Fursuit Thread V2 OPEN (New Poll)

[ClumsyClover]

Finally got around to listing this gal. I had made her for Halloween this year. Wore her once on Halloween and then packed her away till I could list her for sale.

I'm planning on making a cosplay fursuit soon! I'm finishing up the leg stilts for my Hero's Spirit (Twilight Princess) quadsuit and refurbishing his headbase, making it more accurate to a real wolf's head shape, because I made it WAY too wide, and made his eyes way too big. I painted his eye, and sculpted his eyelids. I still have to fix his jaw, it's so crooked and weird looking.

So, the other cosplay I want to make is Gregory from Gregory Horror Show. I want to do a semi-realistic fursuit, since replicating the style of the anime would be really hard. I'm probably gonna make him look more like how he does in the manga, but with a more realistic head shape. I was thinking Neko Zombie would be cool to make, but the only problem is his mouth, since it's stitched shut, it'd probably be hard to put ventilation in the head.

I honestly have so many cosplay fursuit ideas, mostly Digimon and Pokemon, since there are a lot of characters that stand on two legs. I'd love to make an accurate lugia or ho-oh, by having the neck in a resting position, similar to how cranes and herons rest their necks, and having the vision be through the neck.

didn't even know this thread existed! ive been a furry for... years. since i was under 8, thats all i know! i got my first fursuit head (without permission from my family, DONT do that please!) when i was about 9 and im finally of age to get my own for real since i dont have anymore growing to do! woo!!
my old suit is a dutch angel dragon named Dust, she is HUGE and when i went to my first furry con in 2021 i kept hitting people with the massive ears on accident!
now im getting a suit from the maker Koshka Fursuits which i ADORE. they make such lovely suits and are more affordable than most
im getting one of Starburst, which will cost 1695$ in USD because his design is pretty complex! well, im hoping i get one. i sent in a quote for a commission slot so im praying for the best! i plan to go to MFM this year so im trying to be prepared earlier rather than later because i was not prepared at all last year! better safe than sorry^^
im just SUPER hyped for just the chance to get a suit by my favorite maker, i adore their work so so much

Over the summer I got a job to save up some money and this guy popped up on twitter. They were originally just selling the bodysuit but I wanted all of him,,, he was so cute!! And the deadline for ANE was closing in and I wanted a suit to go to this convention, sometimes it's easier just to pretend not to be yourself. So now I have a little bat!! He doesn't fit me very well, and his making is not perfect, but he gained me some new friends and a good time over the weekend, so I'm not really going to complain too much!! Not to mention he's still absolutely adorable, but now he certainly needs a good wash... buy a balaclava and a fan before going to conventions!! And make sure to have a lot of water. You'll need it. And maybe a friend? That'll probably help the most (I didn't and it was a struggle).
Can't wait to post some more here!!

Lil' bit of an art dump because it's been a while since I last posted but here's what I've been up to!


This premade fella is sadly the first of my creations to disappear into the void, it arrived safely but I have no contact with the person that bought it so I doubt I'll see it again, there's no obligation to post photos of course it's just something I'll have to get used to but it's still very bittersweet, I get quite attached to what I make :')


Fursuit head bag!! Probably the most intricate thing I've made to date, it's made from vinyl and lined with quilted batting to keep the head nice and safe while travelling, I also have an alternate strap that attaches to my suitcase so I don't have to carry it
There's a lot I want to improve on but I'm absolutely going to take commissions of these in future when I have a bit more experience!!


Anddd I just finished up this premade pup a few days ago! Obsessed with these furs I'm such a sucker for bright designs gahhh

Also completely unrelated, not to make a long post longer but I'll be attending Confuzzled in May as my first furcon so if anyone has any con survival tips they'd be greatly appreciated! I haven't even been in a hotel for over a decade so anything helps honestly lmao

@Anover - Those fursuits are stunning! I love how you do eyes, 2d ones add a lot of character imo and they draw my attention immediately. You definitely seem to have found a style that works for you and I love it, I can instantly tell those suits were made by the same maker when looking at them. I can’t wait to see what you make next ^^

As for con tips, expect to be overwhelmed and not quite sure what to do your first couple of cons. There is no set way to enjoy a con and sometimes it takes a bit to know what you want to get out of one. Personally I like going to panels and the dealers den the most, but I know others who go purely to party and/or just hang out. Most cons have a panel along the lines of ‘your first furry convention’ and that can be a good way to learn more about your specific con and meet other new comers. I usually go over the panel schedule ahead of time and try to block out what times I want to eat/see dealers/etc. between panels I want to go to, I also note if a panel is a must-see or a maybe. That helps me just kind of control the chaos of ‘what do I do’ and let’s me plan meals. If you want to buy stuff in dealers den, the sooner the better! Stuff can sell out fairly fast at cons, I’d get in Friday or early Saturday at the latest if there’s something you have your eye on. Sunday some dealers aren’t there and some stuff is sold out, but there also might be sales going on. Other than that, pretty much just stay hydrated, eat enough food, shower, and have fun.

I'd consider getting these! I'd love one of my thylacine once her suit is done and my eohippus suit! I'm terrified of damaging them. The X eyes is just too perfect.

I work Monday through Friday for 8 hours- I'm a lazy kitty =w=
Does anyone know a fursuiter I can commission from who offers a price range from 800 to 2,000? Regarding a partial. As well as creators who make fullsuits regarding Pokemon. Price range 800 to 5k.

I want a kemono-inspired suit of my fursona, Catatonia.





And a fullbody suit of my pokesona, Aromachu / Fae-Doll.



I'd like for it to look similar to this fursuit:


I'm so new to commissions in general and the only fursuiter I know of is Don'tHugCacti- which their fursuits are hella expensive and the style isn't ideal. Love their suits though.
I'd make my own but I am too anxious to.
EDIT: Also for reference, I am 4'9. I am not a minor though.

Hun I'd avoid Don'tHugCacti as there's a lot going around about them right now that I don't believe is appropriate for this site to speak of. Yes their suits are beautiful but there's other makers. I'm personally using AnileuWorks

[Fishkin]

I second the person above me, don't use donthugcacti, some good alternatives are: thepheonixnest, neffertity, stagsbane, blacksticky, spiltgrapesoda and so many more. Twitter is a good place to find makers!!
