ya'll

guess who's going to their first furry convention

i decided to make a catfish therian flag 'cause i couldn't find one online

feel free to use it :3

symbolism below cut:

because catfishes are a very diverse species, (there are over 5000 different types!) i used various shades of blue, green and brown to represent the different waters that they live in, along with some other things found in their habitats, like plants and rocks! the shades of brown could also represent a catfish's skin or scales.

i learnt about estuarine catfish today and i felt inspired ya'll should look them up - they're very silly lil' guys :}

i made a therian necklace :D

i've never done anything like this before, so i'm pretty happy with how it turned out

process below cut:

The first thing I did was trace a circle on some cardboard. I then cut out that circle and coloured it black with a marker, then I drew the therian symbol on top with a white gel marker. Once that was dry, I painted over top of it on both sides with modge podge (a sealant/glue). I used several coats of modge podge on it in order to give it durability. Then, using a safety pin, I poked a tiny hole at the top of the charm. I used wire to make a support for the charm: I made a support in the back by criss-crossing it over the charm many times, then bending it over the edges slightly in the front. To finish it off, I twisted the wires together at the top to form a loop. I had to use pliers for that. I hope this helps :D
