Then be a creepy rat-tentacle monster hybrid thing?

Also...uber fun question time!

  • Do you prefer plantigrade or digitigrade?
  • Pads or no pads on paws?
  • Shoes or no shoes?
  • What is your preferred way of depicting the wings and arms of an avian anthro?

MY ANSWERS: Plantigrade, pads, no shoes, wing arms where feathers function as fingers (ex. Donald Duck, Falco Lombardi)

  • I don't care of the feet types. But I prefer the walking on two legs ones over four legged ones. (Four legged are called "ferals" in some circles, I hear.)

  • Hm, I'm cool with both pads and smooth hands&feet, really...

  • Shoes don't matter much. Except if theyre required protection.

  • Uhhh... I admit I have not paid much mind to avians. Feathers as fingers is more toony, but maybe a arms/wings combo with the feather spreading between the arms and armpits/side of chest is more "realistic" and of course they fold closed. Kinda like a bats? Probobly no preferance on this one either...

Wow, I'm not nearly as picky as I thought. I guess everything goes unless it squicks me out.

*shrug* If it's just a character, I like things that are neat. I like things that are not disturbing. Doesn't matter if it's in any fandom or none.

You have a wisdom that belies your years, Aon. I am humbled in your presence!

As to the questions:

Bipedal, though I'm not sure if that's what you're asking.

Pads on feet. No pads on hands. There are exceptions, of course... just depends on how well it's done.

I'm fine with or without shoes.

I think if anything I would prefer more claw-like hands over feather hands, but again it would probably depend on the picture as a whole. Feathered arms is fine, but I also don't mind if the wings just become a separate pair of limbs from the arms.

It's more about whether or not the creature walks on its toes.

Answers!

  • Either or, depending. Digi-grade looks weird with shoes, for instance. To me, anyway.. I usually prefer planar, but it doesn't really matter as long as it makes sense, really.
  • Pads, same way. If it fits with the overall design of the character, I'm fine with it. I like hands with no pads, though, 'cause pads'd feel rough.
  • Shoes are the same way. If it's a planar walker, I'd expect shoes. Possibly because I tend more towards human anyway, but...
  • Wingarms, I honestly prefer a character with actual arms, with feathers on them. Think like the one chicken that was on the Tom & Jerry shows. Foghorn Leghorn, I think. Though that might be because they usually have wings on their back, then.

I've got the same answers as Aondeug. Especially when it comes to paw pads.

I used to get that a lot. Especially when art of my character appeared and people were reminded.

I'll just be over here.

There is no bushy tail. It is not twitching nervously.

Kangaroo. I forgot those. Like those too. Upon further reaserch: Pandas, kangaroos, koala bears, and mice-like rodents don't seem to be covered by my earlier covering of what I like.

So, yeah.

Oh don't worry, you're a troper and not a fictional character like Trope-tan. I'd find it awkward to glomp you Goggle. Even though it's only text online... Yeah I got a weird mind, don't we all?

And "Tail Dandy?" Geez, couldn't think of anything fruitier, could you?
