Re: My attempt
AAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaand I love it! You've outdone yourself on this one Yote. I really think it looks amazing. Kinda jelly that you managed to make something epic like this just by yourself.
Next time I swing by Jozi I definitely want to play around with that head a bit!

Yeah I was just thinking if someone told me a year ago that I would be responsible for making that I would tell them to shove it XD
You are more than welcome to try it out!

Re: My attempt
that's fekking amazing man!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It really looks incredible, and like Leeward said, the improvement is incredible. You're a good example of the more effort you put into something, the more you learn and the better you get.
Way to go man!

Still can't believe that is my own work.
Even though this one was faster than my first one, I really knew what I did with this one as opposed to the first one where I just messed around. First one took me over a year to finish with my procrastination and unsureness. Vex took me around 3 months.
Also keep your eyes on this thread, going to attempt the bodysuit soon. That is my next step before the rest will be made as that in my opinion is the most challenging.

Re: My attempt
So I officially started work on the body yesterday, been quite tough as I am fighting a virus and I tend to get tired very fast because of it.
I decided to use a premade template Kwik Sew 3713, with a little modification I can make it into a suit.
I am now busy with a dummy suit which I will use the templates of to make the fullsuit. If all goes well I will have the body done by end of February. (Yeah right)
I'll upload pics of everything asap

Thanks for your concern Tocs! I went to see the doc and got a 10 day antibiotic prescription, I have 3 days left now and I'm fit as a fiddle now. ^.^Tocs wrote:Just don't let the fursuit get in the way of your health Yote, take as many breaks as you need
As for an update on my progress, I finished the dummy!!! It feels quite funny lol anyhow I am struggling with the digitigrade legs, I need to fix my padding a bit, looks very blockish.
I am contemplating rather making a plantigrade suit, although I don't like plantigrade.

Re: My attempt
Whoop I got a stroke of genius for the digi legs, but I'll post it here when I have implemented it!
Anyhow I took the head to the braai at Yukons and the most common question I got was cleaning, I am unsure myself about this but what I see that all the fursuiters do is 50/50 mix with rubbing alcohol and water. I am going to try that out as soon as I have my car back to go get the rubbing alcohol.
Getting more and more excited about the fursuit as it was a big hit so far at the braai!
Also as a Edit on the design, I decided to rather go with a dropped crotch instead of it contouring with my actual crotch. Which can prove to get awkward.

Re: My attempt
Necro my own thread?? How dare I XD
Guess yall would want an update, whelp lemme put it like this. This morning I read an advertisement for geekfest and I realised with a shock that it is in a few weeks. I have yet to make my paws and tail and feetpaws for my partial.
This weekend I have a bit of downtime so Imma squeeze some work in on the suit and Tyger will be joining me. Will be trying to make a tutorial video or just a video of it. Will post it on my YouTube page.

Re: My attempt
Geekfest being around the corner I decided I won't go again with an incomplete suit, so this is how far I am with the partial, all that I still need to make is the right hand paw. I decided on skipping on the feet paws for now since I won't have enough time.
I made the tail smaller than usual, I like it for practical reasons, the bigger the tail the more difficult you move around with it.
Hope you all like what I have done, I get quiet because life is killing me at the moment but I need this, really need this.
Anyway please tell me what you guyses and galses thinks mkay ^.^

Re: My attempt
It's been a long time since I updated here. With rAge 2016 coming closer I have finally made progress on my suit. The digitigrade legs have been a huge headache and I went through quite a lot of dummy material and even bent one of my machine needles (Tried something and it didn't work).
I'm almost done making my dummy suit, I literally jumped with joy yesterday when I got that damned leg to look like an animal's leg. I'm working after hours to get my suit done. The second I'm happy with the dummy suit I'll be purchasing the fur for the suit. This is where the fun comes in. I've gotten quite a lot of experience from this. Making a bodysuit no longer seems as tedious to me as it once was.
I will upload some images tonight when I work on it. I'm super happy about this. Such a simple solution to such a tedious task. I'll also explain what I did.

Re: My attempt
Here are a few teasers.
These pics were taken before I made adjustments and new padding.
This is more or less how the suit will look. Obviously with the fur added. I've cut up the dummy suit now for the patterns so I can't take pictures of it anymore XD
I'll add the pictures of the patterns and the furring process as I do it!

That looks utterly magnificent, Yote! "Teaser" is correct - it really makes me look forward to the final product. Please, keep us updated. Are you going for a digitigrade ("dog-heeled") look?

This suit isn't hugely digi but I think it's not too bad for a first attempt at making digi legs.
I'm planning on finishing it in this week and doing a reveal video on my YT channel.
I get excited with every step and I think of the final product constantly. I'm going to rAge with the fullsuit.
I'll keep you all updated as much as I can ^.^
