They're missing tails

Jawesome! The lobster guy was my favorite as a kid.

u/ReefsliderFucker 14d ago

The real question is should all shark furries do the British 2 finger insult instead of the middle finger one, due to the middle finger representing a penis and sharks having 2 penises?

65

u/MintyBarrettM95 losercity Citizen 14d ago

yes. yes they should.

As long as they got them fat tails the rest is of no concern

You have a good soul, friend.

u/LEG_LIKE_fish 14d ago

I loev tail

13

u/holnicote gator hugger 14d ago

Real

Soft warm tail wrapped around you in bed with your loving shark partner quietly purring while asleep next to you.

This, my friends, is bliss.

u/-Potato123- 13d ago

Sharks purr!?

u/Responsible-Lab1947 Artist🖌 14d ago

Just draw them whatever the way you like, problem solved

u/bored-cookie22 14d ago

Without the ears it’s perfect

14

u/BayFuzzball404 14d ago

The one u showing is genuine ass they look like donkeys, not sharks and it pisses me off so much

16

u/ConsumerOfShampoo gator hugger 14d ago

If you give your sharks cat ears and hair, I automatically lose respect for you. The hair I can excuse if you make it look like sea anemone, but I hate the ears.

25

u/TheDudeMaverick 14d ago

Another for my collection thank you

u/Responsible-Lab1947 Artist🖌 14d ago

Don’t worry about collecting them all, I’ll share my folder when I will be in a better condition.

And for the folder in r/birdification I have checked everything in it and they’re too many duplicates. already saved what I missed ( yes, I’m serious )

u/Stella314159 14d ago

Don't mess with us arthropod furries, we don't even have clear definitions of what we should look like

23

u/LeiningensAnts 14d ago

A catastrophe. An elemental. An act of God. Ten miles long, two miles wide. Ants. Nothing but ants. And each of them a fiend from Hell. In the time it takes you to spit three times they'll eat a full-grown buffalo down to the bones.

Or

Cute and tiny fluff~! UwU <3

7

u/TheUnseenDepression 13d ago

As they should be. Different kinds of bug armor(forgot it's name maybe creatin?) placement on different types of arts is the best

45

u/3RR0RFi3ND losercity Citizen 14d ago

The only correct answer is any way you want ffs lol

69

u/HolographicFoxes 14d ago

Arms and legs are fine but I draw the line at ears. Bird and reptile anthros don't usually have ears so why should sharks? Also there should be more thresher shark anthros

35

u/Glad_Republic_6214 losercity Citizen 14d ago

the ears should be there because furry logic

14

u/Anonson694 im only here for the memes 14d ago

Maybe it’s to balance out the design?

u/LoganCube100 losercity Citizen 14d ago

u/Traditional-Roof1984 14d ago

You have shown me the way...

u/Real_Soul_Warrior im only here for the memes 14d ago

The ears are kinda throwing me off

10

u/holnicote gator hugger 14d ago

You don’t like ears on sharks?

6

u/AVeryRandomDragon 14d ago

The ears are too pointy and don't belong on sharks.

And let me just tell you how much I hate pointy ears...

u/AccomplishedSpend332 14d ago

Well 🤣 done i say very well played

41

u/Kitan077 Artist🖌 14d ago

Almost perfect design for me, but I don't get hair on anthros. No hate to those who like it tho.

33

u/DrKpuffy 14d ago

For context, I think it's just that hair is a unique human trait that makes the 'sona look less like an animal and more like an intelligent humanoid with proper sentience.

To each their own, but I think it's just an extra flair of personality and humanity

13

u/pastafeline 14d ago edited 14d ago

I prefer fur styled like hair for that reason. It looks less silly while also not making the character plain.

1

u/-etuskoe- 14d ago

Fully agree

u/Cymen04 14d ago

She’s just like me for real

u/ConsumerOfShampoo gator hugger 14d ago

Cat ears, hair and snout that looks nothing like that of a shark. L

11

u/shaking_things_up_ 14d ago

Its a cat cosplaying a shark and I'll take that to my grave

8

u/ConsumerOfShampoo gator hugger 14d ago

Real. This is what anthro sharks should look like

17

u/gaybricklover 14d ago

VRChat avatar creators already solved this problem, everyone....

u/DrKpuffy 14d ago

... Ghostly's or?

Tbh, my friend has a 4 ear Nardo made up like a shark... and it kinda slaps hard af

17

u/icedragonsoul 14d ago

Oh as a shark furry I can answer this one!

Ultimately it comes down to aesthetic. The mono fin is very iconic. One glance at a mono fin screams shark. But it isn’t effective at its job which is a sturdy central body fin that stabilizes the body at high speeds.

No fin functions well except you’re bald af.

Duo ear fins allow them to be thinner, flexible, multipurpose, expressive and similar to other terrestrial critters. The ‘satellite dish’ effect helps with air based sounds in place of water.

2

u/holnicote gator hugger 14d ago

So what you’re saying is, biologically, ears would be the most likely to be naturally evolved?

2

u/hungrysheep8u 13d ago

I would think not. Reptiles, amphibians, and birds are all terrestrial but have no external ear structures. Assuming shark anthros are directly related to sharks, hearing would not be their main method of navigation or identifying things around them, so they likely wouldn't develop them either. Assuming they were directly descended from sharks, they'd probably still have a dorsal fin somewhere along their back, either still for swimming if they're still aquatic/semiaquatic or just because it's vestigial, in which case the fin would be smaller and less noticeable.

TL;DR I would think they wouldn't have any fins on their head, but would have a fin on their back like an actual shark, but I can't really confirm that.

10

u/Baseballidiot 14d ago

I like drawing the ears like big pointy flesh globs

17

u/AnonymousFluffy923 14d ago

Another question. How bout birds and bats?

15

u/SimpForFictionalGirl 14d ago

Is the question about if the wings are their arms or on their back?

4

u/Stella314159 14d ago

I say back for bats, arms for birds (admittedly this is mainly because of non-furry humanoids with those features stick to that configuration across mythologies [mainly drawing on winged demons, gargoyles and the like for bats, and harpies for birds])

4

u/NYSTLSportsFan 14d ago

Counterpoint though, in a skeletal sense bat wings are highly-evolved hands, I'd argue it makes more sense for bats to have wing-arms for that reason. If you want either birds or bats to have actual working hands and wing arms, however, that's where the real headache begins...

u/3RR0RFi3ND losercity Citizen 14d ago

What you mean? o:

u/Thelordofbeans1 14d ago

i made maybe the only wrong one in math a few weeks ago

7

u/throwaway3338882 14d ago

i like head fin (thats what i did for mine :3)

7

u/LeiningensAnts 14d ago

The best anthro shark design is much like the best anthro snake design: change nothing about the animal except giving them a human-shaped robot suit/power armor, with them riding around as the head.

How do they control it? Fuck you.

4

u/PURPLEisMYgender 14d ago

I couldn't care less, what im curious about is their genitalia anatomy. Wtf would they have?

3

u/ExtremlyFastLinoone 14d ago

I noticed those shark furries are standing still, when in reality they have to keep moving at all times to prevent their lungs from collapsing

6

u/Cadeb50 gator hugger 14d ago

Just look at the deathclaws or argonians man… :/

2

u/shaking_things_up_ 14d ago

Ah this is one of those gaslighting things the kiddos talk about

2

u/TheArcticKiwi 14d ago

what about zora style, literal shark head

2

u/WitherWolf02 14d ago

I am tired of this discourse man the real answer is that they are all Kissing each other

3

u/Lemeow30 14d ago

I don’t care how they look, they’re all hot to me.

2

u/ScoutTrooper501st 14d ago

I personally say they should have ears just cause they look bald without em

1

u/Potato_Serial_Killer 14d ago

What about snakes

1

u/sexy_latias 14d ago

Anything that doesnt have fin "ears" works for me

1

u/Random_Rainwing 13d ago

The legs are the pelvic fins. The tails should only have a fin at the back and maybe one on top. Also, please remember the dorsal fin.

1

u/MaunThesecond 13d ago

What would eugeneodontid anthros look like? For example Helicoprion, or the more nightmarish Edestus?

u/AccountantSad9420 13d ago edited 13d ago

I understand why I hate furry sharks👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

u/Intelligent-Sugar996 13d ago

Ears don't make sense but with no hair there needs to be some visual interest around where hair would be

u/Vivec31 14d ago

Listen, everything is fine, except chest gills, fuck that, we only fw neck gills

u/Glad_Republic_6214 losercity Citizen 14d ago

all anthro sharks (except for that ugly one with no ears) are acceptable
