So today I noticed some submissions from http://www.furaffinity.net/user/fry-fuzzmutt/

Examples:

I personally have not commissioned her or anything, but I have seen others posts about her, so I figured I'd let them know that she seems to be back again, at least on furaffinity.

So I hope this helps anyone who was concerned or who had commissioned her.

Many other people have had this issue but I'm wondering if there's anyone out there that has had RECENT contact with this artist... Has anyone talked to Fry-Fuzzmutt/Kelsey Wilson recently?

Here's the deal. I had reFURbished a rather old Qarrezel head about a year ago and posted it up on FurBuy to help pay for college funds. She came, bid, and requested a payment plan. I accepted then got to looking at her gallery. I noticed she had an awesome feline foam base for sale and offered a partial trade. Half the price for the mask and the other half for a foam base from her. She agreed excitedly and sent the first payment. We conversed a few times and I, being young and inexperienced (aka STUPID) sent the mask on good faith... Bad idea because I never heard from her again... not a word, not a note.. My FA notes remain untouched...

I went back through and found her e-mail in hopes she still uses that particular address...

If anyone has current contact with her, can you please give aid? All I'm asking is either for her to follow through with her deal, pay the second half of what she owes, or send the head back and I will refund her what she sent me...

Hi there everyone!

I really hate to post here, but I feel this needs to be out there. I completely love Fry's work, no way here I am bashing her(or him?) work. She has talent. :)I am still willing to work with Fry, I just need some sort of contact and a completion date, or even refund.

So here is my story I suppose. I saw a few of her postings on fursuitauctions about fursuit foam heads and feet paws commissions. I was instantly interested. So I shot her an e-mail asking about it. http://i51.tinypic.com/64qeci.jpg

I got a quick response http://i54.tinypic.com/qzrwbc.jpg

This got me excited! I can get one of these awesome foam heads! wewt! http://i53.tinypic.com/riz3b5.jpg.

She responded http://i55.tinypic.com/6sgod3.jpg

So I sent the money in! Since she was in Europe I sent it in euros, but she had refunded it because it needed to be pounds. I understood and so I resent it in pounds. It cost more, but I understood its how things just work.

So from then on there wasn't much communication besides me sending off the fur for the feet. I don't like to hassle people I commission so I thought I was being pretty good about not bugging her. I was in no hurry. No completion date was discussed, but by the sounds of it she was going to get started fairly soon, and should be more than a few months.

Eventually I sent a note on LJ because I had seen her on there recently (at that time) http://i55.tinypic.com/11wftyu.jpg This did bring up my hopes. She had worked on it and was too far off. So again I left her some time. Again I am in no hurry, just a tad concerned. This was the last time I had heard from Fry. I had sent more emails and LJ messages. I have been polite in all of them. Stating I am in no hurry. Just an update would be nice.

Am I being too nice and not pushy? I've never had to do this before >.<

So I think that's all the needed info. I have screen caps of payments to prove I did pay.

I hope this helps anyone in my situation or anyone considering commissioning Fry.

I'm do feel bad about posting, but I cannot just sit here any longer.

Thank you .
