LizardToes, also known as LT, Caliban Iguana, and formerly LoopSabertooth (born May 11, 1992), is a Canadian furry artist, 3D artist and fursuit maker from Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Fandom involvement[edit]

LizardToes discovered the furry fandom in early 2003 after stumbling upon a photo of a skunk fursuit online. He started building fursuits in 2004 due to being unable to afford one otherwise, continuing to do so to this day. He has frequented a handful of his local furmeets since 2006 and has attended Furnal Equinox since it's inception in 2010.

Characters[edit]

LizardToes has created a plethora of anthro characters over his years in the fandom, some of his most notable characters being the following:

  • Caliban - A stylized salmon eating marine iguana and is one of LT's current main fursonas, created in late 2015.
  • Scoot - A Canadian river otter who rides a scooter. He is LT's other current main fursona. He is also the main protagonist character in "Shoreside", LT's adult webcomic.
  • Makellyn - A large muscular malamute that acted as his main fursona until Caliban was created.
  • Hazard; - An energetic, clumsy dalmatian.
  • Glitterbomb - A black unicorn that originally began as a My Little Pony original character, before being turned into his current anthro design.
  • Beau - A toon-styled skunk loosely based on the Warner Bros. and other 1990s cartoon styles.

Fursuits[edit]

LizardToes has built fursuits since 2004 but hadn't had a chance to show off his work publicly until Furnal Equinox 2010. In 2011 he started his first fursuit commission, a partial for Horlequism.

Over the following years, he would on-and-off make personal suits with a few commissions in between. In 2014 he started a small fursuit business named Frilled Lizard Studios, which he decided to close down in late 2022 due to personal life issues getting in the way. He has since restarted under the name Otter Mayhem (often spelt with a number 0 in lieu of a capital O), though he has opted to label himself as a hobby artist instead of a business.

His most known fursuits are his many versions of his character Makellyn due to him using the said character for building practice. He continues to build fursuits, but currently no longer takes commissions for them, instead focusing time to improve his style and techniques.

3D Work[edit]

During the lockdowns caused by the Covid-19 virus in 2020, LT began delving into 3D modeling. Past beginner experience from Second Life avatar attempts helped him relearn some skills and he began relearning his favorite 3D program, Blender. Thanks to easy access to online tutorials he has successfully created several personal models for VRChat, including releasing a free horse avatar for the platform. He continues to learn and improve his 3D work.
