Wip now:



Revamp is going well. Gotta add the plastic and line the eyes but I like these much better than the old ones! Lol they’re a bit buggy rn but I just worked on her today. Let me know if you have any comments or anything!

Sorry for the huge images! This revamp in total has cost $7.92 and has been worth every penny- the plastic will be provided by the container my cheese danishes came in. Just gotta eat those and use the packaging

Okay, so I'm kinda playing with the idea of whether I could make my OC, Jax, into a fursuit. Here's the problem: he only has 3 paws.

His missing back right paw has always been a big part of his back story, but I can't seem to think of a way to apply it to a fursuit. As he is usually a feral character, he usually keeps his leg off the ground completely, but realistically with an anthro design, he would probably walk on the little "nub" of what's left of his paw.

I was at first thinking there might be a way with digitigrade legs to give an illusion that he's only got one footpaw, or at least one normal paw and one partial paw. Any ideas? Or should I just give up on him as a fursuit? Again, I'm not too attached to him as a fursuit, just playing with the idea.

Here's his ref (kinda outdated but still):

I'M NOT A FURRY BUT I JUST WANTED TO SAY:

Your community is super creative and all your fursuits are frickin adorable.
All the haters out there don't have a damn clue what they're talking about
This community is so chill and friendly holy heck

Might just be a “me” problem, but I am unable to open this unless I text it to someone using WhatsApp?? Very strange, haha.

Thanks everyone- also ^ I’d suggest either another character or

Since the leg is low enough, maybe like.. make just the leg and no prominent foot for that side? Just an idea if that makes sense!

Thanks for the help! Yes I think I'll either do that or just give him a paw that's obviously scarred (using fleece or something) as I'm realizing anything else might scare children ;-;


Okay, assuming I do actually make him into a suit, I need some help finding furs. His breed is a Mudi dog, kind of like a Belgian Shepherd, and they seem to have pretty curly fur:



I'm looking for curly furs like this Mongolian alpaca faux fur: http://www.fabricempire.com/alpaca-faux ... abric.aspx Although tell me if you think it's a bad idea (or have another idea for the curly look) as I don't want his fur to look matted or anything, just curly. I'm looking for three colors; silver (basically like a white that's tinted grey, but not fully grey just a littler darker than white?), grey (darker than the silver, but still kind of light??) and charcoal or light black (light black? uhh I mean like dark dark grey, but not so dark it's black?)

I can only seem to find black curly fur when I really want a very dark grey. And I can't seem to find a "silver" that's really like a darker white? Here's the ref again for color reference (with the silver or darker white on his belly, the grey on his eye and behind his tail, and as you can see, he's not supposed to be "black" but rather dark dark dark grey):




If I can't find the specific colors I guess I'll just make do with what I have but I thought I'd check here first.
