hey.

so i am completely new to making of the fursuits.

i am an artist and can sew pretty well.

i need some help on patterns for a
simple outfit. also, some gloves/boots
would be nice too.

that is all the easy part.
(sew, cutting, patterns...lalala)

as for making the mask//head piece
this is where i need the most help.

any good links?
or any good makers?

[btw, my fursona is a maned wolf!]

i'll be starting my fursuit starting september, when i go to uni (liverpool, england), it will also be my first fursuit and thought about buying a custom fursuit but i decided to say naw to that.

ive been looking around and i found some great websites for construction and resources.

(you may be saying why this? but it took me hours to find it. The next website i show advises that you use a cotton bodysuit and this is the only one i could find on the net for both men and women)

I hope that they have the fursuit panels this year as they did last year with Lucky Dog, Tony Ringtail and JD Puppy. Very good information there! I think I attended every single one of them.

First-time fursuiters and fursuiters that will be building or getting their own fursuit for the first time should attend those panels.
