Premade Deer Partial
This is my most recent—and best-made—suit to date! It’s about 95% fully sewn and took me well over 100 hours to complete. I managed to finish it in just two weeks—I’m not sure how, but I did!It was inspired by Fantastic Mr. Fox. If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it—it’s a wonderful movie with a cast of quirky anthro characters. I learned so much while making this suit, and I’m excited to carry that progress into future projects!
Premade Deer Partial
This is the second fursuit made me, I started this project at the end of June and completed it by late July. I just wanted to make something natural while doing commissions, I loved making the horns and I see a lot of improvement already! I'm very happy with their outcome.
Premade Pink Tiger
This was my first ever fully finished suit. It was entirely hand-sewn and is about 98% fully stitched. I started this project on April 2nd and completed it in mid-May. I’m incredibly proud of it. The idea came to me while watching Steven Universe—I saw pink lion and wanted to make a pink tiger using materials I had on hand and finally start my journey as s suit maker!
This suit took many hours and late nights to complete, but it was well worth the effort. I’m proud to call it the very first suit made under The Owl’s Paw.

About the Maker
Hi! I’m Olverryn or Vee—and I’m the person behind The Owl’s Paw. I’m 19 years old, and this year I’m finally starting the journey toward my dream of being a full-time fursuit maker. After a lot of planning and practice, I finished my first full professional suit earlier this year, and launching The Owl’s Paw is a huge step for me.
and I've been interested in suit-making ever since then. I've always loved making things, and I've done a little bit of everything—from digital art to sculpting to writing, etc. I graduated high school about a year ago, and up until recently, I was working at a fast food restaurant. But I've decided to leave that behind and focus on something that actually uses my skills and makes me happy.
My fursona and alias is Olverryn (or V), and they also serve as the mascot for my business. I’ve always been drawn to fantasy—I love games like Skyrim and anything with a magical, mythical vibe, which heavily influences my work. I’m also passionate about film and music, and I draw inspiration from a wide variety of media. I just like makin stuff :b
As my business grows, I hope to add more and connect with more people. But for now, that’s a little about me—thanks so much for being here!
Welcome to my process and price guide. Thank you for taking the time to explore this section of my page! As a solo maker, I handle every step of the process myself, aiming to create high-quality, professionally crafted suits.
