Title: Calun - Spectacled Flying Fox suit is done :D
Post by: Nori on May 25, 2017, 02:38:30 AM
Figured I'd share these here, but at long last, Calun's suit is done!!!
It was such an experience, and I learned a heck of a lot more about dying, shaping and using plastic than I thought I would!!
The wings are supported by a 4 ft delrin rod (he has a 12 ft wingspan!) And his thumb and pointer finger are still somewhat usable, with velcro holding together a slit in the wrist so he can hopefully get his hand out if he needs to. Padding on the chest, shoulders and legs, tail is sewn in.
I did follow-me eyes for the first time, and I know more of what I need to work on regarding those too! He had 3 different length tongues he can swap out, held down with velcro. Fleece claws on the wings, fingers and feets, faux leather for the 'pawpads' and brown fleece for the fingers/hand.
Any critique is appreciated!!!
The crouched images' shadowed wing shows the gradient on the wings the best, still need to fiddle with settings on my camera :P

It is I. :O I can't wait to have head options, too. The suit is so fun and I love it so much.

Oh wow, really nicely made, Nori! ^^
I like the gradient of the wings, and do I also indeed see bubble-stuff in the wings? So many details ^-^

Thank you Ventus!! And yup, color-remover-painted to make the bubbles a bit transparent to the fabric <3

Thank you guys so much!! I was worried the cheapo fur (the tan that's around the eyes and ears) wouldn't look good, but I think it's the best color out of the rest of the fur <3

That's really cool! Must have been a lot of work, and it looks great.
