I've definitely enjoyed playing around with my feminine/female fox girl fursona Suzie, who has rapidly become a fave OC. It was fun to start off with the premise of how i'd like to present myself as a furry... It turns out that I ideate myself as a big, soft woman full of nurturing energy but a rock/goth gritty aesthetic to give her some gumption and strength (and match my clothing and music tastes). Strong feminine traits, fiercely loving but also sexually open are some things I'd like to have more of. It's been really fun to explore it and let it evolve. I never felt the need to have a fursona until I realised this is kinda where my heart lay, so it's now evolving with a reflection of my own personality, furry silliness, a community aspect where people are conjuring up scenarios and stories that are beyond flattering and satisfying to read. She might evolve independently into something more individual, but at the very least she's a bit of an avatar for this account and my fat furry art in general. I think she's slowly becoming more of a softie, but the party girl is still in there... a bit of a reflection of my own age.

Increasingly, because of the obscurity of her original anime source, Ryoko and her furry/TF'd offshoots are sort of OCs, hopefully not too close to Sonic recolours on DA circa 2007. People just assume she's mine when really it's just because I love putting teal spiky hair on things and going "oooh look what you've turned into" and anybody under 30 has never heard of Tenchi. It's pure theft. I've answered a few Qs already as to why it never gets old for me. I guess it's the same reason some artists love to draw Rouge. Timeless baddie girls are peak.

Occasionally you hit a rich seam of inspiration and the rhinoko and generally affinity with drawing beast-like rhino girls has been very fun, and it turns out a little underutilised in furry art. Work your niche! She's definitely grown into multiple "alts" where she's either more cuddly and anthro versus becoming an extremely transformed brute or animal hybrid. Huge personality contrasts and characterisation there. As always, when I get positive feedback for something and people start to suggest stuff based on OCs or unique designs I get a big boost and more stuff begins to spill out my kinky brain. It also guides their development and I've reworked things because I know it gets people off haha! I never know where things will take me and this one has definitely stood the test of time from a fickle artist's brain.

Altogether, there are more OCs that I am desperate to let evolve by drawing them more, adding some fluff or backstory. The Scottish cow girls + Yumi (old OC who has a Ludmilla-like TF into a big purple dragoness xenos) melded into a single universe of mythos vs xenos BBW that I can flesh out (in multiple ways) is a goal. I imagine the good "local" mythos fighting back against a draconic and malevolent xenos incursion with lots of heavy girls plotting against each other would be mildly popular, and allow for some stronger characterisations, incrementally better designs and personality development. It's kinda cool how much hotter a character becomes when you see them go through range of feelings and experiences. It certainly makes them more real.
