This suit was a lot of work but a lot of fun and she came out super cute, I was going for realism crossed with that cute Japanese fursuit style.
The tails are each 80% crushed up packing peanuts so they are actually really not all that heavy and they swish and bounce around really well!
This was semi-artistic liberty in that the customer gave me a basic drawing and a list of what they wanted and I went to town with the design, coming up with certain things like the back marking and exact face patterning on my own.
The body fur is a lucky local find, a short teddy fur rather than a seal fur, great quality, super thick and with a nice broken up spot pattern that did well in not showing seams... the backing is that odd "carpet style" as I call it though and thus it was very hard to sew and exploded fuzz when cut!
Here is a video showing those tails in action http://youtu.be/JEJZFcHNPt0
This suit features silicone paw pads and resin claws from Dream Vision Creations and a teddy bear nose, all other work is 100% hand made by me including the hand painted back-lit LED eyes.

She's adorable, and I think you captured the two styles perfectly! I also really love how you used that spotty print; I don't see many suit makers that can use pre-patterned furs to good effect, but you do it beautifully! Her tails move really great, and the pattern design that you chose is perfect. I hope I get to see her in person someday!
What about the motion of a single tail? And do you use the newer, green packing peanuts? How do they do for re-packing the tail? How far do you crush them up? Sorry to ask so many questions, but I have a first fursuit, and the tail pulls on the back (Was made for someone a bit bigger than me, so the backside sags a bit...plus the tail is almost solid enough to drive a nail in, due to how hard I packed it, lol)

0w0 I've been looking so much for a style like this! I've actually been trying to figure out how to mix realism and kemono style! This is a huge inspiration for drawing! :D Her face is adorable and I hope to see more of this style from you!
(p.s. sorry for comments on slightly old commissions; I accidentally missed it at first)
