Hybrids.. Hybrids everywhere...
So, since "joining" the fandom some 7-8 years ago, I've recently noticed that foxes, huskies, wolves, lions, tigers, squirrels, wombats and red pandas are all on a decline (in as much as that's thinkable), giving way to all manner of strange hybrids. Most "new" furries I run into these days are some kinda wolf/dragon/squid/mosquito hybrid, who is also a vampire, has bioluminescent fur, and whose farts smell like strawberries.
Why is this? I'm genuinely curious as to why the furry fandom seems to have gotten so bored with real animal species, in all the majestic beauty, and feels the need to make all sorts of thinkable and unthinkable blends, in an effort to be more unique.
[EDIT:] I just want to point out that I'm not baw-haw'ing and saying people shouldn't hybridize their fursonas. By all means. I've just noticed what seems to be an increase, and am naturally curious about it. Personally, I prefer "natural" furries. Non-hybrids, in natural colours, with realistic patterns, that just happen to be anthropomorphic. I feel hybrids work best within the same familae, i.e. tiger-lion, wolf-fox, and such. But that's just - like - my opinion, man..

What would you pay for a custom yarn tail? [LONG READ AHEAD]
In addition to drawing commissions I wanted to sell various crafts when I got the funds. By a stroke of luck I was given some cash yesterday and I plan on buying some yarn. I'll only have enough for one tail though. So if you do want one, think up some colors [three max.] and dimensions.
Also consider that
you have to be comfortable giving me your address so I can mail it to you
the bigger the tail, the longer it will take
complicated patterns might not be achieved; I'm still fairly new to this craft and the only patterns I've done were stripes
I'm not sure when I'll have enough money to make a second tail but if all goes well with the first one it'll hopefully be soon after. Also remember, my commissions are only a dollar. If you know someone who wants art of their fursona or want one yourself, just PM me the details.
As far as pricing for the yarn tails, that's up to you. The base price will be however much the supplies cost+shipping to you from NY. I'm not sure about sending things internationally yet so please, US residents for the time being.
Now comes the main question: What would you pay for a yarn tail?
I ask because I've never sold one and would like to know how much you guys think is appropriate charge. Each bundle of yarn at my local craft store cost's about $4 after tax. After the base price I add the shipping which if I remember correctly can be calculated from the UPS website. Here's were it get's tricky. I can't make the tail and THEN decide how much it's worth. If the customer can't afford it then I wasted everyone's time. So to avoid potential disaster I need to know how much you think the design you're after is worth, keeping in mind the complexity of the pattern, the amount of yarn needed, and how much time it will take to make.
The only example I can make for dimensions is as follows:
- 2/3 of one yarn bundle
- 12 hours to make
So finally, PM me your design and dimensions for the tail and how much you would pay for it. Sorry for the hella long post.
Here's a kitten to make up for it.

FURTHER CONFUSION....
Sooo I'm going to further confusion this weekend. I don't know many furries online sadly. If anyone sees me there please come say hi! I won't bite much :3
I'll be wearing a fabulous rainbow jacket.... And I'm the short nerdy blonde girl.
I'm straight and FABULOOOUUUSSS !! Thought it was an appropriate time for my jacket.
Btw, did anyone know hempcon is right before furcon at the same place? So weird..:3

I have a question.
Would you rather live in a Furry world as a Human?
or
Live in the Human world as a Furry?
Let it be known after you make your choice it is set in stone so no going back!
Also you are able to change your sex. So if you are male you could be a female furry in the human world or be a female human in the furry world. And Vice Versa.

I made some new parts for my animatronic ears
Gore in the fandom?
I'm a female furry that has a gore fetish, I've been trying to look for good gore in the fandom but I can't find it. Any sites to recommend? And no I don't mean like the dragons burning other animals gore, I mean like bloody torture gore.

Furfunding Week in Review 1-13-14
This week’s illustration is from the kickstarter for Nature Hater by Adam Comiskey.
Wow, three weeks between posts? I’d say “mea culpa,” but there just weren’t that many major projects. Let the minor projects wash over you like a mighty flood.
In other news, the busy dogs at Furstarter are trying to solve the problem of “how to display Patreon “sustained crowdfunding” projects in a way that’s interesting and fair?” Draft One’s here…but we’re looking for a better answer.
And a little thank you to Julian Bynoe, who gave me a surprise walk-on part for Christmas :) What a nice little treat!
This week’s reviews: Rick Griffin’s Patreon campaign for Housepets and other projects, and the wolfy walfy underground anthology comic, “Wolfen Jump.”
