I have made a few hundred fursuits Since 2008 but of them I have only made 4 bunnies (that is about to change tho 😜)

Took most my life to realize I was raised by a covert narcissist and now I'm shouldered with them being geriatric and living with me as their caretaker. This person who claims to be the most caring and patient person ever has in fact been thee most upsetting and demeaning person in my entire life.

Just in time for Halloween I have finished up something that's, uh, a lil bit creepy (and maybe also a little bit cute?) #fursuit #fursuitmaker #cryptid

"You are what you eat" sometimes gets taken very literally in my workshop

Jinx enjoying what we call her "free sunbeam hour" where she can sun herself without leaving the comfort of her usual roost. (why is her name Jinx? "no more cats unless they show up at the front door" GEE GUESS WHAT HAPPENED)

Up next on the work table is... uhh

I don't really consider any of my pieces to be "fully realistic" but I think these are good examples of how close to the real thing I can manage

I have made only 3 raccoons in all my 17 years of doing this as a career, and each one sure came out different

well the client duct tape dummy I need is still running late, so time for another premade! (*randomly adds matching fancy orange watermelon to the photo since I need to do something to help justify what I paid for the darn thing)

I've not talked about it because I'm trying to keep this place not sad... But my cat Rebel may be terminally ill, he became unwell quite quickly, lab work shows no explanation so the vet thinks it is cancer... I keep hoping he'll get over whatever it is, but it's been over a week so I fear the worst

LOOKING TO BUY! This bright-orange mango creamsicle beaver fur that Fursuit Supplies used to carry eons ago. Even hand-sized scraps are helpful but bigger pieces would be nice and so I am willing to pay $100 for a full yard, $50 for half a yard, $25 for a quarter yard

*cough cough* can someone please hire me for a "blue tiger" quadsuit *cough cough* it's a cosplay I would have made for my sister if she and I were not retired from cons so I could offer a smidgen of disssscouuunt ;p

An artistic liberty commission with the following criteria given to me by the client: A maned wolf colored like a silver marbled fox, real/semi real art style, feminine, with a worried expression. I am open for art lib work all year, just give me a prompt and see what I come up with :)

some people have some actual "big" plans for the future, like travel to another country, that kind of thing... ...meanwhile my biggest plan for the future is to plant some springtime serotonin this fall (daffodils)

Just need to share pics of my kenku cosplay for FanX 2025! I wore it for the first time ever yesterday and did it again today. Wayyy happy with how it came out. Am bird!! Kenku head crafted by the excellent @thebeastcub.bsky.social !

My anteater from 2011 spotted in the wild, still out and about 14 years later!

A planned premade fursuit to be done sometime over the next year, all premades will be sold via auction as partials with no option for a fullsuit upgrade BUT if you are seeing this now and want it then you can pre-claim it as a fullsuit. These furs are planned for a Spring Flower Fox

I absolutely LOVE the semi-official Zelda mangas by Akira Himekawa and they way they expanded upon the stories of the games, and well now they are finally making something fully original, and I can't wait to read it aaaaa already preordered my copy of Kamudo

showcasing some of my skeletal creations to try and summon spooky season to come early (can summer just end already)

The creator of The Owl House has been UNLEASHED and made a show on her terms with an indie studio. If you loved The Owl House and know anything about how the production of The Owl House was treated by Disney in the end I IMPLORE you to please watch this

A grouping of times that I have made fabric feathers that I consider to be "semi-real" specifically cases where no real feathers were used. All done in sport neoprene and hand painted with fabric paints.

supposedly it is not uncommon for once seemingly nice parents to become downright mean in old age, but the way my mother treats me is getting really hard to cope with...

I like playing around with marbled/pinto/piebald markings and the way it affects not just the coat color but the skin and keratin too (art lib partial in the works!)

2 of my scaliest kids in 1 shot !

This started as an "extinct griffin" but then, when we were halfway settled on a Teratornis for the bird half, the client said "well I like bearded vultures a whole lot" which I was not gonna argue against a bearded vulture since I've been wanting to make one lol, so bearded sabertooth it was then!

This tail is made of insanity, insanity, fur, stuffing, and a pool toy. The tail has a inflatable pool noodle in 80% of it, so it's light enough to be upright, and it *almost* didn't even need that clear strap, because the strap is not there to hold it up it's just to keep it centered :p

Flashback to when I found this faux fur coat online and then bought one to murder into a fursuit (the sleeves were so big they became the legs lol)

things that I have made as a fursuit maker that I am not quite sure count as fursuits?

Video time so you can see her flippy flaps and big boppin tail in action! Which version of her do you prefer? Her older stoic self with the big horns? Or her younger energetic self with the big hair?

From my "creature designs I need clients for" page on my website www.beastcub.com/fur someone FINALLY claimed the seamist fur!!! She started as a sea dragon but along the way her arms-n-hands got swapped out for flippers and we dubbed her an ocean dwelling wyvern instead #fursuit #fursuitmaker

As amazing as big swishy tails are, they are a little bit of a commitment to wear, so here is an easier to wear nub tail for when they wear the suit as a partial, there was not room for 20+ furs at 1/4 the length so it was interesting making something that captured the look since it could not be 1:1

A video of this critter in action because you simply must see how wiggly his ears are ♥️ (and see the miracle that is how I somehow manged to get a moving jaw on this kind of head frame 😵 Also includes some WIP images) #fursuit #fursuitmaker

A classic is up for adoption by its current owner (it's over ten years old, hoooOOOooow has it been that long... actually never mind, I believe it, this was before the edges of my floor tiles started peeling up [lmao I don't have the time or money to fix them so I just put tape over the edges 🥲)

Here is that thing I was working on btw. And no seriously, this is one of those projects where I take it on questioning my muse on if she can actually pull it off properly and then it somehow falls out of my brain through my fingertips.

Politely waiting for a talking parcel. 📸 @catcalhoun.bsky.social 🐉Me and @maggiekigs.bsky.social

It's that are time of year again where I quote all custom costume designs and then pick a few for the queue :) Do please let me know upfront if you are ready to commit or just looking, and please include what you want in the email title (ex "realistic griffin partial")

Flashback to 2015 when I made a whole family of "Jumble Dragons"

Thank you to my lovely suit family for showing up and grabbing everyone we could recognize!!! I love these guys so much 💚 - 🪡 @thebeastcub.bsky.social

Of all the artistic liberty orders I have done (open year round btw) this might be the most insane one, especially since it started off as a combo of 5 species, but then I just kept getting ideas and my muse did not ding dang care if the project went over budget <w<;;;

Henlo, welcome to Santa Fe! Here be dergs! 🧵: @thebeastcub.bsky.social 📷: @cowboycoyote.online #FursuitFriday #fursuit #quadsuit #dragon #dragons #dragonsona

Someone please hire me for a "poodling debate" fursuit! By that I mean a poodle partial where the skin of the face is color matched to your exposed skin! Please I so wanna make it but I don't do events anymore so it'd be useless for myself, and I need to color match so it can't be a premade :P

I hate to admit it but I seem to have gone from just a hermitted homebody to being full blown agoraphobic...

Sooo, my queue is down to 4 (if none of my MIA clients show up) and after that I am gonna take a crack at premades for a while and just hope they sell??? Like, it seems like a BAD time to be finally doing all the premades I wanna do, but with how my joints have been I also feel very now or never >:p

What species of fursuit is the most rare? Maybe fish? Been at this since 2008 and I have only ever made 2 fish that were actual fish and not a hybrid creature or a fantasy critter, and even then the seahorse is a premade, the eel is the only fish I have ever been hired to make.

These all use the same head base from @dvcreations.bsky.social just showing how different a head base can look depending on how it is used, with only Orion having any modifications made to the base itself (modded to fit bigger eyes, sculpted over the corners of the mouth) #fursuitmaker

FUR NEEDED: any amount of this fur would helpful but I would be so esthetic if someone had a full yard to sell me
