Hewge Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) My least favourite personas are ones that just copy a TV show, or something. Such as Ponies, Gemsonas, etc.I don't see the appeal in what is essentially just copying somebody else's art style and creations, then calling it your own.wtf is it with furfags and rainbows, not even gays like them this much.I don't know.

Red Lion Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 For me it's definitely fursonas that show a lack of imagination or feel kind of lazy and shallow. Like if someone's fursona is just another wolf or wolf-like dog that happens to be blue or pink or something. Yes yes, I know, you're spirit animal is a mighty wolf and wolves r kewl and majestic. If you're not doing anything more than putting a wolf head on a human body, making it a primary color and calling it a day then no your fursona is not good. It's boring and looking boring is even worse than being outright bad IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troj Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I cringe when someone's fursona concept seems driven more from a desire to be popufur, special, or cool than from a desire to create an authentic personal character.Dutch angel dragons are neat, for example, but I feel like too many people have an angel-sona because they want some of Telephone's charisma or popularity, or want to become Telephone's new best friend.Bright colours or novel hybrids can be cool, but not when it feels like someone threw everything and the kitchen sink into a blender in an attempt to be the specialest furry ever.I get why little kids do this, because when I was a kid, of course I made ridiculously overpowered Mary Sue characters, too.You'll also see some rather routine, cliched, and middle-of-the-road designs in cases where it seems like the person just isn't very creative, or hasn't had a lot of exposure to things that could actually fuel their creativity.But, I actually have a lot of respect for the characters whose uniqueness comes from their personality and from subtle visual touches, and not from the fact that they look like they fell into a vat of radioactive waste at a rave. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onnes Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I think a lot of problem with fursonas comes from most of them being solely visual and being used as standins for someone's own identity. If all you've got to work with are looks to create an identity, then you're probably going to feel some pressure to make those looks "unique" and personalized. And before you know it you've got an otherworldly mess of colors, piercings, and symbols. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azu Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 There are two tropes that I'd consider 'bad design'1) Excessive, clashing colors e.g. 'rave' furs2) Bland, uninspired, common designs. E.g. Plain foxes. Lots of themThat's about it. If your character doesn't fit in either of those categories, it's probably cool with me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres a user called "Rephirir" and I actually like their fursona design And foxes are so dang plain that if you dont put a spin on em they all look the dang same x3 or if you avoid natural fox patterns/tropes it ends up looking like any kind of canid and not a fox. In fact, canids designed far from their natural form bug me, theres that. Edited December 8, 2015 by WolfNightV4X1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pheonixbat Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Maybe people have badly made fursonas because they already invested so much into theirs that it would be a waste to change to something else. Also it's just plain tricky to get a good color scheme/species going! It can take years to find a match! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troj Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Agreed. It's fine and dandy to have fetishes, but making your fursona--your alter ego--revolve entirely around your fetish screams "Doesn't get out enough." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDingo Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 They're all around us. All the time. We could all find some examples at any given time by just staring at the front pages of Weasyl and FA. And how about it?

willow Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 man, give me all the generic foxes and wolves in the world and I'll probably find them more interesting than hybrids that are 50 different species in one because the creator wants to be "different". not to be confused with original species though. shapeshifting fursonas are also kinda meh because to me they scream "I'm indecisive" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDingo Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I don't know how unpopular this opinion might be, but I don't like it when people make their sonas really military.
