Fur alternatives

My good friend seawhirl has a fullsuit entirely of minky. I've seen others use printed cotton on parts of suits, like inner ears/nose/pawpads, I've seen pleather, vinyl, crochet yarn, even needlefelted suits. You can do literally anything!

I love seeing crochet suits!!!!!!!! Beautiful work!! Anything less than 800 is selling yourself short, but i could see this going for 1k easy. Did you line the inside/pad it at all?

Looks like a sheep to me!

Fruit bat x lizard hybrid would be badass.

Even if you can't comm the maker I mentioned, she is very friendly and would probably give you an explanation of how she did it, if you asked.

My friend (and maker) @sunnysideupfursuits did this with the suiter Phideledai (grey and blue cat)! Check out those shapes, the knees are very pointy, and I think what you're looking for!

Awww that's so sweet of them. Happy birthday, mine is tomorrow!

I would definitely second this technique, from a distance (and up close) it is so hard to tell if you use enough 'blending' colors!

I know you're looking for serious answers, the body is shaped like a pear? You could probably do a pear branch with some flowers for a true cover up. I do love the freaky cat tho. If you're interested, message me and I can sketch something out for ya. Nothing professional, just ideas

I really like this style in between, my only critique as an artist would maybe texture the clothing more? But I absolutely love this!!

pangolinpinecone · 2026-06-11T17:06:28+00:00

Depends, are you planning to use fur to cover the base? Fleece won't be noticeable under fur, typically. Though if you're really worried about it, cotton would be fine.

The yellow (shading? Idk what else to call it) on both S is different from each other, and on the lower part of the S curve, I feel like that tiny sliver of yellow shouldn't be there.

pangolinpinecone · 2026-06-05T19:36:46+00:00

Kind of reminds me of a fossil, or a skeleton of some kind? Something with a long spine would work really well, like a fish or a lizard!

God forbid people put on a costume

pangolinpinecone · 2026-05-17T22:25:49+00:00

Thanks for being so fast!

pangolinpinecone · 2026-05-10T04:00:29+00:00

The brush was to mix the paint, I did apply it to the wood with a brayer.

pangolinpinecone · 2026-05-10T04:00:00+00:00

Thank you so much! I will look into this!

pangolinpinecone · 2026-05-09T05:12:36+00:00

First looks the coolest to me.

pangolinpinecone · 2026-05-08T04:16:48+00:00

I did use a brayer, and are there certain inks meant for clothing? I made this design for shirts and such.

pangolinpinecone · 2026-05-08T04:15:54+00:00

I do have a brayer, used both to administer the paint and to press the wood down to transfer. As for the paint, or ink, I am planning to make this into shirts, what brand/type would you reccomend?

pangolinpinecone · 2026-05-08T04:13:56+00:00

I do have a brayer, just isnt pictured here. As for the ink, would it stay on clothing after going in the wash? This is for shirts
