Making a fursona isn't hard at all Ms. Hackers. Generally, a fursona can also be considered you in a way since most fursonas I've experienced bestows traits of their puppeteer, to put it simply. Yet they can either be enhanced, degraded, whichever you see fit. A fursona can be of any species, possess any personality, and the color schemes are endless. Yes, it will take time as making one means you are mostly dedicated to that one character and views it as your favorite out of all the others you may have. One of your already made characters that you've kept for a long time and has a fond liking to can also become your fursona.

Ehheh, hopefully I'm making sense here. If not, then merely inform me Ms. and my apologies for the misunderstanding.

There isn't any wrong or right way of making a fursona from my experience. Your fursona can be as unique and individual as you are.
But I can offer some tips just to help you along if you like. :) They are things that I thought about when making my fursona.

Think about things that reflect you. Like what species do you like the most, or think represent you? Maybe you could go by spirit animals if you're into that sort of thing.
Think about colours - what's your favourite colour? Is there a colour that's a good representation of your personality?Like, if you had a fiery personality with a bit of a sort temper, you might use some shade of red on your character.
Depending on if you want for fursona to have a realistic, semi-realisitc or unrealistic look, you might want to think about the sort of markings they'll have. If it's going to be realistic you might want natural looking markings specific to your chosen species. A semi-realistic fursona might have natural markings with perhaps one or two unrealistic markings, such as spirals or symbols. An unrealistic fursona could be absolutely anything, maybe looking like it's been splashed with paint. If you choose to use symbols, you could use symbols that represent you. Perhaps the symbol of your zodiac sign? Or maybe a peace symbol if you or your character has a peaceful, non-violent personality. For me, symbolism played a large part in my fursona's appearance.

That's all the advice I can give. :) I hope it helps you.

I know, about the part, that it comes for what character you like, and my apologies for not writting that in the first place, sir.
Anyways, I love anything, well not everything, but everything. o3o
Well I like the colour of the sky, all the animals. I do know how to creat one, but fear that i'll dislike it..... ;-;

Ehheh, ah I see. Pardon my false perception ma'am.

If ye' end up disliking your fursona once you create it, you can always modify him/her to better suit your satisfaction. Ye' don't have to keep them exact until the end of time. It's your character after all.

Then perhaps your fursona can be a shape-shifter? Possess the ability of morphing into any animal they so desire.
If your favorite color is sky-blue, then perhaps that can be a color your fursona bestows via the eyes, a marking, the pelt color, etc. Again, ze' possibilities are quite endless.

Yes, exactly what Vespian said.
If you don't like the look of it the first time you can always change it. xD Change it however many times you like. You could even make multiple fursonas if you wanted and just alternate between them as you see fit. I once had three versions of my fursona; a wolf, a cat and a fox. Then I decided I just wanted one character, so I made my fursona a wolf with some cat heritage. :)
There's nothing stopping you from doing the same.

Ehheh, neither Ms. Ye' don't have to repay the favor at all. I'm merely glad I could shed some light onto ye' about your fursona.
I wish you luck. I'm sure your new character will turn out quite favorable.
