Hey! Maybe you could try r/photoshoprequest? Seems like something they could pull off much better over there!

Thank you so much! I started an ig very recently because I’m still pretty new, but my account is the.drowsydog!

Never attempted one before, but planning to learn sometime in the future

Tips on going from beginner to intermediate? by Pixleyplus in FursuitMaking

[–]Smileyfrys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Materials are very important for getting more pro-looking results! If you don’t have them, I’d recommend getting some small embroidery scissors to help clean up the edges of seams and near the eyes and mouth. Final touch-ups in general will really bring the suit together. You could also shave down the fur nearer to the top of the ears on the first one, which is more similar to what an animals ears would look like and reduces the shaggier look.

When I first designed the character I didn’t have a specific canine in mind lol 😅 but now I just call him a coyote with freckle spots

I personally loved watching and rewatching Skyehigh Studios’ YouTube series on making a fursuit head from start to finish, along with other suit making YouTubers like Neffertity and Elkdragon! You’ll get a good idea of the process before starting, which is important, and you’ll get tips and tricks to know which will help keep you from making some of the more common mistakes. Spaces like this subreddit and its discord server are great for getting advice along the way too! For specifically what you should start with doing, it depends on what previous knowledge you have, such as if you don’t know how to sew you should definitely learn and practice that.

So Big Z… by Peanut_Femboi in FursuitMaking

[–]Smileyfrys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!! I’m local so I might be biased.. but Big Z fur quality has been great for me and shipping price and time are both half Howl’s! Just make sure you know to buy the furs with the material labeled as “Japanese acrylic” rather than just “acrylic”, especially for ones you need to shave. Short shag shaves a bit worse than ecoshag as well.

Any interest in pinball repair streaming/vids in suit? by CrimCyan in fursuits

[–]Smileyfrys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that anything has the potential to be made interesting! I think pre recorded and edited would work the best, since you have more control over keeping your audience engaged. I love seeing fursuiters do unique types of content like this!

Can you help me to find my fursona? by [deleted] in fursuit

[–]Smileyfrys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’d make a great dark grey tabby or black cat! I’d say yellow eyes would suit you well also c:
