And we've got paint! I've got a few small tweaks to do, and then it's on to final photos.

The bear has fur, and paint is up next! Assuming we're wrapped up over the weekend, I'll be aiming to get photos and start the auction late next week. We'll have our usual low start price, with an auto-buy at normal commission rates.

Surprise bear! I've been working on this guy during pauses in other projects, and will be putting it up for auction when finished.

Kits going out this week! I can't always take base orders immediately if my commission schedule is full, but if you email I can usually get to you within 2-3 weeks.

Final corso pics are up! This guy was a ton of fun, and I'm really pleased with how he turned out. He's on his way home to @/laserpaints.com! (Broken link because it's a NSFW account, fair warning)

Just realized I never shared the fully painted gums/lower lip for the corso, and now that the fur's on you can hardly see it

Exhibit A for why paint is so important even when the design/inspiration is a single color:

Snip snip snip (Yes I do use clippers for the first pass and the broad areas, but the tiny scissors are needed to get down into the wrinkles and tight spots)

Corso progress! Lots of trimming still to do on this guy before we're ready for paint

The block-in vs the final install! The lips still need to be painted to blend more smoothly into the gums.

Akyon the maned wolf has headed home to @akyon.dog! He'll have paws and a tail coming soon as well. He's built on my sighthound base, and I loved having the opportunity to try using it cross-species! It worked out very nicely with minor modifications.

Testing to see if my photos upload correctly via mobile - wip vs nearly done! Final photos coming soon ✨

I can't find any rhyme or reason to whether or not bluesky lets me upload photos right now. I'll try again tomorrow to see if it's fixed itself.

A commission in progress - a maned wolf, built on my sighthound base. Thicker fur will bulk up the face, and sculpted eyelids make the eyes look smaller and more angled, to avoid the greyhound "boba" look. Those foam strips were just for visual blocking, and aren't used in the final mask.

A couple kits that went out in February - I'm able to take DIY parts orders like this at almost any time, even when full commissions are closed!

Motley Crow Masks @motleycrowmasks.bsky.social · 25/02/2026
Sculpting progress on a new base! This mask will be a cane corso (jowls added with fabric) but it would work nicely for several of the mastiff type breeds

I'll be closing my commission application form at the end of the weekend! I'll still be open for kits/blanks after that, but not full pieces. No estimate for my next opening - no sooner than 6 months, for sure.

The corvid auction is ready to rumble! It'll be fairly quick, from Friday morning to Sunday evening (US time). As a thank you for being so patient with my hiatus, we're starting at a bit less than half the normal price, so I'm hopeful it's more accessible. www.thedealersden.com/listing/real...

Throwback time! An armadillo, a cross fox, and an algonquin werewolf! Commission applications are open for the rest of the week: forms.gle/nS26HeJ84iFs...

Motley Crow Masks @motleycrowmasks.bsky.social · 02/02/2026
Commissions are open! The form will likely be up for one week, but I might leave it open longer than that depending on response. forms.gle/Q4n5P6jdZpmL... And the crow is nearly done! It'll go up for auction later this week as well, after I've gotten some photos.

Next up is adding feathers - and opening commissions! My application form will be open starting tomorrow. As usual, it's not first-come-first-served, so you'll have at least a week to get your info together.

A new corvid is on the way! It's been a long time (for positive reasons) but I'm getting the gears grinding again. If you've messaged me, you should hear back soon! I'm going to start with kit orders, and then follow up with commission inquiries (I'll have a proper opening, don't worry).

Reminder that I'm open for resin bases and kits year-round, even if full mask commissions are closed! You can contact me by dm or by email at motleycrowmasks@outlook.com , and if you include your general location (e.g. state/country and postal code) I can get you a shipping estimate as well.

A crow is in the works! This will be a premade up for sale - I don't have a date yet for my next round of commissions, but I do still have an unconfirmed waitlist I'll be checking in with at some point before then, so it'll likely be a while.

It's been a very busy few months, but we made it out the other end with a really fun armadillo for @NebouNoir (on X)! Her tongue can be moved via velcro, and the vision gaps cut into the scale pattern mean she has a great field of view.

A date's been chosen - my commission application form will be open from April 6th-20th! It's not first come first served, and I'll post again with more detailed information when we get closer. In the meantime, the FAQ in my bio should answer most questions you might have!

I've been working 6-7 day weeks at my day job, which means I haven't had a fully free day since partway through September and my masks are at a standstill. Imagine me free-climbing 15 feet below the edge of the burnout pit. Still holding on but man. Good news is this workload should wrap up soon.
