A big sketch comm for @feybeasts! I had a lot of fun turning Lena into a decadent tigertaur for this one <3

[feybeasts]

New Lena default look, ok? Multiple tails and a taurish form really didn't seem like they'd blend, but!! I made it work!!! And I'm so so so pleased...

SHAKES YOU how do you draw taurs. i need help i genuinley cant wrap my head around the anatomy of it. optionally i need help with fat taurs but any kind of taur is okay

Ooh, I love these sorta questions!!!

So there are two main things folks usually struggle with when it comes to drawing taurs as a whole. 1, they struggle with quadrupedal anatomy and 2. connecting the humanoid upper body to the quadrupedal lower body. Obviously there's no shame in either of these things, drawing four legged animals, especially if you're more used to the anatomical structure of something more humanoid is quite tough! And finding the sweet spot where humanoid and quadruped meet to make a taur is a bit of a struggle for folks who're still figuring it out.

So! The first thing you wanna do really is just familiarize yourself with quadrupedal anatomy. Look at the skeleton of the creature you're trying to taur and see how things like their limbs bend differently or how they're just differently naturally posed as compared to someone who walks upright.

This is a very simplified skeleton of a cat, but you can pretty immediately see how differently everything bends. And I'm not saying it's something you have to perfectly master to know how to draw a taur (especially when you get to drawing fat taurs), but i highly recommend becoming familiar with how a quadrupedal body is structured, the silhouette of most animals is quite misleading! And absolutely use reference!

Heck, our first go at drawing taur Riley was super heavily referenced (I'll even share the ref image if anyone is interested!), and this still came out real jank. Practice makes perfect!

As for connecting the upper body to the lower body, this is a little more subjective and up to you, but I'll lay out some general guidelines.

Generally speaking, you wanna put the humanoid torso where the base of the neck is, the front of the torso kinda merging with the rest of the taur body just after the tummy, basically just before the crotch starts.

As for the back, you're gonna want to shoot for just shy of where the butt starts, waist having curved back outwards. It gets a little awkward if you go higher or lower than that. And obviously, you wanna make sure the torso is firmly planted in the center of where the neck should be, ehehe.

That's pretty much the basics though! As always, i recommend looking at how your favorite taur artists draw the creatures and studying off of that! Familiarize yourself with quadrupedal anatomy, and use reference!! You will absolutely get it down with time. I will absolutely cover fat taurs if there's interest in it, and ofc, lemme know if there's anything I missed or need to go over! I hope this helps!

worldbuilding for dumb furry bullshit is so goddamn fun

for a while now ive had the thought "yknow. taurs probably need to eat more food but just having them order double of things is boring" so i decided, in universe, every burger/chicken sandwich/ fast food item in a similar vein can be asked for "taur style" where its now longer, kinda like the burger king chicken sandwiches. instead of the typical 1:1 overhead aspect ratio of a burger, its 2:1 with the same width as a typical burger at that establishment.

also establishing that they used to be served like that one outside wolves image, but that fell out of fashion as that was difficult to package and eat. also also, theres some locations that assume taur style by default, and theres a whole culture and foodie discissions about what makes a good taur burger. arguments about if it has to be one long patty or if two regular ones are fine, arguments about how the bread must be made. all down to preference, mind you

i also really like the idea of someone who's not a taur going to one of these taur-assumed joints and the guy taking the order shouting "CAN I GET A NUMBER 4 FOR THE BIPED" and that translating to "make this burger small this guy isnt a taur"
