ConFuzzled thoughts

The Dragon Meet was great fun! So many Dragons aaaa! I then found the Spyromobile (📷 @kemonologue.bsky.social), caught a Vengabus conga line, and now I need a shower and food after about 5 hours as Dragon in this heat! (Any vids of that conga line about, let me know!)

I found Sudo at #CFz2026! Hope his new owner has loads of fun being a shiny dragon.

Reminder: Sudo is in the #CFz2026 Art Show! I'd love to see him raise a load of money for charity, so please spread the word and bid!

First fursuiter pic of the con...and he just turned up to the whisky-room party I'm currently in too about an hour after I snapped this outside! How do I do coincidence so well?? @statik.bsky.social

Shiny dragons have arrived at #CFz2026

I’m at Confuzzled 2026 #cfz26 and have brand spanking new mini partial puppers available here for sale and at convention collection. Please note payment must be made in full for you to be able to collect, I cannot do a payment plan in this instance.

Almost ConFuzzled time! You can find me wearing Farley the husky, or NyFi the nylon dragon. If you'd like a hug, or even just curious to see what the nylon feels like, don't be afraid to ask! Also happy to talk about fursuit building and sewing. And paws. Lots of paws. Photo: @bouncy.derg.fun

Had a few days off work before ConFuzzled, so I challenged myself to make a pair of feetpaws with dedicated time available (rather than the odd evening/weekends to work on them). They took 10 hours in total, and I love how they turned out. I used taffeta nylon for the pawpads - they are so smooth!

Ten years ago, @volf.bsky.social designed a dragon character named Fi. He became my first fursuit building project, which I completed just in time for ConFuzzled 2016. It was so much fun to unveil him; I am proud of what me and Volf achieved, and I'm happy it encouraged me to continue making suits.

Reminder: This shiny nylon dragon partial will be in the ConFuzzled Art Show/auction! Starting bid is just £1, and 100% is going to charity. I don't make suits very often, so this is an opportunity to own this unique nylon critter and have some fun being shiny!

Its my crew! Nice to get the shiny family together.

I was curious what Sudo looked like as a fullsuit, so he borrowed NyFi's body for a bit. #FursuitFriday

"Why do you like public fursuiting so much?" *Point* #FursuitFriday

Volf modelled the suit for me, so I could get a few photos of some poses. Which one is your favourite?

Sudo's head features a rear zipper - it means he's easy to put on, whilst maintaining a close and comfortable fit. Also, look how soft and plush the inside of his paws are! Everything is lightweight and super squishy, as a soft nylon dragon should be. #fursuitfriday

Introducing Sudo, the shiny nylon dragon! This partial suit consists of head, tail, plush hand mitts, indoor feetpaws, and a personalised bandana. He will be my submission for the ConFuzzled Art Show this year. I'm very proud of how this suit turned out, and I hope he generates some interest!

It's my ✨birthday✨ and the best present would be a share of my work 💜 taking the afternoon off to watch Project Hail Mary and go out for ramen! #furry #fursuit #fursuitmaker

Took Jupiter for a walk round Aylesbury today!

Had a good time at @berkshirefurs.org.uk last weekend. Here @piter.bsky.social looking amazing in his fullsuit upgrade! Photo: sammypup ##fursuitfriday

My mom passed away a few months ago and I have not been able to afford the funeral costs as I am disabled and unemployed. My brother passed away just 6 months before that. Please donate to help me cover the costs, and repost if you can - www.gofundme.com/f/help-cover...

Finished some nice shiny nylon hand and feetpaws! These are very plush, padded, and super soft on the inside.

Flynn is never *not* going to pose for the camera. It’s just how he is! #FursuitFriday 🐺: @whootwolf.bsky.social

Finished a pair of plush shiny nylon handpaws - these will be part of the dragon partial I am working on. Definitely some big bappers!

If you've ever thought about giving sewing a try, I'd definitely say go for it! I never thought I'd end up making things like these two critters, but I really love what I do, and hope it inspires others to try. Photo by CFz Photography Team. #fursuitfriday

www.justgiving.com/page/volfwal... Here we go again! Plan to walk 4 miles through Wendover woods in aid for Florence Nightingale Hospice charity. Last time I walked this, was back in 2022 with a grand total of £770 raised. There's no set date yet, so plenty of time.

Little video I made back when I completed Zorr's new 3-claw dragon paws. I modelled the shape of the paws in Blender and UV unwrapped to make the pattern - its a really effective way to visualise what a 3D object would look like when flattened out, and a great tool for pattern making.

Go on, put it on; I know you want to...

Started making the neck, and I think he's looking pretty cute already! Needs horns, ears, and everything gluing in place, but happy with progress.

Can you still say it’s a #FursuitFriday post if neither of us is wearing a “fur”suit?? Well, I guess that’s food fur thought…… (I’m sorry, I had to) #NFC2026 with @snowywolf.bsky.social

I've created a Telegram channel to show more regular updates and WIP photos of the projects I am working on. I'll still post major milestones here, but the channel might be of interest for people who want more of an insight into my workflow, and see how it all comes together. t.me/+BiqhN90P6Fo...

@ Warwickshire Pride last August with @statik.bsky.social 📷 @volf.bsky.social #FursuitFriday

More progress - he's coming together pretty quickly!

Snoot!

Working on the tape pattern

WIP: added the lining for the jaw and eyes. This makes the inside of the head nice and tidy, with no bits of foam showing. Onto patterning next!

Dragons at Scotiacon. Photo: @doveux.bsky.social

Didn’t get that many photos during @scotiacon.bsky.social , but have @statik.bsky.social Zorr, Whisky and @volf.bsky.social for #fursuitfriday (And the busiest the dance floor has ever been) #fursuit #furry

How to find me at NFC ✅ Come say hi ✅ Ask for hugs ✅ Invite me to things ❌ Ask if I’m inflatable (He’s not he’s stuffed) ❌ Approach with sharp objects ❌ Feel my suit without asking (unless you know me uwu, then feel away)

This is what a dragon looks like after you get home from a convention and start unpacking.

It seems Knutsford Services is the preferred stop for people heading home from #scotiacon - we met so many furries there!

Taking the nylon dragons for a wander round #Scotiacon shortly - come find us round the lobby!

I'm at Scotiacon! #fursuitfriday Photo: @volf.bsky.social

Going through old photos - this was the process of making my first nylon dragon paws, from patterning to creation.

Well, that's my Dry January over. A few things I found from a month without alcohol: - I slept better and felt more refreshed in the morning - Cravings for alcohol went away after about 3 weeks - I didn't lose any weight - Non-alcoholic prosecco is shite - VRChat is less fun when sober

Scotiacon is just a week away - getting excited! Who will I see there? Don't be afraid to ask for some puffy nylon dragon hugs! #fursuitfriday
