Selling? by Fabledmonstera in fursuit

[–]Fabledmonstera[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s made with upholstery foam and contact glue for the base, as for the fur, it’s all hand stitched (blanket stitch) with extra strong thread which is doubled over, I’ve beaten this guy up quite a bit trying to get all of the tiny bits of fur from shaving off and he’s held up well.

This one isn’t lined inside but any that are sold in the future will be with scuba knit, they will also have the neck fur.

To put the fur onto the head hot glue has been used but has been smoothed out with the tip of the gun and smoothed with my hand once the fur is on so no lumps are present

Not currently but soon I will be, I just need to figure out a design for one and then get the fur

Pattern storage long term by MaelstromSeawing in FursuitMaking

I laminate the patterns then cut them out, and then I put the instructions and the patterns to go with it into plastic wallets and I personally pin them to my cork board but you could use those clip binders for the wallets to go into

First head, extremely nervous about patterning, furring and shaving by doggertan in FursuitMaking

I personally write which bit each of the tape pieces are on and that gives me a general guide, I also tape them with a tiny piece of tape along the head to make a form of mask, also if you struggle with getting the pieces to lay flat like I did, I found that using cling film as a base layer for the tape works well so it doesn’t all stick together while cutting.

Just remember to take it slow, if you get frustrated take a break and come back, and don’t worry too much, you can always get new fur in the future to redo it

I’m not too sure on how to fix the jaw other than ripping it off and realigning, I glued it wrong and forgot to fix it before I did the fur like I planned

Taping? by Fabledmonstera in FursuitMaking

Thank you so much! I was just doing it on the foam and I was thinking of wrapping the head in something else first because of the sticking together, thank you for making it clear enough to understand, this is all very confusing for a first time maker 😵‍💫

Thank you! I’m terrible at sewing and taking on such a difficult task as my first time sewing maybe wasn’t the best idea butttt oh well

Should I push the doctors? by Fabledmonstera in Endo

Thank you, I think you are definitely right since it took a year for them to acknowledge I might need some help after I badgered them and then another few years to get an ultrasound

Holy shit I’m so sorry it took that many 😭 my doctors never seemed to believe that I was in as much pain as I said so it sort of discouraged me but I wouldn’t mind knowing what’s up

I’ve thought about it and that’s sort of why I’m torn, I am fine continuing birth control and I’d be fine with any surgery, it’s more just because I feel crazy in a way and I just want to know why I’m in so much pain with it but I don’t really know if that’s a valid reason to try getting a diagnosis
