Yes, Umbreon's been done to death and after death and death again. But it seems like the easiest thing that I could allow myself to try and pull together for Halloween!

Anyway- sort of going for a psuedo kigurumi-fursuit kind of thing. I'm still debating if I wanna do fleece or shortpile (I'd like to do shortpile so that the zipper wouldn't be as obvious).

I already have the hat from  haberdasher- so it'd just be doing the body, feet, hands and tail.

I'm thinking on having the tail separate though- I have some cloth belts that are a lot flatter than the typical leather belt.

And the feet would be more or less a sock paw with a foam mat base for a sole. I did an experiment with fleece for a base sock and that works in terms of not feeling the hot glue, and they're very warm!

My goal's to have the feet as petit as possible though- (I'm not too big of a fan of toony clunky feet on skinny people legs). So my next experiment will be seeing how small I can make the feet, with visible toes, without it being restricting to wear, but also comfortable enough to tolerate walking on hard surfaces.

... |D; My work is cut out for me.
