Thank you! And yes, I did receive the note. As of right now, I'm not sure if we're getting a hotel room because we just drove from our house every day last year, so if we are in fact staying at the hotel this year, it will probably be a friend's room, BUT! I will let you know if we end up getting one for my sister and boyfriend, yah?

Dude, this is awesome! They look fantastic. I bet they were very impressive at the performance. What kind of fur did you use? It sort of looks like it has reddish-pink tinges in some spots.

Thank you very much!
I actually had to airbrush most of it, and in abnormal colors too, so that way it would look good in theatrical lighting. I used a medium pile gray fur, and for the other two I used longpile fur that was brown with gray and black hairs here and there. To make it shorter, we bought dog shears and I shaved the muzzle and mouths of all three; it dulled the blade! Oh my!
But yeah, airbrushed with red, purple, lighter gray, light brown, and dark brown. I highlighted the higher points by using pearl color. SHABAM then it was done.


WOW THAT WAS A LONG COMMENT

Ah, that makes loads of sense. I totally forgot about how you'd have to do stuff to work with the theatrical lighting. Very cool!
Keep up all the good work! You're doing super amazing! 8D

They were worn by the dancers in the production! Everyone was like, awesomified. It was..... awesome.
I have them with me right now, but I'm going to return them to the studio prop closet when I'm done taking pictures.
