For everyone who was interested in my Animal/Furry Art Challenge, I've made a community for it now! Spread the word!

animalart100

There have been a lot of various art challenges going around, but I thought it might be a fun idea to start one that may inject some creativity and new interest into the furry/anthro art community. Far too often, we see the community saturated with wolves, foxes, big cats, rabbits, and ocassionally an equine. It's time for some variety! So I thought it would be an interesting challenge to not just push myself personally, but to see if the rest of the community would like to do the same. Therefore, I've created this list of animals that have seen not nearly enough love in the fandom. While some of these may be canines, felines, etc., I tried to pick a few that are relatively unseen in the furry community.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Draw each and every one of the animals on this list. There is no time limit. It doesn't have to be in order, it doesn't even have to be anthro/humanoid. It doesn't even really have to be fully colored, it can be a pencil sketch if you'd prefer. Just give them a try. Not only will you push yourself in the process, you will learn about more of the amazing and exciting animals this world has to offer! Feel free to post this in your journal or webpage to show your progress, share it with friends, or simply use for inspiration. Some of these WILL be difficult, but you can do it! I tried not to make any of these so obscure that they wouldn't have much information or pictures of them. Some of these are also extinct, but all of them have artistic interpretations and pictures of their skeletons available on the internet or in books.

Good luck!

I am in need of commissions! My boyfriend and I are pretty much broke, even though we both have jobs and I go to school full-time. So, to remedy this and hopefully keep the apartment, I am accepting commissions! Please help a kitty out!

Subject matter:
- I am best at drawing animals in their quadruped/feral form, but I'm definitely willing to do anthros and weres, too!
- I will draw ALL ratings, including adult.
- I will NOT draw minors in sexual situations or any hate art (anything that targets a particular person or group).
- I reserve the right to decline subject matter for any reason. I'm usually pretty open, though.

Contact:
inthelostandfoundATgmailDOTcom
Just replace AT with @ and DOT with .

Payment:
- I prefer Paypal, but I also accept U.S. Money Orders. E-mail me for the mailing address.
- Payment is expected upfront before I begin work. However, you may cancel at any time and I will refund you the price minus the cost for the amount of work already done (if you requested a fully shaded/backgrounded piece and decided from the flat coloring that you didn't want it anymore, I would subtract the cost of a flat colored pic and refund you the remainder to pay for work already received).
- I have the right to refuse business with someone for any reason. It's unlikely that I will, of course, I just need to put this in here just in case. ;)
