Au Ra tail poll

[Fuma]

I'm so torn over what tail to go with personally for my Au Ra and wanted to see what others were thinking so I made a poll! It's something we'll see all the time while playing so we gotta get it just right.

I personally like the fat tail. I like the emphasis that I do have a tail. Pretty big too. Want to seeeeee?

Nice idea, I was leaning toward spiky female tail but looking at how popular it is I might swap to skinny female tail just to feel a bit more like a special snowflake lulz.

I am using the first tail...the spiky one reminds me of a creepy insect tail whenever I see it move I shudder haha yuck

It's ok. No one ever does. But in all seriousness, I made a few Au'Ras to see how how they match. If I made a big character, I usually went with a thick tail. My shorter character got the small skinny tail. I feel their body and tail should be proportioned. My opinion obviously.

No love for the gator tails. :')

For me, the male skinny tail (1).
Visually the tail has to blend into the look of my character and the larger ones just seem a bit too overemphasized and slightly disproportionate compared to how and where they are attached to the body. Also the larger the tail, the more potential clipping issues and I really dislike clipping.
While the spikey tail is the most popular, I am not a fan. First off, it angles too sharply near the end, where the last animation rig joint is, which makes it look awkward to me. Also, it just looks potentially uncomfortable, like you would constantly get poked by the spines on it while moving about, and trying to sit or lay down.
At least that is how I feel about the tails.

Seems I'm going with the majority, female tail with spikes. I don't mind that though. ^^

I'm using the spiky female tail because it's the only one that seems dragon like. The one like Yugri looks like a rat tail or a worm and the fat one has that weird thinness near the base.
