Demiboy (left) nonbinary (right)

Demiboy (dark grey, light grey, light blue, white, light blue, light grey, dark grey)

Demiboy is a gender identity under the nonbinary spectrum of identities where a person identifies as more masculine, but not fully with masculinity, as a man.
Specifically a person may feel partially but not fully the specific gender, hence demi.

Nonbinary (yellow, white, purple, black)

Nonbinary is a gender identity (and spectrum of identities) where a person may not feel fully one gender or another, may feel both, or may feel a mix of different things. Nonbinary individuals also fall under the trans umbrella as transgender individuals are people who's gender identity does not match what's assigned at birth)

It's in purple, black, and green with purple mesh on the sides of the body.
The purple and green are being made of stretch crushed velvets for grip, while the black is a spandex stretch. The skin colour areas will be illusion mesh panels which make it appear as several pieces on the body but protect the skin with movement.

This one will be the one I make for my joyfriend and is the one I sketched at their place over the weekend.

Bottom right shoes a closeup in the mouth of the plush teeth

Shows the finished quilt with its purple satin matching pillow cases finally on the bed it's made for. The quilt was made larger than a standard twin (which this bed is) in order to give not only a nice drape, but to give ample cuddle room when under for the night.
The edges of the pillow cases are trimmed with extra rainbow peacock feather print which was used for the quilts backing fabric.
Their walls are a pale green and they have a few anime and green lantern posters hung on the wall

The video shows me standing (all gothed up) on a brick wall in front of the garage wall. I'm unrolling the finished peacock quilt to show the intricate piecing in greens and purples. With some black and small pink accents.
On the wall behind me are barn quilt tiles in warm colours, and at the end of the video Annie (the border Collie) happily runs up to check it out too!

Shows a sketch of different options for the "American ditches cape" "1912 women's wrap cape" (it has several names but the original was made in 1912 by an unknown maker.

This shows 4 colour options done in a moody gothic feel with black wool for the outer fabric, silk tafetas for the interior fabric, and a trim of fur at the neck of the collar.
They come in red, magenta, purple, and green but are named "Dracula, belladonna, imperial. And absinthe" respectively.
There are also colour and material swatches for all options both next to each colour sketch, and at the bottom of the image.
At the top corner is a picture from front and side of one I made in black wool with a grey and black bats print cotton interior and purple fur at the collar.
The name I've given them is "The Vampira Cape" (vam - pira)

Pic of cat for visibility.

The photo shows an orange and white cat very happily napping on a blue and white Minnesota flag quilt, on top of a larger folded quilt below it.
He's laying in a loaf position with his head laying down in a resting position and looks incredibly happy with himself

Shows a Minnesota flag based blue quilt. It's a wall hanging with light blue borders and "NO ICE" at the bottom.
The flag is stood to look like a house with a sawtooth star at the top and a rainbow heart at the top corner of the "house"

It's long armed over the whole thing with "fuck ice" in cursive and was done by another local quilter to me.
The back is a solid navy blue, shown in the next pic.
The binding is a deep blue with silver snow flakes

Shows a quilt top finished (only part of it cause it's so big, and it's not even that big)
Colours are purples, greens, some black.
The theme is peacocks and there are feather blocks made by piecing different fabrics.
The quilt is set up with the feathers standing "on point" or on the diamond and the pattern of the finished thing creates sawtooth stars and black squares all centering the individual feathers.
The center 4 are blue/green and the other 8 are purple/pink.
This quilt will be finished with purple binding and a rainbow peacock feather print backing fabric.
The quilts size is an XL twin at about 78"W×90"L.
This thing was an ass load of work but so worth it getting to the final stretch!
I can't wait to gift it to the friend who will be receiving it, and is also eager to have it

Shows Ghost, my personal fursuit, the opossum. Specifically his head on my work table. He has updated eyes and finally some plush teeth installed giving him a silly smile.
His new eyes are more up to date with the style I draw my critter in having stylized peuples in a bean shape. The eyes are each a solid colour throughout with one side being green. The other purple.
The eyeliner is a stylized shape made of black glitter foam

How's an art piece depicting one of the recent moon photos taken by the Artemis 2 team on their mission to orbit the dark side.
This is a "full disk" shot with the face illuminated. Taken with a special camera lens, it allowed us to see the moon in colour for the very first time!
There's lots of marbled colours in various blues, purples, greens and yellows, reds and oranges, even some pinks!
This is a drawing (digital) that I did based on that photo.
There's text on top and bottom that says " if we can't take love into the Stars, why bother going at all?"
The text is in 3 colours to create 3 meanings.
The first meaning is the full text, based off of a comment I saw on the Carroll crater naming.
The second meaning uses the pink and orange parts and reads " if we love the Stars, bother going"
The last and final part is in orange and reads " Love the Stars, go"
The background isn't total blackness. There's subtle hints of stars and a soft glow behind the moon making it appear bright, and pulling the eyes focus centered on the moon itself.

Shows from behind, the suit top, pants, and tail on the maniquin (from the side angle of the padded out leg)
The body too has a tail cuff sewing to it that hides the join of the tail (and allows the top of the body to fit over the tail and pants when worn!
Look at all those bright feathers too!
Both arms and the tail top have them.
When the feet are made. They will also have feathers! (That will be interesting to figure out ofc) ←stay tuned for the paws being made soon! Hands and feet have to be made for them! (Oh, the claws are gonna be a shiny purple!) 🥰👀
