Shenlong suit wips

I spent most of the day messing around with TPU and I think I've got the hang of it for the most part *fingers crossed* The next question became how well does it hot glue? The answer to that question is - surprisingly well!

Most plastics are hard to glue, its why a lot of specialty glues exist, yet this stuff takes t...

Concept Design

A local game shop contacted us and wants to commission a giant Dragon Head Trophy they can mount on the wall in their store. I played around with some designs before settling on this one based on all the elements they were interested in. I juuuuust sent off the concept art to them so it'll be a few hours before they see it bu...

Duct Tape Dummy [PDF tutorial]

This is a free guide for all Patrons of our preferred method for making DTDs needed for Fursuits.

Shenlong Wip

Got the ears and horns 3D modeled, just waiting for approval from the customer! Please ignore the back of the ears, my software was being and I didn't feel like fighting it.

The horns are a bit smaller/thinner than I'd like/the ref but there isn't a lot of real estate thanks to those big ears. I might play with them a ...

Shenlong Wip

Got the ears mostly sculpted! I just need to fix up the transition between the headbase and the ears. I really wanted to finish this now but my tablet is at 5% battery so I need to let it charge for a few hours. Once I finish sculpting the ears it will be onto the horns!

Got the mini test print done and once the customer approves it I will 3D model the mold and get it queued for printing. In the meantime I cut out the paws that were appliqued earlier this past week and started the assembly.

Taxes and Fursuits

Hey folks, I apologize for the radio silence but I didn't think taxes would make for particularly interesting content. With my taxes largely completed fingers crossed I'm getting back to work in the studio. To kick things off I 3D modeled the headbase for my next commission; a Dutch Angel Dragon!

Mountain of applique

We did a mountain of appliquing today, which is the process of top stitching minky pawpads onto fur. We also cut all those pawpads out and have begun assembling them into paws. While the chance of us getting a table at FE is almost zero it never hurts to be prepared. Plus uts always a good idea to have stock on hand must in c...

Premade wip

I'm having a bit of a colour conundrum as the colour I'd used for the hair on this premade wasn't quite the shade I remembered, throwing off the entire colour scheme. I've been starting at swatches for literal hours trying to decide what not only looks best but matches the overal vibe I'd wanted to go for. Since I've already ...

Premade wip

All taped up and ready to fur!

March Monthly Bonus - Pawpad Embroidery & Applique Files

Hey folks! As promised we're releasing this month's Monthly Bonus a little early to make up for being late last month! That said, we're trying something a tad different this month by releasing some files for Embroidering and Appliquing Pawpads & Claws. These files have been pre-scaled to work with our Puffy Paw [4 finger...

Angel Dragon 3D model - wip

I meant to share this a little while ago but completely forgot. I've done some work on a new Angel Dragon model, and currently have two versions. I'm still working on them, and trying to narrow down which of the two I like more.

Sockpaw Pics

Got some better pictures of the feetpaws taken!

Sockpaws and other things

We just finished up these sockpaws for an FE pre order. Sadly we are still very much waitlisted, so it is highly unlikely we'll be going. Normally, every year for the con, we make a few premades, and while we won't be attending this year, I still want to make a premade. The only question is which one?

I currently ha...

February Monthly Bonus - Digitigrade Bodysuit [Padding Tutorial]

This took a lot longer to edit than I was hoping, but alas I am done! I do apologize for being late on the delivery, and to make it up to everyone I'll try to get March's Monthly Bonus out early. For March, I intend to release updated versions of either the handpaw pattern and/or sockpaw pattern as I've made some improvements...

Update

Today has been a DAY. I was supposed to finish the patreon tutorial today but instead I spent all day fixing my 3D printer after it had a catastrophic failure while printing a badge for Zion. Since Zion's suit needs to be sent out asap I had to prioritize the printer.

What should have been a simple fix of replacing the...
