And more interesting and odd mangas we found… like Yagi the Bookshop Goat, written and illustrated by Fumi Furukawa. “In this tranquil world where all animals live in peace, carnivores and herbivores have an agreement to live amicably. Yagi is a goat who loves reading (and eating!) books; his dream is to become a bookstore clerk, but goats who eat paper aren’t exactly welcomed at places that sell books! But maybe he can charm Ookami, the scary wolf store manager into giving him a job…” That rather cute description doesn’t point out there are some (gentle) mature themes at play here, so be aware! This black & white graphic novel is available now from Tokyo Pop.

Eight new wolf variations have been added to the testing versions of Minecraft: Bedrock Edition beta and preview and Minecraft: Java Edition snapshot. These include: Pale, Rusty, Spotted, Black, Striped, Snowy, Ashen, Woods, and Chestnut. The developers of these newly released furry pal variations are looking for feedback as well.

Dyeable wolf armor is also available to test, and it's gotten an upgrade. Wolf armor absorbs all enemy damage until it breaks. Wolf-health-parity came with the most recent Bedrock Preview and Beta, meaning every wolf across both editions of Minecraft will now have 40 hearts when fully grown (Bedrock wolves only had 20 previously. Keeping your wolf armor in top condition will keep your wolf healthy while it’s adventuring by your side. Wolf armor that needs repairing will show cracks, and you can repair it using armadillo scutes.

Instructions for how to add these testable new wolf colors and armors are in the original Minecraft Article link below!

More manga we’ve stumbled across: My New Life As A Cat by Konomi Wagata. “Nao Kazushiro is a normal high school student — until he gets in a traffic accident and winds up in the body of a cat! At first, it’s all fun and games as he gets used to his new feline form, but then the novelty wears off and hunger sets in. Luckily, he’s picked up by Chika, a cute girl his age who gives him food and a home off the streets. Will Nao (now Nyao) develop feelings for her? Or will he wake up in his human body once and for all?” This new graphic novel series is available now from Seven Seas Entertainment.

Episode 553 - The 7 Fingered Furry

Sometimes maybe the publisher isn’t the best at describing a work. Here’s what they have to say about the new graphic novel Spero: “Taking up a defensive home base within the city of Vurgstraad, a council of ancient sorcerers have spent the last hundred years fending themselves off from a barrage of attacks by The House of Bayek. While three generations of Bayek have tried to destroy Vurgstraad, a counter-weapon was born within the heart of the city. A weapon with the ability to recapture the hearts of those once condemned to evil. A weapon known as The Heartbreaker. Hidden deep within a mysterious crystallized universe, a secret race of caretakers have waited for this weapon to be claimed by The Chosen One. A hero said to be the sole champion capable of wielding it. The Breaker of Hearts. The Healer of Worlds.” And, by the way, a rabbit. Somehow they skipped that part. But we’ll tell you! We’ll also mention it’s written by Garrett Gunn, illustrated by Martha Webby, and available now.

There’s something so perfectly fannish about a comic book series called Unicorn Vampire Hunter. It’s written by Caleb Palmquist and illustrated by Daryl Toh. “A young woman named Jezebel moves to a magical marsh to live with her uncle, Seamus the Wizard and his puppies that never grow old. One day, Jezebel wanders into the dark forest and almost falls victim to a vampire. Luckily, her life is saved by a unicorn, who gores the vampire with his horn, killing it. Jezebel and her uncle welcome the unicorn into their family, but things are about to get dicey…” Find out how in this new series from Scout Comics.

And so in a flash, the shortest month of the year has been and gone. Welcome to March, and the theoretical end of winter (or summer if you’re like me in the south!).

I know we were hoping to have the Coyotl Awards open for nominations at this stage, but there have been a couple of behind the scenes snags preventing this. We are hoping to have this resolved as soon as possible – nominations will be running until April, so there is still no shortage of time to have this resolved.

Update: The Coyotl Awards are now open for nominations. See here for more information: https://coyotlawards.com/2023-coyotl-awards/

Part of the reason for this has been the recent resignation of Maddison Scott-Clary from running the Coyotls. Maddie has been magnificent in keeping the Coyotls running over the last few years, but she has announced her intention to step down after completing her commitments to finish off the 2022 awards. The 2023 awards are primarily being handled by the FWG officers, but we will be opening up for a volunteer to take on Maddie’s role as the Coyotl Chair. To put yourself forward as a candidate, simply message myself (J.F.R. Coates) on telegram or discord.

Maddie has done a fantastic job with the Coyotls for a few years now. We look forward to having her successor in place to start the preparations for next year’s awards.

Everyone at the guild is hoping for the best for one of our members. Kirisis (K.C. Alpinus) has been hospitalised in Sweden while attending Nordic Fuzzcon. Her husband, Ocean has been providing updates on Twitter. We’re all hoping the best for Kirisis. I am sure any well-wishes would be gratefully received by Ocean in this difficult time.

I also wish to remind you that we are open for guest blogs across the year. Topics can relate to anything around the furry writing community or furry writing as a whole. Submissions to the blog can be made at this link:

https://forms.gle/icEUzYtZQ5tFE6w47

As usual, we have the current open markets:

We caught this announcement from several places. Here it is from World of Reel: “Pixar is developing a new movie, this one set to be the first musical in the toon company’s history. The movie is titled Ducks and its main characters are exactly what the title suggests. Pixar’s upcoming slate already includes Elio, Toy Story 5, and Inside Out 2 — the latter being released this summer, the other two in 2026. Ducks seems to be eyeing a 2027 launch.” You’ll know when we do!

Recently there was a major announcement from the world Magic: The Gathering, the famous fantasy card game. “Welcome to Valley, the bucolic and vibrant home to the animalfolk of Bloomburrow, Magic‘s first all-animal plane. It’s a place where big adventures await even the smallest who are bold, inquisitive, and heroic, while those with more homespun and peaceable yearnings can enjoy the tranquil life… But peace is endangered in Valley as the delicate balance of nature is threatened, and the elemental calamity beasts and the Great-Night Owl imperil the lives of its inhabitants… The animalfolk will have to band together to defend their homes. Led by Mabel, a mousefolk mother and reluctant hero, a party will strike out to investigate what has befallen a neighboring town. Along the way, they’ll be joined by a remarkable companion from a faraway land.” Keep up with the Wizards of the Coast to find out more.

Somehow we missed this new graphic novel, written and illustrated by Norwegian author Dina Norlund. “Syv is a snowcat and the youngest in a family of princes. When his father dies, Syv and his brothers are all in line for the throne. Eager to become kings themselves and wary of how well-liked Syv has become by the citizens, Syv’s brothers send him on a dangerous quest to find the long-lost magical crown that once belonged to their royal ancestor, the Eldking. Legend says that the snowcat who finds the crown will break the curse on their land and bring great honor to the family. But failure could mark Syv with three black stripes, and he’d be banished forever. Along his journey, Syv will face dangerous beasts, dark powers, and the ever-lurking sand foxes — sworn enemies to the snowcats. But when Syv discovers the truth about the legend of the Eldking and his magical crown, he’ll have to learn the new meaning of honor and find another way to break the curse.” The Snowcat Prince is available now from Oni Press.

Introduction

Welcome to your crash course in crafting the perfect set of chompers for your fursuit! Whether you’re aiming to create a grin that’s irresistibly cute or a snarl that’s delightfully fearsome, understanding how to make fursuit teeth is your ticket to elevating your character’s charisma. This guide is all about demystifying the process, ensuring that even beginners can tackle this project with confidence.

Section 1: Understanding Fursuit Teeth

At their core, fursuit teeth are the secret spice that adds flavor to your fursuit’s expression and personality. They’re not just about aesthetics; they’re about bringing your character’s inner world to the outside.

 

Definition and Role

 

Fursuit teeth are the bespoke dental details that give your fursuit’s smile its unique character. Whether you opt for subtle pearly whites or menacing fangs, these additions are key in portraying your character’s species, mood, and personality. It’s all about choosing the right bite to match your furry friend’s bark!

 

Types of Fursuit Teeth

 

Depending on your character’s vibe, you’ll find yourself choosing from a menu of styles:

 

Realistic: 

For those who want to keep it true to life, these teeth mirror the look of actual animals or humans.

 

Toony: 

Go big or go home! These exaggerated teeth are all about fun, adding a cartoonish charm to your suit.

 

Sharp:

Bring out the predator in your character with teeth that scream ‘fierce’.

 

Flat: 

Ideal for the gentle giants of the animal kingdom, flat teeth are all about a softer, kinder look.

Materials Overview

 

Picking the right material for your teeth is like choosing the right tool for a job. Each option has its perks:

 

Polymer Clay: 

 

A fan favorite for its flexibility and the fine detail you can achieve. Plus, it’s tough as nails after baking.

 

Resin: 

 

When you’ve got a winning design, resin lets you replicate it perfectly. It’s durable and customizable with paint or dye.

 

Foam: 

 

Light as a feather, foam is your go-to for those oversized, toony teeth that won’t weigh down your suit.

 

Thermoplastics: 

 

For those who like to play it by ear, these materials are moldable with heat and cool into a solid form, offering a nice balance between ease of use and durability.

 

Choosing your material is about balancing aesthetics, comfort, and practicality. As we move forward, we’ll guide you through each step of the teeth-making process, from sketching out your design to attaching those pearly whites to your fursuit. Get ready to bite into the fun of fursuit crafting!

Section 2: Designing Your Fursuit Teeth

Now that we’ve got the basics down pat, it’s time to sketch, scheme, and sculpt your way to the perfect fursuit teeth. This part of the journey is where your creativity gets to shine, so let’s dive in!

 

Planning Your Design

 

First up, grab your pencil and let your imagination run wild. Sketching your design before you start crafting is like drawing a treasure map; it guides you to your goal. Think about the character your fursuit represents:

 

Are they a sly fox with a cheeky grin?

 

A noble wolf with a dignified demeanor?

 

Maybe a fantastical dragon with teeth that spark fear and awe?

 

Your sketches will help you decide on the size, shape, and style of teeth that best fit your character’s personality. Remember, this is your creation—there are no wrong answers here!

 

Material Selection

 

With your design in hand, it’s time to choose your crafting companion, a.k.a., your material. Here’s a quick recap to help you decide:

 

• Polymer Clay is your go-to for detailed, hardy teeth.

 

• Resin works wonders for creating multiple copies of a single design.

 

• Foam keeps things light and is perfect for those exaggerated, cartoon-style teeth.

 

• Thermoplastics offer a happy medium, being easy to shape and solid in form.

 

• Consider not just the look you’re going for but also think about the weight and feel of the material in the suit. Comfort is key, after all!

Safety Considerations

 

A little PSA before you get down to business: safety first! Whether you’re baking, molding, or sculpting, make sure you’re doing it in a well-ventilated area. And always, always read and follow the safety instructions of the materials you’re using. Crafting is a lot less fun with a side of ouch or whoops.

 

Bringing Your Design to Life

 

With your design sketched and your material picked, it’s time to bring those teeth out of your imagination and into the world. Whether you’re molding, sculpting, or carving, keep your sketches close and your creativity closer. This is your moment to play god (or dentist) and craft the bite that brings your character to life.

 

Remember, perfection is not the goal here—expression is. So if your first attempt isn’t quite what you envisioned, no sweat! Every mistake is just a stepping stone to mastering the art of fursuit teeth making.

 

Stay tuned for the next chapter, where we’ll walk through the step-by-step process of crafting those gnashers, from initial sculpt to final attachment. Get ready to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty (figuratively speaking, of course)—it’s going to be a blast!

• Consider not just the look you’re going for but also think about the weight and feel of the material in the suit. Comfort is key, after all!

Commissioning a fursuit has never been so easy!

Alright, creative crafters, it’s showtime! You’ve got your design, you’ve chosen your champion material, and now it’s time to get hands-on. Follow these steps to turn that sketch into a snazzy set of fursuit teeth that will make your character smile, snarl, or smirk with style.

 

Step 1: Creating the Mold (If Applicable)

 

If you’re going down the resin route, you’ll start with a mold. Think of it as the blueprint for your masterpiece.

 

Sculpt Your Masterpiece: 

 

Using a material like clay, sculpt the tooth exactly how you want your final product to look.

 

Make Your Mold: 

 

Once your sculpture is just right, use silicone mold-making material to create a mold. Pour the silicone over your sculpted tooth, following the product’s instructions to a T.

 

Cure Time: 

 

Patience is a virtue. Let the mold cure as directed before moving on to casting your teeth.

 

Step 2: Sculpting or Molding

 

For those using polymer clay, foam, or thermoplastics, you’ll sculpt or cut your teeth directly from your material of choice.

 

Polymer Clay: 

 

Get kneading and sculpt the teeth based on your design. Use tools to add details and texture as needed.

 

Foam: 

 

Draw the tooth shape on your foam, then cut it out with precision. You can use sandpaper to smooth edges or shape the foam further.

 

Thermoplastics: 

 

Heat the material according to instructions, mold it to your desired shape, and let it cool into its final form.

Step 3: Baking or Setting

 

Polymer Clay: 

 

Once you’re happy with your sculpted teeth, bake them in the oven according to the clay manufacturer’s instructions. This step is where clay turns into durable teeth.

 

Resin Casting: 

 

Mix and pour your resin into the silicone molds you’ve created, then wait for it to set. Voilà, you’ve got teeth!

 

Step 4: Painting and Finishing Touches

 

Now for the makeup phase, where your teeth get their final look.

 

Painting: 

 

If your material isn’t the color you desire or you’re looking to add details, now’s the time to paint. Use acrylics for polymer clay and resin teeth. Just a few strokes can add that much-needed realism or cartoon effect.

 

Sealing: 

 

Apply a sealant to protect your paint job and give your teeth a glossy or matte finish, depending on your character’s needs.

 

Step 5: Attaching to Your Fursuit

 

You’re in the home stretch! Attach your teeth to the fursuit head using strong adhesive (for hard materials) or by sewing them in place (if you’re using foam). Ensure they’re secure and positioned just right to capture your character’s expression perfectly.

 

And there you have it! Step back and admire your handiwork. Whether your fursuit character is a cheeky trickster with a mischievous grin or a noble beast with a regal smile, those teeth you’ve just crafted are the cherry on top of a fantastic creation.

 

Next up, we’ll share some pro tips and tricks to make the process even smoother and your results even more impressive. Stay tuned, and remember, practice makes perfect—and a bit of playful experimentation makes the journey all the more fun!

Congratulations on making it this far! By now, you’ve got a snazzy set of teeth ready to bring your fursuit’s smile, snarl, or smirk to life. But before we part ways, let’s dive into some insider tips and tricks to elevate your fursuit teeth crafting game. These nuggets of wisdom will help you avoid common pitfalls and achieve a professional finish, even on your first try.

 

Embrace the Power of Reference Images

 

Never underestimate the power of a good reference image. Whether you’re aiming for realism or cartoonish charm, having a visual guide can be incredibly helpful. Study images of real animals or artwork to understand how teeth are shaped and how they sit in the mouth. This can inspire your design and help you nail those intricate details.

 

Practice Patience in Sculpting and Curing

 

Patience truly is a virtue in crafting. Take your time when sculpting or molding your teeth. Rushing can lead to mistakes that are hard to correct later. Similarly, give your materials—whether it’s clay, resin, or thermoplastics—the proper time to cure or set. Trying to speed up the process can compromise the quality and durability of your teeth.

 

Experiment with Textures and Finishes

 

Adding texture can make a world of difference in the final look of your teeth. For instance, subtle indentations on polymer clay can mimic the natural grooves of teeth. When painting, consider using a mix of gloss and matte finishes to create a more lifelike appearance, especially if you’re going for realism.

Secure Attachment Is Key

 

When attaching the teeth to your fursuit head, ensure they’re not just aesthetically pleasing but also securely fastened. Loose teeth can be a distraction and may even pose a choking hazard. Test different adhesives to find one that works best with your materials, or if sewing, make sure your stitches are tight and hidden.

 

Maintenance Matters

 

Lastly, remember that your fursuit teeth, like the rest of your suit, require care and maintenance. Clean them gently after use, especially if they’re painted, to keep them looking sharp for your next event. Store them in a way that avoids pressure or strain, which could lead to cracks or breaks.

 

Learn from Every Project

 

Each set of teeth you create is an opportunity to learn and improve. Don’t be discouraged by imperfections; instead, view them as stepping stones towards mastering the craft. Share your work with the community, seek feedback, and learn from the experiences of fellow fursuit makers.

 

Armed with these tips and a bit of practice, you’ll be well on your way to crafting fursuit teeth that add the perfect touch to your furry creations. Remember, the journey of crafting is as rewarding as the final product. So keep experimenting, keep learning, and above all, keep having fun with it!

We love the first line of this description: “In a world where nightmares are more than just bad dreams, stuffies are the last line of defense against the things that go bump in the night. When Becky Burns experiences a great loss, a stuffie named Fenny is assigned to protect her. But Fenny soon realizes that she may be in over her head, and it may be more than just monsters that Becky is facing.” Keepsakers: Defenders of the Dark is a new black & white graphic novel written and illustrated by Tayson Martindale (the artist behind Thunderfrog). It’s available now in paperback from Invader Comics.
