I don't think it has to do with being a furry, just being an artist who happens to be interested in anthros. I'm pretty mediocre at that stuff, but it just takes a lot of practice and an understanding of everything that goes into making it. Though, I can tell you, as far as digital art goes, most of it is not the computer; the software is merely another medium that the artist uses as a tool, much like graphite pencils or oil paints or w/e.
