Some updates on the paper koi lanterns that I’ve been designing! I’ve been working with a manufacturer for the past months to find the right paper to make these out of. The existing paper they offered ripped too easily and I didn’t want people to break the koi while assembling it.
I also tried out a plastic material for outdoor water proof use and it’s working well :D you can see it in the first few photos of the translucent koi. I’ve also been designing lotus flowers to go with the koi, I’ll be showing some photos soon :)
I still don’t have a date for the diy kit release, but I’ll keep you posted! For those not familiar these, the koi are made without glue or tape, everything interlocks like a 3D puzzle :)

Hi, everyone! I’m now opening furry commissions! This used to be con-exclusive but I thought what the heck, might as well make them open all the time. Above is an example of my work (fursonas not mine). Don’t hesitate to message me with questions~
