Okay, if you're planning on bookmarking this entire blog, that's fantastic. If you just want to mark one post, you should tottally make it this one. Why? Because, that's why. I plan on revisiting this post in the future with updates to what I'm doing with projects. Let me break it down. My number one project at the moment is my Fur Suit.
Project: Suit Up!
Phase One: Planning
1a Reference Sheet.
Create a 3 sided reference sheet of the fursona complete with color palettes, and leave enough room for measurements.
1b Reference Model
This is more for a visual aid, a prototype of how it will all fit. Using clay and a mannequin for this step.
1c Measurements and Shopping list
Being a first time tailor, I need supplies, tools, etc. I will also measure the prototype for bolts of material.
Phase Two: Construction
(Steps to be decided)
Phase Three: Modeling and future Improvements
(Steps to be decided)
Any outside link or comments/emails given during the construction of this suit will be posted. Credit is given where credit is due. I'll also try and upload videos and pictures when available, such as prototyping, and construction of body parts, partial and complete.
I'm aiming to complete this project for under $1000. $500 will be great. I'll update cost of material, tools, etc. along the way. Although this project will take most of my time, I'm also planning on attending AnthroCon 2012 this year on the east coast. So I might get to meet some new furs. I'm not sure, but I'm putting in the steps to go anyways.
Thanks for reading! Updates to be posted soon.
