I've drawn a few furries and I was wondering where is a good place to host them? I've seen various places, but I'm not much for all the pop-ups on most of the ones I go to.

Edit: Thanks for the answers, Miss Scorpia, Johnnypsycho. I'll just post my art here now.

Also here are a couple of images that I've done

The one on the Left is my Bon Bon fursona, Niam Maxtor. The one on the right is Tsuki (meaning moon in japanese) and she is a concept character for a story I am writing at the moment.

Update: I have a deviantART now, the links in my signature!

Sorry the Images aren't colored, I'm going to get a wacom pad here soon, (I'm a lefty and regardless I can't draw with a mouse (I even tired an ambidextrous mouse) to save my life Sad

), please let me know what you think!

If you draw non-sexual art then post it on Deviantart.com. Any body can have a gallery there, as long as you follow the rules. You can tjeck my gallery out for inspiration, if you want to. www.elleboe.deviantart.com Vanessa has a gallery there too.
You did a great job on the feline faces! Cool

Thanks! I've done a few others as well, but I haven't traced and scanned them yet. I've also looked at your gallery at harmlesslion but your other won't let me in. I also wanted to try my hand at fanart, and I don't think that they'll be acceptable for devinart (heh heh heh Twisted Evil

) any recomendations?

If the majority of your erotic artwork is furry iand of characters of your own creation, I suggest trying YiffStar.com and setting up an account there.

It's largely a story archive, but they have artwork there as well. I don't really remember seeing any popups there, but maybe that's just me.

thanks, it's not a huge priority, just something I needed to know.

ack! So I setup an account at yiffstar and apparently artwork submitted there has to go through an 'approval process' *sigh* Wassat

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 08 Jul 2006 Posts: 2311

Oh yeah, sorry, I suppose I should have warned you about that. Every artwork and story submitted to YiffStar has a sort of probationary approval period before it gets put on the site. Still, I wouldn't worry about it...

Your art work is very good.

thanks

Fur Affinity is a good place for erotic furry art, too. Not just erotic, mind.

Which graphics tablet are you after? Personally, I use a Wacom Bamboo, but it's only a small one, and very simple. Also, yeah, GIMP is awesome. Best free artware I've found.

My Wacom Bamboo One does indeed work fine with GIMP. As I said, though, it's only small and very simple. Only a few functions.

I believe the Intuos has many functions. The Bamboo, not many. Not sure about the Cintiq. I may be wrong, though.

I've added a couple more pictures to my DA account, trying to draw characters with better balance and proportion as Miss Scorpia recommended. Again thank you for the advice. My DA account can be reached by the link in my signature.

Added another picture to my DA account. I am trying to color one of my previous tracings of Niam with my wacom pad. It's not done yet, but I decided to put it up anyways.
