Hello every one. I am Mursa ArtDragon. I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm looking forward to going to the next con, I couldnt make this year cause I am military and had things come up. But I wanted to ask if I could get some tips on making fur suits. Right now Im trying to make my suit with foam and liquid latex (I am a dragon incase you hadnt guessed) But I'm also trying to attend Further Confusion and I know the true costume wont be done for a long while. I was hoping on possibly getting tips for making an actual fur suit dragon to substitute and hopefully be able to finish it in time. I have like 5 months so I should be able to get the paws and tail for sure and I have a good idea how. but I have no idea how to make a head to it. I see so many for suit heads but I cant figure out whats done to make them. Can some one please help me out? P.S. Yes I know my spelling sucks |

thank you rover I'll take a look. I hope to see you there. Oh I was wondering what the T in your name stood for. Right now my fursona name would be Mursa A Dragon . I know its lame ^^; but it stands for my buisness name.

The "T" stands for "The" as in Rover The Mutt. A disappointment huh.
I got the name from friends when they reversed my name. I couldn't just drop the letter. So I came up with this name to keep the first six letters in the reverse order.

I couldn't describe myself well and since I try to avoid pictures, I don't have any on hand to show. However, I tend to be in suit about half the time I'm at FC so here's a pic of a returning character there.

He usually is wondering around taking pictures.

well Im so glad you helped me and talked to me.
Just to give you a hint what to look for. Im making a sort of quicker temporary costume aside from my dragon one that will take like a year. It will be a white fox with black paws. but heres the big thing on how to find me. I will be whereing a white sleevless trench coat with a embroidered name tape saying "mursa" on it. also the torn cloths and chains I like to where.
