Heya, Scott. Thanks for keeping up on drawing PVP.
Alot of folks looks like to be flaming you for trying to make a joke about the ongoing "furry folks are sick bastards" contreversy which has been raging for years now... and that some folks (including I) are getting sick of.
Come on. What's the deal? Can't folks realize that there are too many paraells between the furry fandom and the so called "real life?" Furry's "blond bimbo" may just be the huge-busted airheaded anthro-vixen, and there's so much blatant diversity out there. There's more similarities out there, and folks aren't realizing that. I doubt alot of them also *do not* realize there's no way to absolutely define "normal" without using relative term (ie comparisions). Noone's is normal.
In addition, when someone tries to poke fun at the contreversy, all hell breaks loose against the artist, no matter what genre he or she may be in. Can't they take a joke? Or is everyone a kook in their own little worlds?
Keep at it, Scott. The more it's done, the more the complainers are pointed out as uninformed fools. This comming from a webcomic artists who's not afraid to straddle the line to create characters who look good and yet are intelligent enough to score over 105 on a modern IQ test.
