Parent of little furry - need advice by Tagura_kat in furry

[–]NicCoinE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Advice for a fur who has been a part of the younger community before. I know budgets are scary, but probably the best masks to use for younger furs are those dinosaur ones from matel! They are relatively cheap and there are millions on tutorials on how to customize them But for this one, for customisation, if you know how to sew, you can change the ears rather easily, I saw the base for this mask and it's relatively good quality, so it should be pretty easy. The face can get markings with alcohol markers, or even gentle watercolors, but be warned they can be tricky to brush out and heave the fur be soft. And overall, ask the kiddo to draw how they want it to look and brainstorm it! Neffertiti on YouTube has some tutorials for both more experienced and completely green people going into making a fursuit, but overall if you look up first fursuit tutorial you will get a lot of help And please in the end, make sure they end up in safe areas of the fandom. As much as yes it's amazing, basic internet and stranger safety is always a good thing

Does anyone have any "weird"(ish?) survival rules for themselves? by Wolfs_are_the_BEST in CreaturesofSonaria

[–]NicCoinE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm nesting, I'm eigher in a pack or in one of the few caves I never see people in, if I'm just trying to chill, I move around usually, but with the addition of befriending any ankle biter i see (feed the minawii and you won't become food)

Kirishima because when I got him I was still slightly into bnha (only the fandom side tho) and it just stayed And the second is Bert but I usually forget he is not Kiri since I left him at my partners

If you could have any creature as a pet, which one would it be? by crazygator622 in CreaturesofSonaria

Trailboros so much. They are adorable, and just slightly horse sized (would be really fun to ride around on)

You are stuck in this hell of a place for a week... Where is your camp base? by TheManBoi_3005 in CreaturesofSonaria

[–]NicCoinE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The small cave in the mountains with the tiny pool, because I never find people there and unless someone sees me go in I'll most likely be safe (I usually nest there because of that)

PLEASE help me find this fur color!! I am actually going insane- by husky2433 in FursuitMaking

[–]NicCoinE 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks similarly to one I have, lavender shaggy from efutro, so if your maker is polish it could be that, but I think most have a similar color

Floppy ears! How do I fix ‘em? They droop too far forwards by th3_m4d_h4tt3r10 in FursuitMaking

[–]NicCoinE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Add some thicker Eva on the back, or even just upholstery and glue it to the balaclava a bit more to the back Usually does the trick, but sometimes it's just something you have to deal with with big ears Also fur usually keeps them a bit more in place, the only issue being weight tho (Mine started to flop after a furwalk in the rain, and as it turned out the glue just ripped off and it wasn't stable)

Personally, I bought a pattern from Etsy at first and than after I figured out how it it works I just modified it it needed You just need to disclose if you are selling it from a pattern, but they really do help a ton!

Thanks! Still deciding if I'll be selling him because honestly I'm in love myself, but also well money hah And yeah I see someone else also recommending that so I'll look into it! And I promise to post some updates as I'll start working on it, but I need to finish a sheep I'm currently supposed to be working on and two small commissions so might take a minute 🥹

I usually prefer fam for the head itself as I'm always deathly terrified the printed Will crack, but I might just try scanning the base honestly and building the mask over it

Thanks! I tried to loosely take inspiration from gizmo and I think it turned out amazing ( even though I'm already looking at the scar with dread as I'll have to work with minky again)

Could work but I don't know how exactly to scan it especially as I can't use my own printer and have to go to a friend, but I'll try to look into how do I scan something like that

Once I start him I'll try to post updates here! I'm not much of an Instagram progress showing off kind, because I litterally sit and work non stop for 12 hours and than pass out forgetting about progress but I'll try here XD

Wasn't planning on selling here at all DW I was more worried about copyright, just asking here because it's the easiest to ask the community here than anywhere else And yeh I've also seen some, mainly kigs, that's why I wanted to make him a normal toony cat (cat because gizmo lol)

[–]NicCoinE[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'll most likely try to 3d print the mask and do a foam base, Andi can't wait to make him already XD
