I noticed that thread wasn't mentioned in the video, unless it's not considered a tool. But for those wondering about what thread to use, I thought I would leave a few tips. I've noticed polyester is the most common thread used in fursuit making. Poly is going to be more durable than cotton. In regards to thread weight; I've heard people say they like to use upholstery grade since it's the strongest you can get, but other makers get along fine with standard weight. Especially if you're using a sewing machine. Some machines don't like to sew with the heavy thread. Hope this helps! ❤
To go along with the clothing rack, I also recommend a scuba hanger!! I started using one recently and it’s a game changer! So much stronger than any other hangers I tried, which would ultimately break 😵💫
This year's the year I finally give it a shot, and your videos have been extremely helpful! Guess I need to go find a thift store to get a used sewing machine instead of the Singer I was looking at hahah
I have a lil note about the pins. I like the shorter ones with the round heads for sewing ONLY. It goes through my sewing machine better and less chance of me getting stabbed with the long needle. But I do use the long floral needles for pinning foam down and glueing fur down because its easier to see and harder to lose in foam/fur
Just got back from my first ever fur con, NFC in Sweden, been in this fandom for 10 years now and I never thought I'd want a fursuit until now. How doomed am I if my first ever attempt at a fursuit is a vernid?
Im not even a furry but I'm watching how to make fursuilt for the second evening today. So fascinating. And i love your own fursuilt, her face is incredibly cute!
All right! I made the right choice choosing Wahl dog clippers. What's the top choice of airbrush guns among fursuit makers? Gotta smoothly transition the color patterns
I just saw Skye’s tongue. It looks so realistic. I’m working on a suit and haven’t completely decided on the tongue fabric, but it won’t be fur or felt. Can you recommend?
Can I just use short fur instead of shaving long fur and still get a good result? (I want to use faux fur in my future costumes, actually I’m going to use it in a WIP costume, so I need to know this)
What's the best way for a new fursuit maker to get started making fursuits for other people when they don't have a body of work to show off and get commissions?
💀🪦 Dude the timing when I want to see what this crafting technique takes and so odd I think either your or another’s vid last week when vid was posted not longer than a month ago and everything’s out of stock from the links but I mean this just came out a day ago AND ALMOST EVERYTHINGS ALREADY GONE brah xD I guess common in this crafty community sheesh lolol

Thank you for this video. Now I know. Tons of great info here. Love the video. Keep up.the great job.
As an 11 year old therian/furry you really give me the confidence to create myself a fur suit 🫃
Same!
So glad you mentioned PPE like a respirator. I feel like a lot of people would skip over that.
What would your tips be to work in a semi fast but consistent pace without really rushing? When making a suit?
raahh been waiting for episode 6!! Always a treat when I see a new Skye video :]

Hello!!
I just saw Skye’s tongue. It looks so realistic. I’m working on a suit and haven’t completely decided on the tongue fabric, but it won’t be fur or felt. Can you recommend?
What do you use to cut and mold foam for the base?
Can I just use short fur instead of shaving long fur and still get a good result?
(I want to use faux fur in my future costumes, actually I’m going to use it in a WIP costume, so I need to know this)
It will have a bit of a different effect but yes

You can be a furry without knowing how to draw! If you like anthropomorphic animals then you are good to go! 😸
