After comparing the two I have to say I'm a bigger fan of these guyshttp://www.fabricempire.com/ as opposed to Distinctive Fabrics.
I wouldn't see why you would, but if you need to borrow an airbrush (and nobody else over that way has one) let me know and I can try to make a trip over.

I realize you already have it taped, but please heed my advice: this head is already quite big, and when you add fur, it will only make it that much bigger. If you want to avoid looking like a fursuit lollipop, I recommend taking the tape off and shaving the whole thing down at least an inch.
If you look at it, the head's cheeks are resting against your shoulders, and no one's cheeks do that!
Trust me when I say that this is a common mistake, and I am in no way trying to put you down. Fursuit building is all about trial and error, but if I can help someone in the building process, then I sure as heck will try.

Don't tell me that you BUILD the finished product, leaving duct tape INSIDE the things you build? This is probably the worst building technique I've come across so far. You will not get ANY air in that head, and the heat that the duct tape will create will knock you out.
When your body becomes warmer then it normally is, water and sweat comes out through your skin. This can not be avoided when wearing fursuit. It is very important to make sure that moisture can escape, and do what it came out to do - chill you out. If you trap it, the moisture level will keep building up, the heat will become unbearable, and finally you will either faint or rip of the suit in wild panic.
Please don't build the finished head, nor any other body part, with this way of building. Hot glue and foam, yes, that can work, but not this. Don't risk your health like this, seriously.
