Their attempts to not laugh and describe it as anything [i]but[/i] smut. It hurts.
back when furry porn was perceived as art and you could sell and nobody thought there was anything weird about it
90s sure were the more civilized age
On a real note I don't get what the deal is considering that anthropomorphic characters/eroticism have been subjects of art for centuries soooo. YEA.
Those pieces were truly before their time.
They just get worse and worse. This is hysterical.
I was coming into this thread thinking "maybe he was trying to be edgy and artsy"
nope yep that's just furry porn
"This... normal human activity... needs very little description."
I'm seriously amazed that this isn't a fake. Until someone sent me the source, I was convinced it couldn't be real.
The worst part is that in terms of furry art - especially in the 90s - it's actually good quality.

Apparently this one got him banned from the show.
Needs to be a velvet painting hanging in the den of somebody's trailer home.
I wonder where Brian Swords of York is today.

He's still around... somewhere. I couldn't find anything from him for the past 4 years or so but people are claiming to have talked to him recently so he's probably alive.
He has a [URL="http://biohazard.furholt.net/"]website[/URL] (very NSFW) with a [i]ton[/i] of this sort of art.

If you check the comments of the video in the OP, somebody's tracked down his FurAffinity account and posted a link. View at your own risk, of course.
Addendum: And of course, as the other posts here say, he's got his own active website.

Depending on the artist and demand, some [del]people[/del] individuals pay upwards of $300 commissions/awful YCH auctions.
Now, even then, it all depends on the time taken for the piece. Even at 6 hours, at $300 piece is $50/hr. However, the line of work is extremely variable and only really safe as a way to make money on the side. What few people I remember who tried to turn it into a living usually came out with disastrous results. It's also probably grating, if you're a semi-good artist, to be stuck handling the occasional insanely rich/trust-fund manbaby who wants you to draw a sparklefairy Mary Sue with excruciating details.
I dunno about you but I think they are pretty darn cute. I have no real bias towards furry stuff and this obviously predates the furry subculture as we know it today. It's not even explicit porn, I think they are just delightful, positive and adorable, albeit nothing special.
Not considering the rest of his stuff on the homepage for obvious reasons.

Oh god they're GIF's. They are fucking GIF images. This is shit so old it was being hosted on bulletin boards. :v:
Also, check the file names. Eight characters. This goes back to the DOS/3.1 era.
(JPEG files were then considered "large" and "high resolution" image files. No sane person with a 9600 baud modem would touch them)

I'd say maybe around 100 or so artists actually make a lot of money, a.k.a. more than they would at a more traditional job. Those are typically the kind of people who just cash out with YCHes. I only know of a few who are actually "fair" but their waitlists often last years...
And don't forget that the good fursuit makers - of whom there are only a handful - [URL="https://www.furbuy.com/auctions/1067665.html"]can make serious bank[/URL]. Yes, there are five digits there. That auction only ended because the site was suspiciously DDoS'd for the five minute anti-snipe period after the winning bid.

Nevermind. My teachers have websites that were updated days ago and they still look like this early web design.

$11575 holy fucking hell! I'm in the wrong business.
Furry communities existed in the early 90s, even before the "internet" there were people who RPed on usenet. Hell, the word "yiff" was created in the early 90s (although at the time it didn't have sexual connotations). People just didn't become widely aware of furries until Something Awful came along.
I thought that in the 90's they just sold you straight up bestiality pornos.

I'm pretty sure bestiality fetishists and furries are different people, usually.
