/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Well, I'll bite. This cosplay idea is still something of a fantasy at the moment, but I'm collecting resources so I have some vague idea of how to get it to work whenever I actually get around to it.

Picture related of the guy I'd like to cosplay at some point, http://www.matrices.net/fursuiting.asp is the site I first found that had info (that seemed reliable). The head is the only thing I'd need to make fursuit-y, I think, but since I've never done anything like this before, would this be too difficult for a first project? Am I even looking in the right direction?
