Title: Wolf Quad Head
Post by: Namivyn on April 19, 2011, 02:02:42 AM

Hey, hey :)

I'm a new fursuit-maker, and sadly, I haven't "started" on the works, but I'm sketching out things first for a blueprint. To get on topic, I'd like to ask how the quad-suit makers do the head when it comes to the wolf costume version. I got a helmet that I don't use anymore and I seen stick foam on the front edges of the helmet(forehead,muzzle,eyes more likely on bike helmet). Well, to makes things shorter, what's the best placement? I'm Miss Shorty, just in case it affects it. One more thing, when it comes down to foam, I saw a walkthrough with a quad wolf head with foam covering the main part, and an unattached part is a curved base for the muzzle, I'll be seeing through the mouth, a wolf ate me!) Should I just carve the foam where everything is attached and it looks like a full-on wolf head or try adding multiple foam areas?

Thanks!

Pardon, I'll link a few examples:

all i know is most of your vision comes from the mouth or neck *if you can figure out how to do that*

Thanks, I'll check out those places in a bit. I'll probably be using the mouth unless I fail at doing one right, then the neck I will go for  XD
