We are SO sleeping on how weird prehistoric fishes are. Like our legged fish ancestors or armored placoderms like Dunkleosteus are weird in their own way but they have nothing on them

Pycnodonts: literally any body shape they want that uncanny valley except some genera that look like normal trevallies

(Rostropycnodus, Stenoprotome, Gladiopycnodus, Maraldichthys by Joshua Knüppe)

Holocephali: cartiliginous fish closely related to chimaeras, which means they are relatives to sharks.

(Traquairius agkistrocephalus, Belantsea, and Squaloraja by Stanton F. Fink, Iniopterygidae by Ray Troll)

Anthrocon fish suggestions!

I have plans to make these fish again as well as a catfish, gar, sturgeon and dunky!

What fish do you want to see me make? 🎣

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth, it was a record breaker for our business after taking a hit from the move we are back on our feet because of FWA. I'm so grateful & full of love.

I got to see my big sister & she had such an amazing time at her second furry con. I'm sad it's over.

Heads up on the fish for FWA!

When I had the fish at AC they sold out in the first hour and many people didn't get a chance to see them & asked about them the whole weekend. I want to try something different & have them out for fri. & half of Sat. As display only and then make them available to purchase at a certain time , first come first serve.

These are handmade, I cannot mass produce them nor do I want to. I only have a handful made & I apologize if you don't get a chance to get one. I do hope to allow/give a fair chance to everyone for those can't attend friday because they work, or any other reason. (For anyone unable to attend FWA I will have them in the online shop at some point to!)

Do you think this would be good?

Good afternoon!

I saw on your post of your felt arapaima piece that you’d mentioned adjusting the pattern— do you block all your patterns yourself? Additionally, do you have any plans to sell sewing patterns in the future?

Have a lovely day!

Hello!

Yes, I make all the patterns myself!

I am currently working on my first "selling" pattern. I've never made a tutorial before so I am trying to get it user friendly as I think my work flow can be a bit... Chaotic? spontaneous?

Maybe I am being hard on myself but regardless I hope to have patterns in the shop soon!

I have the jester beanie hat in works and the whale plush as well. For the fish I am unsure right now.

Since the video got crunched here is a photo!

All the fish so far that will be ready for FWA!

I love making these so much, it will be hard to say goodbye but I know they will go to loving homes🎣💕
