...on my costume.
It was nice for a first try and the ears look really awesome.
But I made it too small (worked with a mannequin head that was smaller than mine and forgot to pad it) and the jaw doesn't work right. I got most of the way through the furring and just...decided to quit.
Practice makes perfect, though. Maybe I can salvage the ears and glue them to a headband or something of the sort.
Luckily, I bought from a local fabric store and the faux fur was affordable and great quality (limited color selection, though) so I can easily get more if I want to try again.
helped me out a lot and hopefully her advice will make my next try come out better.
So...I won't be going as a werewolf for halloween. I don't know what I'll go as. Maybe I won't go as anything. Maybe I'll just watch horror movies and stuff my fatass with candy.
Love,
Champ

I wish I can see pics so I can possibly tell ya what went wrong =<
I'll attempt an Ace costume just for shits and giggles and use your furring technique...hopefully it will turn out better and I won't completely fail haha.
That sounds good to me, which is probably what I'll do because of stupid laws in my state that says you can't go trick-or-treating if you're over 14. >_<
growly is still working on my partial suit so I couldn't fursuit for Halloween.
You're not alone! Let's get fat together! c:
I'm looking at starting a new fursuit head, but I can't even locate a mannequin head. Not even a shitty little styrofoam one! Its awful *weep* and ordering one online is more for shipping than it is for the actual head.
I got lucky. My gf went to beauty school and managed to snag a shaven one for me.
