Perhaps someone can help me understand the difference between an anthropromorphic animal mascot (which as a tale as old as time) and a furry? When does one cease to be one and becomes another?

There are animal mascots all the time in sports. Why is that not weird, but it's weird to have a sporty animal mascot for coins?

was it made by a person with passion for the art, or a soulless corporation for the purpose of marketing and advertising? Usually, you can tell simply by the quality of the art which it is.

to me, just some guy, "a furry" is a person with this particular set of desires or sympathies, and an animal mascot is a marketing function of a business. Entirely subjective, reflexive and subject to cross over.

I have no idea but the eyes and the smile definitely give a different vibe than most mascots.

The musculature and hands are what do it for me.

Well this is what happens when you let fish plan your campaigns.

I'm confused: I thought that awful smell was coming from feet... 🤷‍♀️

Oftopic, but lately I started to draw some furry ladys and its pretty fun try to make the fur feel smooth in the drawings.
