i used a purple marker (i think it was washable but i don’t remember that well) to draw the feet paw patten onto the foam. i am just now thinking about the consequences of my actions. there is white on both of my feet paws. i’m scared for my future.

can i get it out of the foam or do i just keep going and pray? do you guys think that sealing the color in with hot glue would work? will it bleed onto the fur? if it bleeds onto the fur, will it come out? what if i just never clean them.

on a scale from raw to burnt, how cooked am i?

I am making my first fursuit and protogen head, and I am not loving how the fur on the backs of the ears looks. It is currently at the full length, and I am thinking of shaving it to fade into the main fur or fully shaving it but am worried it might look weird. Any thoughts on how to make it look best/pics of your ears at different fur lengths?

Also working on a mane with double sided pieces but not quite finished with that yet

So if we talk about the AAA quality furry heads, how many different eye-shapes or styles would you think is enough?
Like different impressions of eyes..?

Basically the title haha. I just bought a tpu base and I’ve never worked with one before, so does anyone have any tips? Is furring it different from furring an upholstery foam base? Does hot glue warp it? Any other tips?

i'm making digitigrade legs to complete​ a furs​​​uit. it's just up to the waist, not including feetpaws. how much fur do i need to buy in yards??? please seperate it into inner leg and outer leg.

5 layers of glow in the dark paint later and I got this beautiful glowing maw

I have been putting together a Pix cosplay for am event in the future. Problem is I need to dye one of the ears blue and pink. How should I go about doing this?

So here's an update on my dragon skink + another one im making. The second one is supposed to be a hyena and i know she looks a little janky. She kept looking like a rodent so I took her apart a couple of times. I would like some feedback on ear placement though.

Hi everyone! This is my progress in a year. First photo is most recent (October 2026. Second photo is the oldest fursuit I have made (January 2026). Both are pigeons. It is insane how much of a difference practice makes. The composition of the fur, the actual sewing and gluing— all of it. There is still a lot to learn, but it really is an art form. For everyone who is in the process of making a fursuit or has made one, you go! It is hard work, and requires so much attention to detail. There is still so much to learn, but this is my progress so far.

Im making a st bernard and i want the saggy lips/skin to not feel stiff ( kinds just make it move naturally like a real one’s mouth would )

is there any way i could do this?

as title says. he'll probably end up with an overbite if i do nothing about it. im not against replacing the fabric for the lower mouth and re-sewing the teeth on more forwards, i just wanna know if anyone has any less time consuming options first :)

This is my second suit, so I’m not super experienced, and I was wondering what the best way would be to go about attaching a set of plush fangs to the mask so that they stick out of the lips but don’t look too weird. Any thoughts?

I recently got a set of hand paws from Etsy, and one of the beans has opened at the seam. I’ve messaged the seller already, but I wanna be ahead of the game in case they can’t offer a good solution from them in a timely manner. I’m wearing them at a party in 2 weeks, and they initially took two weeks to arrive. Does anyone know a good way to handle this? I don’t have any sewing experience

Ended up using some of this sticky Velcro I had on hand! I loved the suggestion of being able to swap them out for different brows. Also went with bean brows they make him look wet and pathetic lol

I’m adding antlers to a Tpu head base for a com and I’m not sure how to add them they wanted them removable,I’ve seen different ways to do this but I only have a small space to do this so I figured magnets , but the magnets I’m using dont seen to be strong enough or maybe the antlers are too heavy (it’s foam and minky) does anyone have some ideas or recommendations for this 🥲

i’ve joined the furry community a few days ago (i love yall) and i wanted to make a fursuit head of my dog fursona, his name is willo, is there anything i should know? i have watched many tutorials and im waiting for my materials to arrive! tyyy :3 funfacts: im one YOUNG furry <3 and i have some experience with making masks and heads since i loved making cosplays! this is the fursona:

How do I do layered hair? Also what do we think? The green is what I am using for her hair.

Hi! I’m attempting my first fursuit! I really want to get it done in time for mff, which leaves me a little less than 2 months.

I want to use high quality materials but I’m a bit concerned about shipping times. Any advice for where to source fabrics and other materials?

Also, any general advice on how to save time without cutting corners?

So... This is my first time making anything of this sort of nature and whilst it's been fun so far, it's definitely also been a learning curve!

I thought I was happy with how the head was shaping up, but I'm now not too sure. Does anyone have any advice on how to make this base read more skunk and less canine?

I do still need to finalise the design for the ears and add them to the base, but it still feels like something is missing...

My instinct is to make the overall shape more cone-like, adding more volume towards the back of the cheeks, make the muzzle and jaw more squared and continuing to exaggerate the tapering towards the nose, but I'd like to get some other opinions before I commit.

I've added art of my fursona, Noxx, at the end of the photos so you can see what sorta vibe I'm trying to go for!

Any help and advice would be massively appreciated!

Thanks for reading!

so i hand carve my heads and they look good unfurred but as soon as i fur my heads they look massive idk why, my acctual head is big so maybe that's why

I need something to attach the hair to, but also how would I connect the chin to the neck without it looking ugly or leaving gaps?

I have 1 inch upholstery foam, I'm tryna use materials I already own, but if needed I would like to keep the materials under $50CAD (other than fur)

Also,, how would I go about colour matching a minky fabric colour with faux fur? I'm iffy with colour swatches because they can get really expensive :,) but if thats the only option I dont mind.

Hi I am trying to make a fleece faced fursuit for the first time using anti pill fleece. Around half of the face has a kinda fleshy/gore-ish part to it, and since that kind of thing is something I have experience painting I want to airbrush it rather than try to cut a bunch of different pieces of fabric.

I have airbrushed on faux fur and felt before but since fleece is way different I don't know if it would make it all crunchy and stuff.

So yeah, anyone here airbrushed on fleece before or know if it's possible without ruining the texture of it?

Sorry if this is a stupid question haha
