I prefer the Flame mane and the Backwards Mohawk mane for my canines and when I do make a feline just for the fun of it, I like the Center Half mane and the Center Full manes.
I can't say I'm a big fan of manes to be honest xD The only definite time I'll use a mane will be if I'm creating a male cat character for a RP in which case I'll use either side half mane, or occasionally, center half mane. For canines I rarely use manes, but on the odd occasion I'll give my male chars the large mohawk but I wouldn't say I use it often really. My female wolf, cat, lion etc chars usually have no mane at all cx

Agreed, I tend to stick with maneless for my realistic characters, and add a mane and some tufts to give my semi-reals some personality.
