Looking into purchasing a fursuit; Any suggestions?
7 years ago
I'm looking into buying a fursuit (at least a head, paws, footpaws, and two or three tail, though I would like to to get a full suit, with up to all nine of my tails, if I can) and would love to hear any advice, tips, and recommendations for fursuit creators that you may have. : 3
I expect to spend between $500 and $1,500 (may go higher depending on several factors).
If anyone has glowing recommendations for, or informed warnings against, a fursuit creator they've commissioned, or is a fursuit creator themselves, I would love to hear your thoughts on the subject.
Also, any fursuiters who might have tips for what to ask for, and what to ask to be left out, when ordering a fursuit, your thoughts would be very appreciated, too!
Ideally, I would love to find a creator and get work started very soon, and at least the partial portion of the suit finished and shipped out before August so it can be worn at Megaplex 2018.
I've seen and somewhat checked out a few fursuit crafters, but getting feedback from actual commissioners tends to instill more confidence than business web pages. //3
Thank you in advance for lending your thoughts, and here's looking forward to see you through new fursuit eyes. : p

Oh! I noticed you messaged on Telegram; sorry I haven't replied yet twt I read through it and was ready to type up a message but things kept having me go afk before I could finish a reply.
I'll try to message you back on on it in a moment, or after work if the break isn't long enough {//3
But, yes; Ideally I'd get all nine from the same person or team so the colors, length and patterns are guaranteed to match, but it is, in large, a search for someone with some experience in mounting and balancing multiple tails, tentacles, appendages, etc. (I may have to settle for some modifications, but . . . )
If work goes well in the coming months, and if you have the time and availability to, I may be looking for you to do some work on another character, though. : D
I've got some ideas I think you'd be able to do and give a lovely look to. : 3
I know you said you'd be a little busy, so maybe by then you'll be caught up enough to be available
it's fine respond when you have time, no rush here.
the little busy is of my own doing xD
