Feet and tail as beautiful as a painting!
There is no trick to these legs; the model inside the suit is standing perfectly plantigrade. All of the shaping is done with padding and tailoring ^_^

A good read for everyone who are and/or who are considering taking commissions at some point.

It's #Fursuitfriday! :D Here is a highlight from this evening's Patron-only Discord stream ^_^ #FridayFeeling #FootpawFriday
I love making artistic liberty projects (such as this one) where the customer has no idea what they will recieve. Super surprise mode! 😊

The many faces of Beetle!
Bottom center was her first version (made by Joecifur and modified by me).
All the rest made #bybeetlecat. Top center is her most current incarnation.

Maney the Lion features hock, knee, and rear padding. (As well as chest, neck, and shoulder padding too!)

Tried to make a little comparison of the two RedXIII fursuits I have made! 15(ish) years between them.
"I like digging things, sniffing things, and burying those things to sniff out and dig up later" 🐕🐕🐕🌭🕳️
2007 vs 2017.
There's always more room for improvement! Just imagine what 2027 will bring :p
Are lions too majestic
for tip-toe tippy taps?

Can't forget to share the beans! 🐾🐾
I'm working on my newest blog article:
"Are you REALLY ready for fursuit commissions??"
I'm hoping it'll be a guide to artists to prevent common issues between artists/clients/working on client projects
Sound neat? Any specific issue/questions on this you'd like me to cover??
Loving all of the great artworks under the #AnimalArtistsUnite hashtag!!😁
I like working in a semi-realistic/idealized-realistic style. My intent w/my art is to evoke curiosity/interest/emote powerfully directly to the viewer while holding vast personal meaning to the wearer ☺️
An intimate embrace during a fursuit photoshoot. ❤️😽❤️ A gorgeous photo of my personal character, Beetle, with our eldest daughter taken and edited by @catamountainphotography 👨👩👧 .

Finished fursuit photos and videos of this 🦁🦁🦁 smexy beast coming up soon. I'm so excited he looks amazing... Here is just a small preview! 😁
Moo Monday! Here are a few bovines I've made.
Do you know which was the most recent (2015) and which one was first? (2006)
Thought I'd share a little look at the inside/outside of my newest fursuit head built. 🐺
Each character is unique but here is a general overview of how I do it!! :D

Just a little candy gore for this #halloween2021 Eve 😁
Do you have a favorite Halloween treat? 🍬🍫🍭🍬
Mine is any sour gummy! (I also like an occasional Twix)
This newly-finished wolf still needs a name! Any suggestions?
King of the (Scrub, grasslands, and open forests)😄
'Jungle' sounds cool and all but a royal beast this impressive needs space to roam! 🦁

FURSUIT CLEANING TIPS
I wash all of my fursuits in a front-loading washer with a mix of All: free & clear and (as needed) Nature's Miracle.
You can also pretreat/soak with Nature's Miracle (or a similar enzyme cleaner like the scentless Anti-Icky-Poo) … bit.ly/2SX3l6q
Dropping a link to my duct tape dummy tutorial! beetlecatoriginals.com/dtd
Here are 3 of the most vital points for a good DTD:
- use a non-stretch under layer
- Start at the armpits & groin so they are taped accurately. <-- hugely important!
- Tape right up to the hands/heels
My next fursuit commission slot is closing September 7th! :D #fursuit #fursuitcommission #bybeetlecat

Empire's tail! With this, I've made my articulated wolf tails even more simple (and cuddly). This one holds on with a simple (byo) belt but stays in place through high activity. #alwayslearning #alwaysinnovating #lovingwhatIdo #fursuitmaker
Made my first #fursuit in 2005 from foam & plastic mesh! By 2006 I was working on more #realistic suits (rare back then) using papier mache (!!)
Now in 2017, I employ resin, glass eyes, casting foams, etc & similarly advanced techniques & experiences ;)

I didn't make any full fursuits in 2009 (just heads/legs/ears) but thought this white wolf duo would make a fun comparison!
