the handpaws have gone to my friends to be sew up properly, i stitched them by hand but had a few gaps and missed stitches, so she's gonna run the sewing machine round them for me.

i've hit a bit of a bump with the head, mainly the eyes.
was thinking of trying these to see which is best,

follow-me eyes
anime/manga style
glazed

i'll get each made and try them in head, taking photos then compare to see which looks best/has best visibility.

cutting out and stitching those ears together by hand took the best part of 4 hours today,
i watched both bad boys/bad boys 2 while doing these,
and got throught 6 cans of fosters,
so more blood was sacrificed to the suit (stabbed myself 4 times with needle, in same finger)

it all started for me during my time in college 1999/2002.

i was taking the B-tec national diploma in engineering course, during the technical drawing classes  i would finish the work i was given in half the time it should, and i'd get another sheet of paper and start drawing anime/manga on it, mainly catgirls.

thats where my fursona, minokyoko was born in 2001, i came across the furry fandom a couple times over '02-'05 then my interests changed into mountain biking and rc cars.

its only over the last couple years i've gotten back into drawing manga/anime, which led to the furry part, which led me to discover that the first catgirl i drew back in '01 was my fursona.

now being furry is sort of another hobby for me,
along side mountain biking, restoring vintage rc cars and drawing manga/anime.

i came across this site while searching for furry cons in the uk and the rest is history.

i've sewn myself to this a few times over the last couple weeks.

best one i did resulted in my having to scrap that fur due to there being a fair bit of blood on it.

got the fun task of stitching together the rest of the second handpaw tonite,that'll take a couple hour.

earlier i nearly bought a load more fur to turn this into a full suit, but decided against it as with just the head, feet and hands its hot enought to wear.

gonna pick up a couple rubber car mats tomorrow to use on the bases of my foot paws.
