So your next suit is white.
You are a snow leopard.
Bear your soul and take control
If the wolves are howling outside your door
Invite them in and make them beg for more!

Man, can you imagine trying to keep a white suit clean? *Shudders*

A gryphon? Oh! Maybe it's lightweight! An Otter on a diet!

I know, right? I have no idea how other fursuiters keep their white suit parts so white. I'm jealous.

Thanks, Varg. That cracked me up!  :D

Kobuk!  Be a bird, join the avians. Fly the friendly skies and together we shall descend upon the furry mammals and feast upon them all! :D

Sounds delicious!  :D Don't you mean fly the "unfriendly" skies?  Those mammals better beware.
They have the right to live,
...and they have the right to die.
Now make their choice,
...before I fly. ;) 

Hehehe.

Putting some notes together today to put in an email to send to a few fursuit makers to get their opinions. I'm not commissioning now. But I have a few "technical issues" (Particuarly the arms.) regarding the suit design I have and I want to ask a few makers what their thoughts are if it's something they can make or not, and what changes they might suggest.

I'll keep everyone updated. ;)

Well... I will be looking up and behind me more, now that I know what the Avians are truly up to.

I think Kobuk's next suit will be a duck hybrid  :-[

Peeking Duck. Peeking at you from behind the boxes in the corner.
Is that Chuck Testa? Nope, Peeking Duck.

It is already too late fleshy mammal! The avian kind shall rise up in a fabulous display of feathery wrath and usurp you all as the most beloved.
Starter furries will choose ravens instead of wolves and it will be you who shall be the rarity.

Kobuk--is it a hawk of some kind, perhaps a red tail? I only ask due to the mention of red, and the feather looks a bit too stubby to be that of an eagle or other soaring bird :3

You are close. It "might" be a bird. Just not any of the ones already mentioned by people.

The feather pic was just a generic clue to say the new suit will have feathers. Not to say the feathers will look exactly like that.
You are on the right track. It is a predatory bird. Just not any of the ones already mentioned by people..........or are they?  8) Hehehe.


Predatory bird huh?

Hmmm.... I got it! Your bird is going to be the last Dodo bird who has armed himself up for revenge and now hunts the deadliest prey of all. Man.

A green kitsune, from all that Mt Dew of course.

How to create a second fursuit without copying other designs? Hmmm. ?

Most on Furtopia know that I like Mountain Dew soda. My fursona wasn't always a green and white husky when I started on Furtopia back in late 2003. Don't think the green and white husky look came about till late 2005 or early 2006 maybe. And late 2006 was when I got my green and white Mountain Dew colored fursuit from Lacy. I think it was the first and only MD fursuit created back then. But I don't know?

But since that time, there have been a few other MD themed fursuits in the fandom. Some examples are:

Dew Shep. A german sheperd fursuit.
https://db.fursuit.me/?c=viewsuit&id=4635
Dew, the Dutch Angel Dragon.
http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/dewtheangeldragon/
Radion, a MD husky.
https://www.furaffinity.net/user/radion238

Somehow, I need to "get my groove back" so to speak. After all, I am the original "Malamute Dewd". I've always talked, talked, talked about a Kobuk 2.0 MD fursuit in the past, but nothing has ever come of it.
So if I design a new Kobuk 2.0 suit, what would it be like? How do I keep it different from other Dew suits without copying certain design elements?
I'm not keen on mixing other "colors/flavors" on the suit. I've always liked the classic original flavor/colors. The classic dark green, light green, white, and red.

Can confirm. I've known Kobuk here for a few years now. He's a very sweet guy. And I mean that literally, he actually sweats fructose! :D
You know how some animals will turn orange if they eat too much of an orange thing? Well Kobuk really is green! Seriously, out of fursuit his skin has this subtle emerald hue.
