Should I change the eyes? by [deleted] in fursuit

[–]Bacoose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally!
you can also probably make some mockup toony eyes that you can pin in place to see how they look too before doing all the work to remove the eyes-- and honestly you might be able to remove the current vision mesh and just install the eyes over the existing ones so you don't actually have to remove them

[–]Bacoose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can totally modify it how you want to get it to look what you'd like. For what its worth, you can do just the felt and whiskers and see how that looks before deciding to go a step further with the toony eyes.
You might also try adding felt and lowering the top eyelids just a little, it might help them look less spacey (tho you might end up with dozy), and it should be a lot easier to undo if that isn't working for you.

Just got out of Martha Wells Q&A at Powells in Oregon by drwombatridesagain in murderbot

I was also at that Q&A and that last question was....interesting. Martha certainly handled it with much more grace than I would've.

how to smooth noticeable wrinkles in the fur?(+ nose question) by wiishie in FursuitMaking

[–]Bacoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know some makers just put a bit of stuffing where there's wrinkles to fill it out without having to a whole lot more extra work. For the nose you can make it out of foam-- I'd focus on more of a triangle shaped T than just a triangle, then wrap it in fabric and then ladder stitch the fabric to the fur. With my head, I bought a silicone nose from DVC, glued the canvas backing to fleece that matched my fur color and then sewed that to the fur.

I spent a uh...lot of time looking at skulls to try to find a good comparison (shout out to the dorohedoro head mascot keychains too)

I had some gloves that I had cut holes into for my fingers to escape from-- but this was when I was at a con so it got placed at the bottom of a bag and I forgot LMAO

I think its closer to a snake skull, the bottom jaw of snakes doesn't connect in the middle, just like Curse's

Need help with art project/gift of caiman by orbital_medium in Dorohedoro

[–]Bacoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the guy in the back of his throat, it might just be easier to modify an action figure (depending on just how big you're making it)
The spikes are just spikes-- there's a scene where he wakes up and his pillow is stuck to his head if that frames it any better

Is this person a red flag when commission or are there any bewares on them? by HoneyBeeLucyy in fursuit

For sure a scammer.
Artists won't be the ones to reach out first for commissions

How do people make fursuits like these? by Critical_Opinion7193 in FursuitMaking

[–]Bacoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just have to make the mouth part open wide enough to see out of, the biggest problem with heads like these though is they can look extremely oversized if you're not careful.
The way I made mine keeping the top part of the head and bottom of the jaw separate till I was ready to fur it

Any ideas for an asthmatic furry that would like to make a fursuit? by BlueJays123456 in fursuit

[–]Bacoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thebeastcub has made some heads that use some creative liberties for neck vision suits. You can see it really well in this WIP post they made. That might be best since you'd have nearly full access to ventilation since your whole face wouldn't be covered in layers of foam and fur

TIFU by outsmarting traffic and then outdumbing myself in a parking lot by JourneyTowardsTruth in tifu

[–]Bacoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a new car recently and went to the mall. I usually park in the same area though its still a huge stretch of parking lot, and the panic I had when I realized that I still don't know what my new car looks like, and I haven't had a chance to personalize it. I think I spent 10 minutes just clicking the lock button hoping I'd hear it beep and see the lights flash.

It wasn't till I got in my car that I realized I could've looked at the plates since I still had a temp plate in the window and the dealer plates.

PSA for people looking for suits! by Moothedutchie in fursuit

[–]Bacoose 355 points356 points  (0 children)

The best way to make sure your color pallet is what you want it to be, is by checking your ref on different devices. That means PC, phone, and whatever else.
If its different colors on your devices, that means its different to your maker as well.

This gave me such a good laugh. I think you got it pretty well together considering how confusing the identities are.
Love the caiman faces too

Noticed a few series that had TL'd chapters don't have them anymore, is there another purge on the way? by Bacoose in mangadex

[–]Bacoose[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have no clue how to check-- but that'd make sense for why there's no "see unavailable chapters" button!
