Although the forum is primarily fursuit focused, there is also a section for art and other creative projects! You are totally welcome to join :)

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!

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!
Oh my goodness this is a gold mine!!! Thank you so much :O I'll def order from them at some point
Mofumofu! I specifically chose the colors based on their stretch fur offerings as ik stretch fur is a lotttt harder to colormatch. I'm not familiar with gummyshark though, do you have a link to their site? 👀
Your green critter was what inspired me to make this guy!! I'll keep it in mind bc the smooth look is fantastic, I do like how the pile of stretch fur allows for a little more margin of error though
If you want to become this guy, keep an eye out on @magicmustelids.bsky.social in a few months! We want to start focusing on fullsuits with super unique shapes and features!
Thank you! :D

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 :)

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!

Toony illustration of Jam the otter and JTAG the weasel. They are back to back, saying hello to the camera
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!

A strawberry themed otter fursuit, one leg up on a rock, the other on the ground. They are seen wearing a strawberry bandana

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! 🦦🍓

I also have my personal acct @gatoryote.bsky.social if you'd like to hear me ramble, although I haven't posted there in a while (oops... life got busy). However this account will be less active and our Magic Mustelids account will be our primary fursuit posting place.
Thank you all!

We are currently getting everything up and running, come join us over at @magicmustelids.bsky.social!
This account will shift to be more about www.fursuitmak.ing updates instead. Catch us over on the new account for more suit WIPs, commission opportunities from us, & cool products!

What we called the "fun pants". Blue neoprene pants with foam glued at the thighs, knee, and butt to form digi legs. There are shoes at the bottom with foam sculpted toes. Please excuse the messy background
The "fun pants" all taped up with duct tape. You can really see the final vision here!
I haven't made a digi bodysuit since 2022 and I've never made one with this foam method. Honestly I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a very particular shape (esp for slim or sharper digi) and will likely be making a tutorial on my website about it in the future!
Full fursuit photo of Jam the otter outside with one foot on a rock. They have their eyelids on and are wearing a pink strawberry bandana. Their arms are crossed over their legs and you can clearly see the slim digitigrade shape from this angle
Photo of Jam with their paws raised as they lean up against a fence. There are cow sculptures in the background and some flowers.
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

BOTH SLOTS CLAIMED! Thanks everyone!
I’m very excited to have an opossum and another deer in my queue :D
This con is going to go so hard... #FCL

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!
