Sixth Leaf Clover (also known as the artist Christina Yen) has made quite a name for herself with her paintings of fantastically-colored dragons. She’s even written a book about her coloring techniques. Her latest project is a calendar for 2014 — full color of course, featuring a new and different dragon design for each sign of the Western Zodiac. She’s taking pre-orders (and showing samples) at her web site right now.

Holy buckets have I let this go on too long without posting it!

So, a couple of weeks back, Kyo went to Rainfurest where he hooked up with Tugs from Fur What It’s Worth and they did a live show. It was a bit of a scream. (See what I did there? Halloween is not too far off… scream… get it?)

We had been having some issues with our feed reaching iTunes so we wanted to make sure that was working properly again. From there… well… dragon procrastination.

Anyway, here it is! Hope you enjoy it!

Go give Tugs and Roo a listen!

(If this should go somewhere else tell me, thanks)
Hey there. Little nervous about making my first post here, but I guess I'll just put what I need to. Heard of the furries a while back when I was getting into wolves and wolf art, and it made me feel good to know there are people like me. Recently accepted myself as a modest fur, but just wanted to kind of state that I exist in this community, if thats okay. If there is anything I should know about being furry, sharing it with me is appreciated :)
Also, some Crappy Wolf Art I sketched. I Have some of an art background, but skills aren't so good, but I guess I will share it. Thanks guys for listening, I just wanted to say something.

For those that care

The premise of the comic is about the life and love life of a male escort, set in a world where all characters are dogs. It sounds like the kind of slice-of-reality mixed with down-to-earth humour that characterises many British works.

One interesting aspect that stood out, when asked about how much of a contentious issue it was getting a book about gay sex workers published: 

There wasn’t resistance particularly, but I think several places weren’t sure how to categorise it or market it when most of the comics about gay people’s sex lives are overtly pornographic and not character led (Steve McIsaac’sShirtlifter books being a lovely example of being both, mind you).
It’s fair to say a lot more people worried about offending people than there were people offended. Distributors feared publishers might not support a title like this, publishers feared retailers might not support it and some retailers feared an audience might not be there for it. In the end, I think that caution was a little excessive and there’s been a great audience and lots of support - right from the start when I had to beg for support though crowd-funding to pay for it.

This is a conundrum with no easy answers for everyone involved. Having that many stray dogs on the streets is neither good for the dogs nor for the safety of the public, yet from a practical stand point what is the solution that provides the best balance between being humane for the dog, being cost efficient and bringing reliable results? It seems where one solution excels at one criteria it is at the cost of the other.

Yet on top of that, if dogs are on a level similar to human infants in brain intellect…

How quite I never saw this on tele 3 months ago I’m not sure. I would say it looks very much like animatronics rather than CGI.

Juliet was working at The Escarpment vineyard in Martinborough when she collided online with the furry subculture, and her unique skill base and creative temperament came out to play."I found my niche market when I was introduced to the furry community. I already liked making costumes as a kid, you know, I'd make really weird costumes when I was 12 for Halloween or to go to Armageddon. Then I fell in with the furries and they had fursuits.

A good article overall, serving a duel purpose of interviewing Sparky of Sparky Can Do and talking about the furry fandom.

Two quibbles I have is how the article shoehorns the murrsuit aspect of the fandom early on, which feels out of place with the rest of the piece that is otherwise focused on Sparky’s development as a crafter. Second problem is they do not extend the courtesy of linking back to Sparky’s website, not even her Facebook.

My favourite photo is the fox pouncing on its prey, showing off evolutionary design iteration at its finest, by that I mean the photo captures in a moment the elegance of the fox and how every aspect of its body has been tuned to maximise survival.

He had found this fox, his first ever, on his last day in the park. It was so absorbed in hunting that Connor had plenty of time to get out of the car and settle behind a rock. It quartered the grassland, back and forth, and then started staring intently at a patch of ground, giving Connor just enough warning of the action to come. When it sprung up, Connor got his shot. And when it landed, the fox got his mouse.
