Fursuit Information
So this year I decided to try my hand at fursuit making - In particular the heads & partials, first off I will say it's a fun challenge to make them, and it requires using all my skills to have one whipped up and looking awesome!
​
I've popped a little Q & A below since I keep getting messages about them on my socials, so have a read below, don't hesitate to contact me either, using the buttons below to say hello!
Here we go, all the info I can think of!
Now I get loads of questions and heaps of interest in my work, which is amazing, so I've put down the most common questions and my answers to them below, if you have a question that doesn't fit below just send me a message! :)
​
Do you take commissions?
- At this time I do NOT take any commissions for fursuit parts (heads, paws, tails)
​
Premade ? What on earth is that?
- A premade is a ready to wear, ready to post suit, all Pre made!
​
Character Rights
- Most characters I make a from an adoptable I've purchased online & the design creator can be found on toyhous.e - these characters are also transferred to you, giving you full rights :)
​
This suit doesn't have a ref sheet, or artwork?
- That's right quite a few don't, because I design them when working on the base, with no planning.
Just full creative freedom at 3am - I randomly get idea's when taping / marking the pattern and just let it happen!
​
What materials are used?
- Alot of hot glue, foam, 3D printed base, faux fur and minky :)
- Lining fabric is swimwear material - a very nice smooth & cool fabric!
​
What size do they fit?
- All my heads are 3D printed and have elastic on the back, they fit a standard head of 24-25" the elastic can stretch quite a bit too!
​
Can I trade for a suit or parts?
- Sorry no trades, I don't have a personal suit (at the moment) and am not looking or artwork ect.
​
Can I tag you in a video wearing the suit I brought from you?
- ABSOLUTELY!
​​
Why are fursuits expensive?​
For starters a fursuit is a LUXURY item not a MUST HAVE item.
-Work involved. Fursuits take weeks to complete, from making the patterns, cutting the fur, shaving, sewing, hand sewing areas all the way to brushing and taking final photo's it's certainly not an easy task to complete and requires a lot of skills to make just one :)
​
-Bases - I personally use 3D printed bases that I print on my FDM printer (bambu lab p1s) they are most certainly not cheap to buy, neither is the filament, nozzles and general upkeep- also keep in mind they run for the average 12+ hours to print one base, so they do take a while to print- also the print files cost money to purchase (most printed bases start at $100 due those reasons above)
​
- Faux fur. It's not a cheap item, I buy from Big Z & Mofu Mofu - both suppliers of High Quality fur this fur does cost a lot, and the shipping is insane, therefor these material costs must be fully covered in the pricing.
​
I see a suit you just posted and really really want it, can you hold it?
- No holds, sorry it's first in gets it, I need to make money to live, get more materials, buy medication and most importantly buy more decorations for my 3 snakes :)
