Fursuit Updates 5/26/13

It's been a long time since I posted updates for my fursuit. Woops.
I've been working on it very slowly.

Anyway, some updates for you all. The feet are about 99% done. I'm gonna order some pawpads from DreamVisionCreations once I get some more money. Here are some pics...

I haven't been super great about getting pictures. But here are my fursuit feet during the furring process. The foot is pretty simple. I placed a shoe on top of two layers of foam ad drew out some toes. I cut them out and glued them to the shoes.
Once the toes were all glued on, I taped up the feet from the ankles to the toes. I cut off the gray first, since it was easier than the red.

Once the toes were cut out and sewn, I attached them to the gray part of the foot and slipped them onto the shoe. I did a bit of brushing before I shaved them. The red fur was super super long.

 

I shaved the bottom of the feet and the toes so that the shape stands out a bit more. The ankles were a trapezoid piece, 4 inches tall, 15 wide on the bottom, and then 11 inches wide at the top. It was a tight fit getting the shoe back in, but I got it. XD

The tail is nearly finished. I sewed it up for a furmeet, then found a brilliant idea to keep it firm and not so floppy.

One handpaw is almost finished. The other needs to be pinned before I can sew it. I also need pawpads for the hands. Onceagain, I'm ordering some from DreamVisionCreations.

The head is close to being finished. I need to fix the back of the head and then attach the neck. And then my partial will be finished.
