So, I'd kind of like to see how everyone's characters turned out in comparison to their actual fursona (assuming you have one)! Here's my own... Amorous Actual Reference This could also help bring up some character creation suggestions for the game, possibly!
Amorous Actual reference Well, I was trying my best to make my character look like a Lucario. I only added the brown hair because it felt a bit empty on top. Of course, I had a fully organic version of my fursona in mind when creating this (which meant no cybernetic parts, and I'm not sure if anyone in the game has that kind of kinks. XP ). And no, I'm not saying that you should make it so you actually can create a Lucario like character (due to rights problems obviously). Because with creativity, so will you be able to make something clasely similiar anyway.
To be perfectly honest, the thought of a fursona used to be really weird to me. The whole "having an animal to represent yourself" felt very "otherkin" when I first became aware of the fandom (of course, I am VERY aware of the difference between furries and otherkin now). I originally wanted to be a griffon, but without wings, I felt I just looked stupid with talon arms and paw pad feet. So, I compromised to the avian look (I figured it works since I'm supposed to be Coby's brother after all). Short beak, bright green body, cyan hair, and chubby build, and about a half hour later, I think I nailed how I look in the Amorous universe pretty okay.

Amorous Reference Not bad, all told. Could do with a 'frill' option for a headpiece though, rather than those obtrusive plates *Edit: Fixed, as per Lennian's post
Good idea for a topic! However, I see people hotlinking FurAffinity refsheet-images. This is not supported as it will generate a 403 when clicked later. Could you guys post an actual FA link? We can use these attempts in combination with the refsheet to see where we could improve.
Amorous Sadly, ref-wise, I'm in the same boat as Patrigue above. Hope everyone can see it. If not, I may have to post it on my Tumblr. Not much advertisement, because six followers, so none of you've any reason to lie to me.
Amorous Fursona This being my first fursona i did him out of tribute…though that was back in the day when he had the really odd looking grey beard.
Here's all of my creations, and I think you'll get most of the references by yourselfs ! ^^ http://imgur.com/a/AqbH1
Mine is on my profile pic now so just glance at that I don't know how to use those fancy image sites so...
Is there a way to get back to customization from a saved game? Or do I have to make a new character all over again...
