Argos' ID photo
Originally uploaded by Altivo
And here's why the early deadline for the head construction. MFF has fursuit badges. These are like the photo IDs often worn by hospital or computer room workers and other fields with a need for security. You provide a fursuit photo, they make the badge up for you, and the price of the badge goes to the con charity of the year. Tomorrow is the deadline for submitting that photo, so this morning I had Gary snap about 30 shots of Argos. I picked this one because it looks like my driver's license always does. Since my birthday is in the winter, the photo always shows me with a heavy coat draped over my shoulders, standing in an overheated state office, after having waited in line way too long. Even sweet-tempered Argos is looking a bit surly, I think. ;p

Nice! I'd love to meet him in person some day. ^.^

Might be possible. I know you can't ever come to MFF, but I'm on the point of giving up on MFF because it's just too big. Furry Connection North maybe? (Michigan in April.)

Suit looks great, and that does look like a driver's license photo:)

*grin* Yeah, it does. By the time he got to that one, I was starting to feel like I do after waiting in line and all that nonsense.

Nicely done... can't wait to see photos of you and others on the web after the con! Wish I could be there... taking my ailing mom to Hawaii to visit my sister for the holidays - might be her last chance to visit there.

We'll miss you. I imagine there will be photos, there always seem to be. ;p

Thanks. More to do, but it's going the right way I think.

He would be nice to meet. He looks a little scruffy and fatherly in a way. His eyes remind me of my grandfather.

Grandfatherly is probably a good description of the character. He'll be at MFF, of course.

He looks like he needs moist, cool licks from another certain, big, white, arctic woof ... (hint)

Heh. Argos has needed a lot of reassurance for years and mostly hasn't received it. His unrequited (or so it seems) love for Fennec Redtail has kept him bottled up inside himself and devoted only to his art. I think he'd have fun with you, but perhaps not in the way you'd first expect. ;D
