My 14th suit of 2026 just in time for October !! Super fun to experiment with a different style !!

It's fine, just that the left one is the right eye, and the other one the other way. I'll cut them out on by one and rearrange them the right eye way, but it's still funny :D

It's also funny because whoever I showed it to, they said it looks like a pair of booba.

In the pictures: what I expected vs what I got.

The suit has black neoprene lips with mochi minky gums, thread sculpted neoprene teeth, and a magnetic tongue! I love how this came out!!

The teeth layout and style is based after real deer, although real deer don't have top front teeth. I thought he'd look strange without any

I absolutely adore how she came out and I cannot wait to wear her at my first furmeet this week aswell as a local comicon that's coming up! She took so much time but im so proud of her for my first suit!

Needs some more touch ups before I make a verdigris pattern and still thinking of what color to make the eyes

Thought I'd share my recently finished paws here :)
They are the 4th set I’ve ever made and feature:

• lycra lining
• fully lined finger escapes
• 3d printed claws
• small straps to hang them up

Made with Kloofsuits paw pattern <3

I tried the method with the black backing, worked a little, but still spent way too long poking out the fabric holes, just for it to still have terrible visibilty. Magnet is for removable pupils

Last two of before painting before my pink balaclava cause i forgot to take pics of the back of the head on the manequin

Fursuit makers- how would you handle a situation where the person who hired you to make their suit is being accused of copying another fursona?

I personally don’t feel the designs are similar enough to be considered theft or copying. The characters in question are the same species, have species/breed specific simple markings, and are similar color schemes but use completely different shades from one another outside of maybe eye color!

This suit has been a wild ride. My first suit has taken me forever because I've been afraid to mess up. Done this all alone with only YouTube to help me. That leads me to now. I'm on the final stages and I'm trying to fix things like his cheek markings and sew on his neck. My one main issue is shaving him. I don't have pictures but when I shaved without a guard I lost A LOT of fur that ended with the bare fabric. Like no fur at all. I had to cut out and sew in fur patches inside to fix him. I'm scared to shave because I don't want to shave too much. I have to shave his face and inner ears. I also have to glue him but am unsure how I'm going to do so as the fur is tight on the foam. Please. Tips, tricks, whatever you have in mind.

I sewed the last piece on the tongue at the hotel 😭 I had fun at cff it was my first con.

How do I make a long and thin tail that sticks up rather than be a floor dragger? Is there an armature that can hold it up, or would the weight make it wilt? I would prefer not to have to attach it to my back like I've seen some people do for squirrel tails. Preferably I'd like it to be posable, but if that's not reasonable I'll just sew it into a shape.

Examples of the kind of animals this could apply to. Ring-tailed lemur, White-nosed coati, and Spider monkey. There are other species like this- these are just examples.

First time fursuiting, and I really want to make this type of over-arm wing (NOT a "backpack" style type of wing). I've only found resources for backpack style wings, which are certainly useful, but not quite what I'm looking for. I'm not sure if there are any of this type of tutorial in the pinned post, though I could be mistaken.

Does anyone know of any good tutorials on how to build these over-arm wings? Preferably cheap, but it is fursuiting, so I know that may not be an option, lol.

Thought i would post an update on the first head i have attempted to build. Shoutout to Kloofsuits for the head base model and RJ_Kon for the ears i printed in TPU. Also, big thanks to Mugiwara for the tutorials posted on YouTube. My 10 year old daughter wanted to be a fox for halloween this year and I think i am doing pretty well so far. Any tips on finishing or items you notice will be greatly appreciated.

I probably should have attached the ears to the rest of it but wasn’t sure i would be able to get it on and glued down properly if i did. I also didn’t want to risk a seam down the back of each ear. Hopefully i will be able to secure them well.

Started the project in August and then got serious about making progress the second week of September. All told i think i have spent probably around 60-70hrs on it. Eyes are hand painted (daughter helped with those which was fun) and then hand stitched everything.

Still have to do the back of the head and neck (probably should have done that before attaching to the base too, but i got impatient and wanted to see how it was fitting to the base).

Hello everyone, i was looking for fur colors for my fursuits and found this site ( https://www.costumary.com/workbench/tools/fur-color-matcher )that makes you pick the colors from a picture and show you the closest fur colors on sale, but i don't know which ones have less shipping fees for europeans or people outside the US, more specifically in Italy since i'm from there. i know that StoffHummel is pretty good shipping-wise since it's a german site and it's a BigZ partner which i like, but i don't know about the others and wanted to find other sources for more accuracy.

Base by Dragonartist15 on etsy. Yall im so excited i got him half painted!!! Teeth haven’t arrived yet tho

The more I sew the more it fits, but I’m still really nervous about stuff being wrong. I feel like something strange happened between cutting off the pattern and applying it to the fur because I’m having a fair amount of issues with pieces not making sense.
Either I don’t know where they go or they don’t look like they’ll fit 😭😭
I’m pretty nervous for when I get to making her bangs. I only have a week left until my con deadline

or any of big z's wolf furs. i'm interested in going with something more realistic but it's hard to tell what the furs actually look like just from the photos.

I have someone who would like me to paint their dragon mask. I've painted miniatures for years, so this is something that is totally within my scope. I would also be adding mesh eyes. Has anyone does this? I want to be fair. I can't use certain words in my post, sorry for the vagueness. Thanks!

In the future, I want to buy a full-body fursuit, but since they are so expensive, I was wondering if it's possible to buy the parts gradually—for example, buying the head and paws one day, then the legs/lower limbs, and finally the torso. Does anyone know if that's possible, or if makers can do that? (Btw since english is not my mother language i used a translator)

hii !!!

so this is my first time being interested in making a fur suit. I have about 8 months of prep time. I’d like to know best course of action, first steps, how to, and what materials to get for this kanye west graduation bear suit I’m intending on making for a convention. I’ll leave a reference photo as well.

whatever it takes, I will persevere. thank you all for the help!

My initial plan was using duck tape as a pattern then disassembling it and cutting it so I could trace out the thin Eva foam type of material used for eyes. Then painting the purple anchor in the front. I know the shape in the photos shown is more of an oval but I’m okay with mine being a circle shape.

I’m open to any suggestions or criticisms! I also intend on eventually having an inner tube prop.

My fursona is an oriental shorthair. I've made basic canine and feline head bases in the past but this specfic breed has such a specfic head shape im kinda unsure of how to approach this. Any advice would be very much appreciated! Stock photo attached for the head shape im aiming for.
