Hello hello, long time no see! I've got a fresh coat of paint as JTAG (my little weasel guy!) feels much more like my fursona now. I was hit with a long period of burnout but I am finally getting back on my feet. Expect more casual fursuit making posting from here on out :) (more info in thread!)

I am in the process of shifting my relationship to fursuit making to be more artistic. I am taking my time working on suits now to put as much love and detail into each one as possible. Experimenting and challenging myself has been way more fun for me and I feel far more motivated now.

I lost myself in the process of trying to make suits for other people and to clear a queue for the longest time. When I first got into making suits in 2019, I jumped in a bit too fast, and established my relationship with fursuit making as "I make fursuits for other people".

But fursuits are art. I kind of forgot that, and I forgot that I should be making art for the sake of making art. I *love* looking at unique fursuits with unique features, designs, and styles. It took me so long to realize that... I can do that too. So that's what I'm doing :)

I'm pouring a lot into these next few projects and it feels amazing. Some personal suits, some commissions... and eventually some artist-designed suits (trying to avoid the term "premade"). I found my spark again and it's amazing!

Historically I've been very shy on social media but I am going to try to do more fursuit nerd posting. If you are a fellow fursuit nerd who loves fursuit construction/history/techniques as much as I do... you're in luck :)
