Okay, I'll start this off by saying this isn't really related to furry, so please ignore and move on if you don't care. The mods will probably hide this for the same reason, but I only really have 2-3 days to finish this.

So, story goes like this, my dad buys things for himself because he sees a new shiny thing he likes (Which in this story is an iPad air) and he uses it. Turns out, he doesn't want it and passes it to my mother, who has never asked for it, and even specified that the iPad air would be only for him and him only(because she knows that he does stupid shit like this.) My dad is now furious for some reason after a trip with my grandmother and my mother, and is now requesting(ordering) my mother to sell of the iPad air. And fast. My dad always likes to buy and sell things and cause huge losses to our family and then blames it on us(Mother, Me, Brother.) And we can't talk back to him because he's well, father.

My mom only knows one person she can sell it off to, but she'll be making a huge loss of $600. So i'm coming to you, /r/furry (because I'll probably get ignored and screwed over in other, bigger subreddits) to ask if any of you would like to purchase a one month old iPad air, 16GB, Wi-fi Cellular, painted black for about $800. It has a Leather Casing costing $118. Shipping will be the buyer's side to pay, and the pricing will be told through Private Messages. We'ld obviously still be making a loss of $200+, but at least it won't be as crazy as $600.

$ = SGD, not USD, sorry.

(No, this isn't life and death horrible help needed, which is why i stated the title as slight help needed. I don't need comments telling me that my situation isn't as bad as their life.)

TL;DR: Shopaholic dad buys and sells shit, ruins family funding, blames it on us. Currently selling an iPad air with Wi-fi, 16GB storage and is painted black for $800, comes with a leather casing($118). Shipping is paid by buyer, will discuss shipping prices in PM.

Please will some users of secondlife give me a good description of what secondlife is, in the furry part of it any way.

A constellation of animal imagery from an alternate future. Not your grandmother’s zodiac.

Zodion

Indiegogo

Because I’m about to spend 200-300 words gushing over this project, I’ve got to get this out of my system: “Zodion” is just a bit snickerable, so far as names go. It puts me in mind of a prescription painkiller. There, I’ve said it, I can move on now.

When she’s not creating names for Big Pharmaco, artist Tori Meader illustrates the stars.

Or at least, the zodiac. Possibly zodiacs.

Meader’s project, recently launched as a two-week blitz campaign on Indiegogo, is a richly-colored fantastic/futuristic vision of the zodiac’s sparkling cast of characters. It’s remarkably fur-friendly, or at least animal-lover friendly. In addition to reimagining the twelve starsigns as technobionic mixtures of organic and electronic (and electroluminescent) elements, crafting personalities for them, and illustrating them in amazing and rich color, she’s also taken the liberty of arting away the human elements. Her zodiac vision is fresh and amazing–but I am going to miss the centaur.

Meader’s intent is a complete revision of a stale zodiac filled with critters and symbols from dusty myth, livening up the starsigns with new imagery and freedom for personal interpretation. She’s off to an amazing start, though purists may find it hard to relate to her imagery. I’m reasonably with-it on my mythology, and had to check the filename to figure out what the hyena represented. It’s Sagittarius the Archer, and except for a certain warlike attitude and sense of speed and motion, the original’s been completely subsumed into Meader’s world. I’m okay with that, though, I really like hyenas.

As for the project itself, It seems like a sound one–enough funding to launch and sustain a web-based store for a year or two. Lots of prints and stickers and such for supporters, with tribal reinterpretations of the zodiac glyphs and Meader’s unique cosmos critters as well (all of which you can find on the Zodion gallery). Stretch goals? There aren’t any…yet, and with a slow start and tight deadline this might not be the campaign for them. But after setting her sights to the stars Meader’s thinking of turning to the other zodiacs. I look forward to seeing what her brush will do with the Chinese starsigns.

I’m also willing to model for “dog” if she needs the help. Call me.

Rizzo Michelle’s Custom Art Doll Ponies

Indiegogo

Disney’s “Maleficent”

It’s sort of a case of parallel evolution. Once there was a mom who saw some vintage My Little Pony figures, and said, “…I could make art out of that.”

Which, of course, is what the Brony community has been doing with Friendship is Magic for the last few years, though mostly in digital spaces and forums and a big, sloppy fandom.

Inspired by the designer toy movement, and her own love of crafting–Rizzo Michelle, the mom in question, had a small business hopping around street fairs and events to share her crafts already–she took the next step and went into the comic fandom with her art dolls, to much applause. And, someday, BronyCon.

One of the highlights of surfing for tangentially furry crowdfunding projects is seeing the voices outside our community and the roads they took to the same destination. I have this image of the big golden gates of BronyCon opening up and pegasi with trumpets tootling Michelle’s entrance, because that’s got to be some kind of a homecoming when it happens.

Ultimately, that happy homecoming is the point of Michelle’s Indiegogo campaign–fundraising for supplies and vendor fees, and maybe, someday, the resources to launch that toy line. The work she’s got already is pretty fun stuff, vinyl sculpting, fur and fabric and resin to build out vintage ponies into a wide variety of pop culture icons–a stooped and glowering Darth Vader with a glossy cape and cowl; The Dark Night, Catwoman, and Harley Quinn, even a “Ludo” from Labyrinth and vine-and-fur  Pan from Pan’s Labyrinth. Great stuff, and totally worth a look!

Pan’s Labyrinth

One flaw in Michelle’s IGG campaign is the reward point pricing. For custom, unique pieces of art, the price points aren’t unreasonable. Who am I to judge the cost of a really convincing “Frank the Bunny from Donny Darko” My Little Pony mod? Are there even price guides for that sort of thing? But there’s a bit of sticker shock when you compare to the prices on her website. If you just want a Maleficent Pony of your own, you may want to bop over to The Pinup Chronicles and nab yours there. Of course, crowdfunding is as much about supporting art and artists as it is shopping for Christmas, but it’s worth pointing out the difference. And this may be the only way to get a custom piece. Deadpool pony, anyone?

Here’s hoping we get to see Michelle’s work at Nightmare Nights next year, I really want to get my paws on that Darth Vader!

I have been planning on making my own fur suit for a while now and I cant find any stores that sells fur. I have looked at both my local walmart and michaels and they dont have it. Does anyone know where I can buy some?

Author: Dear Papabear, Thank you reading this letter. After reading your replies to my previous letters, my problems became easier to deal with, and I can’t thank you enough for all the help you provided. You’re great!

So I've finally decided to get a collar, but I have no idea where! Do I simply go to a petstore, or should I buy one online? My fellow furries, where did you get your collars and what do you reccommend? Thanks!
