Time Lapse: Creating a mascot/fursuit foam base

[@dakotazerum4214]

You achieved a very nice looking muzzle thickness, its not to thick and not to thin, it fits the design well and your sculpting is very smooth, good job ^^

what is hat saw thing called that u use to shape and cut the foam, I'm kindof tired at this point of scissors for the whole head t doesent cut so evenly.

[@LasiralCosplay]

It's an electric knife. It's supposed to be used in the kitchen (to cut turkey ect) but it works wonders on foam! You can buy them from 10-25$. Just never use it on food after using it!! I've heard people buy them used, but imo get a brand new one that hasn't touched food before.

[@Pennylane3113]

Two things one how much would you say it costs to make a fursuit head? And two do you think you can make a tutorial on how to make a pattern for the frontal view of the head?

[@LasiralCosplay]

+Sburbanfur314 Its hard to lock down a price on the materials since it can vary due to the complexity and the quality of fur. Throwing a number out there i'd say at least a good 100$ in materials alone i guess? I haven't bought stuff in a while XD I've been trying to use up my stock of foam and furs that i've gathered over the years. I do have a video of me doing the duct tape pattern,. but it's just me sitting there adding duct tape and then adding my lines. I've been debating about posting it since it's kinda boring. I meant to film the rest after that (transferring the pattern to fur, cutting it out, sewing, and then finally setting it onto the head) but due to deadlines i had to stop filming so i could focus on getting my work done >.
