instead of shitty phonecam pictures XD
But I cracked out the airbrush the last couple of days and all that's left for Moby is to put the ears on the head, finish whiskers on one side of his muzzle, and finish up the feet. at my current work pace, he might be ready for shipping on tuesday... or wednesday....I'm... Not actually sure how to gauge my pace right now still, though I AM able to do just about everything for suitwork again*cheers* I just gotta be ~gentle~ with my left hand still. Hurts when I whack it, or put too much pressure on it, but it looks like the cut has actually mended up pretty well :3
NEOSPORIN IS A MIRACLE DRUG, AND I PROBABLY BUTCHERED THAT SPELLING, BUT IT'S 5:30AM AND IDGAF RIGHT NOW :D
derp
But yeah, we're making a store run this afternoon to pick up a couple pairs of shoes for upcoming projects and some other stuff. Gotta double check how many feet I'ma be making in the next 3 months XD And it turns out some of the fur ordered for one of the suits upcoming was totally the wrong color(the right one's already been re-ordered and arrived) but it's the perfect color for another of my personal project suit idea thingies, and... I SOOOOO wanna make it.
But...
Commissions D: specially majorly backed up commissions :T
I'm going to be busting my freakin tail this month and next month. I'ma try and keep updating here every couple of days, even if it's just a silly journal to say I'm still alive, but....I've got....7 1/2 kinda-really-detailed suits coming up in the next month and a half.... I know there's specific deadlines for some of them, and I'm gonna try my damndest to make them ALL, but...again, this 2 weeks ish of gimped-working has more than destroyed any of my 'emergency days' for suit catch up, and put me deep in the red, time wise <:C
As a new maker, I really hate to ask this, but if you have a suit that's scheduled to be finished this month or next month, and wouldn't be upset about an extra week or two extention on the completion time (so basically, middle of the following month instead of the end of the completion month) , please let me know <:3 It... Honestly, it would be a huge stress off my mind to know that I'll have a little more time to actually put all the details and care into each suit that they deserve instead of worrying too hard about getting it done exactly on time and having to rush work. Again, if a hard date for when a suit is needed has already been talked about I WILL MAKE THOSE DATES, but for those that were just general 'end of the month' deadlines, a little bit of possible leeway would be so freaking amazing you don't even know.
I will still be trying to get all the suits done as close to the original deadline times as I can, and I'll be enlisting Narco's help with a lot of the simple busy sewing work (since she's kind of becoming my apprentice durring her no-job time. I'm having her make a couple suits with my help, then a couple on her own that'll all be up for auction over the next couple of months) before I unleash her on her own for commissions and stuff, but she's been doing some amazing work already, and been a great help the last couple weeks.
I'm sorry about this whole fiasco with my hand, but, I'm not gonna lie, I follow livejounral and the fursuit reviews, and I don't ever want to end up on there over something stupid like this. Yeah, life happens sometimes and all, but at the same time, I know this is a business, so even stuff like this isn't always acceptable as an excuse to fall behind. I'm probably just gonna take this all as a rocky start and a learning experiance *gonna extend the work time I've got for suits from 3 months to more like...5 or 6 on partials and up, and bump my per month back down to 3 slots for big work.*
but.. now I'm just rambling. cause it's the asscrack of dawn... and I realize I've taken almost a half hour to type this out XD
fuck
ah well.

In other news, the hot glue gun still has it out for me and tried to hate-snog my hand, but I used Evade. It was super effective.

Good luck getting those suits done. You can do it!
Thanks so much for the advice :3
any later than that and i cant guarantee him i can get the head done for him, then hes stuck with a partial with no head.
Sorry for the stress but thats the best i can offer when it comes to helping out out on time =(
After this order when you reopen, im going to get commission willing to wait up to 6 months. So if it happens again, no worries.
I'm still waiting on the hair for your gal to arrive anyway, so she'll be at a standstill for a bit either way, but this is a huge help.
How's the moving been going, btw? Settled into the new appartment? :3
Good to hear that Moby is almost done, though - I can't wait to see him when he's done! =3
I hope to have it here for my birthday but if it can't be then your health is more important anyways.
Yeah, my puppy face is pretty simple. I don't like overly complicated designs. :I
Also, how long is my tail? :3
