hi all, i am reasonable new to this forum
My sister and I are planning to make "twin fursuits" (hopefully by next rAge?...) but we can't decide between 3 ways of making their designs:

A) same species but they look different:

B) they look the same but have inverse colours:

or C) look the same with slight differences:

which type do you like the best (A, B or C)?

Sorry inconvenience of the links!
(note - I do not own any of the images and I'm just using them as examples)

A combination of B and C would be cool in my opinion.

Sadly we will not have the fursuits done this year, yet i will have a halfsuit of my main fursona by rAge, or, if we get in, comic con.

Does anyone know where you can find craft foam for the eyes in Gauteng?
(i used this thread because i felt it was not worth making a new thread - is it?)

Craft foam you can find at any PNA or similar. Not sure that's your best option though. Check out this site for some great tutorials.

I use plastic 5lt ice cream tubs for the inner part of the eye and of I make the follow me eyes I make the ridges from craft foam.

Making the entire eye from craft foam might not work too well since it can be very flimsy

I love matrices's tutorials! thanks for all the advice, I will check at PNA.
Never thought of using the ice-cream tubs... I was going to use plastic but bowls create a rounded affect in the eyes which wouldn't work for the 3D toony eyes, but the ice-cream tubs will work!
