[HOW TO MAKE] SUPER-MOTION FELINE TAILS

GET THE PATTERN HERE:
⚫ www.artbyneffertity.com/store...
-----
This tail was made as part of a partial fursuit commission, and as such is not for sale.
I wanted to go more in-depth with this one, but due to lack of motivation and just general bleh weather affecting me lately I didn't manage to film as much as I wanted.
That said, I still think it came out pretty cool and easy to understand!
I also intended to (and made several times) add the Patreon and Fanart Feature screens. But since upgrading my graphics card I've been encountering issues with certain programs that may need a fresh install.
Which does mean I'll lose all editing on my current tutorials. ;-;
Things will be a bit slow-going as I find my stride with this whole Verified KZbinr world I've entered.

:0 THE TIMING ON THIS IS PERFECT! I'm going to work on my snow leopard suit soon and a cougar one for my friend so this is perfect!!

[@kitkatyas]

You NEED to post the progress i would watch that definitely

[@robingeorga3343]

I’m working on my house cat fursuit and I mainly have the tail and paws to make still

[@jojo_the_ojo375]

Bro I said the same thing!!!

[@FireBunnyOfficial]

Omg! U have suits? Start a u tube channel so I can see how to make them ppplllzzz

[@FireBunnyOfficial]

I want a fursuit so bad

[@zilusx5351]

I find it funny that when you said "Indoor house cat tail" a cat came running by at the same time 😂 But great tutorial! I always wanted to make a feline tail, but I wasn't sure where to start, you're an inspiration to me! 💙

[@PixelFurr]

I was looking for this comment! ❤

[@Animeloversplace]

Same-

[@angiekawaii4747]

I thought that was a dog😭🙏🏻

[@Onyx_the_fur]

The cats name is Cheeto!

[@thatratingreentea]

he was summoned 😌

[@danield1303]

2:54 I love that your cat walks by exactly as you said that

[@PixelFurr]

Looking for this comment ❤

[@yourlocaltherapistfriend5091]

I'm not a furry but damn it is so fun to watch these videos, so much effort is put into these its insane

[@wolfkin5503]

I agree with both of you xD

[@deleted667]

Fr but then people are just like : being a furry is easy! Or furries are cringe. Ew your a furry? *scoff*

[@yourlocaltherapistfriend5091]

@@deleted667 people who say that being a furry is easy is in denial. No. You just have no skill so have never experienced it and figured out how much effort it takes.

[@SIERRAA2010]

@@yourlocaltherapistfriend5091 exactly, I’ve been making fursuits for two years and I still have a long way to go before I’m good, being a furry is a lot of work, time, head, hand, and backaches. and I’ve seen so many amazing furries get nothing but hate because people are very uneducated and out of the know. I would *very highly* recommend to research anything for this matter before saying anything.

[@yourlocaltherapistfriend5091]

@@SIERRAA2010 well, I can't speak from experience, I have yet to create anything of the sort, but I have seen my sister try and fail to create paws, but she's trying really hard to get the shape correct. I do have some small scale plush experience though, and just from that it's obvious that larger scale projects take enormous amounts of effort, time, material and motivation. I haven't watched as many furry creation videos as I have other content, but I assure you I have seen enough to know that unless I underwent creating a suit myself I cannot fathom to what end one will go to through all the pain of sewing and continuous effort for such a beautiful and rewarding product. Have a nice day/night :) (sorry for being probably too wordy, I don't like being misunderstood, this is genuine)

[@furrasher]

I made a tailbase (too lazy to fur right now, but ye) using one of your tutorials like 2 months ago, and since I don't have an electic knife, I had to do it all with scissors. It took me like 4 days just to carve it and I still hurt my hand even though I took a lot of brakes! I really recomend getting an electic knife, even though I don't have one of my own! I 💙 you Neffy💙

[@kittcatanimations7489]

Thats impressive!

[@Sapphire_Nightcrest]

R.I.P your hand 💀

[@neonfox582]

a knife is literally the first thing I bought lol i hear all these stories about horrible hand pain and i was like ye fuk no and i immediently went and found a cheap carving knife online and ordered it with what little money I had

[@STELLAISONFIRE]

I know this was months ago but if you still dont have one, I recommend looking in Ace Hardware! They have some really good high quality ones.

[@chiannsmith6803]

And this is why despite not being a furry, I have raw appreciation for the furry community :D! This tutorial is gonna make me building the tail on my Naomi Cosplay soo much easier thank you! (For anyone curious Naomi is a catgirl character out of the mobile game Summoner's War. She's an attack class monster and one of my favorite characters in the game)

[@Neffertity]

I'm always happy to hear my content aids cosplayers as well! :D

[@_lunisgaming_2827]

The pain of hand sewing the stripes is unimaginable😭

[@indie_day]

Did u know u made me a furry

[@ImAFurry999]

Me too

[@Beetle-WithPaws]

I recently really got into being a furry again, since I knew what a furry was I kind of realized I was one but with her I started to really get back into it

[@user-vt1kx3gf9x]

Ahahahahahaha😂😂😂😂

[@beedaweirdo]

i love how when she was talking about ‘a house cat tail’ her cat walked through the screen in the background right at that moment😂😂😂

[@PixelFurr]

Yesss❤

[@Eveleencat]

Purrfect timing on this video! Me and my friend are working on a Liger half suit for me and this video will be so helpful to having a somewhat realistic tail! Thanks for making this video!!!

[@Neffertity]

Oooo sounds awesome!

[@TiamatStorm21]

Honestly couldnt have asked for better timing on this video! I have been struggling so much with the idea of how to create a long tail that would move this way and then i saw the way you put the elastic on the moving parts to strengthen it and it was like a lightbulb moment ! I have been following your channel for a long time and watching as much as i could to do my research and finally i think i am ready to start my first fursuit... *stress*

[@Neffertity]

I'm so happy you found it helpful! I'd love to see when you're done!

[@Athena9008]

wow super early for this! Im wondering where she gets these huge blocks of foam as I've been looking around but maybe not hard enough. I want to make a super motion avali tail and my fursona tail. :)

[@KylianTheArtist]

Try micheals or online like Amazon thats where I get my foam She gets her foam from home depot

[@Neffertity]

Usually Home Depot

[@kalarhifauxe8202]

Canadian tire has foam like this in their camping department for under sleeping bags

[@U.R.coolkid]

Avali tails are the best, thank you for your contribution to avali creations!

[@Naravayax]

I find loads of four inch and three inch foam in Walmart, Joann’s, and hobby lobby. I recommend Joann’s because they have different amounts

[@whisepr]

“Indoor house cat tail” That cat is a paid actor

[@FurociousStudios]

this tail is STUNNING. I cannot put it into enough words at how inspirational you are to me. I very much admire how you were somehow able to make all those stripes line up with that tail. let alone have the mental capacity to do all that sewing XD I've used your tutorials for some paws and tails, and I absolutely can't wait to make a sergal fullsuit! all the best :)

[@foxygames165]

I think a lot of people overlook just how much goes into every piece of every fursuit. The craftsmanship on this is out of this world.

[@wall_sniper]

I came back to this because I’m working on my fursuit! I remember seeing your explanation on markings, and I came back because I was too stubborn to watch anything else :)

[@wall_sniper]

Status update: I’m furring the head

[@tirsarodriguez4296]

My daughter absolutely loves cats and will try to use anything as a tail and ears. So glad I found your video. I'm gonna try to make her a tail! Wish me luck!

[@Neffertity]

Best of luck! You've got this!

[@dragonfan3934]

I love when you said "indoor house cat" in the beginning your cat walked by!

[@littlemissslothgirl2953]

Howl Fabrics is surprisingly decently priced! Specially for the amount you get! I definitely will think about purchasing there if I start making fursuits!

[@weezer_number_one_fan]

I get so excited when I see your tutorials. Beautifully executed and in depth for an amazing result 💛

[@Metqa]

11:30 P1 - "She thinks blanket stitches belong in clothing..." P2 - "... Do they not??" P1 - "They are BLANKET stitches. The belong in BLANKETS!!!" This is the funniest sewing statement I ever heard and it was in a My Little Pony parody! Thanks for the amazing detailed videos! Years ago I wanted to make a costume, but because it would have involved sewing fancy fabric , I just gave up the idea. Seeing your videos makes me want to try it again after all! I wanted to make a dragon Outfit with a shiny scale tail but I couldn't figure out how to make it dynamic and not just a floppy piece of stuffed fabric. Costume design has come a long way and this is fabulous

[@StalwartTirith]

Everything about this is amazing! Thank you for going into such detail and producing such high quality videos.

[@baxterderg]

Wonderful tutorial!! Thank you for everything you do, Neff!❤️

[@heatherbagley7668]

YES FINALLY My Fursona is a White saber-tooth tiger and i haven't been able to find a feline tail tutorial anywhere! Thank you so much, this is why you're my favorite fursuit tutorial makers. Not to mention you're a creative and wonderful human in general, so-

[@pumathrine4201]

Keep in mind smilodons (sabertooths/saberteeth) usually have small tails. Like a dog tail that has been cut. Not telling you how to make your own oc, just giving fun facts ^_^

[@heatherbagley7668]

@@pumathrine4201 I'm a sucker for really long luscious tails, so Alara has a long thick tail haha

[@airshipmayhem9905]

Thank you for showing me how it's done

[@lovenez1781]

Thank you!! This how to motion tail video was a lot more easier to understand. Showing a closer look at how you do the cuts and even the sewing was very helpful. Again thanks for taking the time and making these types of videos. Keep up the wonderful work!!

[@crystalcameraworks7640]

another FABULOUS tutorial!! thank you for always making videos, and being so inspirational all the time!! love your videos!!!

[@MarissaSins]

i never thought to put foam in the tail!! this is an amazing idea, thank you so much for sharing

Thank you for the tutorial, I needed a good base tutorial for my tiefling tail for super motion

[@6say.gex9]

Hey Nefertiti! I just sold my very first fursuit tail!!! Tysm for all the tutorials, they’ve been a great help! It was a floor dragger, and the strategy you use for the base of your fursuit tails helped me find a way I can make them so they aren’t wonky. I’m so thankful I watch/found your videos, otherwise I wouldn’t be here :DD

[@Neffertity]

I'm happy to hear that! Congrats on your first sale!

[@andreca90]

I just had to comment on the amount of patience you have, my friend!!! Kudos to that!! Congrats on this fantastic idea and execution!! ❤

[@RhiannonSmudge]

I want to thank you Nef for all the tutorials you do, I've recently just made my first plush using these videos as a guide it turned out a little derpy, but I still love the fact that I actually managed to make a plush despite it being my first time sewing ever ^^

[@kochathegobiton6901]

Thanks for another great video Neffertity 🥰 super motion tails seem like a lot of fun and I'm really excited to try making one

[@somedumbass6738]

YOUR TUTORIALS ARE A LIFESAVEERRRR

Finally bit the bullet and made my first ever fursuit tail with a lot of help from this tutorial, thank you so much for your wonderful videos!

The day I have the time, money and resources, I’m gonna go back to these videos and try them out

[@nikafoxx6197]

amazing! your tutorials are always pure greatness, you could probably even make a slim dragon like tail by carving the end to a gradual point. I loved your paw tutorial, hopefully get the fur soon. I will definitely be using your Canine super motion tail tutorial for making Nika's tail. (so far her head base is almost complete!) You are an amazing person Neff! Your cats are so adorable, even if they get underfoot sometimes haha Have a great day and (soon!)Merry Christmas Neff!

[@LunaticSuits]

this is a good idea too ^^ i made mine with foam up to the curve but left enough to lightly stuff it at the bottom ^^
