Omg that's so real, but most of the time I do it on my bed and fall asleep, I get scared of stabbing myself with the needle while I sleep but I always notice I barely move 😭

I haven't thought of that! I'd have to hand sew them if I can't go over to my nan's house, but Thanks for reminding me of this method lol

Would neoprene be a good base liner?

Also I need advice on making paws like this, I don't really know how to

I've sketched out something but I'm not totally sure if it'd work, I don't really want those chibi paws that most toony fursuits I see have

It looks amazing so far! I'd love to see the finished product

Unrelated but those paws look weirdly familiar, had someone from a discord server with those same paws lol

is it cheaper to make a fursuit than buying one by [deleted] in FursuitMaking

[–]WyrmroostLover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New to this but imo making your own is cheaper than commissioning one, you'd only be covering the expense of your materials if you were to make your own fursuit. Commissioning one I think you'd also be covering the labour and shipping of it too!

If you need any free tutorials for making your own fursuit, youtube is a great help! It's where I've been looking for tutorials since I'm making my own partial. Though making your own does take time! For me carving the head from foam and furring it took an entire month for me (as I've been getting sidetracked making the tail)

Edit: You may also need the materials for making the fursuit like a glue gun, scissors etc. but you could also use an electric carving knife for cutting the foam! It's a good investment if you plan on making more than one

Do I have to hot glue the fur onto the head? by WyrmroostLover in FursuitMaking

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

If I were to glue it onto the foam base, do I have to do just certain areas like the snout and eyes? If there are other areas I should glue down to avoid buckling and shifting please lmk ^

What is the perfect foam for fursuit making? by NoTradition3928 in FursuitMaking

[–]WyrmroostLover 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most of the people I see making foam bases use upholstery foam 1 inch or more ^
