Thinking of getting a MrFat fursuit
14 years ago
General
if you don't know who mister fat is, uh.
here is a picture i guess.

he is quite dapper but for some reason whenever we take a picture of him he does not look quite as fat as he is.
Anyway, so a Sir Freckles von Fattingston fursuit. I have decided that it is the best thing that I could possibly own ever, and though of course i have no money, that cannot keep me from dreaming, no more can it keep me from wondering, who might you recommend to make such a thing? it must of course appear suitably thick in a stocky sort of way, with a reasonable sort of pudge (anywhere that seem reasonable of course) and a moving jaw because not only does Sir Fatsalot enjoy his sustenance (hurr), but he also finds much pleasure in commandeering conversation and steering it about in enchanting and quite fantastic ways that may or may not bore or irritate the persons with whom he is theoretically engaging in dialogue.
He must of course be equipped with a collar like the one seen above (that is a colonial tie w/wing tip collar) and fancy cuffs complete with links. oh yes and a gentlemanly walking stick of some kind, he is of course not only a gentleman, but partly blind! and for this reason he must wear a monocle over his left eye. and of course being a gentleman he must wear a hat of some kind, but i have not decided which yet. (if you any suggestions there is a box down below where you may feel free to leave them)
it would be a fullsuit i think, perhaps inflatable just to cut down on a shitton of FOAM ARGH to achieve the fat effect, but i'm not completely sold on that. (does anyone know who made
belicbear's suit?)
Mn, anyway, if you know anyone who might be able to capture both the dapperness and obesity of my fine feline, could you perhaps point me to them? like i said, no money now-
but I like to has a plan =D

well I suppose if you count the fattiness, it'd be kinda hard :P
the hardest part of the head would be trimming the fur, after that...- i just do not have the sewing equipment or knowhow to make a suit just yet.
my machines hate me (i am so serious. the newer one likes to use more thread than required and the older one i do not know how to get working yet.) and my hand stitching is not nearly fantastic enough for the sort of shenanigans that a fat cat can expect to get into.
plus i am the most horrible at making patterns, and that's a fact.
and "simple" certainly but have you ever even tried to make a pattern for anything? good lord. there is just something abotu that that i cannot wrap my poor little head around :|
you make a dress using a pattern
you make a bodysuit using a pattern
you make a plush using a pattern
it's the thing that tells you where to sew and cut and crap
Cut some fur into a body shape, twice. Done.
The body in general is easy if you're not doing foam and shit :P
and yeah he's fat so it has to be fatter than me =P
your argument is invalid.
You obviously are just opposed to what others say unless they agree with you judging by what you have replied for both Occoris and my comments.
And a plain black top hat would look dapper :3
I do think you are probably capable of making it yourself if you can get the head down. The helpful thing is to get a pattern roughly the size you need from a store, bigger is better because you can always make it smaller. Make a rough draft in muslin(It's really cheap) then modify till it fits how you want.
To be fair other people capable I can think of would be
Good luck finding a suit maker or making it yourself! It's a hard decision to make. If you have any questions feel free to ask me!
I didn't try extra hard, but I couldn't find a personal website or anything. They might take down prices when not open due to possible increase of prices i the future.
I'm glad I could help.
