LLX's Guide to Gijinka
Gijinka, or the act of creating human versions of Digimon. I love Digimon art as as you might have gathered from this site, and have seen many Gijinka. This guide is based on the 3 variants of Gijinka I have noticed. You see in my studies I've noticed there's are 3 types of Gijinka, and I figured this little FAQ might make it easier for those of you who like Gijinka as much as I do to have some one of telling the 3 forms apart by introducing classifications.
The 3 levels of Gijinka
Level 1 Lite: Humon - This level is best described as "what if that Digimon was human" Examples; are Megchan's Gijinka, and IK's Gijinka Elecmon, See Figures 1.1 through 1.7, There about 90-100% human, With maybe only a few Digimon characteristics.

Level 2 Medium: Furre - This level refer to Gijinka that look like a humon but have more serious alterations becase the source Digimon has some unique trait. Examples; include Gomamon Gijinkas with Gomma's claws the same.
Level 3 High: Anthromorph - This Gijinka takes the bone structure of a Digimon and replace it with a humans bone structure without altering any other attribute. Example; include, Pink Mimi's Gijinkas.
