Possible new fursuit in the near future
14 years ago
I have been contemplating these last few months about getting another fursuit made of my fursona Joshua.
As much as I love the current one I already have, I feel that there is already a fursuit out there that looks way too close to the one I have already and everyone always likes to try stand out in a crowd of many other suits. The fact that people were getting me confused with the other suit was motivation for me to try get another suit made. That also said, my artwork and style of how I envision Joshua to look, is also changing. I have some ideas of how I would want my new suit to look (and if I could make my own suit, I really would) but would rather leave it to the professionals out there :P
It's just hard to decide on a fursuit maker out there (and one that will actually be available) but I'm in no real hurry and no doubt it will give me time to work on a new character reference sheet as well as more pictures of Joshua from different angles to give the fursuit builder the best visual references so they can see what I'm looking for :3

FA+

:P
I have only ever heard praise about them. What happened to that?
Do lots of research and maybe consider getting different parts made by different builders :3
I bet you'll figure out a maker you like!
me i desided to become a soilder/merc so i have guns an armour as props
maybe before getting a new suit you should look at useing props an stuff, some thing to help exspand your personality an make you more unique
just some advice ^^
* bear hugs *
I would definitely never change my fursona or fursuit because someone else copied it. That's giving them their wish. Most important thing is what you think of your suit and not others. And everyone knows the real Joshua apart from the fake crappy suit look a like Joshua.
I will always love the original Joshua that you have made ^.^
As for the new designs. I also believe you can take Joshua to a whole new level of cuteness that has never been imagined by us. And if you do not go for a new version, we will never know what you can potentially do for Joshua.
I say go for it, but don't use the reason that there is another suit. Use the reason of knowing you can do something to Joshua that you know he can be improved on because you had created him. I wonder what lays in the future for Joshua
I did the same thing for Razzle. Here is the ref and hope I can get my new suit soon ^.^

Another thing, the loss of peripheral site is annoying. It makes it almost impossible to juggle in it. Essentially you have to juggle in a tight pattern to keep all 3 balls in view. This is compounded in difficulty, due to loss of tactile feel from the paws.
hmm.. I seem to be rambling. Uhm... luck, I'm sure it will be very sexy. Lots of pounce huggles to you. err, drink more ovaltine?
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONEEEEE
I look forward to seeing what tweaks you do.
Hope it wil be awesome^^
I think in your case you should design something new, something radical that stands out. I think you should concentrate on the material in which the suite is made and I mean think outside of the box. your fursonal’s coat colour is I think vastly different from the average red/orange fur you can purchase these days.
From what I have seen in some of your irl pictures you have a decent body so why not show it off a little, don’t choose fur that makes your bicep as thick as your wrist as that is not anatomically correct of your fursona. Anyway hope that helps, just my to Rands or Cents worth. Lol
Good luck

Imitation is the best form of flattery right?
Oh, and if you do get a new fursuit, it aught to be wearing that lycra cyclesuit. Always a hit with the ladies...
