Cerberus (A.K.A. Cerberusui, Tirrel) is a Macrofur artist living in Britain who used to run a (mainly) Macrofurry based comic titled Not Big and Not Clever, hosted on Macrophile.com under his user section. He also has a Fur Affinity site for unrelated works, including Flash animations.

Cerberus seems to enjoy exploring the less commonly explored areas of his chosen scene and presenting them in a humorous way. A reoccurring theme in his art is visualizing the frustrations and dangers posed to his single non-giant character as a result of living amongst much larger friends and family. The results of such dangers are often portrayed with horrific and graphic detail, however this is the only extreme trait of his work as he strictly avoids sex and related anatomy.

There's also a recurring theme of futility to Cerberus’ humour. Even though it's always the middle of a bright sunny day in his drawings, the comedy is almost always black. Nikita can't make friends, Snow can't be an adult, Rachel's schemes are always less clever than she imagines, Tetchie despises everything and Cerb gets to suffer physically for all their failings.

The majority of Cerberus’ works are drawn entirely with traditional mediums, namely ‘Sharpie’ markers and colouring pencils. It isn’t clear why he chooses to use such labour intensive methods, but it does give his work a distinct novelty that sets it apart from others. He also enjoys trying out other forms of image making, having produced Flash animations (‘Raiders of the Trash’, 'The Ekkosangen' 'Vex Hates You' and the upcoming ‘The Nut Job’), Sculpey models, textile dolls and cardboard sets.
