Sorry if the quality is low! 🤕 ALSO I FORGOT TO ADD MUSIC AR THE END HELLPPPP

[@Lpswiggily4225]

What if you don’t have card stock ? Can you use regular paper?

[@Dr_Lereda2215]

It's okay! This tutorial is still a pretty good one and I think it's gonna be helpful to me in the future :))

[@AxolotlDragons-973]

@Rain.luvs.dragons im guessing yes? But ALOT of it and make sure it’s good quality

[@AxolotlDragons-973]

@@Lpswiggily4225 yeah I bet you can. It might be a bit floppy tho :/

[@AxolotlDragons-973]

@Drybloom probably and it would look kinda cool. I would just make sure it’s not very see through

[@LouiBlueyW]

watching people especially the youth in particular find different ways to make fursuits without expensive materials is such a wonderful sign of innovation amongst the community im so glad this looks great!!

[@ElectroPopsicle]

Paper suits are one of the best way to make a suit if you dont have the money, or you are just young and wanna make a suit! This is such a good tutorial!

[@snailthecat]

honestly i think this is a great way to get introduced into fursuiting. starting with a giant foam head can be a lot to handle and its super expensive. i glad to see people are finding cheaper ways!

[@tempest_5]

YOU TOOK “ I’m creative!” TO A NEW LEVEL- THAT IS A MASTERPIECE

[@corey5613]

Thank you! This along with your ear and tail tutorial are really helpful for people who aren’t in a financial position to buy a fursuit, or are in a community where fursuiting isn’t accepted and need to privately make a suit.

[@Gooseknox]

Oh my GOODNESS. I am a fursuit maker and I am SHOCKED at how amazing this is!!! I never even thought about making a fursuit out of paper. It makes me so happy to see such creative minds in the fandom, being able to think outside the box in such a way!! This looks just as good as a head made with foam (and WAYYYYYYYY better than my earlier works)!!! Seriously amazing and so creative, and because you practicing a lot now, if you do ever decide to make a fursuit head using foam and fur, you'll be a natural! Literally so cool!!!!

[@peskyy.prince]

not sure if someone already said this, but for the eyes, you can also use those coloured translucent sweet wrappers!! for example, when you unwrap a quality street (i think) it has tinfoil and this translucent wrapper stuff. that's also a good thing to use ^^

[@mmaxmax6]

i like doing these to plan out my actual fursuits! it lets me experiment with face shapes and patterns without having to waste all that money on practice foam

[@AyrsiHousley-br7nw]

Tysm this helped ALOT and now because of this AMAZING tutorial I was able to somehow make a snow leopard fursuit head w a canine fursuit head tutorial. That's how much it helped

this is so awesome for younger or inexperienced fursuiters who don’t have the money or materials to make one out of foam and faux fur!! as one myself I will definitely be using this tutorial (with a few definite style tweaks) to make one of my own!! thank you so much for posting this tutorial

[@madama3844]

That is amazing I am forever impressed by the creativity of other furries

[@madama3844]

Edit: I just went and checked out your socials and you so young! Im so damn impressed!!! these are awesome and you absolutely do not deserve any hate you're getting about them, keep it up man absolutely keep it up!!

[@Dakota-Is-Dead]

AAA!! I’m gonna go and try and convince my mom to take me to the store to get card stock to make my fursona Trinket! She’s a cat so ima try and follow all these steps besides the canine snout thing :) ty for posting this!!

[@SomeoneWhoIzMe]

I've been wanting to become a furry for a while, but i just can't get started on a fursuit, and i suppose making a paper fursuit head is a good start, wish me luck guys :D

[@Sassy-zi7pl]

You don’t have to have a fursuit to be a furry or a fursona you just have to like anthropomorphic animals ( I’ve also being dying for a Fursuit)

[@AlexaHernandez-rp8fc]

I think my fursona can watch me everywhere and watch me sleep cuz I have my fursona everywhere

[@Sassy-zi7pl]

[@localdragonpuppeteer]

Thats epic! Heres a tip btw: since its made put of paper you should wear a balaclava! If you cant then you could tape a plastic bag or something on the inside to block your sweat from molding the paper! It worked for me :)

[@chelsea-s-Dela-cruz]

What is a balaclava?

[@localdragonpuppeteer]

@@chelsea-s-Dela-cruz it's like a ski mask thing I think but fursuiters commonly wear it! :)

Hey Elliot! I doubt you’d see this bug in a huge fan! Your partials are amazing and so is the talent you have to make those. I wanted to say thank you for the tutorial now I can officially have a fursuit while being broke 😊❤

[@Kids4Breakfast5]

I should have watched this before i started on my cardboard head... still turned out great tho! Thank you so much Elliot, you gave me motivation to finally do something with the materials I have!

[@scarecrow2966]

all of this is genius! love it! ive always considered making one out of paper, but never got to it out of it not being durable.

[@pixel_byte326]

This is so helpful! It's a cheap alternative and looks as good as the real deal, might use cardboard for mine to make sure nothing is flattened when I do taping

[@Fern-xu1sb]

You know you needed this tut when you’re sitting there, next to your failed attempts without a tutorial trying to pick which fursona to make first.

[@Toastytoast-444]

Tip: try using fabric mesh for the eyes if u want to paint it more

Definitely gonna give this a try i was so excited to see you had posted a tutorial on how to make a paper suit head!! I have a bunch of colored paper and cardstock. Cant wait to make a suit head just got to figure out if i want to make one of an exsisting fursona or make a new one lol. Keep up the amazing work my guy!

[@FinnNado]

I think I may use you're tutorial as a guide for framework but then finish it off paper mache style. Idk though, I like how the cardstock looks and paper mache would be bulky but also would be sturdier. I guess I'll see when I get there lol

[@Ilovecheese3773]

Be careful because the paper can collect sweat and it grows black mold and black mold can cause problems

Me too! What I always did, since I used to make paper stuff kinda similar to this, was find old blankets, sheets, or clothes nobody cared about that I was ok with the feeling of, and lining it with that.

THS IS SO CREATIVE AND AWESOME???? OMG????? I'LL DEFINETELY TRY IT OUT FOR MYSELF

[@Gherkin_Granger]

I was inspired by your videos to become a furry myself, and I am forever grateful for that! Your paper fursuits are an incredibly creative and cheap alternative to standard fursuits, which I am also grateful for as my broke ass could never afford to buy one and I despise using sewing machines. However, my fursona is a moth, which is by no means a common furry type, so I was looking for some advice on how to alter this design to better suit a moth furry! I'm only really concerned about how to make the head a bit more rounder than what it is right now, as the tutorial is meant for canine fursuits, so if anyone has ideas on how to make this work, please share them with me! Have a great day!

[@9879la]

[@heyonnaise3138]

I'm not exactly part of the furry community (its hard to ignore at this point as there's so much good art inspo on pinterest 😭), but this could really help a lot of people get the hang of things with paper!! I've been making things out of paper recently and when I saw this I was going insane. Like, omg the look on this thing?? Oml??

[@heyonnaise3138]

OH MY GOD NEW IDEA This is before you add coloured paper, but after you've added all the duct tape 1. Cover it in glue (hopefully one that doesn't reactivate under water, this will make the head, stronger, more solid, and more waterproof) 2. Add your fluffy dangly bits and cover in duct tale and glue too (YOU GOTTA DO THIS BEFORE STEP 3) 3. Use paint over the glue for where you want which colours (Acrylic is very good for strong colours very quickly, but can crack. Fabric/ puffy paint is flexible and tough, but needs multiple coats and is quite expensive in bulk) 4. USE AN EPILEPTIC SEIZURE'S WORTH OF WASHII TAPE (Add glue on top as a sealant on top of all that if you're real anxious about the tape falling off or the paint dulling. Also don't use a cloudy glue or something, use a liquid one that dries clear, use thinner layers to avoid creating or making more bubbles) Does this work? Probably not. Is it a dumb idea? Absolutely. Would one care about the laws of physics once washii tape has been mentioned? HAH, NO.

im tired of people always saying: "but what if it grows mold?" if paper suits can mold, then so can regular foam suits. mold grows from humidity, and if youre a paper suiter then youll probably have enough common sense to keep it from getting wet.

[@Woogshort]

Yea and only wear it for short periods of time because it will absorb your sweat

considering the finished product is covered in duct tape, do you think it'd be possible to do the paper base and then put fake fur/fabric onto it? i've always wanted to make a fursuit, and i think the hardest part would be working with foam but i'd love to have the fur texture still ^_^
