HOLY CRAP SHE'S REAL. *flees*
No seriously, this is freakishly lifelike. It looks absolutely stunning, and I assure you, I'd be scared shitless if I came across you/her/it in a dark alleyway.

That is seriously a big pile of awesome.

Personally, I think a combination of both might work out well. Use hair-punching to blend in the "seams", so to speak, between where the wig ends and the latex begins. Give the illusion of an actual hairline.

That's what I was thinking.
I was trying to figure out how to work in the feathers, so I figure there needs to be wig on there too. Can't punch feathers in XD

Could always sewn/weave the feathers into the backing of the actual wig part, itself, since I noticed that the plummage on her seems to be focused more towards the crown of her head than her hairline. That'd be the easiest most secure way, IMO.

*nod nod* It'll all depend on what I can get ahold of. If all else fails, I can just make a wig of hair and later when I have more experience/time/money I can do the wig I really want to do :)

Thanks for your suggestions :)

Not gunna lie, my first thought was, "Dear god, I hope she puts hair on that." xD

That's a great angle for the ears though... It shows all the smaller details where the skin twists and spirals down... <3

Nevah, she will be BALD FOREVERZ

D8

AWESOME! That turned out glorious!

X_x this is absolutely amazing. is that hotter than a fursuit head ya think?

Right now it is cos I have the mouth still intact. When I cut it out and put in the teeth and stuff, it'll feel a little better.
BUT we're also making a cooling unit for her, so I won't die when walking outside :)

Babes, you look great!

Two stinking weeks ago you posted this, and I finally get to see!
I've adored watching the progress and it's all payed off so well! I'm so happy for you!

>:D

It's incredible...is just...

Man I saw this a while back, no idea why I didn't favourite and comment them. Even though I already saw it before still was breathtaking seeing it again. Crazy impressive. I always thought scaly/just skin represented by fur was awkward and was like "man there is probably no way to do a realistic suit/partial that would actually be super nice." Whelp I was proven extremely wrong beyond belief.

Thank you!

Yeah, I'm not big on using fur for something that's supposed to be scaly... But I'm also not big on the mascot or plushy look either. I want to scare children, not befriend them XD

I do other reptilian masks different ways too, like my dragon. :)

I understand, and I think you achieved that well. I prefer more serious looking fursuits, I like realism. If I ever get around to making a partial of my 'sona(I wouldn't like her full suit) she'll be very serious looking. Only time I might go more cartoon looking is my girlfriend and I want to make rat fursuits together. While I want realistic beady eyes she wants more cartoony...So compromising and whatnot.

Actually my first costume I want to make with her help is a faun to wear at cons and ren fairs, my girlfriend is remaking her corgi first but wants to eventually make a dragon with similar legs(doing stilt legs for the faun). I didn't get a chance to look through your gallery completely, but do you have any techniques for non-furry dragon legs?

I have not gotten around to my dragon or chimera legs yet (lack of funding). But the main problem would be material. You can either do spandex or latex/silicone. The problem with the latex and silicone is that they will tear eventually from wear, even though they will look great. Spandex won't look as realistic (tho you can paint it to look so) and it'll last a little longer. As far as building the understructure, there's lots and lots of ways to do that, just look around.

Fauns are fun, I had meant to do one... I actually used the hoof feet of a friend of mine for a costume, they were very nice because of the weight of the hooves (a good thing to remember if you're going to do digigrade without just doing padding).

Yeah I already found a thing for the stilts themselves that I like and I've heard good things from multiple people. That you for your opinion! :3 When we get around to that I'll keep that in mind. We've been brainstorming lots of things but can't decide what we think would be best. haha

I bet you would make a really cute faun costume! Cutesy or creepy, I bet it would be fantastic! *is slightly faun obsessed* I really hope you do eventually, I would like to see it.
