It's ageplay tier and should be discouraged at any chance given. Furfags are a cancer that needs to be cut out.

You clearly know nothing about fursuits, so it's funny that you think you have any authority on this. Fursuits are characterized by being relatively humanoid-shaped costumes that use upholstery foam covered by a FABRIC in order to look like some sort of animal or beast. Whether or not that fabric is fur does not negate the fact that it is a fursuit.

Next time don't come into a cosplay fursuit thread when you clearly have no knowledge on the subject, thanks in advance.

Nayrt but mascot suits and fursuits are usually super similar in construction, difference being that mascot suits are usually a bit more oversized and don't necessarily follow a human shape.

I'm not a furry, but there's a few ways to circumvent heat. One common way is by having open slits where the ears are, which works best in more traditional wolf or canine suits where the ears are situated on top of the head. In these cases, the area directly in front of the ears isn't visible to people on ground level, so it's a good place for some big air holes.

Fans can be harder to hide, but it can still be done depending on the style of the suit. You'll want the fan facing backwards so that it's blowing out, this removes hot air from the suit.

Wearing sweat-wicking shirts/pants can also help you feel more comfortable.

Of course it still gets hot, but just taking off the head and paws for just a few minutes helps a lot, since these areas of the body are super important for body temp control.

Okay, I understand that you're a furry, and that you know that since PubMed doesn't have any studies on this, that we can't empirically prove our point. But anyone on this website who has actually met a furry (which is almost all of us) will tell you it's inherently sexual.

What percentage of furry artists do porn? What percentage of fursuiters have a DeviantArt account with furry porn in the favorites?

This is probably the most relevant post in this thread. The fact is there is crossover between the design, construction, and wearers of fursuits and cosplay mascot suits. That doesn't make them fetish wear, and arguably less so fetish wear than the sexed up gijinkas seen more often (not that all gijinka are sexy, but you get the point)

Looks like no one actually gives a shit about this thread, but I'll throw in. Pizako (the maker of the bunny suit) is a huge inspiration to me, both as a lolita and an artist. I actually made my own partial suit inspired by her luna character.

Someone linked me this thread, so here I go again:

Hello,

I'm kind of new to the world of cosplay.

I want to replicate a Soviet/USSR uniform (pic related).

I am a furry (yes I know, I'm sorry for the inconvenience), and I want to combine it with my fursona, which is a Soviet themed bear based on a unit in C&C: RA3, the War Bear. As you can tell, I like the Soviet aesthetic, that's the reason of the uniform and why my fursona is basically a Russian bear. This makes it easy for me where I don't have to buy a full fursuit either, just head and paws.

So it will be the uniform, but with a bear head wearing an Ushanka and bear claws on my hands.
If I want to cosplay at a non-furry con, I can always not wear the bear head and paws and just go with the uniform itself.

My problem now is, the army surplus stores here don't have anything Russian related, so I have to start from scratch.
Does anyone know a good online store to buy army themed stuff, especially Soviet/USSR things. I can find some universal things like pouches and such, but I'd like to stay as close as possible to the original uniform.

P.S.: I'm in Europe, so if possible it should be stores who either ship internationally, or something Europe based (it's weird how I'm closer to Russia than US but I can't find shit).

Thanks.

Nayrt but most crafters are a one to three person group and still turn out better craftsmanship. The character commissioned is ugly, I can agree, but when it comes to Rady's consistency in craftsmanship, that's another story. Even the premade designs she sells to turn into fursuits never match up to Rufen's quality, even when just coming down to how evenly the fur is shaven. It's just obvious that she didn't really care about the suits people commissioned from her or her overall brand period. I used to really admire her work since Rufen looked so great, but the more years I followed her work, the more I began to recognize that it was obvious she didn't care about her customers' quality.

I understand not being enthusiastic because you find the character ugly, but it doesn't look good for your brand if all the commissioned suits look like shit compared to your own.

It's worthwhile making sure that sort of thing is not banned in your country. It's not uncommon for replicas of Nazi memorabilia including uniform to fall under prohibited merchandise. It might be the case with Soviet replica merchandise since they were pretty bad.

Trident military uses a mail-order style form. Extremely expensive, but very detailed. You are looking at $400 to $800 dollar. Obviously, quality meant to last a lifetime. No idea if they do worldwide, but it's worth mentioning they are the only one I found easily that was secure.
>https://www.tridentmilitary.com/Reproduction.uniforms.html

Not a secure site, but they do mention worldwide shipping. They take Paypal. Merchandise much cheaper so it's likely not on par with reenactment quality.

The ones you pointed out aren't specific characters, they're just fursonas. So they look however the furry wants them to look, since there's no base to go off like with pre-established characters. Fursuits that aren't emulating a specific character are generally made to look cartoony, hence the eyes.

I'm not keen on the furry community, but I've got to admit that when fur suits are good, they're really good. There's a group of about four that comes to local conventions in fantasy-themed suits that get more elaborate each year that are pretty neat.

I watched a video a while back on how to make the "tracking" trick for eyes and it's just such a clever optical illusion. Little things like that, or airbrushing in detail, makes a big difference between a cheesy mascot suit, and a cool costume.

>The fur used on the chin looks all motted and cheap compared to the rest, like it's been shaved down badly.
Which is the same way Rufen looks in its versions before and even that one is full of flaws, like how it has grey-ish stains next to the lashes and glue all over the nose which makes it look like someone did cum on it.

>White knight all you want but
You are the one praising her Rufen into hell and back while it is the same quality as everything else.

>unless it's one of their new "premades" it looks pretty bad
Funny considering that they are worse, best example is the Griffon with the faulty eyes, uneven horns, missing hair (it hot hair on the ref) or the Tabby with the airbrush that was done before shaving which resulted in wierd spots, the glue stained lashes, the staining all around the mouth, etc.

I always think of mascots in terms of whether they're representing something bigger than just a single character.

Like Pikachu suits. By themselves, they could be a fursuit. But in general, they're mascots, because they're used to represent the Pokemon brand as a whole, rather than just that one character.

So a fursuit can be a mascot suit (Felyne is definitely more like a fursuit than many mascots, for example), or a mascot suit can be something else entirely (ie: those inflatable Pikachus that are used for events, or the suits they use at anime expos for other franchises. Pic related. Not really a fursuit, definitely a mascot suit)

I mean, it can be how it works if you aren't adding any padding. A lot of fursuit makers don't have a solid sewing and tailoring background, so they drape their patterns. You can use a pattern for footie pajamas, or learn2pattern draft.

Seconding. Trying to make a griffin suit so will be needing a bird head.

I'm trying to make my beak out of thermomorph (plastic pellets you drop in hot water until soft and then mold them). It's sturdy but also a lot lighter than using clay.

Same anon you're replying to! I found this one in a google search but I haven't done extensive research since I've been at work all day.

Good idea for the beak! I considered getting worbla or something similar since I've worked with thermoplastics before but I'm still debating.

I'm fairly certain that particular suit's head is built on a resin headblank, and they just left the beak unfurred. If you're looking to just buy something like that and work from there, I and lots of others can vouch for dreamvisioncreation's blanks.

It seems like you could sand it down to be less curved! It might just take a long time. And I'm pretty sure if you want a moving jaw on a foam head, you have to go through a whole other process and don't get quite as crisp or sensitive jaw movements.

I've personally never done it but from a few friends of mine that have, it's a bit of a challenge but thats p much the same with any elaborate cosplay. Thats why most of the time you have someone with you that isn't in a fursuit so that they can pretty much be your eyes and ears. So if you need water, they can get it for you, and if you can't see or hear shit they can help you actually walk around without mowing anyone over.Technically they're called handlers but that sounds too stupid for me to even take it seriously.

Do you guys think that if they were available, there would be a substantial market for fursuit eyes produced in the style of those made for bjds? As in cast with glitter/cabochons/etc. embedded in them (like those produced by Oscar Doll for example, would attach but image limit is maxed).

I think they could look very cool for a sparkledog or kemono style mask.

I for one wouldn't mind seeing eyes like that. Some of them look gorgeous. One issue I see of course is vision. With some masks they do have black/white buckram 'tear ducts' (not sure the exact name of that feature) to see out of instead of eyes. So they'd work there. Otherwise the visibility may be bad.

Also begs the question, how expensive would they be if manufactured in larger sizes?

>> No.9596562

Being someone who owns a K-Line suit and hearing from others who have commissioned Rady, she has totally ripped off these customers. Designs of the sonas being bad or not, my suit personally is riddled with obvious flaws that not even amateur suit makers make.I dont say any of this out of spite, I still like the work K-Line produce but it is really the truth.

There was a period of time people were copying Rufen's design which made Rady depressed (this was around the 2-3 year wait for my fursuit that was promised to be completed in 8 months, long story). This most likely was a big reason to Rady and the K-Line team's lack in quality at the time as well as the long wait for their international fursuit slots.

Again, I still like the suits of quality they make and they did go back to putting more effort in their newer suits. But if you saw mine or a couple other people's suits who commissioned them, it was not worth the $4,500+ I paid for it.

More to the story but would rather save my time writing it out.

>> No.9596786

I imagined they could only be used with tear-duct vision or on neck-vision masks. As for costs, I've seen bjd eye-artists sell eyes close to the needed size (30mm-40mm) sell for around $20 but I don't know at how much of a loss the artists were working at. Oscar Doll which is pretty "luxury" sells 28mm for $40.

>> No.9596795

>>9596786
Forgot to add, my concern is that there isn't a big enough market for "luxury" eyes to be used in fursuits to justify the startup costs since I haven't done any resin crafting before and don't have the materials. My other thought is that they could also be fitted into pendants and jewlery? Regardless I'm thinking it'd be best if I did a lot of artists alleys and marketing at cons which is not within my reach atm.

But yeah how K-Line chose to creating him tho was definitely a rushed job no doubt and if anything, looks like a replica of every ok K-Line suit (which would be fine if only the quality was there).

I'm a pretty forward person, never beat around the bush kind of type so I'll tell ya now there is no denial, like you said and like I said in my video, it is what it is and he still looks cute enough so that's how I take it.

This already exists, even Stuffed Panda Studios makes them seperate for everyone to order at request but is $60 a pop.

I know your sona doesn't look like Rufen, based on the thumbnail pic and the profile pic. But your suit does. Maybe is just the nature of the company always using the same face.

That's what using resin casts does.

Where are you seeing that? As far as I can tell she only makes print-backed resin eyes with nothing embedded which is not what's being discussed.

This is not at all what what we're talking about, this is a flat print style, not made in a "bjd" style.

If you want BJD eyes, do it like everyone else and get them from https://shop416866965.taobao.com/, as they don't need to be used for kig masks only, end of the story.

When I say Rady, overall that's who the customers were speaking to and who at the time was heavily only making these suits. This was proven to me when I stopped getting messages all together until I was told to contact Garasaki and they confirmed this.

As far as I know, all including my fursuit hair are foam. I remember them making some kemono bases but those weren't for their use at the time, they told them at a con from my knowledge.

I guess it comes with just making so many kemono heads that the looks sticks but the look wasn't the issue, just quality.

Oh yeah totally. Didn't mean that's how you saw it nor would it matter really, just that with how basic the sona is in a lot of way, how they could stuff it up and not taking the information I field out in the commission sheet at all while they crafted.

You don't know a lot then as they are resin, you even see the WIPs for new molds getting posted to their IG all the time.

They are still the same headbases Rady has been using since her own studio Pladogs, at least for cats and other chibi-like fursuits, they are lined with foam tho so maybe you assume it because of that?

It's been a while. Forgot that was totally a thing. And trust people of 4chan to be mature about it lol but yeah my suit is all foam based head wise and I'm sure other are too

Yeah it literally flew past me, but I am aware of this. My head tho was just a foam base, I remember asking ages ago and Rady said they will be just foam. Maybe that was for that set of internationals? Also maybe that's why they looked pretty different to each other as well? I don't know, so many unanswered questions.

Well, I think I've said enough on the topic so take the K-Line stuff as you all wish. My experience alone was clearly unfair but im sure there are very happy customers from them. Still love the work they do but its fair to call out the bad stuff, especially in this case where a lot of my and other customers money was involved and the wait + lack of communication (and in my case small lies too, e.g. Being told the fur takes a lot of time to come in then seeing a complete suit 2 weeks after but they had waited 2, nearly 3 years for the fur to come in?) Such a long story ugh.

Enjoy the rest of your day

One last thing if you don't mind, when you emailed them, are they fluent in English? I just like looking at fursuits so I don't know indepth about the makers, but I know KLine is Japanese so.
