Flood and whats next for Me
11 years ago
Well yesterday was intense.
At work sometime between midnite and 1am 2 fire subression lines broke at our main mall enterance.
This flooded the whole wing. If you have ever been down to my store that's a lot of WATER!
We didn't open yesterday till 1pm
The hallway is still closed and being cleaned
Panera was damaged beyond a point they now are having new carpet and tile laid.
American girl is having new carpet in and poor barnes n noble they lost a lot of product tho they hope to open today.
What a roller coaster. several stores affected including mine. Luckly today we are open and ready to go but cant say the same for other stores. =/
Crazy crazy
On another note, Milo the suit ive been repair is on to a new maker to help with the eyes?
Her friend didn't seem to like how I installed the eyes so I mailed it to her. =/
I know I don't have a lot of experience but the head, to me in the 3 days, thought I did pretty good. Oh well...cant please teens sometimes I guess.
Tho with these last 2 heads that I have repaired and finished, it got me thinking. A lot of people are starting to come to me and wanting me to fix up their heads. Some from poor makers, some first time heads that they want fixed, and so on....So I think that's a good start for me to work on heads. I am not a good sculpture but I know how to sew and do line work. ^_^ Maybe this is a good thing.
Next on the list for finishing/repairing is Prismapaws head and tail set
New commission for Loki
No deadlines set so I don't have to rush like I did wiggles suit in 3 days! so this will be a great learning curve. And for help I can always go to SheKing a local suit builder for any help!
I am also going to experiment with fursuit shorts. They aren't a normal everyday wear, these are for personal fun times. I am making a pair for my boyfriend for a prototype and if they come out well, we will go from there. Not saying much on them as they aren't family friendly, feel free to message me if you might be interested in knowing more information. ^-^

Well- I guess that's 13 year olds for you. They think they know best when they really don't :/
The store will survive but nothing we can do about it, we were shut down again today been about an hour and half so far....still waiting for water.
You do a great job fixing suits for people! Honestly I think the eyes on Milo look well done. The only think I'd ask to be redone is the black lining around the eyes, they do appear to be uneven. ;u; But the eyes themselves are darling and compliment the character's face!
Like you said you were on a big time crunch and you can't rush art. If you had more time you'd be able to take your time with it and fix anything the customer didn't like.
They should've just ask you to fix something than give it to a friend that claims they know what they're doing.
Good job nonetheless, I agree it is indeed a good sign that people are coming to you for help!
