Help Please
« on: June 24, 2011, 09:11:53 PM »
Hello Guys, I'm working on making my own fursuit and I have a quick question that I have googled and have found just about nothing. I have constructed my fursuits head:


(I removed the little nostril things, btw sorry for crappy webcam pic Dx)

I basically know what I need to do to fur it, I've put the tape on it etc. What I need to know is, when furring it, I have read some people just glue the fur on with no sewing but that it can lead to the fur seperating between the peices and end up showing the foam beneath. (Sorry if that abit confusing) So should I sew and glue it? Or if I just glue it do you have any tips for me? Any help would be appreiciated. By the way, when I get started I'll be sure to post some more pics. OH almost forgot. My head also has a moveable jaw, any tips how I would fur around it, like If a fur over it wouldn't it hold the jaw shut? Anyways, thanks for any help.

I always sew the edges together for pieces, but you can't sew them all the way down the neck or you won't be able to pull the fur over the top when you glue them all down at the end.  for the mouth, you just don't connect top and bottom... add a bit extra so you can put it in the lip a bit.  :)
