OFFICIAL UPDATE (commissioners, please read.)

General
Alright, so this is the long-awaited First Official Update! I hope you all find it useful and informative :D
Firstly, the list of active commissions I have going:
Bella
Essh
Jack
The tweaks-and-fixes list:
Buck Rabbit (needs matching stand-alone tail and fit fixes)
News:
I have assigned a new structure to my work week. From now on, I will be doing fursuit work on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Sundays and Mondays are now officially closed off to fursuit work, as the shop's main building is closed on those days and it is a hassle to arrange entry. (Note: Please confirm with me ahead of time if you are wanting to visit the shop. I can't guarantee I will be able to meet with you every time, because meetings take up a lot of time for me, and also because the store owner does not want excessive visitors in here.)
These journal entries will now be posted every Saturday, since that is the last day before my "weekend" and it will be a week-in-review for you all.
And onto the current status:
Bella: I am still working on your digi leg padding, and making the body pattern. Everything is going smoothly so far, but apologies for the delay. The past week has been bad for me, but that is over now and I'm able again to focus on work. Bella head is being worked on in these areas: neck, back of head closure, airbrushing black and pink, possibly new eyes, new nose! I will also have to re-align your jaw, but that will be last and it MAY involve more fittings. But I'm not sure about that part yet. Bella feet and body are next!
Essh: The new plastic eyes experiment seems to be going well. I'll have to say in my next update whether they worked out 100% though. Essh head is being worked on in these areas: nostrils, neck, back of head closure. I think I will also need to adjust your jaw, it looked like it wasn't properly lined up at Howl. Essh feet and tail are next in line after Bella fullsuit.
Jack: Your tail is looking very zig zaggy, which is a good thing. Because the zigzags take such a long time to sew, I'm alternating between Bella's foam carve and your sewing. I expect it will take quite some time yet to finish the tail, since I am having to remove tinsel from each new bit of dark grey fur I add to the zigzag!
Buck Rabbit: I'll likely be setting aside a chunk of time just after New Years to add the new zippers/snaps/fitting changes to Buck's body. Let's coordinate that and I'll toss in a new tail too :)
Alright, that's all for now. If there's anything else you'd like to see in these updates, leave a comment below! And thank you all for sticking with me!

Thanks Kai. Good to hear these will be coming on a regular schedule. I'll be coming over once when the tail is done and once foam is placed on the balaclava.
