Title: Emma Cornell's First Fursuit!
Post by: EmmaCornell on August 13, 2013, 11:36:33 pm
I'm so happy that I've finally gotten the money to begin working on my very own suit for my fursona, Emma! (http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a483/EmmaCornell/EmmaRef_zps4be2fd9e.jpg)
Over the past two months I've been saving up from my summer job to get all the materials I needed. Including:
Head pieces (http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a483/EmmaCornell/1170942_611658202200114_1344896843_n_zpsbe136fb2.jpg) (Eyes, mask, jawset by Dream Vision Creations)
Tons of fur :D (http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a483/EmmaCornell/IMG_1865_zpse97de770.jpg)
And the other miscellaneous items such as foam and paint and such (:
I already have some progress on it, since I was trying to post this yesterday but my internet wanted to be stupid :P

Head's almost finished! If I didn't have work tomorrow I'd work on it some more tonight.

Wish I could post photos for you guys but It's alittle too late for me to be turning on my laptop. ^^; Just a few updates and I'll hopefully get pictures up later :D

Head is furred, just needs to be shaven and have hair attached.

Feet paws foamed and ready to be furred.

Tail is currently being sewn.

Also for money sake I won't be doing a body suit just yet. So she'll just be a half suit for now. (: Won't be much left now till she's done!

I cannot wait, still she is finished! I'm wondering how is she going. The head looks lovely! I love the fur choice, looks so shiny and fluffy :3 . I hope you will finish your fursuit very soon! :D

I know a technique which can help you a little. To avoid seeing seams, you can tuck in fur edges  and glue it so it will be stable and apply to whatever place you need ^_^ useful for fur in ears e.g

I know that trick :) I just hadn't realized the seams unfolded themselves until the glue settled :-[ I'll have to cover it up since I can't lift the fur anymore.

Please excuse the crappy camera quality, abundance of ponies, and my tv.

Really LOVE the choice of colors! Head looks great! I know it's just me but I like the shaggy look of the first head picture. But they all look great.

They approve as well XD

It's even weirder when you know the ear isn't even attached. :-[ I just pinned it on so I would know where to sew it.
