New to the Fandom!
« on: February 08, 2016, 07:05:38 AM »
Hey guys, I am relatively new to the fandom. I mean I have known I was a furry since I was 16, I am 19 in a week and a half, but I have never really gotten into it besides liking furry facebook pages. I finally came up with my sona but I havent really sat and drawn her out because I'm new to figuring it out. So I wanted to go somewhere where I could ask fellow furs if they drew their own sonas or if they commissioned them by an artist? I'm not bad at drawing but i'm not fantastic either so if there are some good furry artists that you guys recommend for sonas, that would be awesome! I would love to have her finally drawn out because it will solidify what I am looking for by allowing me to see her as part of myself. Anyways my fursona is a female Snow Leopard named Sapphira Snow. I have noticed that there werent that many snow leopard fursonas when i went to try and find others, but that's okay! I'm here to talk to other furs about random stuff and to make friends. I want to get to know how things work and about cons and things. So if you guys want to say hi or have info then I am totally here for it! Thanks!  :3

Ah, salutations Sapphira. My name is Miss Armonia Mist, but you may call me Moni.
To answer one of your many questions, I drew my fursona, designed her myself a very long time ago. And at the time, my art skills were awful. There are a few artists here who take commissions or requests. I would love to, though I'm currently finishing some projects for others and I have a busy schedule, though I'd love a chance at drawing your fursona when the time comes.
As for the rest of my welcome, you'll have fun here. Meet lots of new friends and learn cool stuff.
I hope to talk again.
Happy Trails!~

Thank you guys for being so friendly and kind. It was nice to meet each of you! It was amazing to see another snow leopard fur too! Thank you guys for the advice on the art, I might try drawing her myself first, then maybe that will help for getting a more professional one done in the future :)

Hi! :D nice to meet you Sapphira  ^_^ I'm Alex  X3

Like some other furs have said before just check the art forum to see if you can get some free commissions  ^_^

But if you don't want to wait for someone to take your commission I know someone who is a really good artist and has makes really professional art  :) but they have a commission fee

Hi and thank you for the newer welcomes! I am really glad to be here. I tried my hand at rough sketching out my fursona, so maybe it'll be a decent reference if I get it commissioned! I dont think it's too bad. Thanks again for the warm welcomes. So far I am loving it here.
