Interesting furry art

[Millenniumfalsehood]

Granted most of it isn't furry-related, but there are some interesting gems in there. It's worth a look:

This is hardly furry...

Uh, I did say most weren't. Look around a bit, there are some there. I can't link to them either, because it's all in-browser.

It's not furry but I am inspired.

On the contrary there are a few anthro drawings in the illustration segment featuring mice characters.

Doesn't do anything for me personally!

Maybe I just have a misconception.

Furries- animals with human features.

Does that include Bugs Bunny?

Everyone has their own definition for what a furry is. Mine is a person interested in things that deal with the furry fandom through a furry perspective.

Examples:

A furry is a person who recognizes an anthropomorphic animal as appealing and cool.

However, a child who watches Looney Toons and other shows with anthropomorphic animals in them is not a furry.

Hard to explain really.

Bugs bunny?
Fur? Check.
Anthropomorphic? Check.
So.... Bugs Bunny would technically be furry art. It surely doesn't make everyone that watches the cartoons furry though. And it does not necessarily mean the artist is a furry either. So I guess you could say Bugs Bunny is "Unintentionally furry art" because it was made without the furry fandom in mind as far as I know. "unintentional furry art" isn't really a great term, but that's my explanation anyway. It's technically furry by definition, but it wasn't really made for furries.

YES!!
Anthropomorphism is the attribution of uniquely human characteristics to non-human creatures and beings,

IE. THe talking.

Nice artwork, but the farthest thing from "furry" that I have ever seen.

Also, a few people are missing the point that you don't have to be furry to draw them. Okay, so my example who springs to mind at first is such a furry in denial, but I know plenty of artists who draw furry and related stuff, but are not furry themselves.

Plus, ever heard of commissions?

My point of view is that they used anthropomorphism because it was more child friendly.

if its art, i like it!

I guess I was just using my sterile, dictionary definition of an anthropomorphic furry, which is people with animal features, when I posted that.

Wow...that artist is AWSOME! Cool post, regardless of whether it is furry or not.

Oh, by the way...I think there needs to be a distinction between furry and anthromorphic.

I believe--correct me if I am wrong--that "furry" refers to the community which associates its self with anthromorphic characters. Whereas, "anthromorphic" refers to an artistic representation of an animal in human form (and does not refer to, though it implies, the furry community).
