ProjectComment Anthro Features- October 2009

=MachinesBleedToo:iconMachinesBleedToo: reports, November 1
As a Staff member at *ProjectComment, it is my duty to seek out Deviations one week or older with 0-5 original comments. I am in charge of the Anthro category.

These choices are forwarded onto the admins and then featured in a news article to help give a wider audience to these under-appreciated artists by exposing them to a group of people willing to leave original comments.

An original comment is not something like: "cool", "I like it" or "nice."

You can help too. Drop a constructive, thought out comment on these artworks if you find the time. It would be greatly appreciated by both parties! :heart:

Within this article are my feature picks for this month.

The History & True Definition of the Furry Fandom

^Katmomma:iconKatmomma: reports, October 13
This article is the most all inclusive, accurate, and informational resource for every question you have about the Furry Fandom. It Provides a complete chronology of Anthropomorphic Characters & Concepts throughout history, And CLEARLY Defines what this "fandom" is all about.

Before you read this little blurb I'm writing and think to yourself "Why do I care? Furries are weird people" Reconsider your thinking. If you enjoyed Disney films and Old-skool cartoons to any degree, then you share an interest with millions of people world wide. You don't have to be obsessed. You don't have to be attracted to a Vixen built like a brick house. You don't have to draw talking animals.........

all you have to do is appreciate animals, objects, or natural phenomena that can relate to you, emotionally, behaviorally, and to some degree, physically.

Obviously there will be people who prefer not to be labeled. But please make sure you have read what the entire article presents before you take offense to this. Because really if you've truly read it, there is no reason to.

A very interesting read for anyone who has doubts or concerns. Highly educational and you'll get a history lesson too. ;) Check it out!

Much appreciation goes to the author of this Document. I did not write this, and the article does not reflect my opinion. But there is a lot of good useful info in there that will get you thinking.

Anthro


Featuring: Unusual Furries -- Bugs

~Skittycat:iconSkittycat: reports, November 15, 2008
I've noticed, while browsing the Anthro section, that you see the same anthros over and over again. Cats, dragons, wolves, canines in general--with a few others thrown in. These are all well and good, but sometimes I long to see people attempt more unusual anthros. This series is dedicated to featuring the unusual, awkward, and downright weird types of anthros--the ones that are either really unpopular for whatever reason, or difficult to transform into a human-like shape.

Next up, I'll be doing bugs. If fish and bird anthros produced some weird creatures, this will be even weirder! Of all the large animal groups, insects probably look least like us, it can be quite a challenge to make one into a good looking anthro. Those brave enough to try, however, have created some very interesting creatures...

Ohwow! Thanks so much! I appreciate it!

And I totally agree about the lack of strange anthros. XD Watch out for my upcoming jellyfish anthro...@.@

yay thankyou!

LOL YYES, two DF bugs wriggled their way in there >: }
:iconskittycat:
Strangely enough, I actually already have a jellyfish anthro: [link]

Granted, she doesn't look much like one. xD But it would be awesome to see more of them. I've only ever seen one person talk about an anthro jellyfish before, and I don't think the character ever actually got made.
:iconskittycat:
I noticed that Delta Force has quite a few unusual and cool anthros, but I thought it would be a little uneven to include too many of them. xD

I really like how you're using such unusual creatures though! It sure beats having canines and dragons.
:iconasyd-rayn:
@.@ HOMG So cool! I love her! /flails and dances I like her stripey-ness...
You got be excited to start on mine nao. lulz

I wish there was an unusual anthros club or something. XD

Thank you so much for including me in your wonderful feature! <3 That bug anthro was really hard for me to do. It's great to see all of these together.
:iconskittycat:
Well, when you get your character finished, show it to me! I'd love to see it. I might even be able to feature it in one of my future "Unusual Furries" articles... I already did fish, but I might do a "misc" for creatures that don't fit in any of the big sections.

An unusual anthro club sounds great! I've actually thought of making one a few times. Maybe I will, if there are more people then just me with interest in it. :0 If I ever do it, you want to be an admin?
:iconsleepdep:
waaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! thank you thank you!!! nomnoms would be pleased to be included in such good company XD
