Title: (kinda) pony brag - it is a unicorn after all :D
Post by: fingerpaints on October 16, 2012, 08:41:29 PM
I have been working my hooves off to get my partial fursuit finished, of course it is my own persona, Neon. I finally completed it last night (the hooves were the last addition) in time for tafe today. Head, hands, feet & tail (can't see it too well, but its a traditional unicorn tail like a lion's with a tuft at the end) I am so happy with how it turned out, the head is my second attempt, so its not perfect, but I am overall happy with it. On to pic :D this one was taken walking through a job expo they had in the gym. I got a free pen for dancing :D

Another fursuiter! :frolic: Very impressive for a second suit. These things are not easy to make! I'm working on a FiM-style pony suit myself, but it's nowhere near finished. Foaming heads is so hard! :yikes:

Thanks kiwi :D I have wanted one of her for a while, being a student, simply couldn't afford to comission one so decided to try tacking the job myself. She does look like my girl, she isn't perfect, but with practice I am sure I can iron out the issues and get better (it was my first time working with foam which is such an odd medium to work with)

Just so glad that it made so many people smile, and I managed to visit some children without making anyone cry too - they weren't too sure on me (all under 3) but some did come up and give me a pat, and apparently two stood at the door saying "come back corney" after I had left lol.

I do have to work a bit on the inside of the head though, its not well ventilated and I think with a bit of work I can get it to sit better and be able to breathe easier in there. I wore it for about an hour straight 3 times and managed it fine, I wouldn't like to be in it much longer at this stage though.

Thanks all ^^ I just enjoyed making so many people smile & laugh, it was great to see adults being just as excited about her as the children lol. One of my teachers was talking to me in suit and said something along the lines of "I know you are in there, but its odd talking to that head, I don't know where to look" lol - just so glad my first experience was such a nice one :)
