Hey there!
« on: July 23, 2014, 06:06:34 AM »
Hello all, my name is WingBat. I am new to the furry family. It is something I have been  interested in for awhile but the people I know look down upon it or find it weird for some reason. I would love to meet some people who will accept this side of me. A little more about myself, I am 24 year old female. A gamer. WoW is my poison I play as a Worgen DK, and Druid. I love to draw and I have been known to dabble in 3D Animation. I am also getting ready to make my very first fursuit which I am very excited about. Anyway thank you all for reading and I look forward to being apart of this community.  :D

Welcome, new fur!  ^_^


What kind of stuff do you draw? What kind base do you plan to use for your fursuit head?



There are a lot of really friendly furs in communities like this so you should make friends really quickly. I love making new friends so feel free to message me. L=

Jack, you know it really depends on my mood honestly. I do Surreal just as much. The only thing though with my surreal works is im not very strong at human like body figures. I have a lot of practice to do lol. Ill get there one day though. :p


Saphira, thank you for taking the time to do that. I am going to read it, I could use all the tricks and tips I can get. :)

Welcome, friend. I am Sytex, your ever friendly moderator. I do hope you enjoy your stay, because we're quite the friendly bunch!

I am impressed by that drawing, the use of color draws your eyes to the Rottweiler.

As for the fursuit, good luck on it and you should soooo share it when you finish.

You're absolutely welcome. Aside from WoW, what other games do you play?

Right now I am playing Day Z. That's taking up most of my time. I have my person so heavily geared it's going to suck if someone kills me lol. I have also been playing Wild Star and Titanfall. Im not one to get into FPS but Titanfall is pretty amazing! What do you play?

Nice. I just recently stopped playing Rust, but my friend keeps bugging me to get Arma. I don't have a lot of friends who play serious survival games, and I just get way too pissed when I get screwed over in those games. Something about being set back to square one is super frustrating for me. So I do play those, but I just don't consider them my tops.

Anyway, for my primary games, I tend to gravitate to RPG's, action/adventure games, fighting and racing games with a sprinkle of sandboxes and FPS. My top five games/series', in order, are: Pokemon, War Thunder, Super Smash Bros, Grand Theft Auto and The Elder Scrolls.

I know what you mean. I like RPG's more then any other game type too. Im starting to play a lot of the classic games like the Mario RPG, Final Fantasy and the first Zelda for NES. My favorite RPG series though besides Skyrim would have to be Fable. I adore that game.

I've never actually played Fable. I probably should, considering that my friend James and his mother adore the series as well. I also haven't played Final Fantasy, which is odd. But considering my gaming library was limited by what people bought me over the years, I guess it's no surprise. Fallout 3 and New Vegas were my go-to, which was soon usurped by Skyrim because of Argonians and Paarthurnax. Do you play them on PC or Console, more so?

Im a PC gamer. More console though as of lately. I need to get a new computer that can handle my gaming or fix my old one. Its a simple fix but its 5 years old. I kind of just want to get a new one. Oh and console of choice... XBox =P yes, even after all the bad press with the XBox One. I will forever be an XBox fangirl. lol.
