I’m making an animal skull for my senior art project, the base is made out of foam. Thank you furry community for being a guide for everything I need for the project!!!
Good luck mate 🐾
No problem happy to help
How’d it go?
@@theceoofsayingno7825Yeah, how did it go?
how did it go?? :0
i finished my fursuit thanks to your tutorials!! Kira (my fursona) has come to life thanks to you 💖
UR FURSUIT IS PRETTY!!
oh fancy seeing you here! ive been seing ur videos on my yt shorts lately
OMG HI MOON
HI MOON I LOVE UR VIDS!!!
oh hi moon!
I never really considered myself a furry in the past. I liked the idea of anthro characters and enjoy the art online, but I never had any real desire to make an OC or go to a con. I went to Comic Con last weekend to meet a friend irl for the first time ever, and he introduced me to a bunch of lovely people who happen to own fursuits. I was absolutely enthralled! I made fast friends with a few of them and they invited me to stay with them at their hotel, and join them for the third day of comic con, and even paid for my ticket because I could not afford it! I spent the first day being their Handler, and they decided not to wear their suits on the third day (they had full suits so it was really hot) but one of them was kind enough to let me wear her suit around for the day! that one weekend has made me absolutely obsessed with fursuits and conventions and stuff. I had SO MUCH FUN! I am actively looking into building my own suit because I certainly cannot afford to commission one, and your videos are AMAZING at assisting me in my endeavor. I have to learn all of this from scratch because I have zero experience or knowledge of tailoring, sewing, etc. I even made a fursona to showcase my newfound desire to express my feelings. Furries are amazing and I love you! thank you for being so unapolagetically wholesome. I will try to finish my head and handpaws so I can go with my new friends to MCFC in a few months. it will be my first furcon and I am so excited to finally join the rapidly expanding ranks of the furry fandom.
I just bought tickets to a con for my 10yo, and they've just informed me that they don't want a "costume" style they want a fur suit and I panicked. I'm out of my depth here lol this tutorial has me feeling SO much better! Thank you so much! Now off to attempt to make a dog day fur suit for a 10year old 😅
Wow! You’re a great parent!
Omw yeah！ A DogDay fursuit would look amazing!
I'm so glad you're still helping new makers get started on the journey. I've used this method for years for several suits and don't have any intentions of changing it :P
people should make a fursuit making class. and people can go there to make them!!
I agree
Look how clean the damn floors are. Hats off. 🎩
Your other one was so helpful to me when I first started, im so happy you’re revising it so other people to start making fursuits in the future
I’m so glad you redid this tutorial. Like Lyca said you helped me make my first suit way back in 2021. And now I make suits and sell them every so often.
I’m making a Mangle (fnaf2) head hand puppet and this tutorial was perfect for my base!
Thank you when I followed your first tutorial i thought you were crazy when I was using 2 inch thick foam 😅
I followed your old tutorial and used 1" foam for my first base back in 2021 and I think it still turned out great. Imma still improve from then by using denser foam and NOT stacking the muzzle horizontally 😅
THANK YOU. Commissioning one was so expensive, so a tutorial like this was really helpful.
You are the reason i want to make a fursuit! I plan on buying foam and make a fursuit so that i can have my sillies happy!
Thank you so much for this, Skye! I’m making my first ever fursuit (it’s just the head, tail and paws) and I’m really excited to get started!
how did it go?
Thanks to your tutorials I finally got to work on my fursuit! I'm nearly done already, only taping and furring now :D
Her voice is so calming an relaxing! Thanks for this bucket-head base tutorial, I will surely use it by the time I make my fursuit
Hot glue doesn´t effect me anymore. I´ve made so many "therian" masks..
same lol
Real
Fr
SAMESIES
I love how quick you speak and move, my adhd brain normally cant pay attention to tutorials lmao but yours are always great !!
Hey sky I’m just gonna say you are the one who helped me make my very first fur suit head thanks so so much for doing these toutorials
Ok i think I’ve just found the perfect channel for this.
very nice tutorial! i’m planning to make a spring bonnie head and this will be a good place to start!❤
Thanks skye! This is my second attempt at making a fursuit head and this time its going a lot better.
Went to go get the pattern on your site. Thank you for doing a proper land acknowledgment. It means a lot to all indigenous people ❤❤❤
thanks for updating this tutorial!
Thank you! I just got foam and I'm currently making my first fursuit thanks to this tutorial!
Currently doing this! Thank you for the great tutorial! I cut the base width too short and ended up with it being too small for my head, thankfully I have sooo much foam, back at it again!
I'm using this tutorial for a fursuit to wear to Furcon in South Africa! I'm 11 and this tutorial really helped me! Tysm Skye!!!
the goat is back
absolutely mystified by that grotty bit of wall in the upper-left corner, with the heavy-duty metal door-looking thing
looks like a fursuit making dungeon 🌈✨
LETS GOOO I was just thinking abt how I would want to make my fursuit head!!!!! Perfect timing
Thanks this really helped me with my first fur suit ❤
I'm a massive fan of you skye! I love your suits and your videos are amazing! they helped me make my first suit and second. I hope to meet you someday
perfect timing!
thank you! i'm making a cosplay for next halloween so this will be very helpful
thank you so much for this tut i made a fursuit for me and my friend and we have been wearing them for few days now we love this tut
Tysm I will use this to make my first fursuit!! Thx❤❤
I just made a bucket head from the previous tutorial video a couple days ago. I had to adjust the measurements up by an inch and a half to ensure it would fit.
i'm in the process of sorting out the tax file number and bank account stuff before i get my first job soon, when i get the job then i will start saving up for the materials so that i can use this tutorial to help me make a fursuit head. excited!
thanks for posting these videos, im really eager to make a head and these are very informative and to the point, its been a huge help!
This helps so much with my bringbonnie mask, cheers ! 💛💜
Yippee!! I'll have to use this when I get the materials!!
So glad i found your channel! Working on my first foam fursona mask and this was so helpful! Also if anyone has any tips for fursona making please let me know i want to make sure i have lots of knowledge on fursona making before actually starting my mask.
Thank you this was a lifesaver for making my first fursuit head! 😭🙏
Yay thank you skye!!
You are so talented
Wow thanks this is help me in the making of fursuit im beginner of making fursuits
Now this is incredible to see. Well Done
Thanks! Super clear and helpful!
This is so chaotic I love it 😭
You are a life saver Thank you.❤
yay new bucket head base tutorial!! :D
Your videos are very informative, thanks to you, my fursuit is great, great success.
in the time it took me to finish my head you made a new bucket head dummy tutorial!! low and behold the reason i have to start a new head is because i felt like the inch wide foam was too thick and warped the head when i put it on :D at least now im for sure certain where everything went wrong haaha. :’)
i made such for a paper mask, years ago.
thanks
this moment when you made bucked head 2 days ago from old tutorial and new tutorial shows up
Skye, can you do a tutorial for if the fursuit wearer has glasses?
Contact lenses?
@@GaysAnimations_ovo hmm good idea! Idk if they hurt tho I never had em
Minty(my fur suit) will be ready soon thanks to you!
Fun fact, (I learned this while messing with EVA foam and hot glue) apparently sweat makes it so that you can wipe it off easier, and it won't stick. Of course, be careful, and don't do this - I just happen to do this while getting into the flow of work. It also works if you're quick enough on wiping off the hot glue that's just been put down, but, again, don't do this.
Amazing
YOOOO a new bucket head tutorial !!
Made a base from referencing your videos so now it's time to make another thankies
I'm thinking of making a kinda kemono suit and then just normal cartoony suit:D i dont have foam yet, but ill have too force my parents upon it..
i know you didn't ask for this but you can find upholstery foam at joanns fabric :D
Skye! You’re my fav fursuitmaker! I hope to commission you one day when I get enough money :)
On the mannequin head thing. Lincraft, $20(ish) Foam Mannequin heads, usually sold for wig styling. If you grab one with a noticeable deformity, they may even knock a dollar or 2 off the price at the register (do not attempt to damage one for a discount though, they are watching you at all times for that.)
I’m pretty new to the furry community and I really wanted to make a fursuit but I didn’t know where to start, thanks for the tutorial!
this is a great method for bucket heads and all but my go to method is what I call the 'royal crown' method. I measure from the very top of my head to the chin for the vertical measurement, then glue the piece into a tube like normal, then take two sides of the top and bring them together, make a mark at the bend, and draw that mark all the way around to use that as a guide for the next step which is to make a zigzag pattern all the way around, with each angle touching either that line or the edge of the tube, to make a crown. I usually do it so there's only 7 or 8 triangles to glue together on top. this method makes a way smoother top of the head I've found.
perfect timing
SKYE I LOVE YOUUU!!(/platonic) IM DOING MY FIRST FURSUIT HEAD COMMISION BC OF YOU THANK YOUUUU!!!!
Thank you so much for all of your tutorials. They helped me when i was a beginner make and still do!
Can you make like a full tutorial for the head part you put on the bucket head because I'm gonna have a hard time not knowing how to do that part 😅
Looked this up worried nothing would be out there bc it’s so basic, thank GOD it’s here
the fast forward talks are funny lol XD
THANK YOUU
Your fursona is adorable
omg thank you for saying the error you made, although it's sad that i already followed the tut and have 2 inch foam but atleast i have money to get the 1 inch foam 😭😭😭
Thank god! The first bucket head I made was from the first tut, and its completley like.. it dosnt fit at all, hope this will work better ;-;
Yayyyy! Right after I used your old one 😢
I'm Planning to Make My First Foam Base Fursuit Head Soon And This Vid Will Deff Help Me Out :3 (Edit) IM DONE THE FULL HEAD AND PAWS EEEE ITS SO CUTE
I get so not concentrated a lot lol since I have ADHD I have to concentrate really hard but I finally am concentrating now!! Hah!
This is Rusty's corner in Dakotas account, I'm making a fursuit head!
Yaya I can't wait to use this video to make a bucket head
I do have a question: Which other methods are there besides the bucket head?
Like for Kemono/other kinds of fursuits ect?
To me, this is very impossible, but still love watching these videos
I didn’t look into fursuit making when I first decided to, and now I just have 1 inch foam blocks.
yoooo another one!
I've always wanted a fursuit
making my 2nd furson kass, tysm!
Thank you so much ❤ my first fursuit is down to you. Also, how do you cut foam all the time?! My hands are ded 💀
Don’t have thin foam… time to cut my foam down aggressively 💀💀
Not making a fursuit, but this is very useful for the cosplay I AM making. (It’s very similar though! It’s a stylized cosplay of poob/party noob from regretevator.)
Update I never made it cause it turned out horribly, but I AM working on a skulldog now lol. Lmk if any of y’all would wanna see that cause the fur ships in a week or so

Omg wow I’m so early 😮😮😮
genuinely curious where that specific foam strip you got is from? like an exact link, because i don't wanna get anything wrong lol
Im gonna try make one sometime soon! Just gotta find the foam... is the foam you use just called high density 1cm foam?
Hi does anyone know if it’s possible to make a suit with a moving jaw with this method? If not which method should I use?
I used my apolstry foam as a blanket while watching
Lol
hello I'm just getting started on fursuit making and was hoping to find out where you get your foam. I live in a little town and can't find a website or a physical store anywhere around for cm foam high density
I have a question just trying to educate myself so with the bucket head base can you make a fursuit head with a moving jaw?
Hey sky any tips im making 3 skulldogs
