@fubarrdog But to add to this - Many makers charged below minimum wage, worked long hours, and now suffer burn out and RSIs. The way to manage this is and not live in poverty is charging appropriate wages. Fursuits were so cheap because makers were not charging for their time appropriately

@fubarrdog Costs of everything has jumped. Fur $$$ just about doubled. Shipping $$$ up massively. Costs for tools have jumped. Plus development in new techniques and those tools and materials also cost $$$. Cost of living skyrocketed. Of course fursuit prices are going to go up accordingly.

at this rate, i don’t know how western makers can continue to work and thrive and lead the fursuit industry i bought my first digi fullsuit from an established maker for $1500. now it’s 8k for a partial? what the hell happened?

@Winteriris42 I reccomend starting with something - like asking/talking about something you know theyre interested in, that isn't art/commissions/business. So things like hobbies, gardening/plants, boardgames etc. Talk to them like a person :)

@Winteriris42 Tbh just "hi" is a red flag for me - cuz typically when ive responded it just becomes a circular conversation because theyve expected me to carry the conversation they started (so a waste of my time and energy).

How do people talk to the artists they look up to and just make conversation? Best I can do is go into their DMs to say hi and get completely ignored..

Yep - this is how i do my smaller markings these days too. Faster, neater and more durable because you're leaving the fabric whole

@MazMadeFursuits I use a very thin seam - around 5mm and only brush just enough fur through to get it in the seam (and not the whole lot making it an extremely thick seam esp for long piles) I use a combination of clips and pins, baste stitching for sharp curves can also really help :3

@Kaikirith That's awesome! Do you have any tips for keeping your edges aligned as you're sewing even with the fur brushed towards the seam? I brushed it away so I could see my edges, and used a longer stitch length for the first pass so it'd be easier to brush out, but your way saves time!

I promised myself I'd keep to normal work hours and not do fursuit making over the weekend Practising and refining my technique for machine sewn seams doesn't count, right? Asking for a friend 😅

@ConjureCreature Defo mossy boi!!

Mossy coyote or angry wolf?

@InFluEnza1918 @_Vivilong_ Im sure you could find a maker with a similar style if you looked outside of "well known/popular" Even if you can't, its not an excuse to buy from them just because they have a specific style. Just cut your losses and go somewhere else

@_Vivilong_ It’s because no one is really making fursuits like them right now.

Im so sick and tired of seeing this one fucking suit maker who is a known zoophile apologist still get traction people have no fucking spine because "suit looks cool"
