  1. Some big #inflatable dergz for next year’s @motorcityfurrycon.org perhaps? The idea would be to have them flanking main stage for the duration of the con.

  2. #MotorCityFurryCon media ingest complete, photos twiddled a bit and uploaded to #furtrack.

  3. #MotorCityFurryCon Day 3 on #Polaroid, Part I. For the times when one-hour photo just isn’t fast enough.

  4. Lighting in The Ren is not your friend. Make sure your subject isn’t backlit, if they are, force flash and pray.

    If you’re shooting #Polaroid, try setting your exposure one step light, two steps in dark spaces. DO NOT photograph backlit subjects.

  5. My two #MotorCityFurryCon panels are:
    Catz: A Feline Frolic - Friday 19:30-20:30 in Panel 3
    Retro Tech Meetup - Sunday 12:30-14:00 in Panel 2

    The inflatables panel didn't make the cut, unfortunately. Bryce the Manticore will be at the Feline Frolic for hugs and looking regal, though.

  6. CW: Cute inflatable manticore, but also geopolitical moaning

    Bryce the #inflatable #manticore, 4m from grumpy snoot to swishy tail tuft. He's about midway between the Zenith and Protozenith in height, so inconveniently large, but not overwhelmingly so.

    He started as a set of spare parts, specifically an unused design for a modernized Lionel toy, an unfinished Blazehowl, and an incomplete gargoyle.

    The idea was to use him as a sacrificial test design to test manufacturer capabilities but it's hard for me not to get attached to my designs...

    Bryce will be at the "Catz: A Feline Frolic" panel at #MotorCityFurryCon and at the #AnthrOhio inflatables Panel if that's approved...and might pop up in other places too, logistics permitting. So you'll be able to squish that big cat (or try to) in the not too distant future.

    The current US geopolitical idiotism does not bode well for the future of inflatable creatures, though. The utahraptor or komodo dragon/megalania might be the last things to make it across the Pacific, and there's not much hope of publicly running the dinosaur with the upcoming trade mess.

    I'm not sure if the necrotic object is going to chicken out like usual (but the tariffs are still up), or if the Reality Distortion Field is strong enough to result in the US cheerfully marching into a pointless war on its former allies once the winter ice clears. (Or Pacific tensions...)

  7. The Retro Tech Meet at MCFC 2026 has been approved. We don't have a time or location yet, however.

  8. It looks like the inflatables panel for #MotorCityFurryCon 2026 in February didn’t make the cut. The demand for Main Events was too high.

    Retro Tech and Catz are still on, and I’ll find a way to bring *something* for the Macro/Micro peeps and the feline meetup if enough space can be found.

  9. The Galleria at Erieview, shot on defective #Polaroid 600 using a OneStep found in the office supply cabinet. (My 680 is out for repair.)

    There are two cartridges of bad left, I’ll get three fresh packs to shoot at #MotorCityFurryCon in February.

  10. Oh yes so that severe weather yesterday? I was at #MotorCityFurryCon and was among the people huddling in the Main Ballroom, avoiding being underneath the chandeliers.

    Fortunately it was after closing ceremonies and a lot of people had left early to avoid the weather altogether, but everyone was able to fit in and so far as I know came through fine weather-wise.

  11. Home from #MotorCityFurryCon, starting unload. It was okay this year. Schedule was a bit thin and a lot of friends couldn’t make it but at least the inflatables panel turned out okay and I got to do a bit of fursuiting.

  12. Feels like we have a slight drought of smaller panels at #MotorCityFurryCon this year. It doesn’t help that the usual band of regulars couldn’t make it for a dozen different reasons…

  13. The #MotorCityFurryCon #inflatable panel, “Your Plastic Pals” was a success. Share and enjoy! (I’m so relieved right now.)

  14. Good night @motorcityfurrycon.org ! Remember if you were at First Fur Con: COME TO CON HORROR STORIES AT 10:30 AM TOMORROW MORNING! #mcfc #motorcityfurrycon

  15. I’m trying not to panic. This is equal parts joking and stress on my part. Hopefully this weekend will be okay. #furcon #mcfc #motorcityfurrycon

  16. With my experience at #GetOutTheFloat, I have decided to write up a procedures document for #inflatable panels at #furry conventions, and hammered out a draft on the flight between PDX and MSP. It should see its first field tests next month at #FurnalEquinox and #MotorCityFurryCon.
