Like many others, I am happy that Jimmy Kimmel we be back tomorrow. But I am also proceeding with caution. I don’t know what the terms are with ABC if any, but until I see his monologue I won’t be convinced that there hasn’t been an agreement that will change the integrity of his show in compromise…

If you are couching being ace, or producing exclusively SFW art and products in the rise in censorship 'not mattering to you'- you are missing the point entirely. It isnt about the specific content -its about control- just like it is with everything else.

Im gonna need some time coming up after this season to just veg and do premades and r&d. Im ok rn but I catch burnout creeping around some mornings and I know when I need to get ahead of it. ... i also need some time to redo my back patio... I have to diy it and thats gonna be kindof hellish.

Knights of Gwenevere watched and ah... ooh, timely critique of the mouse industrial complex. I hope there will be more eps.

And some vanity shots.

Time now for some lion demo vids! The main and tufts on this project are all natfitech.

This is all he said.

More of this.

Putting together a plan here...

Oh my god I was able to reach someone about why generative AI is an ethical problem tonite and I am so happy. She even on her own made the connection between whats going on with that tech and the similarities to both cults, and predatory weight loss fads. So proud of her.

I gutted all my battery powered pumpkins and set them up to take an outdoor string light. It's one of the r g b ones that I can control the lights individually so I was able to go in and pick out settings that resulted in a candle flicker in the colors I wanted. Lilly helped.

So whats my deal? Im a mask and costume artist and my background mostly comes from LARP. My half-face 'larp masks are the heart of my ideal type of build for active demanding environments. All flexible materials, easy-on easy-off, no latex content and easy to clean.

A little late setting up this year just due to everything but setting up none the less.

Ok one more thing one more thing- the paws. They are oversized feral style and the client asked for no claws, just the slits so they are SO round and SO soft and SO fluffy. Like come on. The slits were done with a small strip of sheared darker fabric placed in there and a little paint.

I haven't seen Alien earth as yet cause I think something happens to a cat and I cant deal with that fact but somebody just talked about 'Eye-chan' and 'Xeno-Kun' so I assume its going fine otherwise.

Her highness. 14 and still the shop boss.

WHEW. Ok. Shots got. Lion painted. House clean. Productive day.

Armani noooo!

GONNA PAINT ME A LION TODAY. Yeahman.

I havent been sick in a few years because ive stayed on top of my yearly regular flu thing and whatever covid booster has been available. Co and a few other states are making it so I can keep it that way.

Spent my weekend figuring out where this empties out since it was absolutely overflowing onto my foundation during the most recent downpour. Figured it out went in, put in a drain pan of sorts and relandscaped the corner. Then ate sketty and passed out.

'How are they going to weed out the AI stuff?' If Dragon con, a massive convention, can manage it. Lookin at you @fanexpodenver.bsky.social

Look at this really cute picture of me from yesterday!

'You remind me of the babe.' Starting to come together. I'm just now doing the tackdowns and getting the mane on here so of course, it's going to have bed head through this process.

Just giving everybody the idea of the sheer volume possible of a completely natfitech lion mane. The length on this is also an oversized cut per client request. It's just absolutely massive.

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.” Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment. No questions asked. No proof required. Pass it on.

Its not good to relate to any given character in Bojack Horseman. Loved the series but my god it is a story about a bunch of very messy and toxic people. That said, there is an episode that is just one long monologue that culminates -

Once, Sesame Street was a lifeline for indie animators. It offered money and incredible freedom to create. This built an indie animation boom that powered MTV, Nickelodeon and much more. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-golden...

Yeah I think im gonna go ahead and ask for this moving forward. I'll only need one (unless you are just someone who has a very very non unilaterally symmetrical condition, don't worry, I got you even then.) Annnnd... yeah I just think the gloves will be better. Thx!

Did you know I have a Ko-fi where I post all my WIPs and sketches? I even post full comic page lay outs for Goats and Ghouls! You can become a member for just $1 a month and see it all! ko-fi.com/hkluterman #art #kofi #furry #furryart

Ghost came thru denver a little bit ago and one of my goat masks got them a baloon about it! (6:22) www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7sa...

The higher profile someone is, the more they should be held accountable for using AI to promote themselves. Theres enough content creators, artists, performers who are for certain leaning on their clout to not be called out about it and its gross. 'I was in a rush and am broke' -isnt valid-

Making plans... these asters are blooming too soon, in my yard, they tend to Bloom around Halloween. But I'll pinch the flowers off, and they may come back in october. And if not this year then next. Im dividing some existing ones later.

Ok last item for today. Whew.

Happy friday! Heres a jawtest on a fox from a bit back.

Peach and tomato with burrata, basil and basalmic glaze. I grew the tomatos and basil. Bad week... good food tho.

I was informed my father has died. I didn't have a relationship with him and that ship had sailed a long time ago. A decent human... less great father, still a thing I am going to need a bit of time to process. There will be some form of schedule disruption due to this but I will keep it minimized.

Have another photo! I was totally soaked by the time I left...the weather is pretty bad for suiting. Got a fix some things to make it easier to wear the whole get up. Mask by @magpiebones.bsky.social

Would people be willing and able to send me duct tape dummies of their arms for gloves? Like I know it's standard practice to ask for them for feet and legs, but I feel like i could make better gloves with arm dtds too. Don't gotta do the fingers or even the hand because tracings-

This is the only version of this song that I require now.

Myeh.
