Contents
The Fursona
Blue_Panther's furry alter ego is a panther with both anthropomorphic and quadruped forms. His fur is mostly of a cool blue blending to near white. When asked for reference, the most adequate description is the one of a snow leopard with the beige fur turned to blue. Blue_Panther has a craze for long manes, fluffy fur and tail tufts.
In both forms (as well as in real life), Blue_Panther occasionally wears a spiked black leather collar.
The Artist
Bee_Pee's art is distinctively stylised, with elegant composition and striking themes that work well on large displays. Over the years, he has tried to incorporate his professional skils into his furry artwork with some disputable success. In 2003, he was the designer of the VCL badges 2003 edition.
Participating in various contests and contributions for the German conventions he won the contest to the t-shirts of the Mephit Mini Con 2005 and 2006.
Other international credits include the Stage Backdrop designs for Eurofurence 11 (Songs of the Old Ages), Eurofurence 12 (The Hounds of Blackwhite Castle) and Eurofurence 13 (The Unlucky Thirteen).
The Underscore
Blue_Panther is renowned for being rather fierce about having his full artist's name written correctly. The signature bears a distinctive underscore between the letters "e" and "P". He claims the origins of the underscore in his name to date from his very first email address.
Other Furry Activities
Together with Akeyla and Nautilus he organizes the annual Basel Fur Meet which premiered in November 2004. He also acted as a patron to some minor art roundtable events in both Switzerland and Germany and is one of the organizors behind the swissfurs portal.
As of Eurofurence 13 (2007), he is the acting Assistant Art Show Director after being an Art Show Hand for the previous three conventions.
