So what happened was some coworkers were talking about bronies so I decided to chime in. I then asked the other brony defender if he was one and he actually just said "no I'm actually a furry"
I was all O_O

I was all O_O
I would then ask "how do you get on the subject of bronies" but one of the sysadmins at my job is a pretty overt brony so I guess it's not too surprising on the whole.
But sheesh, the furry thing didn't even come up when I wore my ears and tail for Halloween. Figured one of my snarkier coworkers would've said something, instead I got compliments on the tail. o_o
But yeah, after the initial eye bulge, I followed it up with a "really?" then a "really really??"
Then I asked him what kind of furry he was, fursuiter or art enthusiast or whatever, and he said both and that he's worn some suits. That's when I told him I was one but mostly on the art side.

Guess sometimes you could say that there are surprises everywhere. Sometimes you just get unexpected things from the least expected of places.
I wonder when it'll be my turn to say that?

I can say the same thing about learning how many local furs I know are babyfurs after going to RainFurrest. Appearantly the Seattle area has the largest concertration of babyfurs in the fandom.
Mind you I could care less if they are one, since to each their own. But it does throw you for a loop when you hear and see something like that.
I totally would date one of the guys who said something, if he didn't have a girlfriend already.

I almost got into a four-pack of the game with a friend at one point. I'm pretty glad I didn't.
I wasn't as lucky as you and I bought the pack last year. The game is a textbook example of taking early access money and then downsizing development to fart out a "v1.0" then forget about it forever.
The Avians are alright though, sky pirates are always cool.

We shall consider it if you go back to your old avatar; it was way radder.

Pretty awesome artwork of the Five Night's at Freddy's character's done very much in the vein of Don Bluth animation.

Agreed. (Palazzo and I clearly have a thing for pointy ears, though.)

Queso's "brightly coloured animal people" series is amazing, especially the Smash one they did.

I don't know, they're technically great, but I feel like they veer into the uncanny valley. Especially the second one.

Mmm hmm. That's my kinda impression on these busts, too. Something looks off. Very off. I can't point out exactly why, but I suspect it's the art style and the faces being a bit too...normal.

I vote no.
But more seriously:
There is no real consensus on what is or is not furry, so some might argue that Geralt does constitute at least some kind of furry, albeit on a really kind of fringe, outlier line. But visibly and clearly expressed animal traits are kind of a requirement. I think one should be able to at least point and go 'that dude's a wolf', which Geralt doesn't immediately indicate. In fact, if it wasn't for people calling him wolf, and the wolf necklace, you wouldn't really know anything about any kind of wolf element within him.

(I'll admit, I'm probably OK with anything that stops at about...uh...3.5. Any higher in that scale, and things get WEIRD.)

The first and third bust may have a mis-match between the very realistic eyes and the simple, cartoony structure and detail of the heads. The middle bust is least uncanny to me actually, it is a more typical animal-ears-on-normal-human design.

I suppose that mixing realistic and cartoony styles is not a good idea in any media unless it's being deliberately invoked for an effect...
*groan*
I could use some drawing practice from time to time. At least a modelling attempt went OK... working in the 3D space is a bit of a different thing.

GW2 is one of these games I keep hearing about but I never got around to actually buying and playing it. Should I?
