White fox fur
i need a yard of MM long white fox fur and i need it like NOW
mendles is in CA and thus could get it to me fastest but they charge $10 more than anyone else.
CR Crafts and Stuffed furs is out of state and in the past it has alaways taken nearly a week (or longer) to get to me
Distictive Fabrics and Plush Furs tends to ship to me faster but do not carry fox fur.
does anyone in or close to CA have a yard they can part for for $26 (or less if you bought it straight from MM) and $8 (or less) shipping?
even half a yard would work...all i have is 1/4 a yard and its just NOT enough |

mesh and foam for fursuit heads.
I was wondering what some good places online were to pick up the materials. The local stores don't have the mesh and the nearest jo-ann fabrics isnt very close. I'm looking for it for cheap although i'm not the one paying for it, so as long as its somewhat cheat its fine.
Any suggestions? |

spider fox wants to be spidery ^,,^
Hey all,
I was wondering if anyone had any ideas how i would incorperate a roll on plastic wrap/cling film into a tail so that the plastic would come out the side of my tail.
I was maybe thinking of sticking a thin wooden rod down the tail from the base to the tip that way. The thing in thinking the most about is how do i do the slit the wrpa goes into? Best to make more of less a cloth bag for it to be held inside the tail?
would really like some help on this ^,,^
Many thanks

Under Armor
I have noticed that a lot of fursuiters wear under armor under their full suits and partials... I was wondering if most people wear black because it is easily accessible in stores and yadda-yadda or would it be more practical to have under armor that is the same color as your characters body (especially for partials). For instance, there is gray and white colored under armor. Any opinions?
Thanks! |

Being in character in Carytown during Halloween.
Would anyone be interested in going down to Carytown (Richmond, VA) with me on a Friday afternoon?
Halloween this year on a Friday. It's mainly to interact with others and hand out candy.
If you're interested, please let me know. I will take you out for dinner afterward. |

A silly bunny tail question.
Greetings everyone.
I recently made a rabbit tail pattern. I have it curving and shaped more like an actually rabbit, not sphere shaped.
I am trying to determine the best length for one that will be in proportion with a person, and not be too long or short.
For those of you who've built rabbits or own a rabbit suit, could someone give an estimate or measure your current tail's length (top to bottom)?
The patterns that I've made are set for 6" (original) and 7" (newer).
Thanks in advance. |

Looking for constructive criticism RE: first canid/fox head. Right, here is my first commission, done at ridiculous prices and featuring craptastic cheap-ass fur (entirely recolored with spray paint and airbrushes, btw). It's my first fox head, so I was looking for some guiding so I can be better next time.
It was meant to have a ttony/anime style to it, as per the customer's request, and was also meant to look decidedly 'cubby'. I neither like nor enjoy making things to do with these subjects, but it was what they wanted so I just gave it my best shot anyway.

The head was done in under 3 hours, the eyes are plastic mesh (they are grey, pupil-less eyes, but they seem to be made purpley by the camera-flash somehow), and the head itself is carved foam on a balaclava base (first ever balaclava base too). Ears are empty Coke bottles that I cut up, the hair-tuft is from a murdered puppet, all kinds of recycling here.
The shirt-part (this being a rather strange three-quarters style of suit) is a basic kinda shirt shape, with a tie-dye effect due to the fact that my airbrushes were being fiddly and that somehow turned it awesome in the customer's eyes.
The paws are all hand-sewn, with Fimo clay claws and fully stuffed pawpads made of polyester faux suede and toy stuffing. They took forever. I love them.
The tail is the most airbrushed part, which took over 3 weeks in entirety. It is about 1 metre long, and weighs 5kg due to all the stuffing.
The feet are the basic foam-over-old-sneakers jobs, with Fimo claws. Interestingly, I found that sewing the tongue to the shoe upper with dental floss greatly helped, since dental floss really won't break.
The clothes were made for it, black polarfleece with orange ribbon details (that my mother helped me with.)
I'm by no means happy with this suit, but the customer seems to like it so there isn't much I can do now. Current Music: "God's Away On Business" by Tom Waits |

I loved this song when I was little, it was something I didn't actually understand till recently when I heard it again. The songs you really enjoyed when you were little have you listened to them recently. Of course this is a cover in a more modern rock tone.
I didn't mention the song title because well I wanna know if you hear it and go I know that song >.> |

Meatloaf Experiment: To Glaze or Not to Glaze? I've been asked to make a meatloaf tomorrow/today using Garam Masala, Sage and Turmeric as some of the herbs/spices in a predominately beef loaf. Now, traditionally, when I made a meatloaf, I usually have a glaze, 1 part ketchup, 1 part honey. Awesome glaze on a typically normal meatloaf. But this meatloaf experiment I;m being ask to do... should it have a glaze? What are you thoughts? I'm drawing a blank and leaning more towards keeping in naked. Ingredients: Oatmeal Beef Salt Pepper Egg Milk Golden Sherry Garam Masala Sage Turmeric (Brown sugar?) Oh yeah, and for the record, I also enjoy the flavors imparted on food by the Malliard Effect [see my last post to understand]. XD Update: August 20, 2008, 20:41 I went ahead and made some of my honey/ketchup glaze, but rather than put it on the meatloaf entirely, it was on the side. I have to say that even thought he flavor was odd, it had a wonderful flavor later. Though it seems that it was more like a candied meatloaf than just a hum-drum version. Though, definitely a nice experiment. Current Mood: curious |

Furbid Email Problems?
I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing problems trying to contact the administration of Furbid?
I had to contact them because a self-admitted 13 year old (Cheree6/Tomboywhee) was bidding on an item, something which is not a good idea for my business from a legal standpoint, and which is in violation of the Terms of Service of Furbid (article 1.)
I filed a report, then attempted to email Furbid via furbid@furbid.ws; the email address listed as admin contact. The email was sent back as undeliverable.
Thanks. |

Looking for photos of my fursuits Hi all! Now, I know I've asked this question just after AC, but I think I had asked much too soon for my own good. Oops! Anyway, I'm hoping to find anyone with any photos of my 2 fursuits and my fiance's fursuit. I had a ton of people taking photos of us, but I can't seem to find any photos on any of the fursuit photo sites. ( Here are the suits I'm looking for... ) Current Mood: hopeful |

Suiting at charities? Hey guys, I have always had this idea that I wanted to go to a hospital during a big charity drive, donate some money and suit for the children in the hospital. My question for you, how should I go about suiting at charity events, contact the event organizers or something else? And what is proper etiquette at said events? |

Concept Artists Needed I'm working on creating a mascot company (more geared to local business and stuff) and will need concept artist to refer customers to. So I'm holding an open audition of sorts. Here's how it works. I'm going to post a sample description of a character, and you draw it whatever way you see it. But note this: Most mascots are large, round, and overly cartoony, so the humanized-anthro look isn't really what I'm looking for. Ironic, huh? :3 Anyway, lemme see what you got! |
