Fursuit Collaboration - Stage 2
Added 2018-05-21 20:58:54 +0000 UTCHere it is! The polls are complete and we enter that next stage in Beetlecat's Patreon fursuit collaboration.. design and construction!
How this is going to work is, each month I expect to have some interesting progress to show on the design and/or construction of the firebird fursuit.
It will not be taking the place of a regular slot, but instead will be made in moments here and there as I feel inspired (though this does not mean it will be pushed aside or forgotten) and I will have regular videos, photos, tutorials, and general check-ins regarding my progress as well as questions for you!
There will be many many new ideas for me to put into this suit, and I hope you will all continue to help me with your own ideas and innovations. My Patrons are a very clever bunch and I still need your help to really make this costume shine :D I want it to be completely innovative, unique, and spectacular! I want it to show the public (to the best of mine and your abilities') the true cutting edge of fursuit design ^_^
Step 1 - the Head!
The photos above show some of my inspirations for head and beak shapes. My first step is to design the head shape using a small scale model and then I will recreate that on a large scale.
Once this wearable sculpt is complete and molded, I will offer exclusive casts of it to all my patrons! You will have access to this as soon as it's available (my very first resin bird!!) and you may even craft your own firebird fursuit head with me as I make mine (or beat me to the punch if you wish haha)!
This particular design will forever remain a Patreon-exclusive as a thanks for getting us this far.
Excited? I hope so! I can't wait to start sharing my progress with you here :D

My question for you this month is:
Inspiration!
Show me your favorite bird photos and bird fursuits so we may be inspired!
