Resurrecting this thing from the last time I posted it (its been about a year or two-ish)!
okay so I've looked at absolutely every beast head available and I have to say, we have enough tights and power armor, lets give those beasties an upgrade.
something to keep in mind is that we don't want more savage, snarling, unblinking beasts, we want new and improved.
Some Examples Are:
-Panda Head
-Rodent Heads (Mouse, Rat, Someotherkindofrodenthere)
-Rhino Head
-Dragon Heads, (Asian and Western themed.)
-Reptilian Heads (Alligator/Crocodile, More Lizard heads In general)
-A proper cape glide animation for the wing side accessories
-Beast heads hats.
-Feline Heads (Lion, Tiger, Domestic cats of many patterns, Lynx, ???)
-Mane for Feline Head
-Canine Heads (Dalmatian, German Shepard, Pug, Wolves, Fox, Golden Retriever)
-"Bug" heads (Praying Mantis Head, Fly Head, Wasp head)
-Avian heads (???)
-Pig head/boar head(s)
-Serpent Skin on female heads
-Separate muzzles and ears, in order to mix and match and allow further customization
-Compatibility with hair and other available accessories
-New/Upgraded Digitigrade legs
-More Tails and tail options such as armoring
-Lion Mane
-Scorpion Tail
-Helmets for beasts
-Animal Costume type noses
(Post will be updated with a general gathering of the thread as it goes on)

    All good ideas!
    I would particularly like to see some anthropomorphic heads. And what I mean by that is... the current animal heads look like 100% normal beast heads. Anthropomorphic heads on the other hand would look animal-like with human characteristics.
    Good examples of this are Alvin and the Chipmunks, Killer Croc, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and a ton of anthropomorphic animal characters from Disney movies. They all don't have realistic animal heads. They have anthropomorphic faces with human expression.

    I want to state that I'm not a "furry", but I would love the option of some cute/pretty anthropomorphic heads as oppose to the realistic/ugly ones we currently have.
    Just once I'd love to make an anthro-animal hero (though I did make a monkey girl, but that was doable with a human head).

    Furry should not even be a derogative term to begin with.

    The Correct Terms are Anthro, Anthropomorphic, Humanized Animals, Petting Zoo People
    The term Furry is really misleading and lost it context via years, also it's really inacurated using the word Furry for animals characters WITHOUT Fur (Avians, Scalies, Ambitians, Fish e.t.c)

    Also MORE AVIAN SETS FOR NON LIFETIMERS PLEASE! Make an alternation-expansion of the set for Z store for people who CAN'T afford to go lifetimers, which contain ONLY the BEASTIAL PARTS and not the armor :| I suffer here for not having access on my most favorite pack and I can't pay 280 Euros just for 1 costume set, my MAIN is a Bird but... Locking this set behind Lifetimer is really Sadistic for me :mad:


    also Hairstyles, Eye Accessories, Head Accessories, Hats & Helmets for Beastial and Monster Heads PLEASE! :biggrin: they need to remove this Limitation from tailor because IT CAN HAPPEN!

    They also need to include bear ears, I mean they have cat and rabbit, why not bear?

    What bugs me is that you call them anthropomorphic which is a term that describes anything that's human like. That includes androids, golems, Tolkien ent, Zelda Deku Shrubs as well. In that it covers inanimate objects that take the form and characteristics of humans not just human-like beasts.

    But you think the word Furry is misleading because it doesn't cover reptiles?

    this isn't the place to argue the definition of furry but usually the term "Scaley" is used when referring specifically to reptilian "Furries". The term furry is mostly used as a general word for Anthropomorphic reptiles, Mammals, and Avian alike, its simply easier than dividing these groups up and using individual names for them

    People in the furry community don't really use "harpy" or "scaly" for birds and scaled animals anymore. It's a bit anachronistic. It's moot because we have marine mammal furs as well as furs with different animals mixed together... also latex, rubber, slime and goo furs.

    Anywhoo as long as we're asking for furry costume parts I vote a nice mane that works well with the monstrous werewolf costume set. Like a santa beard that goes all the way around the head. And then maybe a feline head in the style of the monstrous werewolf heads.

    Can't say I've ever heard the term "Harpy" when referring to an anthropomorphic avian, I still hear the term "Scaly" for scaled animals though.

    Very good idea! I've been wishing for more beastial heads for a while.
