I enjoy looking at anthropomorphic art and fursuits. Maybe once I retire from my career I’ll have more time to make fursuits and stuffed animals.

Nyra is officially a full fursuit and will be making her first appearance this weekend in San Antonio Texas at ACFI.

Plastic wrapping my dummy and tail and getting it ready for the taping.

Taping done, drawing out my fur pattern on the tape.

Nyra had an awesome day at Stratosfur. Which I could have stayed longer but life calls and I need every free moment I can to work on Nyra’s full suit before Oct 1 😱

These are the biggest pool toys I have ever seen in my life. I wish I found out who made them and how.

I found Retsuko from one of my favorite anime, Aggretsuko

Ref sheet for @shyfox89.bsky.social #eyart0430 #Ahk'lut #furry

A character reference sheet for an Ahk'lut! She is wearing a bikini top with shorts, a sleep set with a crop top and shorts, and a flannel with cargo pants and boots. She has an expression of "good grief" and one with her scowling with her tongue sticking out. The is also a ref from behind showing her tail placement.

Latest creation: Nyra Nightcurrent the Akhlut (Orca/wolf hybrid) she made her first debut at Texas Furry Fiesta 2026. I am looking forward to making her into a full fursuit in the near future.

Almost done with the head, Nyra was fighting me in this picture. Sometimes you gotta step away and come back to it. I did this multiple times before I felt like she was complete and I forgot to take pictures but at least she was mostly complete before TFF. And was able to make her first deput in Dallas.

Sewing what I can with the sewing machine then hand sewing the more complicated parts.

Covering my foam/PLA base with masking tape to make my patterns.

TFF was amazing, this is where I got to show my latest creation Nyra Nightcurrent the Akhlut/Orca. And I finally got to meet ShadowFox!!! I’m thoroughly impressed with their suit and I hope one day there will be more Zoid fursuits like this one in the future.

My creations and their heads. It’s definitely been a learning curve throughout the years. The otter Klippa is my latest creation.

The beginning of 2015 creation. I did not know furries were a thing until I tried creating a bear suit for a shape shifting character for a role playing event. I’m very thankful for all the creators of fursuits for putting helpful advice on Pinterest. Otherwise this painful quadsuit wouldn’t exist.

Side view, my first realization that the head is a bit small.

Front view, and that was as high as I could get the head up. Yeah no more quadsuits after that. I give props to those that can hold out in a quadsuit longer than 30mins.

The 2013 creation. This has to be the biggest project I have ever done. We were hosting an event and needed castle walls and then I decided to throw in a dragon for fun.

First step, the dragon’s wooden skeleton with movable mouth.

Chicken wire, cheap fabric dipped in Elmer’s glue for the skin and horns.

Hurray first post, hi everyone. I will be posting some of my art projects on here from back in the past until now. Just to show off my passion. I was raised with this family motto “if it doesn’t exist or can’t afford it, make it!” Now this was back when 3D printing wasn’t a thing.
