Heey, do you know? Despite having started being a panda since the year 1998, when I was 9 years old and I went to the Chapultepec's zoo and see the giant panda with my eyes, there in front of me, in person.... but without knowing about the furry fandom until 2007, thanks a friend from the college who asked me if I was a furry, when she (now "he") saw my drawings with pandas, foxes, raccoons....and not being officially part of the furry fandom until more people in a Devmeet asked me the same, and they were a little group of furries in my town who introduced me the furry fandom.... now in the year 2016, 18 years after the decision of being a panda (I think that's the age of many of you), and 9 years later being part of this fandom, now having a fursuit, many furry conventions attended, being what many people considers a "furry trash", because the fandom is now part of my life.....
I finally decided to do a reference sheet of my fursona.
I introduce everyone: PARINTON!!! Yes, that's his name, it is also a long story about why his name was that, why I didn't introduce myself as Parinton, but PACO, many many stories about this character, how his story started, how I imagined him at the beggining, how this guy has represented me stronger than my own human look, but probably I'd write a whole novel on this description.
But maybe the question many of you will ask: "Why is Parinton tailless?" The answer is: Pandas have no tails as the rest of the bears, probably you'll argue that indeed they have, is a tiny odd white not-so-fluffy tail, but just check it out, it is almost invisible:
And I'm fine without a tail. If I had a tail, I'd prefer to have a raccoon's, those guys have a very lovely tail!! But I'm a regular panda, and I've never been of create hybrid characters (I'm okay with them, some are very original and cool, but in my universe just exists regular animals).
What I know is that I'm very proud of being a Giant Panda, even if I love raccoons, foxes, bunnies, turtles, grizzlys... I'll never change my mind of being a Panda bear. And I'm very happy to know we are not endangered anymore n__n
Oh gosh! No tail! I never really thought about how panda's have no tails! Very interesting! Your very right in that a racoon tail would be a great one to have if you did tho! So long, fluffy, and cute. Luckily your so freaking cute you don't need that kind of tail, or you might break all the internet with your cuteness. =^-^=
