While I was working on updating the ear seams, it was difficult to justify making a new ear style knowing I would just have to go back and rework it all again. I didn't want to make things even more difficult for myself, so I just held off. Now that that's done, I'm free to make more new styles again!
I've been wanting to do another upright style that was smaller than the Drow. I set out with the intention of making an entirely new style. As I worked on them and got the shape just how I liked it, I realized I had basically just made the Fairy ears again.
That's not a bad thing though!

The Fairy ears have always been a favorite of mine, a quirky yet elegant style with flair and distinction. The original Fairy ears were smaller than these, but you can get a similar look as the olden days by sliding the "ear size" slider down to about 0-10. Thanks to their shape, this is also the first style of ears I've made where you can also play with the "ear pointiness" slider. These no longer have to be the diminutive, shy, peeking out of-your-hair tips they once were. They can now be just as dramatic and unmistakably fae as my other styles if you up those sliders.
I was also able to finish the gauged versions just in time for this weekend!
You can find the new Fairy ears for sale at my Fantasy Faire stall on Stoneveil Crossing until May 10th, and after that they will be out for sale at my store on The Twilight.
