@nyanfayel Every single account that I had blocked for homophobia, long before Valko even appeared, turned out to be against him. Thatβs something to think about.
@sutaisuja Yes! Generally, charisma plays a big role. If a wolf on four legs has human emotions and intelligence, it will attract more attention. But still, priority is given to anthro.
Iβm a furry artist, but the most ridiculous thing about the whole situation with Valko is that furries arenβt actually interested in him at all. Heβs just not their thing. If furries were actually interested in Valko, believe me, they would have helped us out a long time ago.
@MsFrostFeathers@PencintaApelll The only reason there might be an issue with furry is that it consists primarily of men, and some people would inevitably complain that men were being brought into the conversation yet again π So perhaps itβs for the best that we didnβt manage to attract attention π
@sutaisuja The way Valko looks in his wolf form is, unfortunately, too feral to interest them. He might attract a bit of attention, but the furry community tends to prefer anthro characters π€ If they had shown us a giant wolf standing on its hind legs, that would be a different story!
@MsFrostFeathers@PencintaApelll No-no, that was just me adding a little something of my own to the topic, of course! ^^
At one point, I even regretted not using my second (furry) account to spread the word about Valko, but that moment has passed now.
@MsFrostFeathers@PencintaApelll Yes, Iβm sure every furry would support Valko, but having a love for Valko doesnβt make someone a furry (something antis fail to understand). Otome games are still too niche to be widely noticed by the furry community.
@BlackRoseWitchx Yes, exactly. Thatβs a different theme. As long as Valko isnβt a full-fledged anthro, he wonβt attract the proper attention from the furry community.
@Makaburu_Joo I think that if we had told the furry community about the situation with Valko in time, many would have chosen to show their support. Thatβs because the furry community is built on the manual labor of artists, writers and animators, they truly value human creativity.
@BlackRoseWitchx Yes, he is a werewolf after all. Within the furry fandom, there are many people who are fond of werewolves, but that still isn't the primary interest of the community as a whole π€ He is too much of a human being.
@tangerineflawor Thank you! π₯° Yes, in Rafayelβs lore there are constant references to Dionysus and I wanted to depict something based on that theme!
I think I have a knack for sensing themes for RafayelοΏ½οΏ½s solo cards π Last year, just before an announcement, I had a dream that Rafayel and I were out for a drive. This time, I drew Rafayel with grapes, right before the reveal of a new card.
