I know I'm not very active on here lately, mostly because this semester is kicking my ass (i've only got one more after this thank god and goddess alike), and I haven't had much time to really work on anything furry related.

I have, however, started hard work on my fullsuit for Pyro! If you follow my instagram, you've already seen this, but I've got a good start on the head and I'm working on finding the right shade and texture fur (I've got some swatches and I've ordered some more swatches to do some tests but why is it so hard to find soft, smooth, dark grey fur???)

Anyone have suggestions for inexpensive dark grey fur? The dark grey sherpa from Joann is a good color but it looks too sheepy and not enough like a cat. Pawstar is a little expensive for all the extra work I'd have to do (I would have to shave it down). I'm not super familiar with fursuit supply sources so any help there would be much appreciated. I'm also looking for black whiskers (I had asked another suiter I follow what they use for whiskers but they ignored my question soooo yeah)

And no, I do not want to commission the fullsuit because I want to get better at making them myself and it's extremely important to me that I make Pyro on my own and I really want to have her done by Tiny Paws next August
