April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberIs it me or she has a wolf/fox nose ?
Lizard man
MemberNo, I thought so as well.

MemberI’ve seen this before; a lack of research and/or lack of experience can cause furry artists to depict everything as essentially canine but with different ears and tails.

MemberYou are not alone. Her face is quite weird.
FYM
Membernot only does she have an odd long muzzle... but the ears are rather pointy and short. but the rest is very nicely done, esp. her "bunny burrow"

MemberI’ve looked over the other stuff listed as by this artist; it appears to confirm my earlier hypothesis.
The pics featuring canines were normal looking, while everything else was somewhat off-putting to look at.
If Taurika wishes to improve as an artist, a good place to start would be to practice non-canine body shapes and features.

MemberDamn everybody's renting this image pretty badly with that nose stuff.
@taurika if come here, your style still rocks and it looks very nice. I hope that comment section won't make you stop drawing Judy anyway
Taurika
MemberHello! Thanks for your interest in this picture. I would like to know your opinion about my other works. I have a little practice in drawing non-canine characters, and just like any other artist, I want to draw better and better
anonymouslurker99
MemberGood to hear, not every artist reacts positively to honest feedback.
A good place to start would be to research the differences in skeletal and muscular structures between different types of animals, and then practice incorporating them into your art.
As an example, it’s an unfortunately little known fact that rodents and lagomorphs have convex faces, not concave ones like members of the order Carnivora.
You can see the difference here:
Rabbit (https://c7.alamy.com/comp/CNMW49/european-rabbit-oryctolagus-cuniculus-adult-close-up-of-head-sitting-CNMW49.jpg)
Wolf (https://image.shutterstock.com/image-photo/grey-wolf-canis-lupus-straight-600w-1404917153.jpg)
Another important element to study and practice is ears, as ears are one of the first visual elements detected by the brain when looking at images depicting anthropomorphic characters.

MemberWell damn I'm glad you came by !
Honestly, I know nothing about drawings ahaha ! I believe you should listen to anonymouslurker99's answer. He looks like he knows his stuff pretty well.

Memberi love how you have a positive outlook on what everyone is dragging on and you get negative votes some how, e6 always baffles me
Taurika
MemberHello! Thanks for the detailed description!

MemberBecause the head structure in this image is objectively, noticeably wrong for a rabbit and artists shouldn't be wrapped up in cotton wool and told that everything is perfect; or they'll never improve their style and skill.
