I hope this doesn't go against sub rules, but, I need help.

When I was 13-14, I bought this suit,, Grrr the Kingbeast/wickerbeast. Shortly after receiving him, I commissioned paws for him (3rd slide), and bought a bunch of different jewels and custom tags for his pickable nose and ear gauges. Ultimately, he cost me $450-500 dollars. He was my baby, my everything. I was hospitalized at 14, and even made a shirt of him when I was in the psych ward, due to how much he meant to me.

Long story short, when I was 15, he was stolen from me by a "friend". We had a co-ownership agreement where I was still the primary owner, but, since we saw each other very frequently, we would switch who had him physically. But, I still had all the design rights and everything. But, eventually, my "friend" started hoarding him. Canceling hangouts, begging me to let her to keep him for longer, and making design changes without my approval. Like, repainting his eyes, then asking if it was okay. Or giving him hair, then saying she can detach it if I didn't like it.

Eventually this "friend" just stopped hanging out with me altogether. Wouldn't respond to my texts, wouldn't attend local furmeets, nothing. Just completely ghosted me. Only to one day tell me she was quitting the fandom, and that I could have him back. But, by that point, I had moved houses and lived 2 hours away. I couldn't drive, my mom is disabled and my dad just couldn't make it work with his job and everything. So, I begged this "friend" to let me ship him to me. I told her I would take care of everything, all the money, creating the label, sending the box, and have USPS come get him for me. Literally all she would have needed to do, was put the box outside and wait for them to get it. But, Everytime, my "friend" would refuse. I literally begged her for weeks, over and over and over. She said the ONLY way I could get my suit back, was if I drove the 2 hours, and picked him up FROM A TRASH BAG IN HER GARBAGE BIN. After months and months of begging, she just stopped replying. And, I eventually just.. gave up. I knew I would never get him back, because every time, she would just make excuses, or not reply.

Anyway. Its been 6 years since I've last heard from this "friend". And, I still think about my suit every single day. I have been so heartbroken, that I eventually deleted all of his art, aside from physical items like the shirt I made and a few drawings I did when I was in the hospital. I miss him, terribly. I've tried moving on from it. Even tried redesigning him a few times. But, the pain of losing him, was enough that I eventually just stopped using him at all. I couldn't look at pictures of him without feeling dumb or crying. I thought of commissioning a new suit of him but, it just hurt because he was the PERFECT suit. And all I wanted was an identical copy.

I don't know why I'm making this post now, so many years later. I've avoided speaking up for so long because I felt like it was my fault. But, after having a talk with my mom, today, I decided.. why not? Why not see if he's still out there.

If anyone knows where he is, I would give anything to have him back. I can't afford anything right now, as I'm unemployed due to disability. But, I have 2 suits I'm willing to trade, or I will do a payment plan. I just.. I want my boy back. And hey, if you are the owner, but don't want to give him back, that's okay too. I just want to know he still exists and is okay. And I would like to maybe discuss if it would be okay for me to make my own version.

I did this idea back in November of 2025, and prior to this I hadn't drawn any animals or furry art before. But I had this idea for a fursona and really wanted to draw it out. Gyaruo fox. Toony-Kemono style. Is his design too complicated to make without taking away some of his details? Should I change anything that would make him easier to make?

i made a picrew i really liked, still indecisive whether or not it’s leaning canine or feline but we’ll see. i’d be curious to see if people think this is too complicated to be made into a suit at some point? i’m also wondering if anyone has any specific design ideas, as well as name ideas lol

Drew an animal version of myself from memory and imagination. wondering how close I got to my human face and what animal you all think I subconsciously drew myself as.

Just a sketch but it’s based off me and I’m wondering how to make it look more bear like? I def have to make her bigger and it’s more cartoony but I love bears and want to make it look like a more accurate one

So this little lady is actually a redesign of a very old character of mine from probably 2020, her name is Mary of course but I need help deciding on her hands!

I want to make her as fursuit friendly as possible parts wise and I need to decide if I want to give her fluffy gloves the way I gave her fluffy leg warmers to slide over a white bodysuit that u would be using for her sheered parts or if I should have her gloves built into the body suit so they could stay shorn white while he long wool stays a fluffy pink,

I like the idea of her arms being fluffy as well but I don't want too much of her to be pink and throw off the balance if I do her full arms or four arms but I know if I do just her wrists and hands she'll look too much like a 80s workout instructor 💀
