Here are my 2 fursuits.  I made them both at the same time (it was more cost effective that way). I learned a lot from making them... but now I want to make more XD

I must say nice suits... My friend here made a Minotaur Suit he had stilts so he could be like 9 feet tall... but still awesome suits...

the ammy one is awesome for obvious reasons :3 Makes me want one even more. What did you use to help you make them? like websites? books? or videos?

I got some good advice fom Beetlecat (http://www.beetlecatoriginals.com/) about how to make a balaclava style head.  She has some great tutorials on her site.  Other then that, most of it was trial and error.  I have made a lot of costumes, so I had some previous experience dealing with fabric in general.  Most ofthe work involved knowing how to break down the steps into easy to manage parts

Beetlecat is awesome at fursuits. She's making mine.

I am starting to take some commissions.  I have a graphic novel project which  is probably going to take up the rest of this year, however come 2009 I will be available to take commissions.  I have one in the queue already.  You can pm me or e-mail and I can run down a quick quote for you if you are interested.

Well goodness; I thought you looked familiar.  I've seen these suits on the net before; quite impressive.  What you've done with the minotaur is especially nice; the shape of the face and hooves is phenomenal, and the additions to the costume bring it up to it's full potential.  Gorgeous work, mate.

If you're in the market for work, I'd be interested in something minotaur-esque.  Especially with your finess; it seems you've got quite a nice start on fursuit making.

Any plans for a third suit at the moment?  Keep up the spectacular work, mate.

Yeah, these pics have been posted on Cosplay.com as well

Oh lordy... I have plans for too many

I've started working on a Freya Costume from Final Fantasy 7.  Her feet are done at this point, but that's it.
Otherwise, I want to make an Anubis, and a lion and a Griffin... and maybe a fox

XD wah!

*squees* I can't wait either. I know that she's already started on it. It's a typical timber wolf that has the same technique used as her Red suit.

OMG!!! *squees*

Unfortunatley, it will not be ready by FurBQ, although I wish it was. It'll be ready for Halloween though.
