I'm working on a top secret video project, in which I need any video content that you might have of Flux! Even if you had already submitted it to youtube, it would be great to have a higher quality version to work with. :D If you do, feel free to post below and we can work out a way to transfer it. Rapid share is generally an easy one to work with for this kind of stuff.

Also! It have yet to vote, please go support him, he needs roo! ^^

Lights featured in the video found at The Photon Factory.

So i've been keeping tabs on the game, and I'm very surprised at just how many people have ended up playing. As I think I had mentioned several times, the game is not 100% complete, there is a lot that I would love to see in there. Now that you guys have played it yourself, I would like to know what you would want to see.

Please take the time below to describe your ideas that you want in the game. I can't guarantee that I will get them in there, but everything you tell me helps get a better idea on whats a good direction to go.

So! I'm working on a simple yet amazing little project, a secret one for now! I'm looking for two people who might be able to help me with this over this week and weekend. As I said, the scope of the project is small so the work would be small to anyone who has experience in these subjects. Though I would be more then happy to compensate people for their time for their involvement.

---Flash Animator---
I need someone who is familiar with flash animation, and would be able to create a small number of unique ones. The concepts of what I'm looking for are pretty much done, though input is always welcome.

---Sound Artist---
I need someone that can edit and work with basic small sound clips, as well as a simple music track.

If you are interested, PM me with a little bit about what you have done and what you ask for your time. Again, the scope of this is small and I would hope to have this project done by the beginning of next week. If you are not yourself one of these people, but know one that might fit, let me know below, or even go so far as to link them to this journal.

Thank you everyone for your time!
- Kiro ^^

---Edit---

The project has been reviled! http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4287130

I guess the tarp surfing video is making it way around the fandom! A videocast called "Furry News TV" did plug for the video! You should go check it out, the guy is actually quite a character.

Results Listed Here :D

The results are almost here, but you still need to wait a little longer. I'm waiting for responses from a few of the mystery judges, once I get those in I will be able to figure out the final winners. I'm sure I will say this in length later, but were many more entries that I ever thought I would have gotten, it's quite hard narrowing it down to only 8 >.< Thank you so much for everyone who participated.

Also, the roo still needs your support in the current FFFF round! <3

Win a Flux energy drink can: Win a Can Contest

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

---Contest---
While I was in suit at AC 2010 I was giving out limited edition Flux energy drinks. Most people who wanted them got one, but I know there are plenty who didn't catch me in suit and others who didn't go. I have a few cans left over and decided to provide an opportunity for you to obtain your very own. There is no plan to reprint these cans, so these are the last of the last that are available.

---Rules---
To enter, submit a photo/video/art piece to FA or YouTube that shows or refers to the Flux energy drink. Show what your character would do after drinking a can, show where you would place the can in your energy drink collection, it's completely up to you. Once you have submitted your piece send me PM with a link, and I will add it my this journal post. Please only one entry per person.

Entries can be submitted from now until end of the day July 30th, at which point they will be reviewed by myself and a few others I know. Judging will be based on creativity and uniqueness, not necessarily artistic quality. A total of 8 top entries will be selected and each person will be sent a can of Flux energy drink. In addition, the top 3 winners will also receive their very own USB PlasmaTrim from ThePhotonFactory.com.

Winners are responsible for shipping costs, although arrangements can be made to receive them at conventions I may be attending.

---Summary---
- Entries are to be submitted on FA or YouTube
- Entry includes or refers to the Flux energy drink can

There were lot of good entries submitted, and a lot of hard choices when having to boil it down to eight. I heard that from just about every judge, and I certainly voiced it myself.

Through the entire process I've attempted to keep my muzzle shut, as to keep everything fair. In the coming days I hope to let everyone know what I thought about their particular entry, as I really do appreciate everyone who participated.

Again, Thanks to everyone! ^^

As it's becoming a tradition, tonight I'm going to be hosting another fursuit ustream session. In particular I'm going to be working on finishing up the Itsu footpaws, possible a little more. Please feel free to come and watch, hang out, as well as ask questions.

Below is the link to the stream

I am going to be doing another Ustream tonight, in similar fashion to the ones I have done before. Tonight I'm going to be working on a set of footpaws for the Itsu suit. Feel free to join, hang out, ask questions, ect...

Nightclaw will be joining me through the stream, working on his own fursuit project.

Today at 9:00pm EST I'm going to do something a little different. I'm going to be ustreaming and answering people's questions about creating fursuits, wearing them, taking care of them, ect... maybe even do a few live examples if I have the materials around. Can't guarantee I can all your questions, but I sure will try. So If you have anything you would like to ask, or are just curious to watch please join us.

Here is the link to the ustream channel

Ello Again,
I'm going to be working on suit stuff all weekend and decided to throw up another ustream. The video quality is a bit better this time, and I think I've worked out all the bugs with the audio/video that I had last time. Feel free to watch, ask questions, hang out as I work on suit commissions.

Hello All,
I'm going to be doing a bit of fursuit building tonight and decided to ustream it this time. At the moment I'm working on a bodysuit and tail. I can't say that you will learn anything from it, but feel free to ask any questions you have.

- Kiro ^^

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/drawingatrandom

Hello All,
Well I certainly got many more requests for commissions then I had anticipated, thank you everyone who contacted me. I do apologize if I was unable to get a quote to you, I know a few did not. Since I'm still getting my bearings for doing suits for others I only wanted to fill two slots for commissions at the moment. I filled the slots per the order I received deposits, which currently those slots have been taken by...

1.  Itsuya
2.  MintzBuck

I will keep everyone who contact me on a list and I'll be sure to send an e-mail off when a slot opens or I make more slots available, as well as post another journal on my account. Again, thank you for your time, and I hope I can build more of your suits in the future.

- Kiro

Hello All!

So I've finished my suit and I feel comfortable enough to start taking commissions. Below I have listed the details for anyone who is interested. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at any time, I'm more then happy to talk with you.

---

Price Guide


Fullsuit - $1000
Partial - $650
Head Only - $425

These are estimated base prices. To receive a more accurate quote please e-mail me with a full description of what you are looking for. Quotes do not not secure a spot in the queue, this can only happen after the down payment is received.

---

Payment


Before starting a commission a 30% non-refundable down payment is required. Once this is received your spot will be secured in the commission queue. Once a commission is completed the resulting balance will need to received before the commission is sent to you. If the commission is to be given in person I'm happy to take the final payment there.

Payments can be sent either by Paypal or Money Order. Specific payment info will be e-mailed to you when an agreement has been met over the design and quoted price of the suit.

---

Time Estimates


I work a full time job thus only have a limited amount of time to work on commissions. In addition, I like to have the time to put quality into my work. Due to these factors I estimate that full suits will take around three months for production, not taking into account any commissions already in the queue. In the future I wish to lower my estimated production times, but for now I prefer to give a safe estimate.

---

Shipping Costs


Shipping costs depend on location and dimensions of the suit. Unless another type of shipping is requested I will using UPS ground and purchase suitable insurance. The cost for shipping is not included in the base quote.

I'm also willing to transport suits to any convention that I may be attending free of charge.

---

Warranty


I provide a 60 day warranty on all parts under normal use conditions per my discretion. This means that from 60 days of receiving the item if any piece breaks due to my construction under normal conditions I will repair it free of charge. Any accidental (or intentional) damage caused is not covered. Shipping is not covered in the warranty.

---

What I will need


To receive a quote I will need to know what you want. A good visual description is required to get an accurate quote, any concept art you have will also aid in this process. Below are some common options available, but my no means is limited to this list.

Eye type
- Outside cartoon eyes (Note: Vision may be limited with this style)
- Inset following eyes (Note: Vision is generally better with this style)

Feet type
- Indoor show feet (Note: Can easily get damaged by ruff and abrasive surfaces)
- Outdoor feet

Leg type
- Strait normal leg
- Digigrade Legs (Note: Digigrade legs normally will raise the price, exactly depends on the details)

Paw Type
- Number of fingers
- Number of toes

Fur
- What colors
- What patterns
- Length of the fur
(Note: Not all fur colors and types exist, and some may more expensive to obtain. This can be discussed further during the quote.)

Once your spot is secured I will need your physical dimensions. Body measurements are done through the means of a duct tape dummy (DTD), head measurements taken with a tape measure. The DTD will need to be created and shipped to me before I can begin working on the body. Information about how to create a DTD, how to take head measurements, and where to ship the DTD will be sent in an e-mail to you once the down payment is received.
