A tough question

#1

Post by Pulse/Striptease »

Ok. So. I have a tough thing to ask. I have a new fursona, Treble, and I want to bring him to life, possible before Halloween. Now comes the hard part. I need to find someone who can do a decent head base for me. It doesn't have to have ears, a jawset, eyes, or even a nose. I have budgeted R300 out of my birthday money to do this. If there is anyone, or if anyone knows someone, contact me via telegram @Hipstersergal or whatsapp 0717055521 asap

I think your budget & timeframe are both a bit tight. I can however say that Nasheera's foam bases are EXTREMELY comfortable & airy. :) Jake Dane is also top notch at foam carving. Not sure if Niexie (Carousel Studio) does bases, but her fursuits are adorable. Contact any one of them if you want good quality bases.

Thank you for the mention Sudan :-)

I will be assisting Pulse with this one.

Time-frame isnt really a push its more than a month to make a simple head-base. its a walk in the park; really not a push in the slightest way.

The fastest way to make one is probably 3D printing. I know people have done a bunch of tutorials on really cheap fursuit building using 3D printed bases.

Hmmm faster maybe if you already had a model(?), but it would cost about the same in filament/labour in SA.

(Since I have a 3D printed base & all. :) )

3D printing takes forever.
