[@Xx3nxX]

Ugh this is the 73rd time I found a blue kangaroo in my water bottle!

[@RexIsBored-_-]

Hahaha

[@idiotboyunderscore]

I applaud your creativity

[@Imjustflightstar19og]

Ha ha I get it

[@Xx3nxX]

i made this comment when i was like 12 help me

[@steamworks3823]

When you dont have a good transition into adoptables, just announce it XD

[@ceruleaferret1824]

I genuinely never knew that twitch streaming in the fandom was anything even remotely big, so that's something new I learned! I might even give it a go myself since I've wanted to be a streamer since before I was even a furry.

[@hayleyscomet3447]

Cerulea Ferret same. Being a streamer is no joke a dream of mine.

[@Trance88]

I love what you had to say about photographers! Credit us! Tip us! This is a big problem I've run into. I love taking photos at cons and have had a few people tell me how great my photos are, but there's no one willing to actually pay or tip me!

[@shadowwolfpup5411]

You see I'm a simple person, i see pocari upload i click

[@ciscoramone5176]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POCARI ROO a true inspiration to the fandom.

[@nathan5742]

Plush maker, prop maker, tail maker and artist here. I do way too many different things but i love it all and I love being able to do a variety of different things. The growing process is hard though!

[@felix-tr6ef]

Hewo Pocari Im a very young fur and you have taught me so many things about suits and the fandom Thank you so much I wouldn’t be here without you. :3

[@sfstein417]

I’ve grown up as a commission artist in the Fur Fandom honestly. I’ve been doing fur art for about 20 years now. I was lucky enough that my mother was already a professional artist and I got introduced in a very healthy way. I’m exited to build up myself to make a big splash as soon as conventions start again.

[@jeramyharper7305]

I love the fact that you brought up the writing part as I am writing a story with furries

[@r.j.lombardi111]

As a traditional artist, student and a furry (a lot, I know) I am thankful you posted this video. As soon as I free up some time I am going back to arts and craft. And who knows? Maybe I'll make something my furry buds will like.

[@BuffPup]

Aww hecc I didn't know I was in this!! YOURE SO SWEET!! And so knowledgeable! LOVE U!

[@WolfGodwin]

“No one is going to hand you a shortcut.” The Blue Kangaroo Truth. Seriously, so much can be accomplished if you dedicate regular time to a skill. I’m a music composer and have made actual money from music commissions. But I spent 10 years developing my skill before I ever dreamed of taking commissions from customers.

[@dadsgirl99pr]

Less commonly known are writers! Some people enjoy background stories being written for their characters :) I'm planning on learning to make fursuits :-) Not sure if I'll be actually making them for the public, but I want to bring my fursonas to life! And my daughter wants to as well! But my 'dream' job in the fandom if I had to pick would certainly be crafting. Whether it's suits or parts, etc. But again, might just stay with it as a hobby!

[@silversiren7046]

When you said plush ideas I thought...a plush heart with "free hugs" sewn into the centre, or a range of quotes like "beats to the music" and "Love fur all". It'd be really nice if there was a Velcro backing to it so people could stick it to their suits or, alternatively, make it a badge, keychain or necklace with a simple rope cord. You could even do paired versions for couples with quotes like "all fur one...and one fur all!". Totally Tm'ing that. IP right there.

[@_ashertherian8254]

When I’m older I want to be a fursuit maker, and also do KZbin! And I’m glad that I’ve started now because I’ve reached 100 subs!

[@MarlowMayhem]

For the prop making bit, the first thing that popped into my mind was cheese sticks

[@ModernBard]

I compose music and make film photography, but many furries tells me the demand is low and nobody will understand "why music into furry fandom ? " (especially in my style) and some ask to me why i do film photography because as they said "it cost so much compared to digital photography, i think i'm lost xD

[@Gizmo335]

Is anyone else just dazzled by the most ADORABLE intro in the bottle ever??

[@LuckyLunny]

Tbh, I've considered doing 3d modeling for my job. I'm a computer science student right now with some digital media, and I learned that technical art is what I like the most. I'm dipping into 3d modeling but I mostly just make games! :>

[@Fabtastic_Lizard]

Lmao I was going to commission the person at 2:11 yesterday. They have awesome art!

[@kitsunehoruri]

I've been doing art in the Furry fandom, Steampunk and Anime cone for several years, mostly at the hobby level. I now am doing KZbin videos as well. I still need to be able to edit my videos and acquire a camera that won't shut off without warning, but I have at least gotten started.

[@BuggyTrucks]

I clicked so fast, you couldn't even say UwU in the time I clicked

[@sharitascott1524]

The first thing that popped into my head was a smiling fluffy baby dragon doing a bleep.

[@weirdo2466]

Picaro:*uploads new video* Everyone:*happyness over load*

[@tabbydgurl]

Running/working for conventions! I've been in the convention business a long time (not for furries, but other alt lifestyle topics) and it's a high stress but high reward job!

[@paranoidfurry58]

Once I save up enough money, I'll be getting pins and shirts/hoodies with some of my sonas on them! I'll probably sell them if I manage enough. I also know how to make plushies but I'm still learning lol.

[@powdersanddagreat781]

Plush ideas Corn, heart, key chain, light switch and mini fursona

[@DanaM-jn1zb]

Im a young fur and im new to the fandom. I love the furry fandom so much and its my dream to get a fursuit one day😊. But I sometimes feel like the furry fandom and fursuits can be really intimidating😅. But your videos and channel have really helped me with the transition and I love how open and welcoming this fandom is its really helped❤️

[@c0rktre3]

i saw a prop that i thought was super smart. it was an ice cream bar on a popsicle stick but it had a fan in it so you’d put it in the fursuit mouth and then you’d be cooled off. i thought that was brilliant.

[@theissuetissue_]

What popped into my head was: a cat with a banana on his head, or even just a banana I could velcro to my future fur suits head

[@mcbvods]

The first thing that popped into my head was a peice of toast that has a hole to put your head trough

[@ReaverTyran]

I'm a writer. It doesn't make money, but I love writing about dragons, and non-human worlds. I've thought about crafting stories for furries in the future. Putting their characters into fantasy scenarios, learning their custom mannerisms, preferred speech patterns, and helping them create a proper universe to fit it all into. Then write it in front of them in google docs which will allow them to follow along. It's hard to find people willing to pay for a short story though. I'm extremely shy when it comes to social media too. Who would I approach to handle the social media for me? I've done google searches, but I'd more prefer to ask another furry. Any recommendations?

[@bowsercrusher19]

A giant groot you could also help run conventions like off and off and ac

[@frogintherose2910]

I made my first plush the other day, it turned out much better than I expected tbh, I’m planning to keep practicing then one day I hope to open commissions for plushies/ props... and maybe one day I’ll teach myself how to make suits...

[@Lycaon1765]

I made the good choice of taking metal production as an elective on HS this year. :)))

[@iolosef]

i saw these " electronic screens " on Amazon where you can connect them to a app and change what shows up on the screen. the first thing that came to mind was " im making these as fursuit eyes " and i really hope it turns out well. i think i might take commissions for electronic fursuits and such one day

[@bury_theHatchet]

Random plush idea: Two kiwi halves that velcro to become a full kiwi

[@milkmmd4405]

im not a furry amymore but i was about a year ago, and watched your content. i just saw your channel in my reccomend today, and got really exited! :)

[@icaruslangley1378]

honestly im making flopable ears so basically- ears but you can make them go up and down or one at a time- i think it will be a big hit.

[@robertpepperwolfe6924]

my skill is metal working (like industrial, not so much artsy, but i havent tried), so is there a market for things like fursuit stands? like custom drying racks or something? (btw, suiters, how much do you think your suit weighs after washing and still wet?)

[@Bendozary]

My prop would be either a bone or a piece of meat since my fursona is a dinosaur(gem raptor)

[@TheAlchemistEmpire]

As soon as I got the notification I clicked lmao

[@lunathefloof1092]

8:30 the first thing that popped up in my head was a toaster

[@starlathedrox5552]

Im a fairly new to the furry fandom, i wanna start making vidoes for youtube but im not really sure what to do i only have a phone so editing is not a very big option and im working on learning how to sew and draw i just wanna create things that make pepole happy also as for a plush i really really want a chocolate bar thats has a half ripped wrapper with a really cute anime face and for it to look really toony as a prop for my fursona i just love love love chocolate and so she does too

[@GarfieldPhone]

i want to make furry products that havent been made/ arent as common, like slippers, scarves, etc

[@chester.5400]

Gahh you upload so much its hard to keep track lmao. Love ur vids btw

[@KayaAvali]

A random plush idea huh. A blueberry with pink polka-dots

[@wesleyanderson2721]

First plushie idea to pop into my head: Rubik's Cube plushie.

[@potatopatch4563]

leaf cat, cat, that looks like its made of leaves, as a plushie

[@DarlingVioletOG]

a pasta bowl is what popped up into my head

[@cooperbryant8396]

Prop idea: first thing that popped into my head was a giant gear.

[@angelmanokit1143]

I can do almost all of these jobs, but I am a procrastinator..... I also am focusing on schooling and my acting

[@Hushlittleone3000]

Random prop idea...💡a chicken! And a small fri

[@camilaandrea801]

Omg!! This is so incredibly useful!! Thank you so much for the ideas :") Of: I couldn't figure out how the hell you move your eyes xD Dark magic, I assume.

[@laceycoccia2979]

tbh the first prop that popped into my head was a kawaii donut lol

[@l33tsaber]

I have a feeling there'd be a market for people with strong stomachs and quick ban button fingers to be chat moderators. Especially because the furry community and the trans community heavily intersect, so furry streamers probably get a double dose of trolls.

[@crispycringlez7215]

I’ve only been a furry for 2 weeks and I’m sure that it will probably stick with me for a long time. I absolutely love furries and think they are all so adorable. However, I’ve been stressing about it way too much these two weeks. I want to tell my family about it, but they seem to really hate furries. They make fun of furries a lot as well which makes it much worse. Because of all this I ended up getting sick and throwing up a lot today for the first time in five years, all just over the constant thinking I’ve been doing about being a furry. Pocario Roo however, has really helped me get through this whole stupid and unnecessary inner conflict. With her message about how being a furry is perfectly fine and just a hobby. She’s also a great role model for me considering that she isn’t into the porn side of the fandom. That’s mostly what’s causing all this insecurity in the first place, I’m worried about them stereotyping me and thinking I’m disgusting and stuff even though I have no desire to watch that stuff at all. Pocario Roo is also very fun to watch with how happy she always seems. Her fursona is also so freaking cute, keep up the great work! You’re the best!

[@northpaw]

Pocari: Photography Me: Furtograghy

[@ghostguy_x7085]

Pocari is the blue slush 🦘 Beagle is the red slush 🐶

[@keykereon]

resin is really fun but if any underage furs want to try it be warned that some resins put off strong fumes. Also for some resins you need to pop bubbles and for best results a heat gun or long bbq lighter is required. Sorry I just wanted to put a warning out for that as i am a resin and clay crafter myself.

[@kaylonyoung9693]

Pocari Roo is cuteness

[@SilverStarStrike]

Right now I'm kinda part-time freelance since I don't get much customers and i'm gonna be sucked into art college and plan on getting a job in the industry somewhere, but I would love to be a freelance accessory/prop maker! :D

[@snow2267]

*me putting hooks on custom resin keychains* AM I NOT ALONE?!?!?

[@greenbeanbeing8410]

I. LOVE. POCARI. uh.. the drink and the person

[@guilhermerafaelzimermann4196]

Welp, i just imagined a light cyan fat cat with a hard black screen face and stubby chibi limbs when pocari said the whole "first tjing that popped into your head" thing

[@hikaru9624]

Light bulb....it's 1 in the morning and I'm tired.

[@wintershock]

I was buying long fur for my fursuit head and tail and the girl who was working at the till got super excited and asked me if I was going to a con at that same city. I replayed saying that I haven’t heard of that con but I would check it out to see if I could go. I might end up going.

[@OxylSketch]

An Koxly LED Decorative Lighting String box XD

[@miasabogal6453]

I’m working on my first ever suit while watching this video! I’m excited to see where this takes me :)

[@slenderwolfmangledfox7568]

Not everyone can afford stuff so sharing around helps :3

[@lolbitsfnafcrew6613]

My random plush idea? *a lemon slice on toast*

[@princessfauna4320]

Being a fur-suit maker is my dream

[@clawrettadraws]

So I came up with an egg wizard... since you said she was a wizard and eggs as a plush because um, idk. XD

[@vixymix101]

Nimbus is a good boi

[@kaljackal9052]

I would totally be a freelance film maker or editor. But it's just hard to start off with little to no money. Although, I have a few merch ideas I wanna try out, and I do art too.

[@samuel-jf9rn]

0:46 "You incredible people" Uses middle finger

[@PocariRoo]

I have 4 fingers, which is the middle??

[@midnight_raven_5287]

And the thumb. Dont foget the thumb.

[@armyofmutantsarmy8648]

You people got talent, while me, a shitter, is just sitting around learning and failing drawing and breaking down my confidence.

[@undeadahead2150]

The first thing that popped into my head was a carpet

[@illyannaturtle6950]

Hello! I have a question... I have this character that i made, and really like. I would I love to commission some art of her, but I wouldn't be able to give the artist a full ref sheet of my character. I can only successfully draw her head, wings, and tail. I cannot figure out how i want to draw her body! What should I do? Would i be rejected if I tried to commission an artist?

[@mechanical8407]

Random prop idea: a roll of sticky tape...

[@aryanthewolf3207]

I’ll be here for twenty years

[@crimsonscorner4432]

When I heard the props I automatically thought of a fork and a toaster for my Manokit....Hmmm..

[@jlbeeen]

I really want to make a plush Wacom pen! For all of us digital artists!

[@lpspatronus9536]

Ok its only been a little bit, but I want pocari 1.5 back!!!

[@itsprettystabby6331]

Ok I know this is completely unrelated to the video _but_ does anyone have any advice for me? My main fursona (and favorite fursona) has a pumpkin for a head, I want to make a suit for her but I dont know what to do with the head. What material should I use? Or just do another fursona?

[@wingdinggaster3161]

Pocari:there are alot, so I split them up into 4 major parts misc:you fool! You've fallen for one of the classic blunders

[@kathrynoneill5818]

I'm an artist in the community, but I am too scared to up my prices because my friends said I've improved so much... T.T I try to keep my commissions open, but I usually cannot Im also a twitch streamer! My friend has a hyena based twitch and she has the sweetest twitch fandom. aha. :> I should make her twitch emotes, BUT she does art as well so it kinda defeats the purpose Id also love to make posters, Badges, and other things for furries to have

[@screamingatmice2797]

to bad a lot of artists can’t get good jobs though the fandom :/ not whining, its just kinda true. ofc the artists who do get good jobs by this have worked towards it. it just makes it harder for smaller artists to get there :,)

[@freddiejones6253]

I thought of a twister

[@gabrie_63]

me and my sister are gonna be starting a candle business together! we cant figure a name out yet but we hope our business goes well!!

[@eralol1622]

I thought of cheeseballs as a prop

[@Lotusmusic02]

5.6k views but not even 1k likes? What's happening? Love the video though!!

[@karakorussi4208]

*slides over to Pocari Roo* Did someone say "furry universe"? Already on it.

[@demelzila]

the first thing that came to mind was a blender lol. :P

[@Kyra-1138]

I'm actually trying to write a video game right now and am wanting to use certain furry species as other races in my game. I just need a programmer 3D designer and a few artists though to make this happen.

[@drowsystag46yearsago5]

If you made a life sized plush of a bed... Would it just be a bed or a bed plushie,,?

[@TheNeonSlushie]

Been a full-time professional fursuit concept artist for 10 years now!! 🙌💙

[@robopuffy]

I actually always wanted to be a mascot...
