Saying goodbye to your fursuit.
13 years ago
I came to the sad realization the other night that MFF will most likely be the last time I wear my current Jacek fursuit. I try not to be sad about it. By MFF I will have had and worn her (a lot) for a good 4 years now. But the way she was made was far below the work I do now, so she is starting to fall apart a bit. Most of her head was glued together and now sewn like I do with my suits now. I still love and adore this suit, but I know it will be the right time to move on and make Jacek Version 3.
For some reason I have such anxiety about making her. I know that I do better work now and that I am sure it will turn out wonderful...but there is just a nagging part of me that worries. I like this suit so much, will I really be able to make another that I will like just as much if not more? I'm sure it will be fine..I'm just not sure what all I want to change at the moment. I think I will keep Jacek Version 2 around still after the next is done. As long as she is not completely falling appart and looks decent, I can use her for things like Charity events where I know I will be getting dirty and whatnot. Anyways, that's what is going on in my head. Hope everyone is well!

FA+

It's not always easy but in the end it will be awesome, I'm sure!
And yeah she is still in decent condition. I just got her body out of the wash and now drying it and even that isn't too bad (even with the abuse she got from ZooBoo XP)) but I think I just need the change. She will be good enough for events now and again like I said, but she isn't where my skill is anymore.
