the cast

toby/tobias

[reference] | they/he/it | melanistic red fox | af#4128348 | [toyhouse]

description

toby/tobias is a black fox with a white chest and white tail-tip. his eyes are usually a warm green or off-yellow, but can also be artistically colored white. he occasionally wears a collar. sometimes he has whiskers and/or a nose. he is sometimes drawn with a long black hairtuft/bangs covering the right side of his face.

favorite things

plants, bugs, alone time ("me time!"), listening to ambient synth/jazz fusion/other relaxed or melancholy or experimental music, the color green (but especially a yellow-green that's almost mustard), rural woodland.

art prompts/ideas

listening to music with headphones, banging out the tunes, wandering the woods or fields, watching clouds pass over, following paths in the forest, maybe something with a photo-collage background/similar collage elements using personal photos you're nostalgic for. experimental introspective pieces are also very welcome.

miscellaneous

he tends to be drawn with indistinct features (undefined nose, paws, etc), but he does have a nose and paws and the like. you can colorpick from his eyes for whatever you want to color his paws or mouth. please don't draw him anthro (close friends can though).

forest ("swifty")

[reference (main)] | [reference (cat)] | | they/it/he/she | cat or zigzagoon | af#53027 | [toyhouse]

description

forest (cat form) is an energetic white-and-ginger cat-thing with brown stripes. the left side of his face is covered with a ginger tabby patch and his tail is striped tabby too. the rest of them is all white. they have vivid lime-green eyes and pink pawpads, nose, mouth, and inner ear (right; the left inner ear is white stylistically).

forest (zigzagoon form) is a shiny zigzagoon with white and orange coloration and bright lime green eyes. his left ear is orange, but the other is not. its mask is also orange. it has bright lime green claws that can retract. he occasionally wears a bandana.

favorite things

virtual pets, netscape navigator, pokemon (wingull! togekiss! azumarill! clodsire!), drawing, wolfquest, getting into mischief, retro furry art (especially from the early 2000s)

art prompts/ideas

exploring the internet, classic meme redraws (nyancat, shocked gopher, etc), emulating popular art styles circa 2000s-2010s, doing noneuclidean pinkie-pie type acrobatics or antics, or dancing to energetic music

miscellaneous

when it's in cat form, it is not a 'full furry' in the sense that it's pretty small and animal-like still. kind of like one of those magical girl mascot types. you know...

its zigzagoon form borrows elements from normal, galarian, and beta zigzagoon.

taqui

[reference] | it/he/they | furry computer virus | af#2177211 | [toyhouse]

description

taqui is a vibrant-colored anthro-form computer program. he is mostly black with bright yellow, red, and blue accents. he has long bunnylike ears tipped with yellow tufts. his tail is long and ends with three stripes (blue, red, yellow) and a yellow spiky tuft at the end.

favorite things

sending email, exploring the virtual landscape, 3d artwork and scenery, early computer design, BBS terminals, windows '98, dialup modems, audio visualizers

art prompts/ideas

scenery generated in an old 3d art program like bryce3d (or made to look like that), generic geocities-like tiled background images (especially stuff like water, stars, trees, etc), anything that plays with the division of real and virtual (like stepping out of the computer screen!), geometric shapes / forcing him into geometric angles and shapes, playing with stylized lineless

miscellaneous

he does not have a defined nose, but he can be drawn with whiskers (free-floating or attached). the whiskers just have to be one of the colors already on him - red, blue, yellow. the mark on his chest is any sort of star/burst type shape, but doesnt have to be exactly star-shaped (or even have five points exactly). you can be creative with it!
