Fandom involvement [ edit ]

Doug regularly played himself as a human character on FurryMUCK, where he often spent time in the Herm Haven (a place whose very existence can be partially credited to him). One of his most famous furry characters, Pandora Pup, is also a regular resident at the Haven -- but she/shi is not played by Doug.

Art style [ edit ]

Though he was best known for the hyper-endowment depicted in most of his drawings, his art also characterized his good humor and attention to detail. Doug was also known for his quick wit and love of word play. The unofficial unit of furry media squickage, the milliWinger, is named after him, as is the term Wingerized.
