Is there a chance that you will make a cloudjumper costume/suit? I would love to see one

[@barkbarkgrrrsnarlbarkbarkb3975]

I’ve been binge watching your fursuit making videos all morning

[@crustyanimations6208]

Do you think you could do a tutorial on long floppy dog/rabbit ears? If not, thanks for the kind of tutorials you already make because theyre so cool!

[@0Worm0AJ]

Crusty animations yes! I rlly need one

[@griseldaruiz476]

Yay the first tutorial!!!

[@MrFancyDragon]

YOU TURN THE LIGHTS OFF THEN YOU TURN THEM BACK ON!!! (Reference to a specific song I cannot remember) TO BE CONTINUED...

[@chloepeters6217]

I think that a Cow head base would be cool to see.

[@AlsoMeowskivich]

Nice to see another look at a moving jaw head. I wonder if anyone has made OC versions of the toothless dragons.

[@WhoXyr0]

OMG YOU ARE INSANELY......... AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@toothless9226]

Which kind of machine do you take for cutting the foam? I had problems to cut the big parts for the headbases with a scissor. My mouth is fixed with elastic band on the head, I have the balaclava separately.

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

It's an electric knife

[@Youngmasturr]

I use electric knife too so I recommend it

[@tinypurpledragon7060]

I wanna try to make a fursuit eventually and I'll be sure to use your tutorials as a way for help

[@jess97630]

if only this video was posted monday when i started making my nightfurry head base

[@projectsekal]

Awesome! The movie was pretty sad tho.

[@_bentleyboy3000_]

Oh, wow! This is incredible. Great work! :)

[@mizvme6949]

Wow this video is so amazing and all of your fursuits are so cool

[@arrow_mc1753]

Thank you SO much for this! I’ve been looking for a tutorial on how to make one for almost three months o-o

[@thatgamersergalchick4789]

The moving jaw method is very interesting, can't wait to try it on my digimon build. Thanks as always 🖤💜

[@lezbean3755]

FINNALY IM REALLY EARLY!!!!!!

[@silverflower7226]

WOW. I need words :0

[@x4ggravatex]

Thank you! I always have wanted to do a head base like this, mainly because I have a night fury that looks kinda like this. One question though, do we have to smooth out the top of the base???

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

Yes because the dragons are smooth on the top of their heads, and when you put fabric on it you will see everything that isn't smooth

[@Youngmasturr]

I want a suit from u sooo badly how long are you taking commissions for so I can get time to save up

[@Solirris]

Hwo did you do this, like the editing and stuff with being live btw, irl without speeding it up how long did it take you?

[@jiusenok7122]

Hello, its beutifull. Can you shoot a tutorial on how to make a shark's head cartoon?

[@yourrboyfriend.]

YES I WILL DEFULENTLY USE THIS FOR SEAFOAM **bad spelling intensifies**

[@luckityducky7290]

Do you think it would still look good if you used hack inch foam rather than 1 inch foam how the bucket part of it?

[@berryOwO]

9:58 o m g XD

[@Gur0Squid]

YESHHHHHHHHHH

[@evelinesuearner]

Wooou

[@henna694]

[@ashleyperkins3578]

Do you normally get 3” tall upholstery foam for your big foam or how tall? Or simply for the lower jaw and stuff

[@keeze4459]

very thin foam seens 3mm or 5mm?

[@staramoth]

I would love to have a fursuit but I would probably get sensory overload, or underload? Is there stuff you can do to make it easier to hear?

[@disrepcloven4258]

I have a quick question- my apologies if this has been asked- but when you were making the bucket foam part (like 2:30) you used pins to keep it together while the glue dried. My question is: doesn’t that get glue on the pins? I have this problem a lot and didn’t know if there was a better technique to use. If glue gets on my pins I often just replace them or have to try to clean the glue off. Again any advice is appreciated (lol even if it’s just “don’t stick your pins in the glue”)

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

I glue around the pins, and when it's dry/cold I remove the pins and glue where they have been

[@Wafflefriesarts]

I love lightfury but I haven't seen the movie and I was sick and I wanted to see the movie 😭

[@CaLuNours]

Hello can you do the same on the Toothless costume?

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

Yes

[@CaLuNours]

OK thanks

[@luciidsky5972]

this is not related to the video but if you have a chance to answer it, what do you use for lining your paws? i’ve been trying to figure out what and i’m not sure what to use :/

[@kugoly1786]

When i realized there was a PDF pattern. I rushed straight to Patreon 😂 then i didn't know how much to pay for the pattern so i got sad 😂

[@milanradic9800]

Maybe you can try making them and selling them on Amazon to earn way more money and also for ppl to by

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

No, that would be copyright infringement since I don't own the character

[@mrscheeky79]

just wondering where the pattern links and which size the foam is please? I was unable to find it on the links here. Many thanks :-)

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

You have to be a supporter on my Patreon to get the template

[@luckityducky7290]

what cost of the patreon (5$ 10$ e.t.c) would you pay for to have ascess to the patterns for the light fury?

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

The cosplay designs tier is 10$

[@luckityducky7290]

Mugiwara Cosplay thanks so much!!

[@ladyLoki-ec7zt]

Is there a difference an the way you made the night fury head and the light fury head. (Like in the shape or the size. Not the colors or eyes)

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

Yes, Toothless has more "ears", scales, longer head, small spikes

[@ladyLoki-ec7zt]

@@MugiwaraCosplay thanks i was just wandering. I love you work you inspired me to keep trying when makeing fursuits! Thanks!

[@rainbowfloofanimations976]

Hey does your foam ever absorb your hot glue?? That’s a constant problem for me...

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

That's not a problem here. Maybe your foam have a too low density

[@bananadino6739]

Oke but can u pls say how to use the patreon page. I pay $1 and then i can buy this patereon?

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

You support creators there and get rewards depending on which tier your choose. You don't buy the page. And you just make an account and add your payment info, and click the tier that you want

[@FilthySoapCore]

I cant order a balaclava in my country D: I hope it’ll be allright without one? :c

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

No, you need a balaclava for this. You can't order on amazon or ebay? But you can also make your own

[@zerosketches6308]

Could I also do this tutorial to make a toothless?

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

Yes :) (I also mentioned that in the description), you just make the head a bit longer, and the same goes for the ears

[@zerosketches6308]

Mugiwara Cosplay alright thanks!

[@xMaggie19]

Would I need to join the $50 patreon to have access to this template? Is the $15 just the template of your choosing for the month? Thank you :)

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

No, it's the cosplay designs tier

[@erinhagen5594]

How do I get one of these toothless heads and how much are they

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

You have to make it yourself because I don't do cosplays as cosmmissions (it's illegal)

[@Kandy_Axolotl]

Just asking but where do I get just the template for the head? I really wanna do a light fury fursuit and I can't seem to find where to get this pattern! Thanks in advance! -Chaos Wickerbeast 😊

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

It's on my Discord server but you need to be a Patreon supporter to access it

[@Reserve.s]

You make it look so easy. In reality... It's not

[@ruskiferret9736]

Can this tutorial be modified to become a cat? Ty

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

You can modify it to anything you want :)

[@ruskiferret9736]

Ok! Thanks because I'm trying to make a cat head with a moving jaw and wasn't sure if this tutorial could be modified!

[@miey5025]

Will you put the patterns on etsy?

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

I really wanted to but I don't think so because that would be illegal since I don't own the character, and I don't really want to take the chance and risk getting sued. That's why they are only on my Patreon. But if you know a way that would make it legal to put them up on my shop, please let me know.

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

But it's very easy to become a patron, you only need an email address and a Paypal or credit card when you create an account, and then you just select the tier on my page

[@miey5025]

@@MugiwaraCosplay Okay, I'll think about it but I think I try to reproduce it without otherwise I really love your work it's beautiful (sorry if I make spelling errors, I'm French)

I'm sorry but.. i NEED to be a patreon to get this pattern? I'm sorry but no. I just wanted to make a lightfury suitm

[@WolfiesWildCreations]

Hiya! Love your work, but I've got something to say about this one I feel like you could've done a little better with the head shape - don't get me wrong, it's recognizable, but.... A little awkward See, toothless and light fury are dragons, right? Yes, they have short muzzles, but... It should still narrow out to a dull point. The forehead shouldn't dip that dramatically - both toothless and lightfury's heads look about the same, and it's a smooth dip down to a point The way you sculpted it, no offense, made it look like a beluga whale Just something that I noticed! Maybe in the future if you end up remaking it, you could keep that in mind!

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

They are made that way so that it's possible have a decent version and it's an anthro version, if I made it more feral I wouldn't be able to see out of it. I know that because my toothless head is a bit longer than the light fury and it's a bit difficult to see out of it (I don't have that problem with the light fury.

[@WolfiesWildCreations]

Ah, ok! Understandable! ^^

[@starrieyedd1777]

cough cough.... light *furry*

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

No.. Fury, it is a cosplay, it has nothing to do with furries
