the reason behind this? I know way too many cool guys that i wish i could get to know on a much deeper level. In some ways it sucks to be mated...for a girl in this fandom there are more than a few fish in the sea as they say. I wish i could do something for each of you that i'm close with...I always feel so bad when I can't do more than I already do. So for all you awesome guys out there, I wish there were more of me for ya.

I don't know why, but i really want to watch a kangaroo movie tonight. anybody know any really good ones that i may have not seen before?

Yes, i am working on your badges and refs. I've just been a little burnt out and not wanting to force myself through them cuz then they will just look like crap. Also, i was at mff this weekend and did nothing but run around in suit and chill with my friends there. For the next few days i'm gonna rest and work on what i can, but with thanksgiving being this week I'm dragging my ass. I assure you they will all be done before christmas.


(I know they will be done sooner than that, but just in case)

So I was in the fursuit parade as one if DrakonicKnight's rainbow huskies. Here is a link to video and the time stamp as to when we are in front of the camera.

 drakonicknight is the super awesomefursuit maker that made these guys and don't we look amazing? These were premade suits for sale, so if you are interested contact her! Just stay away from the green one, I love it so much i'm keeping it for myself. Now i just gotta pay her for it :3


For those of you who don't know this is my first time ever fursuiting, and i had a hella awesome time of it.
I had a super fun time and I love you all! i'll post a journal about the whole con after i've gotten some sleep. I'm feelin pretty tired.

I wish i was down there right now and that my fursuit was in my hands at this moment. I hate how last minute it is getting done, but I know its still gonna be awesome and I'm gonna love it...I just want to know that it will be done in time for me to use at the con. So anywho, I'm also working on my own personal project, Luma my Husky/coyote mix. As of yet, she will have a tail, paws both feet and hand, and a set of ears on a hat that doesn't match...either that or no ears at all with a better hat for the occasion. Will also have my leg fur for her. Not sure you can call this a partial, but I won't be doing a head for her until after I move to PA in the summer.

I'm finishing up painting my claws for my hunam/hybrid partial (luma) for mff that is mostly made by me.

gonna finish furring my feet paws too and attaching the claws to both feet paws and hand paws which i washed last night and have been air drying.

Also, gonna finish putting the Catching Tail panel together for MFF and catch some dinner.

Aside from that, SLEEP!!!!

I have work in the morning and a bit of cleaning to do when i get home along with packing and doing some finishing touches.


To those of you gettin free art from me, I plan to have them all done and ready to ship for thanksgiving, but they may not get done until the first week of december. Either way, have patience I'm super busy and getting them done when I can.

I will be at MFF all weekend long with my friends and mate, so feel free to come up and give me a hug, just don't put your paws in places they don't belong as my mate will then rip you apart :3


Happy Hump Day!

I have over 1000 page views!!!! That is super awesome! look, I even have proof!! http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6862785

!!!!!WARNING!!!!! This journal is kinda random.


so, last night i couldn't sleep. perhaps my nerves about mff are getting to me? Whatever the case may be, I am really tired...but i did get to watch a few movies last night. Yesterday was pretty productive too. i finished two ref sheets, one gift art, and am about half finished with a third ref sheet. With all of this ref sheet business, there has also been interest in being commissioned to make a ref sheet for someone's character. As happy as that made me i now feel as if i need to work my butt off and create a set of line art to use for this kind of thing... "what's holding me back?" you are wondering...my lack of ability to draw things that look like what they are supposed to.


aside from that, i'm gonna work something out cuz i like making ref sheets :3 and if those refs could make me some money too? that would rock.


so thats about it...oh yeah! I sent out my first batch of free badges today, so if you are one of the people getting one, watch your mailbox!

Since i'm working second shift today, I'm laying around watching vids on youtube, one of which being the fursuit parade from MFF last year. MFF was my first furry con and my introduction into the fandom. Before then I didn't know what a fursuit was or what anthropomorphic meant. watching this video almost a year later I am picking out the suits i recognize and reminiscing about that weekend where my life got a whole lot fluffier. With that being said, I can not wait for Mff in 12 days. I have commissions that i will be receiving at the con from artists like and others I will be commissioning there like


In the last year i have made a lot of friends in the fandom and i'm happy for every one of them. Thanks guys for making this the best year of my life. Even though i went through a terrible breakup in the spring, I had support from all my close friends. I love you guys, and you know who you are, don't change!

So i have started writing a story using my own characters, but i don't have enough of them to fill my cast. As this is the first story i will be sharing on fa, I would like to welcome everyone to offer their characters as members of the story.

The story will rarely go beyond a general rating, and when it does permission will be gotten from the character(s) involved owners.



My current cast list:

Serai ~ female wolf (mine) http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5903873/

Kyrin ~ male wolf/husky (mine) http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6636857/

Luma ~ female husky/cayote (mine) http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6767507

Pudge ~ female rabbit (mine)

Rose ~ female wolf (mine) http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4920915/

Blanche ~ female fox/cat (mine) http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5673386/

Suzuka ~ female horse (mine)

Timothy ~male tiger cat (mine)

Cobalt ~ male fox ( :cobaltthefox: ) http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6315126



I'm forgetting somebody...but i can't think of who right now...oh well.

A little piece of story plot for you: The main setting is a college and all the characters are either students or they work there :3


**If a character does not have a ref sheet, one will be made and posted eventually.

Ok my fellow fuzzies. I'm in such a good mood that I am going to do free badges for a while. There are a few rules of course to get your badge.

1) must be a watcher, so if you aren't please click the add watch button.

2) spread the news! Share the news with all of your friends in a journal.

3) give me a name. (Look at sample badges to see why: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6766522/ )

4) pick some colors to be used. If you can't think of any then send me a ref of the char.

4.5) tell me something that you like or that represents the character named. Ex. Jinash's cowbell.

These are laminated hand made and colored with marker. When I finish yours I will note you for your address so I can send it to you.

Though these are free, I will accept tips through paypal here: jstro306[at]yahoo.com

5) guess my favorite food so i know you read everything :3


I don't know how many I am going to do, so comment quickly!

So, as you can guess I am up to making badges and have been practicing for the last month. I have a set of mlp as example here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6743926/
these are hand colored and laminated.

these badges are $3 laminated and an extra 50 cents if they need to be mailed. I will be at mff, so if you are going then why not order one now? you can pay me in cash at the con.

Badges like these can be a little more complex and may have a background design. I chose not to add a background on the mlp badges because they are meant to look like the ponies they represent.

So i have decided to start writing a story using my own characters, but i don't have enough of them to fill my cast. As this is the first story i will be sharing on fa, I would like to welcome everyone to offer their characters as members of the story.

The story will rarely go beyond a general rating, and when it does permission will be gotten from the character(s) involved owners.



My current cast list:

Serai ~ female wolf (mine)

I'm assuming at the hyatt or across the street.

20 :3

5'4'' add about 4-5" in suit.


What suits will you have?:
well, hopefully it will be done so i can...I'll be in my partial of Serai being made my DrakonicKnight.
I will also be introducing a new character for myself that is more human than animal, her name is Luma and if you keep watch I will have her anthro ref done at the end of the month.


Can I touch you?:
Keep your paws off my lady parts. I am mated and I


Can I talk to you?:
Stupid question. YES!


Can I take pictures with you?
I'm kind of a camera whore and i love pictures...so YES!!!


Are you nice?:
Generally yes, but stupid and creepy people make me grrrrrrr.


Are you cliquey?:
I still need to look that word up...I like to hang out with nerds, but i get along with most people.


Can I stalk you?:
Please don't stalk me. I don't like creepy people and that is just plain creepy.

don't touch me inappropriately, don't steal anything, no smoking either please. I'm very affected by smoke because i have asthma (yet i love to hang out with dragons lol).


If I see you, how should I get your attention?:
you can tap me on the shoulder or call out my name or just walk up and hug me, just not from behind. that will get you the wrong kind of attention.

So, I finally feel like I might be getting somewhere here. I've had over 800 page views in the last ten months, which is about how long i've been here. I have also accumulated 42 watchers. To many that may not sound like much, but i feel that I am very close to a benchmark. So, when i have 50 watchers I will be giving each one of you awesome people a gift :3 in thanks for watching. It is just a small way for me to say thank you everyone. And to those of you who have been there from the beginning, you are awesome!!!


Happy tuesday!

So I just noticed that I have 69 submissions now. Don't know why that makes me so happy, but thats ok...I better go take a snapshot of that before it goes away.

So  CandyKimur is having a little contest and if you want to get in on it head over to https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/2806242/ and check it out.

(one of the steps to get in on it requires a pimpage of the contest via journal)

get going while the gettins good!




^^Sundae^^

So I'm wondering what other artists are out there that have a fairly quick output of commissions? Comment on your favorite artists to commission and how quickly they get their work done below please!

so i'm getting tired of being reminded about breaking my phone every time i go to my profile page and i also have good news i got my keys for the new house today and it was much easier than pulling teeth. i've got about half of my stuff packed up and i am going to move as much of it as i can in the morning. my poor little car is loaded down and i will be very uncomfortable for the short drive to my new home. it will take me about a month to get The Fifth Den set up and fully functioning, but i will be done by the end of October and I will also be having a more regular stream schedule.

My first stream in suit will also be in my new suit that i will also have next month. Also I am looking to start working on harnesses for suiters...I may use my first stream to show progress on my own harness for that because this wolf totally wants to be a sled wolf, kinda like Balto only cooler. lol. (when i say Balto i'm talking about the legendary wolf dog that traveled across Alaska to deliver medicine to Nome for sick children.

I;ve also been working on my own doodle badges. I have one for each of my sona's: Serai, Suzuka, and Pudge. I don't have any art of Pudge yet, but i hope to hop to it. (bunny joke) I also have a few gift badges that i am working on. Hopefully everyone will like theirs :3

My badge tags are still up for sale right along with all of my crochet items. Also, commissions are always open. I crochet bags, scarves, collars, and a few other things. I can also do plastic canvas, small hand sewing projects, and custom wooden tags.
