    If this method doesn't work for you some other alternatives are:
    - Doing everything traditionally on paper (I recommend making a digital colour pallete still!!)
    - Printing out the reference sheet lines and colouring them physically
    - Commissioning an artist with a thorough description of your character (not all artists will work from just descriptions though)
    - Buying a character from someone
    - Using a "fursona maker" app
    - Asking a close friend whom is an artist very very very very nicely for some help
    - Request an artist whom has publicly stated they are open for request

      Just saying, as an artist, working with printed out and colored references is totally fine! As long as there is SOMETHING to help the artist visualize your character in your eyes!

    You know, when I first heard the term "fursona", as a weeb, I instantly related it to "persona" which, is an AWESOME game, but, when I heard fursona, my brain just grabbed these both and thought
    " Holy sh*t, werewolves are fursona users"
    And, my mind, broke all that down, and it turned into a werewolf dating Sim with some battle in mind.
    I can't believe how far I was at the start, and how close and accurate it was at the end...

    I don't have a job yet, because I'm kind of young, oof, so I don't have enough money for a cool fancy drawing tablet that hooks to my computer, but I use my phone to draw. I have a really good program called Autodesk Sketchbook, and I just take a picture of my sketch, and draw over it with my finger in the program. It might take a while to get used to, because you have to try and avoid shaky lines, although there are tools that help balance them out into neat, smooth lines. I thought that this might be helpful to those who don't have a computer or drawing tablet.

    Some things I’d like to add, medibang and firealpaca are great programs to use on the computer! (Or medibang on a phone) I also recommend using large canvases (like 3000*3000) with a dpi of 300. Larger canvases will have better resolution!

    I gave up on attempting to make a character around 3 years ago due to my lack of drawingskills but this video explained it so well that i think i could actually create my own character i've had stuck in my head in lines, colours and fluff. (owo)
    Thank you so much and i'll keep watching all your vids since i never comment on them but been watching since just before you started your bottle episodes.

    I actually (read: sadly) use a mouse for my art and boy howdy it's a bit difficult. Luckily, tools like the undo button, stabilizers on pens, the smudge tool and transformer tools exist. Though I'm pretty proud of my art rn, it's still clear what the limitations are. Things like line thickness variation, painting-style coloring or shading, and identical shapes (without copy+pasting) are extremely hard to pull off
    P.S. don't look at my TH-cam to see what my art looks like that's old stuff. All my current stuff is on my instagram

    I have been in the fandom for 289 days, and I have had so much trouble finding my fursona. I have made 100+ oc's and ugh it's just to much! Recently I came across the manokits and just fell in love! See, I have been drawing sence I could hold a pencil, and I cant explain how much stress I had trying to draw a manokit! I honestly still cant draw one, and am afraid to go on Google to look for inspiration because I will feel less proud of myself if I do go on Google. I already have a name for her, and a fur pattern, but I just can't draw her! I just hope I wont call her my fursona, get bored with her ina few days, and forget about her. I have always done that. With every single OC I have made. That's why I cant find my fursona 😪 sorry for wasting your time on my rambling about my stress.

    this just helped me make my fursona yay. im new in all things fur and since i had a tiny bit of skill from drawing a few years back from hand it wasnt too hard to use the tools to edit the reference and even draw things from scratch like her accessories. I love how it turned out! hopefully soon i can get a badge commission with my reference sheet. ill be making my suit myself cuz im an overachiever and im going all in lol wish me luck

    One day I was bored and decided to draw fursona. So I drew it in a corner of notebook, took picture of it and then traced lines in Autodesk SketchBook app (in another layer, like you showed). I knew it was not good but I was proud of myself because I don't know how to draw nor ever tried drawing anything similar. Btw, I never watched any tutorial before and was trying to be completely original. Hope you understood everything

    My style of art takes HOURS to draw stuff because I’m not good at holding a mental picture cus of ADHD, but i kinda think what i do is a respectable way of getting help. It’s looking at shapes of the things i want to draw tracing them, then changing them after getting the basic idea down. It works most of the time and isn’t stolen because stealing is copying the exact thing and drawing over it . Mine is getting the basic shape down, editing it, then drawing over it.
