Garyu (Germany)

Garyu, also known as Testament and YZ_02, is an artist from Bavaria, Germany.

He has created some Flash animations and vide ogame fanart featuring well-endowed male characters. He has done some fur-related images, including fanart of the "Breath of Fire"-series, a picture of Red Aremer from "Demons Crest", and some Xeno pictures. His first furry art and Flash animation was made from Seph's images of Anubis. However, he cannot be called a 'fury artist' for sure, since he just takes some excursions into this genre. His works are more related to videogame boys and only five of his works belong to the fur-genre, including only two originals (Anubis, Corsey, Rei, Jean and the never finished animated version of "Muscle Pill").

Garyu closed his pages on FurNation, y!Gallery as well as his subdomain on his private domain, due to people taking his art and spreading it on other pages without permission; he requests that people ask him about uploading his art elsewhere.

His stuff is being uploaded mostly on chans over and over again, causing a lot of trouble. Basically this is the case since users on these sites pretend to respect the rights of the artists, which is not the case in Garyus point of view. In his opinion the internet in not a place where everything online can be taken and used as you want to, even though it is free to view.

Over the last years, Garyu did try several restarts with newer projects. He remade some of his old works - both, pictures and animations - in higher resolution and opened his new main page on inkbunny due to "the better management options", as he stated in one of his FN journals. Garyu also started to sell some of his works for small contributions.

His new works still include a lot of fanservice. Giga Bowser was featured in "Bowsers Bathtime Story" and Lion from "Code Name S.T.E.A.M." was featured in "Lion releasing some Steam". On the other side, Garyu did introduce a whole new original Character as well - a bavarian Lion. All his works still feature the elements he's popular for: well-endowed male characters.

Garyu is publishing his work on rather inkonsequent intervals, resulting in just one or two small things a year. His journals say that's because of a big project he's working on, but so far there are no concrete details about this. Rumours say, it will be a furry related, but SFW, Point'n'Click, featuring prerendered 3D backgrounds and 2D Sprites. Other rumours say it's the remake of his very first flash, Anubis Curse, because there was a teaser image to show a new Anubis in one of his journals, including the statement 'to make up for the blatant copy of Seph's Phallic Wolf back than...''".
