Hey uh, im Jay. This is the first render i made off a furry, the character is just a random one to test my possible abilities, im proud and bittersweet at the same time, i of course referenced the pose in shapes, and created based off of them, but small details such as the hand or nose were "" traced"" (i adapted it to my liking once i had the basic concept of how it looked) the nose was i think from a ai art (i couldnt care less about using ai shitart to just reference on shapes or trace and adapt something i didnt understand, ai is trash and i dont feel guilty about it)
Now, for the rest, shading, overall lineart and everything else was totally fair game made by me, i just couldnt just outright lie and say that im a perfect artist, im not, im pretty unskilled in furries.
On this topic, the furry community, something i always thought was so cool and that i wanted to join in, even though people judged me for it, i was never good at drawing animals, and im so glad to be here today just showing yall this drawing, im excited for comments (i LOVE comments) and to see how such a dedicated fandom and community will welcome me, i didnt made a fursona yet, and i do have a tendency to do art for others rather than a oc when it comes to furries, (maybe i didnt fully made myself into one yet, mentally) but i hope you all can be kind and cool with me, peace out, and thank you, enjoy! :)
