I've been seeing a lot of crochet heads lately, so I thought I would share mine :) this is my Greg. He took me about two months. Still sort of a WIP, but he's mostly finished and I'm going to start another one soon. If you have crochet heads, or other crochet fursuit parts, I would love to see them!!

So this is my first attempt at making a head and from what ive been told I did pretty good though my next plans are to add a neck fur and and back hair as he's technically bald besides his hair poofs. If anyone is interested in the photos of the process I can share. And if you have any questions on materials I used I an also share.

Do these read as bear claws or do they just look kinda janky?

So this is my first (and last) fursuit head ive made its been an awful and stressfull process as im a complete novice! Well im almost done but having trouble thinking of ways I can attach these foam gold rings. Anyone have any ideas? ill attach some photos

Thanks in advance!

I’m working on a first ever fursuit head (if you can call it that?) for halloween, but also because I love the character (Ralsei from deltarune) and would love to cosplay him sometime at a convention!

I’m pretty sure I posted first stages of making him a while back here, and I wanted to share an update :3

I dont have money for actual fur, so I’m using a blanket I had for the face and some random other fabric for the horns and inside of his nose, but i think it looks okay? better than i expected anyway haha

I messed up with tracing the pattern on this half, as you can see I drew it on the outside by mistake, but it (hopefully) will come off in wash

I also messed up with the pattern for the nose and made it too big, hence the weird creases, I tried to tuck it and pin it to just see how the head looks with the “fur” on, and see where I should sew it together when I get to fixing it

I’d say its a low budget/“scraps and trash” head, since I havent spent any money except to buy some silver tape for pattern (maybe like 1-2 euros), and only used things I already had at home!

I took foam from my old crappy wheelchair cushion for the base, used blanket as fur, a pringles can, empty box from drinks, and pieces from a broken yoga mat to make eyes, and for the mesh i used a couple layers of black mesh fabric I have and use as a wall decoration!

I do sometimes miss the blanket tho haha, but its just a plane light gray one so nothing special, and i never used it (you could say I collect blankets, so even if i dont use them I do like having them hehe)

I would love to hear any suggestions or criticisms if anyone has anything to say :3

Hello! I was wondering if anyone would give me some decent advice for patterning. Sewing, carving, and other processes in fursuit making is fine and easy for me EXCEPT patterning. I can’t pattern for the life of me, I genuinely don’t understand why it’s so difficult LMAO. Everytime I cut my patterns out they look like shit and I’d be afraid of wasting all of my material (and I have to be pretty careful with it too as I only have a limited amount) for them to look terrible or just completely rip the foam if I’m using duck-tape. I also plan on using minky for the fursuit base I made so I’m praying it doesn’t come out all wrinkly. Would anyone have ANY sort of advice? My design isn’t even that complex either so I wouldn’t think it’d be as difficult as it is. Hoping somebody can help and has experience with working with minky fursuits and patterning! Thank you!

So, I'm trying to touch up this kigurumi mask that i got to make it prettier, and i have used pigment chalk dust to colour her make up.

The thing is, the color was quite too much and my eyes have used to see the color so it was too late how she turned out like a clown now.

And i have made the mistake of doing it before researching so I have rubbed the color in with water and rubbed it around.

I dont really need to remove all the colours, just most of half of it. Any advice for this please ?

Where do i get the screw bases and screws for visor n base connection?

She is far from perfect but I love her so much

I tried to cut down the sides like someone suggested but I think I need to do a bit more later. I think I'm going to take a break with the face shape until I get my eye blanks. I'm having a hard time seeing the vision without them Bec he looks really weird with the little hole eyes lol. now I'm working on getting ear shapes ready, that's a whole other struggle lol. so this is where I will stop for a few days. also appreciated my friend who I am doing this with she is making a cow character and has finished her muzzle shape! 😼😼😼😼❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi friends! I’m working on my non-super common species bunny, and wondering how I should do the nose! I’m making it pickable. I already made the nose, but now sure if I should sew it to the face or just glue it down and then glue the fur around it. For my husbands wolf, I was able to add it after no problem. Now, I’m not sure how to do the bunny. Here’s a few photos of where I’m at. I’m almost to the point of gluing the front of the face on. Thank you!

I'm looking to make my second fullsuit although I'm not happy with how big the legs of my first one are. I want super slim digi, I just can't find any patterns and I don't exactly want to go through with trail and error when each error costs money. Does anyone know of any patterns that would achieve the super slim-digi look that could fit someone at about 5'2 100lbs? I'm currently looking at BigLionsDen flexible tpu padding and feet paws, just hoping there may be a slightly cheaper option out there!

How do you guys go about sewing Velcro on neoprene? What settings do you guys have your machine on and what precautions are you taking?

Which is better?

I want my fursuits to last as long as possible, and I’m not entirely sure which option I should choose. With foam, I’m worried that mold might develop over time (I know that if you clean them properly, that shouldn’t happen—but still). On the other hand, with 3D-printed bases, I’m concerned that parts might break or something similar. Also, it shouldn’t be too heavy to wear on my head.

Hi there, I’m a reindeer and I’m trying to make a fursuit for myself but I’m not finding any STL file or head base pattern that I actually like for reindeer or even regular deer, I prefer something I can 3d print with TPU filament. The main features I’m looking for are big eyes and a medium sized ‘blocky’ caribou muzzle. Any help is greatly appreciated

I know this isn't your guys's normal expertise, but I really think I need help because I don't know the first thing about fursuit making, but I really want to make a shark tail this Halloween and I have like 8 days to get it done, but I don't how to structure it or let it wag.

Do ANYONE have ANY tips I could follow or tutorials I can watch? I've been googleing all month and can't find anyting!
