Title: My Fursuit Progress
Post by: SapphirePony on 2012 Oct 16, 19:27:21
So yeah, didn't know we, me and my dad, were making a fursuit did ya? Well we are, we have the head finished so far, we messed up on the handpaws so I turned it into a fingerless glove, so yeah here's a little chart  our progress.
Fursuit Progress: 100%!!!!
Head:FINISHED
Bodysuit: FINISHED
Handpaws: FINISHED
Footpaws: FINISHED
Tail: FINISHED

So yeah, we haven't made it very far, but we have an image of the finished head sitting on a fake parrot we have in our house.

Well, this appears to be better made than my robe (the armpits keep ripping open for some reason).
I cannot wait to see the rainbow colored parts!

People somewhat freaked out on a cool pony suit.  X3 But yeah, we have almost all of the materials we need, we just forgot the orange fabric  lol

 ^-^ I just went on facebook to let y'all see the version without all the fur and everythin' (http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/424581_3872517899633_72906358_n.jpg) That's what's inside the fur btw.

... That stuff was cheap for us, and we got it from a fabric/crafting store near our town. Or well.. it was 19.99 a yard  X3

Once we have the whole suit finished, I'll get another picture of me in it, I doubt it'd break the no irl pictures because it doesn't show my skin, eye color, face, or even me just the suit  X3

Add one of those clasps like you get on bicycle helmets!

But.. then people would see it  :c I need to find something to put in the inside, it just obscures my vision when it falls, also did you know, I can only see 10% of what y'all can see when wearing the head?
Title: Re: My Fursuit Progress
Post by: Voidwalker on 2012 Oct 26, 22:04:36
Good point, and the strap would be difficult to disguise (bandanna maybe?) If you can fit your hand inside while it is on a screw tightened head-brace like some
cycling helmets have could work (just don't over-tighten it, they are very similar to a medieval torture device).

I'll probably just put some foam or something up at the top again, also we are going to do little extras tomorrow like making the bracelet for her hind paw and making a head band with wolf ears for fun  lol

Ohhhhh  :3, what are you making the bracelet from? Purple-heart wood is interesting to work with.
