Mephit Furmeet is quickly coming up and after missing last year due to caring for my Mom and being there while she passed away, I'm going to be there back in the den. It's gonna be a very hard weekend and month but one step at a time :)

Finished Burr's neat handpaws (brand new pattern!) and bodysuit last week, so that just leaves the head :)

Still working on Burr's bodysuit, hands, and spare tail :) The bodysuit is mostly to the finish work stage so that's exciting!

Zippers are fussy but it's very gratifying when they hide so well :) I always do my zippers on the front for safety and ease of getting suited up.

Finished patterning Burr's body last week and got all the pieces cut out! Today was sewing some of the smaller stuff and blasting any creases with the blow dryer since that is much easier to do at this stage.

I'm at my first Anthrocon! I am also be in the dealers den so swing on by later today when it opens :) I still have some setting up to do so booth pictures later. This is my first flying-in con and 8ft table so there was a lot of changes/ updates required and I look forward to iterating more.

I'm back! I was in a lot of pain, had a cancer scare, and had a major surgery done to fix me up 😅 Its been a wild ride. I'm 6 wks post-OP and won't be 100% for awhile but I'm doing the best I can. Clients were kept up to date privately :) These are feet I finished for Burr last week!

Please say hello to Max for #fursuitfriday!!! He is a digitigrade fullsuit, but didn't have a suitable model for full pictures so those will have to wait until he arrives to his home :) #fursuitmaker #fursuit

Bear feet! Not glued down or done by any means, just fur loosely on them to make sure the fit was right. #fursuit #fursuitmaker

Here's the full finished cute puppy Reese for fursuits Friday!!! #fursuit #fursuitfriday #fursuitmaker

The difference taking your time to brush out seams more, carefully shave over everything again and do detailing. I don't use a guard or anything. I do preshave stuff but nothing beats doing that last step for me :) #fursuit #fursuitmaker

Sorry about being a trashcan about updating socials! I am much better about using my telegram channel 😅 I had a really rough time there for a few months after my Mom passed with the holidays right after but I'm back at it! Very important testing happening over here. #fursuit #fursuitmaker

I was offered a spot off the wait-list for ACFI a little bit back while everything was going down so I'm here! I have been juggling a lot and only got home about 2 weeks ago from my late Mom's so still working on getting back at it. Please swing by and say hi if you are attending :)

Sorry for the lack of public queue updates. My Mom was diagnosed with lung cancer in late May/ early June and passed away last week. I have been here for weeks helping with her hospice care. I'm grieving and it all just sucks. This is my Mom (PandaMom) and I at her last Mephit Fur Meet.

I am late posting this but I'm at Texas Furry Siesta! Come say hi and pet some lil critters!!

I've been a lot better about posting to my telegr@m channel than regular social media whoops! Been working on several things like currently sewing 2 client heads :) Here's a super pretty nightfury OC tail I shipped out last month. #fursuitmaker #fursuit

Been working away in the background on Max and Reese and I'll have some more to show of them later this week! This weekend I was working on some fins for a unique tail :) My first and a fun experiment - they are lightly padded! #fursuit #fursuitmaker

Battle bird! One of my anjou riding one of Caribou's tatzl kittens. TFF was a whirlwind and I'm so tired. I almost was completely sold out after Fri/ Sat in the AA other than my Doof art dolls and the gemsbok premade. I'm so thankful for everyone - this is the one big con I do a year.

I'm in the TFF AA and it's been insane! I'm over across from the FurScience table and will be in the same spot tomorrow. I probably will not set up Sunday. I still have several art dolls plus the gems bok and lion premades available :)

Taking some family photos before heading to TFF tomorrow! These are the OOAK zwoop art dolls I'll have at my AA table :) #artdoll

Project catch up - An art liberty paw and tail set for one of the werewolves I sold at AnEx. Client suggested the orange and it was a fun addition! It was grey and raining the days after I finished them so I gave up getting outdoor pictures and sent them to their home :) #fursuit #fursuitmaker

Kæda reached out to see if I could make a moehawk work with his head and that sounded like a neat challenge. I removed the velcro and added many magnets. I updated his existing hair but also made new faux fur and "hair" style hawks. Learned some things! Appreciate the trust :) #fursuitmaker

Here are teasers - a pile of doofs and the 3 weird noodle art dolls I'll have at my TFF AA table that I worked on this weekend :) I need to spend the rest of my week doing my taxes and finishing up my TFF oddbobs so I don't go crazy but I'm excited for the con! #artdoll

Max and Reese tails! I make a new pattern for every tail because I'm a little bit crazy but also because every dummy has a different proportions so what might suit one might be too big for another. The eyeballs are in the smoothing chamber and I'm still waiting to see how that goes 😅 #fursuit

Little reminder to make sure you have adequate venting for your work! I have a inline fan w/ a carbon filter going outside that I can hook up to my printer or a tent for resin/ glue/ etc. Using an upgraded plastic for 3D eyes - going to be able to vapor smooth for a better finish and I'm excited!

Time to post more of my art dolls - these are zwoops! They are strange noodles but very much friend shaped :) They have moving jaws which what I wanted to experiment with them. These two found homes at AnEx, but I plan to have a few new faces at TFF! #artdolls

Patterned, cut out, and clipped a werewolf tail yesterday when my hands needed a change of movement :)

Dressing a dummy in a fursuit is always a workout! Was being picky checking Reese's bodysuit fit again. Gonna start carving Max and Reece's heads Wednesday and I'm so ready! Heads are my favorite part so I save them for last :) #fursuit #fursuitbuider

I had been getting into art dolls and finally unveiled my menagerie at AnthroExpo! These were my first - they are "Anjou"! They are dumb little pear shaped guys but really like you :) I learned so much making them! Their spines are ball and socket armature and the feet are wired for stablity.

A pile of indoor and outdoor pawbs! 🐾 #fursuit #fursuitmaker
