I will be at Further Confusion this year!

I am also extremely pleased to inform you I will also be at table 122 in Dealer's Room East! Find me for comfortable low profile balaclavas, BIG collars, vinyl stickers with my art, whiskers, some patterns, and other excellent goodies for your furry enjoyment!

I will have two of my fursuit characters with me: Chelan, my coyote, and Mukilteo, my orange doggy character.

If you see me there, especially if we've met before, do me a favor and remind me your name & a little about what you do! (the Baker/baker effect is real with me, haha) I'm not being intentionally forgetful, I promise I just see your critter face online far more than your human one!

If you're attending, I'm really excited to see you there!!!!

Here's where to find me in the dealer's room!

I am excited to annouce I revised another one of my guides this month! I have been meaning to give more attention to this one since it totally needed it! This is not the first time this tutorial has been revised, and probably not the last – I’m always working on honing my technique for body padding and I have learned a lot since the last time I wrote on the topic. This guide has expanded text in nearly all areas. Some things have been added for clarity, but many more things have been added since I learned new things I wanted to share! http://matrices.tumblr.com/post/126927632301/fursuit-body-padding-tutorial
