I am CLOSED for new orders
I hope to reopen in the summer of 2011 It all depends on how long it takes for me to complete the orders I already have. Emails asking for a quote or costume will be ignored.
Why the Name Beastcub?
It has to do with a story I created.
I began a novel in the 7th grade called Beast Sagas about another world similar to earth except the dominant species was not man but creatures called Beasts.
In my book one of my favorite characters is an orphan who never gave her name so the clan called her Beastcub and the name stayed with her throughout the rest of her life.
And so when it came time to chose a screen name for myself Beastcub was the first thing that came to mind.
So that is why I am the Beastcub
(by the way just because people mess it up, I am a girl not a guy)
What is Furry Fandom?
I am not a furry, I have been building costumes since 9 years old and only learned of Furries when I was 20 years old. Furry fandom interests me because of the costumes and my line of work does mean I associate with Furries as well as other subcultres, but I am a costume enthusiast above all else.
Still Furries do make up the majority of my customers and it is thanks to them that my dream of living off my work has come true. So here is some Information on the Furry Fandom.
Furry Fandom is a group of science fiction fantasy fans who focus on Animals.
Anthropomorphic animals have been a part of human culture for a long time, the Egyptian gods, the Hindu goddess Ganesha, and the Japanese stories of shape shifting Kitsunes are a few examples of an interest in humanized animals existing before furry fandom had begun.
The fandom has a wide range of members including artists, writers, costume makers, costume performers and simple fans of work containing anthros.
The furry fandom has kind of gotten some negative attention, but from personal experience I have found the reputation undeserving and that most furries are into the fandom as a hobby in the same way one would be interested in Star Trek or anime.
Above is a news report about furries.
