FURSUIT HELP! (tips please!)
15 years ago
So today I have been working on designing a TRAYTON Fur/Quad suit.
A few days ago I saw a video of someone moving around in a Quadsuit. I realize it will be hard to wear, but I am extremely intrigued.. and really inspired to make my own fursuit!
(I WOULD buy one, except, they are expensive for a good one, I'm a teenager who can't spend 1k on a fursuit.. and I have my own artistic and engineering eye that I want to stretch)
some design/concept sketches-

torso design-

I allready know how to use the padding to make the legs look digigrade.. and I'm pretty sure I can figure out how to do some other things with the padding.
What I need help/tips on:
What materials should I use for the...
...Padding for muscles..
...Head (eyes, mouth, nose, etc)...
...Foot pads.
And how to make the quadsuit arm supports.
I have a basic idea about how to make the head, and I am sure to research further into the finess of creating a good (but simple, and relatively cheap) fursuit.
Much obliged. Thanks! ~ Kira!

Here are some fursuit makers you could contact to ask for some tips;
