Primitive Shapes come to Furry-VNE!

Hey everyone, this is Blacky!

For the upcoming release, we’ve decided to make a really solid suggestion come true - introducing a loadout of six relatively low-poly primitive shapes!

You’ll be able to play around with the Cone, Cube, Cylinder, Sphere, Torus, and Tube.

These shapes are fully paintable using all in-app methods, including radial and linear gradients, decals, and filters - just like the rest of the meshes already available.

Naturally, you can also take them into external texturing programs to apply materials like concrete or metal, as demonstrated here.

All shapes are watertight, so you can turn them into interactable environment pieces simply by checking the “Generate Collider” box in the character creator. They scale from the default 1 m / 3.3 ft to a minimum of 0.1 m / 0.33 ft and a maximum of 2 m / 6.6 ft.

We hope you’ll enjoy experimenting with these, and we can’t wait to see what creative things you will build with them!

Have a great week, and see you soon!

New Character - Stacy Miles!

Hey everyone, Blacky here!

If you're a cat owner, you might be familiar with this: Some cats are super friendly—you can do just about anything with them, and they'll always be cuddly and nice to you. And then there are the really nasty ones, seemingly just waiting for an opportunity to scratch and bite you.

Well, you might have already guessed it—Bonnie's sister, Stacy, is one of the latter. Our upcoming diva is as mean as they come, and when it comes to relationships, she’s definitely the one wearing the pants. Quite literally. She'll be the perfect choice of character if you look for some dominant female who keeps the boys at bay.

Since the next release will focus on more slender body shapes, Kelly features the standard slender body type, while Stacy relies more on custom offsets to stand out. I also plan to give her a boyfriend—fingers crossed he makes it in before the next release drops in late April!

I hope you like our evil kitty! Let me know what you think of her, and as always, stay tuned for more!

Have a great time, and see you soon!"

New Character - Kelly Blake!

Hey everyone, Blacky here!

Since Dogson already gave you a little sneak peek of the new body shape, I’m very happy to present the upcoming addition to our roster featuring the slender body type: Kelly!

She is a rather delicate soul with a naturally calm, reserved demeanor - a trait that surely comes from the fact that she is a lynx. Once shy and content to stay in the background, she has recently discovered a vibrant spark within herself - all thanks to her caring partner, Bonnie, the cat with the infectious positive energy you all showered with love in the last update!

The two will form our first official female couple, and while there is still some work to do on Kelly, I’m really happy with how she turned out.

I hope you enjoy her just as much as Bonnie! Let me know in the comments what you think of our Lynx Lady.

Have a wonderful week and stay tuned for more content coming very soon.

All the best!

New Body Type WIP - "Slender"

Mesh is work in progress - mesh is still subject to change 

Hey everyone!

New body type under way; female slender, a body type more on the lithe side of the spectrum, after a long while of doing body types on the more...bodacious or powerful.. side. 😅

I was unsure what to call it for quite a while but I think the term "slender" works well.Did a test with them having even longer legs but I think that's probably best for users to later on decide for themselves with either custom offset or bone scaling.

All the best.
- Dogson.

New Character - Bonnie Miles!

Hey everyone, Blacky here!

In my last post, I mentioned that I had something in mind for creating our very first official cat character - and now, she has finally taken shape!

So, let me introduce you to our Bonnie!

She’s a sweet and playful domestic cat with a warm and friendly personality, always up for some fun.

But don’t push your luck - even the kindest cat has claws when things get a little too much!

Bonnie also takes great pride in her hair, dedicating hours to her daily grooming routine to keep it flawless like this - so handle with care!

I’m currently putting the finishing touches on her, so there’s a chance a few details might change—but nothing major.

I hope you enjoy her and let me know what you think of her in the comments below.

Have a great time and till very soon,

-Blacky

Template Showcase - Cat & Shark couple?

Hey everyone, Blacky here and I have some more templates for you to check out!

We’re going back to basics, and one of the classic missing species is, of course, a proper domestic cat template—so I figured it was about time to take care of that for the next release!

In addition, after reviewing some older templates, I realized that the shark template hasn’t aged too well, so I gave her a fresh update. And that got my storyteller mind working again…

I’ve started planning OC characters based on the two, along with a bit of a plot. So maybe we’ll have a female couple coming up soon! It’s not fully set in stone just yet, but we’ll see where it goes.

Let me know in the comments what you think about that idea, and have a wonderful week, everyone!

Xandra Galefist

I'm certainly excited to introduce our next upcoming character, featuring the new Scalie 2 head as a base.

So, here is Xandra!

She’s a hands-on kind of woman. Strong-willed, fiercely independent, and always ready to take charge. But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t know how to have a good time!

Just know that, whatever the situation, she’s most likely to come out on top.

We hope you’ll enjoy her, and we’re looking forward to seeing who will try to tame this force of nature in the future.

She will stand ready for the next release!

That being said, have a wonderful weekend and all the best!

-Blacky

Scalie 2 Head First Look & New Character WIP

With the new Scalie2 Head just around the corner, we’re at a point where we feel confident showing it off a little.

So, here’s a first glimpse at both the upcoming Scalie2 template as well as the next official character —because, who would have thought?— the new head is perfect for custom offsets, allowing us to turn it into a dragon in no time!

This new head features a three-bone neck, for proper posing and it's now the bridge between the regular heads and the snake/giraffe ones.

I also delved deeper into the matter of Substance Painter, so our new -still nameless- dragon lady will be the first character with full painted PBR textures, I'm quite excited about that actually.

We all hope you like the new head and what possibilities come with it, we can't wait to see what you'll create with it once it launches with the upcoming build, till then, have a great time!

-Blacky

The Future of Templates

Hey everyone, Blacky here again—this time with some updates on the template project as a whole!

In the upcoming build, we’re bringing back all the old templates in a separate "Legacy" folder, which you’ll be able to access within the template section (as shown in the screenshot). Meanwhile, all the reworked and updated templates will remain in the regular template section, just as you’re used to.

My ultimate goal is to streamline all templates so that no matter which one you load, the structure inside the Masks section stays consistent. That means we will always have a folder for all premade masks and, depending on the template, additional folders for lighter and darker coloration as well as an overall more organized system with every Layer properly named and so on.

Some of the older templates—like the eagle or crocodile—are already a solid base, so I won’t be making drastic changes to their style. Instead, they’ll get a bit of polishing, structural optimization, and physics presets for tails and ears to save you time on setup.

However, some templates haven’t aged as well, so I’ll be introducing new ones over time—just like I have in the past. Speaking of which, here’s a little tease of the brand-new fennec fox template!

I also know that some species are missing entirely or only have gray bases with minimal features, so my plan is to provide at least one high-quality male and female template for every head we have available.

Hope you enjoy the news—have a great weekend!

-Blacky

Hare Template Showcase

Hey everyone, Blacky here!

I’m back on track with more templates, and I realized one very common species has been missing all this time—so I went back to basics and got some hares ready for you!

Unlike their fluffier cousins, hares are rather built for speed and endurance in real life, so I went with our athletic body types to capture that distinct look. I hope you enjoy these two and put them to good use in your future creations!

Have a nice week and stay tuned for more!

Shen Long - The Muse of the East

He is a man of stark contrasts.

As a golden Eastern dragon, his very presence commands respect—his words are carefully measured, and his gaze is always calculated. As a businessman, one thing is certain: Shen Long thrives on control.

But that’s only the surface. When the suit comes off, so does the mask.

Gone is the monochrome elegance, replaced by the vibrant hues of his countless dresses, each more dazzling than the last. He doesn’t just let go—he transforms, embracing a flamboyant force of self-expression.

Shen Long originally belongs to dogson and after a short talk we decided to make him come to live for you all!

We hope you like our bird of paradise, Shen will be available on the next release!

All the best,

-Blacky

Character Creation Tutorial featuring Clementine - in development!

So, you’re probably wondering why it’s been a little quieter on the character creation front—well, the project revolving around this fair lady was the reason!

Fiasco and I are thrilled to announce we are working on an exciting new tutorial series, designed to help you master the character creator.

Instead of overwhelming you with loads of information all at once, we decided to take a more hands-on approach and we will take you along the creation process of Clementine, our next upcoming character!

What to Expect:

The tutorial series will be released in two segments, each featuring 4–5 videos packed with general guidance, tips and tricks.

Segment 1:

Perfect for beginners, the first segment covers all the essential tools and pre-installed features of the character creator to get started. You’ll learn how to work with body types, sliders, and adjustables; add features like tails, ears, and other parts; and use the Layer and Mask system to create custom color patterns for your character and everything connected to it.

Segment 2:

The second half delves into advanced techniques for taking your character to the next level. We’ll guide you through using Blender to either modify assets and clothes already made by others, create skintight outfits from the character mesh and design clothing from scratch with Simply Cloth Pro.

For an alternative workflow, we’ll also touch on Marvelous Designer.

You’ll also learn how to create custom hairstyles with curves, rig parts, and add physics to make them dynamic in FurryVNE. Finally, we’ll explore texturing programs like Substance Painter to show you how to add striking detail and polish to your assets.

We’re excited to share this journey with you, and we can’t wait to see what amazing characters you’ll create using these tutorials.

Stay tuned for Clementine’s debut and the launch of this series!

Male Athletic 2 WIP

• Mesh is work in progress. Mesh is still subject to change

Heya, Dogson here.

Here's a quick sneak peak on Male Athletic 2. Had some hard time balancing how defined in muscles should be here but I think it works with having him not big and beefy, but lean and defined it won't be mistaken for a huge body builder type, but a lean sprinter type!

All the best

Saddle up with Annika!

"Annika the Quarter Horse" was originally a concept by Dogson for a farm-themed release in our old project eight years ago, but she never came to life back then.

When we decided to recreate the old roster for Furry-VNE, it became clear that Adam would finally get the chance to reunite with his long-planned partner—and I couldn’t let that opportunity go to waste!

Now, here she is: Annika, shining bright and ready to join the fun.

We hope you enjoy her and can’t wait to see what stories you create with our horse couple for the upcoming release!

Adam 'Horse' is back!

The guy from Texas with the legendary mane, who could easily double as a male model, is about to make his debut in Furry-VNE!

I don’t think I need to tell you how much fun I’ve had working on the old roster—bringing them to life with personality and style. This journey is now coming to an end with the one who was once simply known as 'Horse,' now returning to us as Adam!

I hope you’ll enjoy him as soon as he launches in the upcoming build. As I write this, my focus is already shifting to his partner, Annika, who’s receiving her finishing touches for an equally exciting reveal. So, stay tuned!

–Blacky

Adam & Annika in the garden of Eden

I’m certainly glad to kick off this year with a touch of nostalgia and a little tease for you all. We’re taking it all the way back to the very roots of this project—where it all began, ten years ago.

There was this one guy, originally known simply as "Horse." Well, he’s about to make a comeback—not only revealing his name to us but also bringing along his girlfriend!

Adam was once a very important member of the old roster, and now it’s time to reimagine him with a fresh coat of paint and style. As for Annika, she was planned to join the project years ago, but due to reworks, engine changes, and other shifts, she remained just a silent head sculpt—an idea long forgotten. Now feels like the perfect time to dust off these old gems and give them (and you) the chance to dive into some fun adventures very soon.

I’ll keep you updated as their development progresses toward the finish line. For now, enjoy this little tease, set in the location where it all began.

Wishing you all the best for the year ahead,

–Blacky

Female Bear Template Update.

Mesh is still subject to change 

Heya, Dogson here.

Female Bear Template is going through a overhaul with the new BBW2 body type used in favor of the old bt_f_bunny one. I personally was quite displeased how the last update looked like so I've taken this opportunity to update her as I think this new body fits her much better with a powerful yet soft vibe going on for her. I hope you'll like it too!

All The Best

- Dogson

Introducing BBW2

Mesh is still subject to change

Hello, Dogson here.

New body type and this one is a new addition to all you big body lovers out there. After atheltic2 for female I thought to balance it out we'll head over to our bbw-roots and did a new big'un. A bit more shapes, one tummy shape or two on it and I think it's good to go.

All the best.

Giraffe & Horse template showcase

Hey everyone, Blacky here!

Today, I’m excited to share some new templates for the upcoming release.

The female giraffe is inspired by our beloved Maya, giving you the chance to create all kinds of variations based on her. I also decided to create a male version since we didn’t have one until now!

As for the horses, I have something special in the works already as well.

The male horse, in particular, might bring back memories for some of our longtime fans of a certain character...

Have a great week, and I’ll keep you posted!

Text narration

I noticed people were using step names as a way to tell stories. That isn't really optimal and not how they were intended to be used. So I made this new feature - set a text on a step, and it will show when you go to it:

https://gyazo.com/aee6a4d0e93e89f1c78b34546b879bdb

I expect to extend on this in the future, so it's mostly a placeholder for now, but at least it's much better than using step names.

This will be released with the December build.

All the best.
