  • The only photos I took of the production process for these. The purple fur was so permeated by febreze scent I just focused on sewing fast & accurately so I wouldn’t have weeks of exposure, as would be usual, as usual washing/natural deodoriser tricks didn’t work. The products have been sun aired for several days…

  • Tail sheath is now all sewn up and installed. Where the claw is jammed in is the little belt tunnel that travels through the foam core. Next step is doing the gore cap and belt tunnel fabric tube.

  • Working on the parasaur tail. The little hole that’s being left in the charcoal is for the belt tube that goes through the foam core. Also, this is my simplest tail ever (only 10 fur pieces)!

  • Taking a slight break from the paws to work on the tail part of this commission. This 180ish cm dragger has 30 total pieces, 20 of them being the spots that will be hand sewn.

  • This fantasy badger tail is made of super soft, textured speciality furs, & features a gore end cap with hidden belt tunnel. NFS This was a commission piece.

  • I always do a test fit of the belt tube before my endcaps get sewn down. I also pin down to the stabiliser foam insert in multiple places to ensure the cap can’t rotate when I secure it to the fur.

  • Comm progress. I’m really liking how the different fur textures are interacting on this piece. I also had to handsew parts as the furs are so thick my machine refused to take it along some seams.

  • There is truely no such thing as a ‘simple’ tail pattern. I patterned up a basic 3 colour design using the maquette method (where you pattern small then enlarge to correct scale) & still ended up with 16 pieces. This means the whole tail will have 32 pieces total, not including pieces for the gore…

  • Parasaur tail core for the premade. The white is calico reinforcing & the end has a lovely wiggle to it.

  • Finished commission for egg_exotic on twitter. These have a lot of special features; finger escapes, semi hidden stripe details on paw backs, mitten string with paw liner attachment loop, & hidden deluxe tail belt loop. (my tail caps come with gore caps as standard cause they’re fun)
