Here are photos of Tina's Magpie Wolf. This wolf is named NIGHTFALL. First photo is with fur on the face fluffed out and 2nd is fur smoothed down. Smoothed down makes the head look more proportionate, but I don't think I want to make his head smaller? But I would make his legs longer and thicker! He looks a little stunted to me. And I want the ear on the right to be pointy like the left one.
And for reference here is Seven's current prototype of NIGHTSTAR the Magpie Wolf. The ears are being made bigger and muzzle is being fixed. The nose faces up and not forward right now. The photos they sent me were very dark. Excuse the 2nd photo, they edited some pictures for me. I just asked for some pictures in good lighting and they sent me that. I do not approve of AI in any way.
And here are Tina's and Seven's next to each other! Please note, Seven's is a B grade manufactured one from my last batch. He's got the the wrong ears and some string showing on his muzzle plus the old nose. This is mainly for size comparison.
And here is Tina's coyote pigeon, ARIA. She is honestly so perfect! I just love her. Her front legs will be made just a smidgen longer. Like 1 inch is all she needs. It looks great now, but when I pick her up they just seem a bit short.
And here is Seven's coyote pigeon, LYRIC. His eyes are a bit sunken in so I had to really move the fur out of the way. Not sure if I should go for bigger eyes? I think they are the right size as is! Muzzle build is perfection. Ears could maybe be slightly bigger and taller, but I could just be being picky. I am SO happy with him overall!
And some side by side pics
-Sizes Nightfall (Tina's Magpie) is 36 inches nose to tail tip. Nightstar (Seven's Magpie) is 30 inches from nose to tail tip. Aria (Tina's Coyote) is 34 inches from nose to tail tip. Lyric (Seven's Coyote) is 30 inches from nose to tail tip. -All will weigh 4.5 lbs. -Fur wise, Tina's wolves have a thicker, longer fur that is luxuriously soft. Seven's fur is shorter, but still very soft like a rabbit. -Both styles are floppy, but Seven's are definitely more floppy and cuddly. -Tina's have firmer wings, ears, neck, and head. Seven's are completely squishable and soft. I have a video on my instagram for a more visual reference of the two versions!
And here are their hang tag designs! They will have foil stamping like the fox ones (the front and the Bold text on the back). I am calling Seven's version the "Snuggle Series"
Surveys will be going out sometime this week!
You will be able to select either Tina's or Seven's version in your surveys. If you are uncomfortable committing to any plush you are more than welcome to wait to fill out your survey. I will share finalized pics of all plush once I have them. There is no time limit. I've had people fill pin surveys months after I've fulfilled everyone's orders. All the wolf plush, however, will be limited. I will do my best to order extra, but Tina's are expensive so I won't be able to order many extras unless people plan on ordering more add-ons in the surveys.
PREORDER PEOPLE If you ordered Magpie wolf or coyote pigeon from my preorder store I had to select a default variation. Magpie Wolf will be Seven's version. Coyote Pigeon will be Tina's. If you need to change this please email me at [email protected].
Wolves will not go into production until the end of February when I receive final pay in 4 payments. Production will begin in March probably and I expect them to take 30-60 days max to be finished. Plus another 30 days to come to me from overseas.
I am waiting for an update on the foxes from Tina still. I know they were trying to have Red fox, Magpie, Oriole, and Barn Owl finished before the Chinese new year which starts right about now. My guess is they will come back from break and finish them next month! *EDIT* Tina expects to have all foxes finished and shipped by March 20th
PINS. I am reordering some of my feathered fox pins because inventory is low. I am having my current pin manu make the older designs (series 1) for me now: Sparrow, Kestrel, and Magpie. I am looking forward to them being a better quality. Slight color differences may be noted, but they will still remain true to my vision. They will also be 1-2mm bigger to match my series 2 better (Snowy, Crow, and Barn owl). Small things I don't think anyone will notice, but info to have if you want it!
SHIPPING. shipping prices have gone up slightly for US and Canada peeps, like $1-5. It's gone up roughly 5-20 dollars for Australia and Europe people depending on pledge level and country. I'm so sorry! Please note, even with this change I am covering some shipping expense out of pocket for Australia and Europe. Some prices should still be $15-20 more than I am charging, but I just can't do that. If you have any issues or problems with this please reach out to me!
As always, any question please ask! I am here to help. My email is [email protected] or instagram is @featheredfoxden. Or you can comment below :)
And here are some photos of Tina's Magpie wolf next to the Magpie fox!
