What is a Furry?

A furry is an anthropomorphic being – an animal with human characteristics. Furries has fascinated artists going back thousands of years, and as seen in the influx of animal/human characters into popular culture, interest today is at an all-time high. Hugely popular in contemporary media, furries appear in fantasy art, comics, webcomics, gaming platforms, TV, movies, and are the stuff of myth and magic. Now, for the first time all in one volume, you’ll be able to take the next step to the outer limits of your imagination with the ultimate guide to drawing your own furries in DRAWING FANTASTIC FURRIES: The Ultimate Guide to Drawing Anthropomorphic Characters (Watson-Guptill; On Sale: March 15, 2011) by Christopher Hart.

In his book, Hart introduces his readers to the basic concepts of creating half-man/half-beast characters, and to the variety of styles in which they are drawn. After a basic lesson in the fundamentals of comparative human animal anatomies, you’ll learn how to draw an entire menagerie of furry species, ranging from the adorable and charming super-cute furries to the seductive and super-popular glamorous furries to the warriors, wizards, vampires, and demons of the furry occult and fantasy realms.
