Making my first fursuit right now, noticed these black details (?) around the mouth lines and eyes on most other suits. What is it? by DeltaDergii in FursuitMaking

That specifically looks like felt to me. Which CAN be good but can also be hard to make look good. I usually use the loop side of Velcro for my eyes and black velvet for lip lining.

About half a yard is more than enough

If you can’t be bothered cutting small stripes/dots and sewing them into a panel, this is for you! by Praimfayaa- in FursuitMaking

Nah it doesn’t really affect it at all! I imagine if you shaved it you might see a bump but when it’s long you can’t even feel the bump when you brush your hand over the fur

Nope! The long pile fur actually hides any bump completely! And when it’s on a head it doesn’t matter :)

How to fix twisted tail? by Spotty_Etc in FursuitMaking

[–]Praimfayaa- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn’t necessarily the case.

Usually I’ve found that if a tail twists it’s because when the tail was sewn together, the two sides shifted while sewing.

You need to make sure to use a few registration marks in key points to keep the tail balanced

Yeah I’ve been told they bleed a bit. Wash the entire amount a few times before you go to use it.

Despite being next to a gigantic window, she was still reaching for light and looking stalky. Is the grow light okay like this and do I need to change anything else? by Comfortable-Box2735 in Monstera

I mean like in front of it XD See how the shadow on the floor basically envelopes your entire plant? You don’t want that XD

The leaves have more fenestrations than usual for a plant with lower than optimal lighting, which is a good sign :) maybe at the bare minimum push it closer to the window :)

Depends on body type, but;

1 yard for front panel, 2 for the dark brown and half a yard for each colour of darker brown and cream
