I first met Lord Darius Foxworth at Ironfest. He was my first photo of a fursuiter back then. He ended up being the last fursuiter standing in the heat. Darius had some kid hassling him as well, part of the magic of fursuiting. I chatted with him and he talked about how he combined steampunk with fursuiting and how he wanted to upgrade to digitigrade foot paws. He currently has riding boots going for a more steampunk over furry look.

Lord Darius went on to say how he had crafted his fursuit by hand except the tail he had that commissioned. Ironfest was the suits debut.
