lower quality materials, but still not badly made. I inherited a ton of old Venezuelan-made He-Man toys from my cousins when I was a kid, all since sadly given away. One of these days I'll have the means to buy them on my own from eBay.
We made some of the 80s G.I. Joes too -series 1 was the early, more military figures from '82 (they were the only molds we could get at the time) and series 2 completely skipped the entire roster and jumped to the '89/'90 era. Thus we never produced the likes of Flint, Hawk, Lady Jaye, Destro, Cobra Commander or Storm Shadow, which would be like producing retro Star Wars toys and not having Luke, Darth Vader, Han, Leia, Obi-Wan, Boba Fett, etc. XD

But of course! In fact, why not enjoy a song about that very topic (from 2007)?
