Fox ideas!
Added 2023-04-29 22:41:30 +0000 UTCFirst a few tidbits of news, the animation is finished and up! Check for it on FA, FN or e621 if you haven't seen it yet.
The painting is on it's way, I just wanna take a day or two off after that animation so it'll be a little late. Stay tuned!
Now, the reason I'm here- I need ideas for a fox-ish character. If you've read the description of my latest animation you might know what's up, if you haven't well that's on you. :P Still, any interesting fox species, or other canid-esque creatures, that aren't represented in my roster yet? I could just randomly search around myself, but this way I get a feel for what y'all might like to see andalsodonthavetodoasmuchwork. Gimme ideas!

What about something like an interdimensional fox, or canid creature that has magical abilities. Like levitation, change objects around her, spawn objects/creatures, maybe 'grow' things ;), hypnosis maybe?

2023-05-01 19:16:23 +0000 UTCI have found that the colors light blue and yellow goes well together or have the were it's one color most of the way then on the tail tip It has two more colors or fades to the lighter version of the color like on my OC

2023-04-30 16:38:46 +0000 UTCIt could be a fun one though

2023-04-30 16:34:54 +0000 UTCYou could make an enfield; a Fox with the forelegs swapped for bird feet. Not a huge departure in firm, but sharp talons combined with an insane grip is an amusing contrast with how soft and fluffy they are elsewhere. Especially the kinds of soft delicate things you usually have your characters handle.

2023-04-30 12:36:51 +0000 UTCOr, to take it in a different direction, there are several dog breeds which would fit Mango's model while remaining visually distinct. Either a doberman or german shepherd would have a comparable head shape, pointed ears, and a distinctive fur pattern. And the breed associations as "tough" guard dog types could lend itself to a more tomboyish character, matching the base body's more athletic form (I think of Mango's running test animation).
2023-04-30 07:33:38 +0000 UTCbat eared foxes are cute! also, any mythical foxes like kitsune, who have multiple tails!

2023-04-30 07:18:54 +0000 UTCThis may not be quite what you're looking for, but perhaps an albino fox/canid? White fur, ruby eyes - always love the way you animate your characters' eyes and the unique pink shade would be visually distinct. White fur would also contrast well with the brighter and more exotic colors of much of the main cast (and be a particularly sharp contrast to Mango, since they'd be sharing a similar body). Plus some colorful accessories or jewelry to "compensate". Or maybe she could be a bit of a neat freak because of the easily stained white fur? There'd be some room there for endearing character quirks that could be communicated easily without sound.

2023-04-30 06:36:55 +0000 UTCThat's a very specific suggestion. :P

2023-04-30 05:55:07 +0000 UTCFoxes can have a ton of unusual markings. Check out some of the real-life foxes on the SaveAFox YouTube channel (a fox rescue organization in Minnesota). https://www.youtube.com/@SaveAFox

2023-04-30 05:39:30 +0000 UTCNot a fox, but an African wild dog would be pretty amazing to see.

2023-04-30 01:46:50 +0000 UTCMaybe a corsac fox?
2023-04-30 01:16:35 +0000 UTCJackals are underrepresented all around
Eddie SanHusky
2023-04-30 01:10:01 +0000 UTCA black backed jackal would be cool!
Flup Volta
2023-04-29 23:52:57 +0000 UTCTo be fair she didn't get a ton of advertisement. I bet she could get some traction if I polished her up to my current standards and used her for some stuff.
Ruaidri
2023-04-29 23:52:49 +0000 UTCnot really an IRL species look but anubian jackals are very cool and underused

2023-04-29 23:43:26 +0000 UTCGrey fox perhaps! They’re expert climbers, which might play into the character a bit, and they have a consistent, and recognizable pelage!

2023-04-29 23:37:55 +0000 UTCOooh, I like both the attached picture and the African Wild Dog idea as well

2023-04-29 23:34:00 +0000 UTCPeople didn't even like the deer. :P
Rechan
2023-04-29 23:29:47 +0000 UTCSo while I like arctic, black-phased silver and grey foxes, I think the nuances would look too close to your existing characters (Sy, etc). So how about something like this? https://www.furaffinity.net/view/42421297/ Or an African Wild Dog, yeah. Altho their pattern is a bit of a tall order. Edit: Oh! What if you did something a little wild. You know, like a tiger-striped fox. (Or maybe cloude leopard/snow leopard/jaguar).
Rechan
2023-04-29 23:28:55 +0000 UTCYou've got a fennec and silver fox already... how about a marble fox? They're gorgeous!
Scotia
2023-04-29 23:28:08 +0000 UTCMy roster is light on those for a reason unfortunately, they're just not my thing I'm afraid. Just personal preference. :P
Ruaidri
2023-04-29 23:15:00 +0000 UTCOhh, well I have found that the colors light blue and yellow goes well together or have the were it's one color most of the way then on the tail tip It has two more colors or fades to the lighter version of the color like on my OC
Jace The Fox
2023-04-29 23:12:47 +0000 UTCI would love to have an andromorph (cuntboy) arctic fox. The character roster would benefit from some intersex characters.

2023-04-29 23:11:15 +0000 UTCDingo or jackal?
Disjachi
2023-04-29 23:03:37 +0000 UTCA pretty good one too! Definitely on my maybe list.

Garwaron
2023-04-29 22:58:25 +0000 UTCHow about a spotted wild dog! That's another idea.
Gin
2023-04-29 22:57:38 +0000 UTCGot two silver foxes already, so I certainly appreciate your desire for more silver foxes! But... I've got two silver foxes already, so probably don't need another just yet. :P
Ruaidri
2023-04-29 22:55:53 +0000 UTCMaybe something exotic like a hyena or a wild dog.??

Garwaron
2023-04-29 22:54:16 +0000 UTCWell an artic fox would be fluffy and would hide those pretty curves. Maybe a petite silver fox to pair with Ash?
Gin
2023-04-29 22:54:04 +0000 UTCI just made one of those! x3

Garwaron
2023-04-29 22:52:25 +0000 UTCMore looking for colour ideas on this one, the body is pretty much set. Maybe some day though! :P
Ruaidri
2023-04-29 22:52:23 +0000 UTCMaybe a fox with two or more tails
Jace The Fox
2023-04-29 22:51:34 +0000 UTCMore seriously I love the idea of an arctic fox like @BreezyBreeze said :3
