I guess if you want to publish art for arts sake then furaffinity is kinda hit or miss. I'm skaddidlying around in SFW mode to look up references or ask specific people for references all the time but guess what, this site still manages to give off these "mekka for furry porn artists" vibes...
Have you tried ArtStation? To publish your serious SFW work?
I really really like your content so far and already wanted to ask you time and time again how you got the fur of your models to look that nice... (it's not only Maya Xgen I suppose?)
All in all I gotta say that this picture is better than pretty much all the others I can see in your gallery. Better than the Zootopia characters, that's for sure.
An unused character from a scrapped dreamworks IP is the closest thing to an original creation when looking through your posts... aside from Etis and the Rabbit you were working with in the very beginning of course.
On a technical level you are already really interesting and if you ask me, far away from a failure.

Thanks you!
my SFW work in general are better mostly because the lack of porn mean that it have to be better to keep a certain interest, so I usually throw all my knowledge of 3d rendering and slightly more care, I could ofc do that for my NSFW, but that would mean spending time for something people may not really care, porn being porn, quality being second on that ..
there no much secret to my fur but a lot of experimentation, the tool (Yeti, Xgen, Houdini Fur) don't matter (with the exception of blender Fur which actually sux at a core level, you can spend as much time on a blender fur and it will just look bad anyway), they all can produce a hollywood level fur, but what people fail to understand when they use fur is the amount of work required to make that fur look nice, and a complete understanding of how light and fur interact in the 3d engine is important, and practically all 3D artist that do fur on FA are totally unaware of how they should really setup their shader (and that why it often look flat).
I would do more Original character if I was more of a creative person and less of a technicall one.

I'm in the exact opposite situation. I am mor of a creative person and have a character in the works which is an anthropomorphic ram.
Of course I am looking for references for the wool and the short hair on his face, legs and arms.
I'm getting a hang of "regular" hair and fur like the kind we'd find on dogs but I am beginning to think that I might end up in a world of frustration while attempting to get somewhat good looking wool.
Not gonna lie, it is quite a relieve to hear that your current fur quality is not bound to an expensive tool/plugin like yeti and can actually be achieved with Xgen.
However, I can't wait to see whatever you hold in store as your next SFW post, you definitely have a fan here in germany.

Xgen is the tool made by disney, they used it to create zootopia (A much different version tho), but fur in nothing else but a bunch of spline with a width and a shader, so the only thing a tool will bring you is ease of use and efficiency.
wool would however probably need a bit of R&D from your end, when you go to exotic stuff like that, the tool itself might become a limitation, but wool should be easily achievable, it mostly strand that are highly curled and twisted into little ball.
I personnally use houdini for fur, because it basically lets you 'make' your own tool, if it don't exist, you do it, that houdini ! and the fur that I now make on my character only take me a short amount of time!
And thanks, I sure hope i'll make more SFW in the futur.
