I see artists burn out in their craft because they all make the same fatal mistake. Relying on motivation alone as your drive to work will screw you over at some point. Instead cultivate a high working morale and standard. Trust me, it will save you when motivation runs out 👍🏼
“Why are fursuits so expensive, I know for a fact materials only cost xxx amount of money so you are totally overcharging” - yeah about that.. You are not just paying for the materials but also the makers skill, time and sanity! Let this picture illustrate the last bit.. 😅😂😘
It’s official Hyena Day and what better way to celebrate it than showing my ever first yeen fursuit!

This year I completed the amount of suits I could handle without burning myself to the ground. I have spend the past year adjusting my work schedule to fit my life and needs without burning myself out mentally or physically. This has been a very positive change and one I hope
PSA: most artists find it rude if you go through an entire ordering process for a commission (selecting type, finalizing details, picking materials, emails ect) but the moment you need to pay you go “oh, I was not going to buy right now I was just looking”. Please don’t do that
Presenting Viktor! This brand new Daddy wolf is looking for a new territory to call his own very soon.
Keep an eye out for more details on how to very soon. Caution ⚠️ He will bite! 🐺👀💦🥵

The official Alpha Dogs visual measurements guide I use to make my bodysuits! If you follow the written instructions I give very closely and use the visual guide to help you with placements, I can make bodies just as well fitting as any DTD made bodysuit!

A bit late but here is the head video I made of
@Ponyfoxx
Freckles before he was delivered and unboxed at Pack Weekend.
I had to keep it secret because customer didn’t want to see the suit before the unboxing ^^
Here is a little tip: take pictures of your tape pattern before you cut it out, that way you can easily look back and piece the correct pieces together once you assemble the fur pieces for the head :)
So I heard you guys are into wah’s right now?

Alpha Dogs presents: Midnight Husky! This cool lad will soon be for sale as a partial with puffy finger hands and a big curly tail. He features magnetic eyelids and galaxy minky tongue and inner ears + paw pads. See next tweet for closeups.
It looks I need to clarify, because I’ve been accused of some vild things because of this. It was brought to my attention that my tweet could be misinterpreted so I’d like to elaborate what my intent was.
Obviously I’ve been blocked so I can’t answer to the accusations but just
I just wanted to let current customers and future customers know, that I always can provide a full refund at any given time should I need to. I never take payment before I’m about to start work and I never pay myself before work is finished 👍
Before we begin, I would just like to state that this message is not aimed at anyone specific. People are free to run their business as they wish, however I am going to talk about a recurring artist issue in the fandom that could potentially be avoided with the right guidance.
Remember that Doberman suit, Jarvis, from early this year? He is now a handsome fullsuit!
Feet is from my usual feet paw pusher
@Fur_Delicious
rest by me.
Soft fur from the amazing
@HowlFabric
To celebrate two years of making sock paws I am giving away this pair of equine sock hooves! One size fit most. No shoe, glue or foam. 100% soft! To enter follow and RT. Winner covers shipping cost! Ends Friday. Good luck :)
Not every fursuit maker is also an artist. Don’t be discouraged to develop your own style. The fandom is only so big and trends follow the market too. Explore and develop. If someone takes inspiration from your work be proud, it’s the biggest compliment you can get.
The Fursuits making community would be vastly more interesting if people made them based off their own art style instead of based off other people’s suits 💁♀️ my soul purpose was to bring my art to life 💫
Togetherness, friendship, community, fun, adventures, family.
The Alpha Pack is all this and so so much more I can’t even begin to put into words. Thank you all for being such amazing people and one of the most important parts of my life.
See you all in April for Pack Weekend

It is with a heavy heart I have to tell you that the beloved Good Boy™, Flicker, has passed over the rainbow bridge. He lived a good and amazing dog life where he touched many hearts. He was and still is the real dog behind the company mascot. He will be missed. Run free boy 💙
