    My fursona is a goat. Well actually he’s 1/4 sheep and 3/4 goat. But anyway, his name is Jonas and he’s grey with spots and lop ears. He always makes me so happy whenever I look at him and I draw him all the time. Plus it’s fun to draw him interacting with my sister’s fursona. It’s another fun thing that we can do together and bond over.

    My sona is a river otter x Tiger shark hybrid!! I love her so much, I slowly developed and changed her design over the past 2 years and she’s perfect now!! My favorite features are her stripes, her fluffy hair, her tail, and the fact that I never really see people with the same hybrid almost at all!(/
  • Me: denies being a furry Also me: watches many furry memes, knows things about furries, and also is watching a video how to make a fursona Who I really am? A liar?
  • @sunsetshine5170

    My fursona is an alien wolf hybrid! My alien-wolf fursona lives in packs/ groups much like wolves! some features that I like about my fursona is that instead of its chest "fur" being fur, it contained in an unbreakable see-through, glass-like shield that contains liquid gold. The liquid gold is not only stored in its chest, but It's also stored in its muzzle, which when it opens its mouth to speak, eat exc, a bit of that liquid gold may drip out, but my fursona has adapted to it and has been able to prevent it most the time. It's also stored in the lower parts of its tail, antenna feet paws, and arm paws, but surprisingly, it's not stored in its paw beans. My hybrid fursona also has 4 orbs in which contain the liquid gold, which transfer it into energy, food and so on. The orb with the liquid gold that is being transferred into energy will hover slightly over its tail, while the other 3 are stored in special places in its back which keep them intact and in place. My fursona has 4 arms and 2 legs for extra protection if all of its orbs have been used and emptied. The 2 extra arms are used for things like for things like carrying more things, being able to switch energy orbs during a fight if it has to. The way for my fursona to get more liquid gold is to either drink unpurified water (to transform the minerals from the water into gold, which takes a while.) or to get a hold of anything made of gold and melt it into liquid gold (which only works if it has enough liquid gold stored in it to do so.). It is incapable of doing any of these things, then it will fly to find specifically yellow fruits which don't work as well as its liquid gold does, but after 1-3 weeks, the fruit will be changed to liquid gold once more. Male alien-wolves have liquid diamond unlike the females who have liquid gold. Males, instead of antennas, it has a 2nd tail which gives it slightly more energy because the male alien-wolves usually lead their packs. Male alien-wolves do have energy orbs. Female alien-wolves have liquid gold unlike the males who have liquid diamond. Females, instead of having a 2nd tail, have antennas, which they use to communicate to their pups. It is rare to see a female alien-wolf leading a pack because they don't have as much strength and energy as the males do, and usually have to take care of their pups. A female alien-wolf is only made leader if it has proved its strength by beating a male alien-wolf in a battle. I'm sorry if it's a lot, I got a little excited writing about my fursona hybrid. Anyways, I called it fursona or alien-wolf because I haven't thought of a name for it yet. I do take name recommendations though! ^v^ If I made any mistakes in my spelling, plz excuse it. I finished writing this at 12:53 almost 1AM. So, my grammar is going to be all over the place |||n||| NOT sexist alien-wolves 🙃🤪

    5:50 In my opinion, if you bought the adoptable, the design is yours and you can adjust it however you want. It is your character afterall. If the craetor doesn't want you to change the design, it should be their responenlity to tell you before they sell it to you. When it comes to editing the original art of the character, I agree though. You shouldn't edit art that someone else made and post it without their permission.
  • @Kittycake79
    I put a lot of love and work into my fursona which I wanted my fursona to have a cool glitchy esthetic like I cute fluffy little computer virus and you can pet him but his fur gives off the same static feeling of touching a old fashion TV screen so his fur feels like fluffy fur and TV static
  • @literalphoton
    one of my fursonas' color pallettes was inspired by the colors of some kid's shoe i saw in gym class😩
  • @Sam_the_cob
    My fursona is a sleepy and lazy puma who where’s a green beanie and has hazel eyes. They also are called olive and go by they them
  • @roachdogjr_985
    I have a few ideas of what my fursona will be, but this was really helpful! Thank you <3 (also your fursona is absolutely adorable)
  • @RosheenQuynh
    My fursona is currently getting redesigned and I'm so excited about it! 😄
  • @floof6105
    I love designing fursonas! I draw a lot in flipaclip
  • 🐌🌸 My fursona's a snail with a lily, her design is flawless, won't change it slightly. 🎶
  • @KilosFoxo
    My fursona is a just composite of my old sonic oc with my transformers oc taking the anthropomorphic animal and organicness from the sonic oc and the wings, the car he drives/alt mode, the more canine like species/beast mode, personality and vehicle skills from my transformers oc while adding some exclusive traits to them too like the colours having more yellow than my tf/sonic oc's
  • @DogBat
    I tend to make fursonas that are one personality trait of mine like that’s what they are focused on
  • ok i thought a was going to get an art tut on it but. this helps more :)
  • @PichuDude1999
    I accidentally made my own furry, well scalie, and fursona (scalsona?). Everyone looked at me and thought I was a furry; I never understood why until someone explained what a furry and fursona actually was! The furry fandom was always interesting, but I didn't think I had place. Now I know that I always did! ❤😊
  • @LMCScout
    My ideas for my fursona are kinda all over the place, but I know I’ve got a few nailed down features. I want it to be Fox related (may end up a hybrid), feature darker colors, and never be without it’s personal effects. To be specific, lockpicks, playing cards, and knives. Probably with a pranksterish personality.
