Hi all,

I'm happy to report that starting back to school this semester went better than I thought it was going to go. Hopefully this semester I'll be able to do better than last fall. Though as always I'll take it a step at a time. This semester should be fun though. I'm going to be creating my own typeface among other things and learning some new tricks in photoshop.
So that's good, then what I had learned last Spring'll help me do better in future classes. I can only imagine how quickly the coloring Line art section'll go for me now :)

Speaking of class about a week ago I attended my first sewing class at Joanns. It went well and I learned quite a bit of new information. Though it was mostly fundamental things I can see how they'll help me out then also I impressed some of my classmates. I might even get a job as a makeup artist/costumer for a school's Wizard of Oz play at some point. In it I made a lovely little bag. I'm thinking I'm going to have some up for sale soon as well as make some with modifications for Mattie's harness.
I'm really looking forward to taking the next class though. In it I'll get to make a set of lounging pants. In this cold weather I could use a set maybe I could even see about putting in pockets! XD


Fursuit updates

Takeshi -

As for my Takeshi suit. I still haven't finished him yet. Unfortunately my grandparents threw out my dt patterns of part of the fur pants so I have to put on the bodysuit and try to make up for what's lost though that shouldn't take much time. I do have ears ready though so I guess I have everything at a partial pause.
I have luckily found all my casting supplies so in possibly the next week I'm planning to go over to my friend's place and do some castings so I should have at least a resin base and hinges to post pics of at least on my tumblr if not here.
I'm thinking about taking the bodysuit and kimono to Joanns and see if they can help me fix them. The kimono for the most part I'm just trying to figure out how I can make the trim look better then the bodysuit still has the same problem of turning itself into a dropped crotch which would be great if I was a marsupial but not for my fox. So I guess you could say he's like 60- 70 percent done

Okto -

I've been working on his animatronic tail quite a bit. I think it's finally starting to work a bit though I need to go to the hardware store one last time before I'm ready to mount it on the lovely harness I commissioned  thestrapsmith for.
So far other than a lot of concept work at the moment all I have is some materials, majority of his tail and wings and that's about it for now. I'm hoping to get a vacuum former built soon so I can feel a bit more confident about doing his metallic parts. Though I have a few foam tutorials that I could use as a fall back. I'm planning to sculpt a hyena mask as well as the actual Okto animatronics soon though that'll be a while away I think. My main focus still remains on Takeshi for now.

Comic Jumper Updates

As of my current situation right now Comic Jumper's going to have a new page once a month minimum. I'm thinking you can expect it around the 10th. Patreons will get to see WIPs as well as see the page in High resolution between the 3rd and 5th give or take.
I was wondering has anyone noticed a difference in the readability between the most recent page and the others?
I put it in Illustrator for the text so it should be clearer but, I'd rather hear from you guys.
There'll be some exciting pages coming soon.

Guess who has a etsy?

As of this week I now have a Etsy Store. As of right now all I have up is that Otter tail that didn't quite sell back during Christmas. If your interested feel free to check it out.
In the near future I'm planning to list a few bags, maybe a few balaclavas, a hat, maybe a pet bed, a few props among many other things.

What do you think would sell?
