My mum bought me 3 masks, some fur and mesh but she doesn’t know that I’m a mask maker. I’m just gonna make an excuse that I’m making one of my ocs for Halloween ;-; Edit: idk if she supports me making masks but she knows I’m a mask maker now!
I’ve felted 3 masks, all while watching this tutorial, and I always get so nervous. The only thing that calms me down is the Animal Jam music so thank you😭😭😭
im not even gonna lie, 8:39 was so inspirational because im so impatient and a perfectionist so when you said "its okay to restart" i actually took that in so deep and i have no idea why because i dont think it was at all a sentimental sentence
another thing to mention is that make sure you have enough felt for the mask! when cutting the felt, lay the mask on top of the felt and cut about 2-4 inches away from the mask. since the mask is a curved surface, you'll need more than just the shape of the mask to get a clean glue. great video!!
"another thing to mention" might come off as if you're saying that they didn't say that in the video, even if that's not what you meant I am just saying this so you know why you got this reply :3@@sixofspad3s
another thing if your risky w/ hot glue, from my experiences i recommend having a cold glass filled with water beside you (obv away from the mask to prevent water damage) incase you burn yourself -- helped me if i can say the least!
Too the two people calling Phenic pookie,It’s become a bit of an issue throughout the therian, dragon puppeteer, furry community and just content creators in general but please don’t call them pookie if they don’t even know you. It can be really uncomfortable and annoying when people keep calling them pookie/moots/ect. If you guys are friends then it’s okay unless they aren’t okay with you calling them that but as far as I know they never said anything about being able to call them that! The reason I say this is for informational purposes and I do not intend to be rude whatsoever. Have a great day/night!

Ill be using this soon hopefully :D
I would recommend saying just a mask, because saying therian mask makes people think you have to be a therian to have a mask, or you have to have a mask to be a therian:
making my first mask and I was scared that I would ruin all my hard work (base alterations) when i added felt but this has given me confidence to finally put felt!
Hey Phenic! I have awakened as a Therian three weeks ago and my masks have finally come! Thanks so much for making this video! It made felting so much easier!😊
@@averyy_avieeiOf course! It’s ok to wear gear even if you’re not a Therian! My mask was really fun to make and I can’t wait to make another! I hope you enjoy!

I'm so used to felting from the top because I never figured out how to start from the bottom, I was so scared so thank you! 6:49 "also be careful not to burn yourself 🙂" I REALLy needed that.
tutorial on how to not burn your hands off while doing this?? /j on a “serious” note, can you please make a tutorial on how to do the snout, because I felt the snout, then felt the mask and attach the snout but the hot glue looks shiny?? ooh and how do you make the eyes look so pretty! (The eye shape, don’t gatekeep, show me how to make those eyes looking scrumptious 🙏)
Oh wow. I didnt even know this video was made by you! I watched this video trying to felt my first mask. And i think this is how i met youre channel! I love youre videos!
thank you so much! can you also give a tutorial on how to paint the mask without the felt going hard? because yours look really soft but when i paint mine they end up feeling idk kinda rocky?
It’s honestly the same for me, i believe it depends on how much paint you use and how you blend it in. On my cross fox mask (my main mask) it feels rock hard because of how many layers of paint added
ty sm Phenic!! I've always struggled felting masks and always ended up giving up. this tutorial gives me chill vibes I love it, and now I don't have anymore troubles, ty!!
3:21 When felling with hot glue. When you are smoothing wrinkles, careful! Depending on the felt, the heat may go through the felt. Not burn you. But still might hurt!
I’m making a mask for my dnd character but I’ve never felted a mask before and I’m pretty nervous to start. This video is really helping me prepare and boost my confidence!
The AJ music!!! I l0ve it!!, it brings so much nostalgia! And also GREAT tut! I’m waiting for my masks to arrive! And I’m not confident in my work/art/something! Nvm the order got cancelled bc they sold out but I had already BOUGHT IT- so yahhh… (Edit: I have seen this tut 1000 times but it’s always wrinkled! But I just make it work.. but still great tut!)
great tutorial! here are some questions bc i might order some gear soon. 1. is felting optional? 2. what is felting even for? 3. any recommended stuff for eyes? 4. what do you use for fur?
Felting is optional, the felt is to make it look more realistic like fur, (so if you want something that’s not having fur i wouldn’t recommend felt), I use buckram mesh for eyes , and faux fur for fur :)
This is so helpful!! I'm going to be felting my first mask (I made only one before but didn't felt it) tomorrow wish me luck! I also made Fanart for you Phenic because you are awesome and cool and your video helped me!!!
thanks ! definitely gonna be using this tutorial once I make a therian mask >:33 also the animal jam music is so nostalgic ahh n your voice sounds really cool too! overall I’d like to thank you for this tutorial since this is actually really helpful and I think it’ll really help me n others for mask making edit #1 : the chicken sounds XDD
@@ATrixsterr like i said! Believe in yourself! 😊 i did! And after making one look bad i started another and it looked really good even if it was bad! Because i believed in myself😊❤️
I burnt myself so much but it was worth it. This is my first ever mask and it turned out great thx to you! Tysm for making this tutorial it really helped!
Im not 100% sure but ive seen other creators buy from etsy, ebay etcetera. No big companies such as amazon or shein or temu because they could be real even if they are advertised ad fake.
Thank you! I’m a big fan! I will try your tutorial when I will get my first ever mask i waited for it for a long time 🍄✨ Can you make a tut to felt with the cardboard muzzle ?
Pov: you're felting a mask at 2-3 am and run out of hot glue but all the hot glue is somewhere in your sleeping mother's room- 💀 (but this tut helped me a lot thx :3)
Another thing that I think should be said is having good quality scissors to cut the felt/other things. They are super important to get a good cut on the felt before gluing down edges, and for me at least, helps since the masks are so tedious and take so long to make leaving me impatient and able to mess up more often.
im js wondering where u get ur mesh? i got plastic mesh but i realized it was too bulky/hard to glue to a mask so i was wondering where to get so,e like that :)
Oh my god, I love how you have the Animal Jam music playing in the background. It’s so awesome and it sets the mood perfectly. Im obsessed with animal jam too
I had the wrong type of felt, didn't do the correct gluing, my glues too strong to reuse the base and I would have flatted the mask if I tried to press down the felt, the felt moved on the first glue and now its not even, RAHHHHHH Update I ripped off the felt but 2 layers of the mask's paper is now gone
I love how Phenic told us it was ok to make it differently as long as it works, or that we shouldnt care If we put the fuzzy side :) Im a beginner at making masks and i get kind of upset about all that on the above lol
I have some tips to tell them if you want to🫶🏽 -make sure they not busy and that they not in a bad mood🩷 -try explaining what it is and then slowly start tell them that ypyou think you’re a therian🐾 -I’m sure they will support you cuz they love you but if you feel like they don’t understand or something then you can make a PowerPoint and show them🫶🏽🫶🏽 -tell them why you want to make a mask and make sure they understand what theriopy means🍃 But take you’re time and don’t stress for telling them and if you feel like they won’t understand you then don’t tell them🫶🏽 Also make sure to don’t lie🖤
Tips If they are open minded then tell them and explain If they are not Say that you found this animal mask that you want to decorate When you get it and decorate it Act like what ever your therian type is and say I like acting like it then eventually explain what a therian Just a slower process 😊 Hope this helps!
Question their opinions on furries and therians, if they don’t know ex0lain slowly and saw it’s a ‘belief’ that’s what I did, but I’d rather be honest. Hope this helped!
As my mum always says, “you can always fix a mistake, there is always a way.” Even though it may not always be true, its tsill something to take in!❤ making masks isnt always about perfection, but if you have fun making it! When people make masks to sell, making it nice and smooth is important, but there is no such thing as “perfect” so please dont stress, because i find that when i stress i actually do it worse! 😊

@@CircleAnimations-jt3vl if you want something that offers more vision then insect mesh works pretty well, if you want something that looks better painted but offers less vision then I find "spacer mesh" works well.
Insect mesh
pros. offer more vision, thin material, easy to glue gun on the back.
Cons. When painted the paint is less visible, other people can still see your real eyes.
Spacer mesh
Pros. Offer a really good finish to the painted eye, your eyes are not visible at all, glues on the back vet well.
Cons. Thicker material so less vision, using incorrect paint can block vision all together.

another thing if your risky w/ hot glue, from my experiences i recommend having a cold glass filled with water beside you (obv away from the mask to prevent water damage) incase you burn yourself -- helped me if i can say the least!
Room temperature water is best for burns, it will prevent more damage. Cold water reduces blood flow, reversing the healing process of the burn.
For the eyes i just use my sciccors to push it down to avoid burns

Hey Phenic so uh can u tell me where can i buy a tail thats not from real animal fur? I really need it. Thanks.
Im not 100% sure but ive seen other creators buy from etsy, ebay etcetera. No big companies such as amazon or shein or temu because they could be real even if they are advertised ad fake.
I bought tail from allegro
I searched; Fur allegro
But in polish cuz im from poland
In polish: Futro allegro
Check if it says faux fur, if it’s faux fur then it’s not real animal fur
@@AmeliaDuchnowska-qb5mu but most fur farm companies use “faux fur” in the description of real animal fur so be careful on that too
Omg, Phenic! I really do it with no wrinkles! I am so happy!!! Thank, you so, so much!!!
Thank you! I’m a big fan! I will try your tutorial when I will get my first ever mask i waited for it for a long time 🍄✨
Can you make a tut to felt with the cardboard muzzle ?
Thank you for doing this I always have trouble with putting felt my mask ! This helps alot!! THANKK YOUU!!
Omg this is gonna be super useful for when my kigurumi mask arrives so tysm 💛^_^
Pov: you're felting a mask at 2-3 am and run out of hot glue but all the hot glue is somewhere in your sleeping mother's room- 💀 (but this tut helped me a lot thx :3)
Omg this is so helpful, you just gained a new sub ! (Keep up the good work ❤❤)
I’m a new therian and this helped me SO much
my masks will come in 4 days
and I’m buying felt today
thank you phenic
4:05 the noise the hot glue gun makes is so funny to me!😂😂❤
thank u so much for this video! i watched it while felting my mask it was so helpful phenic :D
Watching this every time y’all remind me so when I have the materials I can remember or watch this. :3
What is the best paint(or markers)? Last time I painted with acrylic and it ended up looking like I smeared diarrhea on it😭
I use acrylic paint
@@PhenicFox okay!! Thats for replying a dream come true!
hot glue touching gang can like this comment:
PERFECT!! I made my first mask ever with this tutorial and it looks really good!! i still have to put the eyeshadow on it (my paint lol) though :)
My anxiety when your hand was Right next to the hot glue gun:📈📈📈📈
Tysm I just NEEDED this 😺
Another thing that I think should be said is having good quality scissors to cut the felt/other things. They are super important to get a good cut on the felt before gluing down edges, and for me at least, helps since the masks are so tedious and take so long to make leaving me impatient and able to mess up more often.
im js wondering where u get ur mesh? i got plastic mesh but i realized it was too bulky/hard to glue to a mask so i was wondering where to get so,e like that :)
I got mine from Joanne’s but any fabric store probably have some they usually come in rolls or sheets like squares of felt
@@percy.the.cavekidoh thanks!
I found mine at a local crafts store
@@PhenicFox okay ty :)
You can use mosquito net like material
OMFG I NEEDED THIS SO BADLY
When I was working on my mask I accidentally put it fuzz up but now I watch this tutorial it’s helped me A LOT thank you so much

@@Skunkzzzzzzz lol
Oh no😢 0:29
Oh my god, I love how you have the Animal Jam music playing in the background. It’s so awesome and it sets the mood perfectly. Im obsessed with animal jam too
:0 YES TY I NEED THIS SO MUCH RN
I had the wrong type of felt, didn't do the correct gluing, my glues too strong to reuse the base and I would have flatted the mask if I tried to press down the felt, the felt moved on the first glue and now its not even, RAHHHHHH
Update I ripped off the felt but 2 layers of the mask's paper is now gone
I felted my first mask while watching this, and I just have to say that this tutorial was so helpful and I absolutely love how my mask turned out!
Not a therian but i love making stuff like that! I don't have one like this but ill make my own base and this helped me so much!
Yay!! I’m a therian and I love seeing people who aren’t therians and do quads/make gear
3:51 “You don’t want it to get messy”
*Me that has a desk full of doodles and paint*
…
lol same
I love how Phenic told us it was ok to make it differently as long as it works, or that we shouldnt care If we put the fuzzy side :)
Im a beginner at making masks and i get kind of upset about all that on the above lol
Ty for this tutorial I will love this when I get my therian gear 😊
Don’t call it a therian gear! It makes people think that you have to have a gear to be a therian or that only therians can have one.
@@wet.pawzzzzz oh sorry
@@wet.pawzzzzz she didn’t know don’t be rude
@@Duolingomehehet i wasn’t being rude? i said it politely
I am scared to tell my parents that i am a therian so any one please help me with tips. Btw I am a new therian in a mask progress rn
Don’t tell him just make a mask
@@josephhirzel606them
I have some tips to tell them if you want to🫶🏽
-make sure they not busy and that they not in a bad mood🩷
-try explaining what it is and then slowly start tell them that ypyou think you’re a therian🐾
-I’m sure they will support you cuz they love you but if you feel like they don’t understand or something then you can make a PowerPoint and show them🫶🏽🫶🏽
-tell them why you want to make a mask and make sure they understand what theriopy means🍃
But take you’re time and don’t stress for telling them and if you feel like they won’t understand you then don’t tell them🫶🏽
Also make sure to don’t lie🖤
Tips
If they are open minded then tell them and explain
If they are not
Say that you found this animal mask that you want to decorate
When you get it and decorate it
Act like what ever your therian type is and say I like acting like it then eventually explain what a therian
Just a slower process 😊
Hope this helps!
Question their opinions on furries and therians, if they don’t know ex0lain slowly and saw it’s a ‘belief’ that’s what I did, but I’d rather be honest. Hope this helped!
As my mum always says, “you can always fix a mistake, there is always a way.” Even though it may not always be true, its tsill something to take in!❤ making masks isnt always about perfection, but if you have fun making it! When people make masks to sell, making it nice and smooth is important, but there is no such thing as “perfect” so please dont stress, because i find that when i stress i actually do it worse! 😊
Who is here in 2024?
