I am in the exploratory stages of finding an artist who's willing to work with me on designing cover art for one of my books. Previously I went to iFreelance.com to find an illustrator. But now I want to give people in the fandom a chance.

What I am looking for is a reproduction of this earlier art I had created for my book.

A little update for everyone. Although I've yet to put the deposit down for my fursuit, I have begun preparing for its eventual arrival. Part of that was ordering a dive skin to wear underneath the fursuit. For those of you not aware, a dive skin is a one-piece lycra body suit that helps to protect you while you are scuba diving or snorkeling. Generally it is worn under a wet suit but is sometimes worn on its own.

This is my dive skin, which actually arrived 3 days after it had been paid for! That is the fastest shipping I have ever seen. You can tell it is a very snug fit, which is important, and I can indeed attest to the fact that it does keep you cool. After less than half an hour of wearing it, I could actually feel the coolness on my back. You can see the little thumb straps that keep the arms from riding up, but on the legs there also are straps which attach to the feet to prevent the legs from riding up as well.

Still to come is the lycra balaclava, which I also ordered, to prevent my sweat from getting into my eyes when I'm in the suit. Also ordered is a bandana to tie around his neck.

Expect more updates soon... Thanks for watching.

Well, I'm officially doing it! I'm having a fursuit made for me. I've commissioned ~ValrusTheTiger to make a suit for me for the following character.

The suit will include the following features:

- foam base head with 3D toony eyes
- 4 finger toony style hand paws with black fur and tan/offwhite pads
- medium size, brown and white, bushy, fox style tail
- a plantigrade bodysuit with simple markings, 3 colours (white, 2 browns) and a puffy white chest
- 2 sets of feet paws, outdoor sole and indoor, both black and brown

I'm really excited about this and can't wait to see its progress.
