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):

Image


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.

I don’t know how good or bad using curly fur would be- I’d imagine you’d have to brush it out quite frequently.
But these were two curly furs that might suit you?

Hello all!

I'm Blu and I'd like to make my debut on this thread.
I'm a newbie fursuit maker, and I'm currently working on my second suit, a premade partial dog.

Here's a picture from Anthro New England of my suit (I'm on the right):
Image

And here's the second suit picture!
Image

I was able to do the LED work for the premade today, now I just need to install them into the ears. The power supply will be a 5V USB battery pack, the wearer will just simply unplug the USB cord to turn off the rainbow LEDs.

Over the summer I'd like to make my first bodysuit, a remake of my first suit!

@Disreputable
That revamp looks amazing!

Both the suit you finished and the suit you're working on look great! Keep up the good work!

Finally got some pics of Faucet (the grey deer in the pics) this time while out with our local group of furries. Only two of us had suits this time around but we're going to start bringing them out more often. The little kids absolutly loved it!

I really do need to redo his eyes though, they've already gotten scratched and I never actually sealed them because I forgot at the time I was rushing through it (they are meant to be purfectly circular though, that's not a mistake)

Finally got around to finishing off the premade partial I was making and took some proper pictures! This is only my second attempt at suit making so there's still areas I can improve on but I'm real pleased with the result, it almost seems a shame to sell him aha
If there's any chance people might be interested in buying feel free to contact me offsite for more information!!

I've included a velcro removable tongue, pickable nose and poseable ears this time! Plus it was all carved out of a solid foam block so the inside has been completely hollowed out making room for extra breathing space, glasses or even a fan!
The back of the head is just elastic straps so it fits most sizes and vision and ventilation are fairly average although it tends to be better without the tongue
The only real issues are cosmetic based such as the nose having an odd fold and the headbase being slightly asymmetrical around the bottom jaw

Super cute!! Her paws kinda remind me of candy corn :0

Her name already sounds super cute, what kind of names are you hoping for now?
