my first fursuit!


my first fursuit!

i know only the tail of this is a softie, but i just have to share this project thats been keeping me from making small cute stuffed toys !

the head is a foam sculpture and the body is a bit of dress making - im completely self taught so it was quite the challenge.

one thing i can take from it is perhaps to use darts more, i make softies by mostly sewing flat shapes together, and darts make lovely organic curves, there are many on this costume head ...

i worked from the clients drawings and ideas and photos of real mice to make this male 'fursona'

click on my blog and use the lables to see more of the WIP

phew !
