Description I recently figured out a different way to do paws that make them easier to work with, so here I am trying out some variations.

Oh my gods ;;A;; I have found Heaven on Earth! This is THE best picture, ever!

And definitely +10 points and a parrot badge solely for the fact that you have raccoons in there too, my best friend's sona happens to be a raccoon :'DDD

They're so cute! I always figured raccoons had thinner feet though. Sleek and less defined because they're rodents...

NOo9oo!!!!

Raccoons are in their own family known as Procyon!!

Their paws are digitigrade and have 5 toes!!

Raccoons are actually carnivores with plantigrade feet, somewhat like bears.

felix-leg [2009-07-03 14:13:43 +0000 UTC]

I think I will use it sometime... Only one thing: should be pads visible when paw is placed on ground?

RickGriffin In reply to felix-leg [2009-07-03 15:46:47 +0000 UTC]

Some pads, yes, like dog pads.

All my friend told me pads are never visible in that position... so they all was wrong...

I have more difficulty figuring out how to do pads on the hands of my anthro characters.

RickGriffin In reply to raletheotter [2009-06-04 21:14:49 +0000 UTC]

Well, yes, that is also hard. I have been wanting to figure out how to make a hand that is paw-like (or even hoof-like) and still functional.

raletheotter In reply to RickGriffin [2009-06-05 02:38:27 +0000 UTC]

I've tried a few designs that were modeled a bit like a primate's hands, which would seems largely functional enough, though I'm not entirely sure I like the design in such cases.

These are great, i may have to use them as a reference if i decide to draw more non-anthro stuff ^^

While I can't offer any critique, I do want to thank you for the references and for tips you gave elsewhere. I know a particular coon friend of yours will go crazy over this.

lethe-gray [2009-06-04 04:02:50 +0000 UTC]

I wish I had even a small portion of your talent.

Is it easier for you to draw digitigrade paws like the canine / feline, or the more flat plantigrade raccoon feets? I suck at feets, and I don't mean that in the naughty way lol.

(btw: I read Housepets and I was a pet in a dream last night... it was ... odd...)

RickGriffin In reply to lethe-gray [2009-06-04 04:10:02 +0000 UTC]

Well I could be lazy, and if I am, digitigrade is easier. If I'm trying something like this, they're about the same.

oboroten In reply to RickGriffin [2011-08-23 22:45:57 +0000 UTC]

For raccoon feet, do you think it is a good idea to emphasize the contrast between the outermost and innermost toes? See, for example, [link]

Why, yes, I think so.

Interesting... I've never actually taken the time to see the foot-pads as anything more than dots.
