Hi anon, it's kosu-anon. I finished the skirt but since today is Sunday, I decided to take a day off to rest. I will continue on Monday.

>>23238709

it feels like /fumo/ is just /out/ or /trv/ fused with /toy/

>>23240482
That's because adding fumo to any picture, no matter how mundane will instantly make it more interesting.

>>23240525
sure, also i really like this picture

>>23240482
Don't forget about /k/, the amount of armed fumos I see here is crazy

>>23242044
that's just one /fum/k/anon

I would say there's at least three or four of us, which is quite a few.

>>23242497

Looks cute! But why is she in a wheelchair?

>>23243219
She is going through cosmetic surgery (custom fumo making)

>>23243255
i believe the technical term is transfumotion

>>23243255
Fact: Custom fumos have a suicide percentage of over 40%

>>23243182

I wish I could afford it
It looks really fun

bye bye

fumofumo are infinitely squishable, returning to their initial cuddle state after the pressure is removed; they are designed for even the most physically and ontologically impossible of hugs

hatate forgives you anon

>>23244730
Hatate fumos are notorious for sneaking off to cuddle with men besides their owners. Be careful, Anon.

>>23245606
do you really call crushing with hydraulic press as casual cuddle?

KEEP IT COMMING GUYS

Anybody have a fumo pattern? Want to make my own funny friends.

I've been meaning to compile a pic of my current Fumoly

>>23256360
I want to ask. How did you improve so much in so little time? Been following your progress since your first Yugi.

>>23256360
All your custom fumos look great but that Keine and Miyoi fumos are extra awesome!

>>23256405
Thank you for the compliment, but I honestly have no clue. Based on how I make fumos I should not be making any real progress.
I don't practice, I take months in between each custom usually, i usually only take 1-3 days to make one while most other people take closer to a week at least, planning consists of me thinking of a character and envisioning what the general process would look like in my head, and the big kicker, i do not take measurements, at all, for any part, i just eyeball everything.
So your guess is as good as mine in that regard
>>23256440
Thank you! I really wanted my Miyoi to be as close as possible to the actual art as possible.

>>23256360
I want to make a family pic, but I have too many fumos

>>23256568
do what i did, take a bunch of pics and put them together in paint

Kosuzu's apron is finished. Done for today. Her hair begins tomorrow.

>>23256599
she is turning out great so far anon!

>>23256568
Marisa also likes to "acquire" items from her favorite game

The council of fumos.

>>23256868
I hope there will be an Okina next for the chair.

>>23257034
welp, I have sumireko on my to-do list for customs, but I could do an Okina. We'll see what happens.

I just used Buyee for the first time and ordered a Cirno fumo from akiba hobby, Feeling a bit nervous but I hope it all turns out well!

>>23260515
Cirno may be a Baka, but she won't get lost on the way to her new home

i bought a tanned cirno on jp amazon for $50 bad deal? scam? thoughts?

Kosuzu is complete. I just need to put on her dog tag to officially welcome her into the family.

dammit, I added the vertical pic. Let me post the horizontal one.

I've heard of sumo wrestling but what would fumo wrestling look like?

>>23264843
I'm taking her with me on a future fumoventure once the virus calms down.

She looks like she would bake you a fresh batch of muffins

Taking portraits of my fumos while in quarantine makes being stuck inside for weeks during spring a little bit more bearable.

>>23289430
A rare occurance. Only about 1 in 100 become corn dogs.

>>23289798
It increases to 20 in 100 if you're holding a Tenshi fumofumo

>>23289915
That is true. Tenshi fumo increases the chance.

>>23289937
how are you posting this if your a corndog

>>23280467
My fumo has been ordering a lot of takeout since the pandemic started
Doesn't she know we can just cook at home!

>>23297130
She wants you to spend less time cooking and more time hugging

Also fumos love modern conveniences like shopping, ordering food, and unlimited internet access

cirno has finally shipped!

I love Patchouli and would like to buy a Patchy fumo.
Where's the best place to buy one? I've never bought one before.

>>23301148
Check the links in the OP, buyee is probably the best place to look.

>>23301148
Buying a patchy fumo is a big responsibility.
Do you have enough books for the grumpy librarian?

>>23256461
Hi, I'm new to this thread and it sounds like you made all those fumos yourself? I was thinking of adding sewing to my bucket list of things to do during the quarantine. So if I may bother you with a few questions, then... Did you have any prior experience with anything before making fumos? Do you have any guides or resources you mind sharing for making fumos? And do you have any words of advice for someone getting into making fumos?

The thing about the lock down, I get to cuddle more fumos!

>>23306727
>Did you have any prior experience with anything before making fumos?
No, my first Yuugi I taught myself to sew as I went along. With all of my fumos, I do the sewing by hand, but I know some sew the clothes with machine and then sew it onto the fumo by hand.
I would say 99% of custom fumo makers use a preexisting fumo as a base, remove the hair and clothes, and make new clothes and hair, while potentially changing the eye color.
>Do you have any guides or resources you mind sharing for making fumos?
Due to the fact that character design diversity is really really high for touhou, any guide that would deviate from "okay make a shirt, but fumo sized" would devolve into character specific stuff real quick. But, zerokonbu2, a really nice guy I've met, has made several videos of his custom fumo making process, its a slideshow, but it currently serves as the best there is right now in terms of active documentation.

>And do you have any words of advice for someone getting into making fumos
Follow this general process, think of the character you want. Then, think of what fumo has an expression that matches what you want in a fumo of that character. Buy them, as for other supplies, I use knitted fabrics for clothing due to its softer and stronger nature, alongside it oftentimes not fraying when cut. For hair, I have used minky, blizzard fleece, and anti-pill fleece, and all of them are rather good for fumo hair. Much like clothing fabric though, just go to a fabric store, find the colors you need, and then just start feeling different fabrics to see what feels good to you and looks good at the same time. For painting eyes, which is often necessary, its actually quite easy, just take it slow and remember youll probably need to apply multiple layers, use an acrylic paint, and youll be fine. Removing the clothing of the preexisting fumo is easy, there are 1-2 anchor stitches on the belly button and directly opposed from that on the back, snip those and you can either slide off or bisect the clothing. The hair its really just giving a fumo a haircut down to the scalp with a pair of fabric shears. Last thing, making a fumo is not the hardest thing in the world. Take your time, be patient, and itll turn out fine. There may be times throughout the whole process wherein you think its turning out terrible, it doesnt look good, etc, for my miyoi >>23256440 I thought that up until I was stitching on the last bits of the skirt. When incomplete, do not let its current look make you think it looks terrible. Lastly, dont be afraid to mess up, making clothes you can easily redo, same with hair patterns. Removing the hair is hard to truly mess up on. and as long as you take it slowly, eye painting should bring you no trouble.
If you have anymore questions please ask

>>23308933
>think of the character you want. Then, think of what fumo has an expression that matches what you want in a fumo of that character.
Oh yeah, one addendum I wanna make here. Expression is the most important definer you should use as a custom base. However, it is possible to change it, I don't know if anyone else has done this, but for my Ruukoto, I took the :< expression of Sakuya and made it a smile, but pulling out the previous mouth with a needle, uplifting the thread and removing it, then hand stitching a new mouth. Again, it kinda sorta isn't really a thing that people do, and I have no other documented cases of people doing that. So that one you'd largely be going into uncharted territory, and I would only say do it as a last resort, or in the case of something like my ruukoto, if the base otherwise is literally perfect.

>>23319532
For the past couple of years it was 2 new releases per year, one at each reitaisai. However, this reitaisai WAS going to be scheduled 3 months early to compensate for the olympics, so because of that they didn't do any new fumo, just reprints

Probably Marisa or Patchy

>>23331501
I really don't understand Bezos search logic but try this - note that most of the prices are Jewish
https://www.amazon.co.jp/s?k="ふもふも"+"ぬいぐるみ"
There are some Patchy's but I didn't look beyond page 2, so I don't know if there are any Marisas.
Performing that search without any quotes returns less results...

Alternatively, if you ever go to Tokyo, there are a bunch of stores that keep them in stock in Akihabara for roughly the same price GIFT has them.

I was gonna ask, do you wash them the same way you would a regular fumo? My Youmu's getting real dusty...

does anyone know why my fumo sometimes have trouble sitting down?

>>23459390
Fumos are a very active folk, it is not uncommon to see fumos participating in high intense sports.
So by nature they sometimes refuse to sit down, hope that helps!

>>23459390

I could use some advice. Someone I know has become very jealous of me because of my role in the fumo community. I didn't want to say this publicly but it's getting to me now. What should I do and say to this person? What you you guys say to them? Any help would be appreciated

>>23462510
Just talk it out with them. If they are legitimately willing to end a friendship over social clout in an incredibly niche plush doll community, then they may not be worth having as a friend

>>23462510
i would say try and figure out what they're exactly jealous of, but keep in mind >>23462568
i wouldnt say its worth ruining your friendship over though, but if thats unavoidable thats unavoidable

Thank you for the advice, but what is it that you would say to them directly?

>>23461795
Good job, Yuugi! My Yuyuko is more enamored with the idea of eating than cooking... as can be seen

>>23462919
Are they actually envious or are you thinking that they are envious?

In any event, it's never worth escalating things or calling someone out or whatever, over real or imagined sleights. Just let them depressurize.

This is why I don't do Discord

>>23462510
Bro it's obvious who you are. It's not only me who has a problem with you, it's just that no one wants to say anything. ffs.

>>23462510
Just tell them. Bringing it here is not a good idea for anyone...

>>23463894
Why? Who do you think I am?

>>23464117
Yeah, it probably wasn't the best idea. I just wanted to ask other members of the fumo community about it.

>>23464240
This is the type of advise best done with friends who know you and do or don't know the person you're talking about.
Unless you're Yumemey. In which case all their jealousy is justified

>>23464488
The issue is that their not responding to me, but are talking behind my back

discord drama is very unsoft, please post soft girls

>>23464588
Sorry mate, you're in a lose lose position right now. If you ignore or it, he spreads more hate about you, if you call him out, you make a situation awkward for people in the server. Me personally, I'd stop trying to be their friend, let your actions speak for themselves. You have a role most don't, and ultimately it's their word vs yours. Don't lose sleep over people who don't lose sleep over you. Hug your fumo and get some sleep anon, do what's best for you.

>>23464811
I think that is what I'll do. Thank you for your advice

>>23457345
Why are Nendos shown in the Toy Strap 1 column? They are full sized.

>>23461746
Seeing cheese in a jar makes me sad. Parmigiano-Reggiano is the correct Parmesan cheese; if you eat pasta even semi-regularly, please try it - just shave it onto the pasta/sauce with a sharp knife. It keeps in the fridge for easily 6+ months, in a zip-lock bag.

>>23465885
>Why are Nendos shown in the Toy Strap 1 column? They are full sized.
My guess is that whoever made the chart confused the strap nendoroid fumos with the nendoroid plus line

>>23457345
Wonder why they haven't done another Inu Sakuya.
