Wings can be so inconvenient sometimes. My phantom wings feel so uncomfortable when being squished against a backpack or chair. I feel like I’m my classrooms there’s no space to stretch my wings among all the desks and teens. It’s always so cramped with these shifts.

🪶seeing a lot of species transition goals so thought I'd throw mine into the ring ^v^

like most others are saying, permafangs. i need these asap, for all of our euphoria

angel bite piercings for my tomial teeth

makeup, lots of dark eyeliner/shadow, lipstick, maybe some freckles

wing tattoos(as cliché as they are), and at least one centipede

nail strengthening vitamins/supplements(they grow in fast which is great but they're quite delicate) + black nail polish(maybe even those cool talon acrylics)

adding more meats(fish and red mainly, already eat a lot of white) and fruits to my diet, start foraging

rounder glasses/prescription colored contacts(need these anyway), maybe even lasik

fingerless gloves

CAPES!!!

working more on vocals

getting houseplants

Long awaited Hera's mask tutorial (no cat base, low budget)

example of the masks I've made, here:

Author note: I have a 3 year experience, and I got used to making gear like this, so if you are trying masks for the first time, you might find some difficulties.

also, the whole thing Is REALLY "trust the process"... Anyway here we go!

You need: Cardboard, paper(optional), hot glue gun, felt/something to fur it/any material is okay if it works, foam (optional), basic tools like scizzors

1. Cardboard forming

You need a piece of cardboard that's kinda a little bigger shape than your face, and measure where the eyes should be, so you can see well.

you can make the mask symmetrical by bending it in half, but it's optional

the first picture down there shows the back of the mask, don't be scared to pull it in and out, I'd say, you need to form the mask shape with your fingers VERY GOOD.

it really depends on what species you wanna make, I'm making a snow leopard rn!

you can even cut it almost in half, and shape it to your liking

2. Texture

for this part, when you have your BaseOfTheBase ready, you need to make it more 3d, so it doesn't seem flat. small pieces are a key.

u can use various materials to recreate the real look, for example - foam that is easy to work with, and maybe more cardboard pieces layered on eachother. also you can use the pieces to glue the whole thing down together so it's sturdy.

I smooth it out with paper too, so the fleece/felt/fur sticks better to the mask and doesn't leave unnecessary bumps..

you use the bends like that to create a 3d effect, and expand the mask a little.

That's what I came up with! I added alot of paper pieces to smooth it down ^^

3. furring/felting, and the final touches

this part may be kinda tricky, so i reccomend you to watch various of felting tutorials on cat masks, cause this works basically the same!

I didint take any more photos rly, but here's the final product, and only felted one. (the nose is made out of hot glue)

I don't really want to elaborate on how to do the patterns, since you're the one who's customising the mask, but I like to use alcohol-based markers to make them! acrylic paint is also okay ^^

I hope I helped in some way !

If you have any questions, feel free to ask <3

I CANNOT argue with nonhumans like whatever you say gorgeous creature. Can I do a biology depth study on you/make a conspiracy theory commentary video on you/ take unnerving pictures of you sneaking around in the woods/ feed you a peace of cheese/study you under a microscope? Babes I cannot you guys are so cool.

vet school, reproductive physiology class.

new professor specializes in birds.

can't stop saying things like "us birds are superior to mammals", "avians, we're so much smarter", "we [talking about birds] do this because it's practical"

it was so amusing to hear. he kept getting lost on fun facts about birds and was so sweet.

i wonder how many alterhumans are out there and will never find out there's a word for it.

i bet having wings would majorly improve my depression.

[styxthecaracal]

Calling all angelkin, godkin, devinekin, aviankin, dragonkin, and any other flying kin out there: here, have some photos from my "pictures of super cool clouds I took on my flights to the main land" collection. My treat :3

Hope you enjoy <3

Sincerely, your fellow flying creature, Cadence ^w^

Edit: Just took a few more flights (and I'm gonna be taking more over the summer :]) so here, have some (1 for now cuz I'm on mobile, but there'll be more once my computer charges) more!

(flirting) i would let you preen my wings

Fellow feral, may I recommend Idolatre's claw rings from Esty to alleviate your claw dysphoria? A full set of 10 is $275 USD and ships from the northwest of the United States.

I believe they do custom colors, too! They also have other fantasy props but I find myself most drawn to their rings.

therian tips! (food)

so, I CRAVE raw meat a lot even though I can't eat it :( BUT I have compiled a list of foods that beings with human bodies can't eat (or just prefer not to), but that most animals eat that I could translate to human foods :D

worms = gummy worms :3 if you want them to be slimy like real worms, you could put water or a thin layer of oil on them

little insects = raisins or chia seed pudding (thank you to @puddin-dear 😌)

bigger insects = you could prob eat plain chips, I think it would have the same crunch affect. or chippers! (chocolate covered potato chips)

carrion (dead animal flesh) = jerky or bacon!! (ty @silverfoxboy for the bacon one!)

raw meat = meat sticks (I believe you can get them in beef or turkey) or raw pepperoni (you can get it small bags). suggested by @avocados019, salami :3, and commented by @horse-wisteria 😅 prosciutto (which I honestly forgot was a thing 😭) and multiple beings have said salmon and I keep forgetting about salmon 😭

mice = marshmallow mice (credits to @ink-man-sam )

kibble = cereal (I think most of you know that though) or for something softer- gnocchi! (Suggested by @emberslimehunts )

treats = Scooby snacks!

Snacks:

Go-gurt (if you freeze them, they're really good!)

nut bars, such as Nutri grain or Kind (good protein/energy + tasty)

Chex mix

assorted nuts/trail mix

smoothies!

(I have updated this a lot)

Have fun!
