I needed a reference sheet for a fursuit, and none of my existing ref sheets really fit the requirements, so I decided to make my own.
Out of internet clipart.
I cannot stop laughing at this, the face especially just looks so out of place. May it bring you joy also!
And a question for the actual artists out there: if someone gave this to you as a character ref, would you consider it usable? Once you stopped laughing, of course.
@notthatdelta As someone who approximates being an artist, I think that's fine for a reference.
If you want a specific face/muzzle or body shape - e.g. do you care about plantigrade versus digitigrade paws, or number of fingers or toes? - then you'll want to include more notes. And I don't think you've shown pawpads or mouth.
But this does show most color zones.
@digitalfox Good points! I had planned on elaborating on the head shape in particular (I have a weird shaped head, and wanted to make sure the maker could accommodate that). Same for the paws, it's hard to see the detail here but the tips of the digits should be a darker shade than the rest.
If I do use this (still up in the air), I'd be sure to include additional detail in writing!
