Hello hello, long time no see! I've got a fresh coat of paint as JTAG (my little weasel guy!) feels much more like my fursona now. I was hit with a long period of burnout but I am finally getting back on my feet. Expect more casual fursuit making posting from here on out :) (more info in thread!)

Psst... guess what? Magic Mustelids is opening for fullsuit commissions on June 1st! For information on getting a quote, check out our how to order page! magicmustelids.com/howtoorder.php

I made a forum for fursuitmak.ing! My idea is that it will be a community-driven and open hub for fursuit making resources, kind of like what Livejournal was, with community-made resources and tutorials. You can make an account for free! fursuitmak.ing/forum/index.php #fursuitmaking

I feel like I'm finally unlocking the full potential of Nomad Sculpt by mastering all the masking features and the tube feature. The current base I'm working on will have magnetic swappable eyes and I am so proud of myself for figuring all of this out!

Here's a fun concept I did of a pooltoy plush-style fullsuit. Made out of stretch fur with sewn highlights for a fun and super toony look and feel, complete with a nozzle, handlebars, intentional seams, and lots of round shapes :) #fursuitmaker #fursuit

Lots of headbase models in progress :D This is going to be a year of a lot of fursuit experimentation. I'm really excited to level up! #fursuit #fursuitmaker

We're JTAG (formerly Gatorwave) and Jam, and we're TWO AWESOME MUSTELIDS making AWESOME FURSUITS TOGETHER! JTAG has nearly 7 years of fursuit making experience under his belt! Jam is new to the scene but is having a blast! Together we're bringing characters to life and making super-cool products!

I have a big announcement to make! I am moving away from the name 'Gatorwave'. I don't resonate with it as much as I used to & I'd like some separation between me and my work. As a result, I am partnering with my best friend Jam in order to form a new fursuit business called: MAGIC MUSTELIDS! 1/3

Introducing Jam! Magic Mustelids first official bodysuit! This otter has quite the appetite for a good old PB&J! Catch them squeaking around at Furpoc and other local events in New England! 🦦🍓 (Head and Paws by @cedaryote.bsky.social)

Today I finished teaching @averagefurr.bsky.social how to make a fursuit bodysuit! We finished it in one week together! We sculpted everything by hand and were incredibly happy with how it turned out :D Head and handpaws by @cedaryote.bsky.social

BOTH SLOTS CLAIMED! Thanks everyone! I’m very excited to have an opossum and another deer in my queue :D

This is rare, but I’m considering maybe taking on 1-2 longer-term fursuit commissions due to the upcoming material price hike. I won’t be officially open for comms again in a *very long* time (at least a year from now) so this is a rare opportunity to get a custom suit from me! #fursuit

This con is going to go so hard... #FCL me, @rempixel.art, @fursuitmak.ing Suits all by @fursuitmak.ing ❤️

The bee sting removal procedure was a resounding success (Remy for @rempixel.art is all glued!) I also installed his hair, which features some braids! I still need to add the hair ties but I’m quite happy with how they came out 😌 #fursuit #fursuitwip #fursuitmaker

When the rough pinned “stung by bees” phase is *this* cute, you know you’re going to end up with a stellar suit 😳 WIP for @rempixel.art! #fursuitwip #fursuitmaker #fursuit

I found this silly fursuit comic I drew about 2 years ago. Thankfully not based on a true story >.> #furry

400 of you! Wow!!! Perhaps I’ll do some sort of giveaway for 500 followers? 🤔 maybe for some puffy paws if people would be interested? :)
