Meanwhile, merging other parts, in a way where it can be recognized as both, requires drawing something that has no equivalent in nature.(07-06-2016, 07:39 AM)SilverOtter Wrote: That makes sense.

...Well now that you point it out that is noticable.
It's weird. I guess it's since I'm by no definition an artist, but I find it odd that a lot of artists have trouble adapting between furry and... uh... humanish? art, no matter which of the two they mostly do. I can understand it being difficult at first, but a lot seem to stay completely focused on one or the other.
I have no idea what the actual, defined types of human-animal hybrids are (and I think that's because furries are still in a war with mainstream artists over that), but if I would hazard a guess, I would say that Reks' request falls under "monstergirl".
