Where is the year going?!
10 years ago
General
Seriously its nearly the end of June! Where on earth is my summer going?!
Bit of an update journal to plan things out and let everyone know whats going on here as I feel its been a while since Ive done this properly. As always you can find the Trello's at the bottom of this page if you are a current customer, im planning to update it a minimum of once a week!
Art:
Anyone who has an art-based commission from me, do not fear! Ill be spending the next 2 weeks working on everything I owe non stop to get the que clear and your work out to you. The pre-CF badges are 4 away from being completed, and im 25% through the CF sketch/badge list. I haven't got many digital pieces left, but the ones I have Ive been working on them all at the same time so theyre all very close to being finished :)
Patches:
All the patch artwork is done! Im just waiting on a new shipment of Twill to cut up so that I can continue with them this week and get them done, expect photos soon. UPDATE 21/07 My Wacom is in repairs! This means half the artwork is on there, and will be back to me within a week so I cannot transfer it to the software.
To everyone who finds the wait too long, you may always contact me for a refund! I thought at first these patches would be quick, but my machine has broken down twice and I never found the perfect fabric for the patches at the start, only recently have I found a good fabric to work with that is producing patches at the quality level that im happy with. Im so very sorry for these delays, but Id rather give you the very best quality that I can offer!
Suits:
This week im repairing and adding to my resin base arsenal for all costumes coming up, sculpting goat/gryphon/dragon/canine/medium feline
And ill also be refurring a head ready for auction!
Then ill continue on with my trello list :)
So thats that, May/June has been exceptionally busy but ill be back into my groove in no time~
We have had a few problems recently with customer contact, and with customers thinking I am Sparkle, we are both indeed a part of Farukucostumes though we designed the new que for 2015 to operate in two halves! As posted previously we are in a partnership for costume work, its not all 'Faruku' answering your emails! If you are on Sparkle (Tayalu's) list and have arranged the commission from the last batch with her, then it is her youre speaking to (usually emails are always signed with Faruku or Tayalu so you know whats what)
I physically do not have the time to handle x2 sets of que emails and contacts, me and sparkle are working together on the projects themselves, but separate in regards to emails/updates so that you guys can get better customer service.
This is the first Trello list of everyone keeping in contact with myself: https://trello.com/b/e9ubCsnU/fursuit-work
And this is Sparkelpups Trello list: https://trello.com/b/RGOn65tQ/costume-commissions
All Faruku Costumes customers should be on those lists, and if you are not please let us know :)
