Tail help

Bir

Dream a little dream of me..
What is this? People you cannot find good faux fur just anywhere. It's one of those things that needs to be ordered online. Knitting store. Goddamnnit.


XD

As much as this would work for me, I agree. But I don't know how much quality the OP is looking for. It seems like OP just wants to make a tail, regardless of how nice the fur is. And ya know, some people just don't care. Fake fur is fake fur. But that's why there are specialty fursuit makers and just fursuit makers. : /

okay. Now for the blueprint most really don't help..or depending on where you go its gonna look like a skunk's tail attached to your butt (my first mistake when i first made a tail) Your going for a tube like shape that ends with a tapered end. So i suggest you draw or sketch what each piece is going to be (i'd say about 4 parts would go to the tail. Back and front and for each color)

You really should buy online. Jo-anns usually has terrible grizzly fun fur that would make someone think you just took toothbrush strands and glued them on. So quality fir is the best. Also you will want some polyfill. Its the stuffing inside pillows and such.

Sewing is not hard. Its just very time consuming if you don't own a sewing machine (which i wouldn't use because fur can get caught and mess up the machine)

FURRIES, why the hell is it so hard to get you to understand this stuff?
1. Buy your fur online from the above listed sources.
2. Use a turorial. Here's another one> [LINK] and [LINK]
3. No you can't use knitting supplies/paper/ducttape/superglue on your fursuit.
4. No you can't make a fursuit out of shitty materials as it will fall apart and make you look creepy.
