Construction Methods

Heads

My fursuit heads are built on a custom TPU and hollow foam headbase. Every aspect of the headbase can be changed and adjusted, as they are 3D modeled and printed by myself.

As they are hollow, my heads are generally lightweight. Hair, horns, antlers, and other factors can increase the weight of a head, however.

All of my heads are fully lined with quilted broadcloth, and are adjustable via wide elastic straps and velcro attached to forehead padding. This technique makes them glasses-friendly by default.

Eye blanks are 3D printed PETG, and the eye designs are sublimated onto computer mesh.

While I sew as much as I can, some of the details of the suit are glued on. This includes the lips, eyebrows, and eyelashes.

Bodysuits

Bodysuits are double stitched with a straight stitch, followed by a zigzag for durability and cleanliness. They are machine stitched as much as possible, though smaller markings may need to be hand sewn with a blanket stitch.

The front zipper is lined, and necklines are finished with a mochi minky cuff.

Tails are attached via zipper and belt loops.

Padding is made of sturdy sewn-in spacer mesh pockets, with zippers to easily adjust polyfil stuffing for cleaning and maintenance.

Paws

Handpaws are unlined to help with heat, and cuffed at the wrist with mochi minky. They have removable padding pillows, for easy washing. All seams are double stitched.

Feetpaws are hollow TPU and foam shells. They have a sockpaw style interior, with room for shoes, and are lined with quilted broadcloth, colorfast neoprene, or spacer mesh.

The bottoms of outdoor feet are tough shoe rubber, and indoor feet have fur and fabric bottoms.
