Hey :3

Earlier this summer I became a freelance costumer specializing in fursuits/quadsuits. I have been doing freelance illustration since the end of 2010 (had to close commissions because costume work has kept me so busy!!). I love pretty much all creative things :3 I have dabbled in making Ball Jointed Dolls (My second 'Nana' is nearing completion and hopefully I can get him cast in resin!!) my latest venture is a pose-able art doll for my grandmother.

Personally I am very much interesting in making these tails - just for myself mind you - taking them on as a business venture is indeed too much onto my plate! I have so many personal costumes (namely my fursona quadsuits) that I want to create so I anticipate a good few years before I can craft a tail. I am determinately good at picking out challenging projects for myself, costumes that alter your shape.

I am a cosplayer and furry, I am also asexual :3 le gasp! an asexual furry! Also I cant swim much and have a fear of water going on my face, this will definitely make for a learning experience! When I do eventually get my but into gear in making a tail (will be a silicone one) I doubt very much that I will be doing dives into the ocean.... things live there o.o also... Scotland is not the warmest places to go for a dip lol
You can see examples of my costumes at the sites linked on my profile (I'll refrain from direct linking at the moment as I have not finished reading the rules :3 yes I read it all XD).

Currently I live in fife, I just moved from Glasgow and miss it dearly. I need to save up (and finish commissions) and find a place that will let me take my cat Lucifur with me before I move back x.x hopefully next winter I will be there :3

Personal interests, costume aside, I am interested in Japan, Anime, Manga, Yaoi, Drawing, Painting, Reading, Writing (I have a merman novel to finish called 'Splash!' from my high school days :D not sure if its everyone's cup of tea!), Mold Making and Casting, Sewing (obviously!) and generally everything and anything creative! OH! and Tea o.o cant do without it! cranberry juice too now that I think of it!

I cant think of much else to say, any questions I'll answer to the best of my ability :3

Thankyou for having me here, I hope to make many new friends!!

Hello! Hope you get around to your silicone tail, sounds like it will be great! And there is also a thread around here somewhere comparing mers and furries, i feel like it would interest you! Hope you like it here with us!

We have another member here who is asexual and I know she'd REALLY appreciate knowing another member who is open about it like you seem to be :) I sent her a link to your post so she could say Hi too.

Welcome to the forum! My family is first generation Scottish on one side and Irish on the other. Sadly, I've never been to either place though I am planning a trip to spread by Grandma's ashes. Not to be all morbid or anything haha

Im actually surprised we don't have more bjd creators on the forum since I see so many mermaids online. I'd love to see some of your work
