Doesn't look like a Lab instructor to me, more like a Collie instructor
I'll check it out! I hadn't thought of looking at some of the other crafting communities, but they would probably have good tips for different stages of the build!
I was thinking Meso, too, just thought Mezzy is cuter!
I have decent idea in my head of how it all looks, I just don't have the best drawing skills to translate it to paper. The shaping I don't mind modeling in 3d, but before I buy fur to pattern it I plan to try my paw at making a red sheet. You might have convinced me to give that a shot first, though! It would probably help having something to compare against for face shape and expression (thankfully I've only finished the base and about so far!
I've had several over the years, but never got official art or anything either, which makes it a little difficult figuring out patterns and colors ^.^;; but my current fursona is a North American Raccoon. I was going to call him Mezzy for short, but literally last night found there is a streamer Mezzy that is a raccoon... So may be making some alterations... I've been using 'Mesophar' on different characters and accounts since the 2000s, but it's a bit of a mouthful!
I'm partial to the Corsair Scimitar. I've had to clean it a couple times because my cat's fur gets stuck under the scroll wheel and makes the m3 button stick, but otherwise it has the perfect size and weight for me. The 12 side buttons are perfect for MMO play, it's a little heavier (my preference), and lets me use a palm grip comfortably.
Though my eyes are on the Naga wireless v2 Pro for an upgrade, along with a Qi charging mousepad for the ultimate wireless experience!
