Here I show what happens when I hole the tail on the first vs second segment.

In my opinion, the motion is slightly smoother when I hold the second segment. Plus it'll make transport easier, and a shallower angle means the tip won't drag on the floor.

Back on track!

Got more foam, glued the last pieces and I carved all the segments so that the tail can still bend and swish around.

I'M SO DUMB

I forgot to post this part, I tried to fix the twisting issue by fusing two plates then carving a groove diagonally. As you can see, it made it much much worse so I patched the diagonal groove and kept the two plates fused.

Man I've been really bad at documenting this..

I glued foam onto each plate, except the middle one cuz I ran out. You can see I fused these two middle plates together, and this actually helps with the twisting issue mentioned previously.

Proof of waggle

It's has some issues, the motion is pretty erratic but that should fix itself as I add foam and fur. However, the geometry of the tail makes it so the middle wants to twice, so I'll have to fix that.

Welp, I forgot to take lots of pics...

But I just cut then glued segments of the tail in EVA foam, these keep the segments stiff while they flex at the joints.

BACK IN THE FURSUIT MINES BABY

Time to make a tail! I started by making a sketch on some paper, transfered it to fabric (cat for scale). I've made it so the tip will be just above the floor.

With the ears sewn on, he's pretty much all done!

I just need to do a few final touchups like making accessories, hairspraying the braids and adding stronger magnets in the hair tuft

Finally, the back of the head and neck are all done!!

It took a while since my pattern for these parts was really bad, so I had to add, cut, dart, improvise...but in the end it looks good and it fits, so that's good enough for me!

You might have noticed a lack of updates lately, it's because you're all caught up!

Progress will be slower because work, but I finished the braids and started working on adding the neck.

Final piece was to make the neck.

I got a cheap pattern on Etsy, and it fit pretty well. I'll add it once the stitching on the back of the head is all done.

I finally got to the back of the head, which unfortunately didn't go so well.

I tried adding strip of velcro so I could access the inside. Turns out it wouldn't close all the way because of all the foam I added, so I started adding strips to bridge the gaps.

Some more work on little details

I lined and added a chin rest that I ended up having to move a bit later on. I then made some crochet braid rings, I'm supper happy with how the pattern turned out. I've made them removable so the braids can be maintained.

After trying the head on, I realized it really was not stable enough.

I was told to go wild on the foam so I did. I added padding to every spot that touches my face, with removable lining. I might actually have overdone it, but that's a story for a later post.

And finally, the final piece of the head (not counting the neck).

I saw a tutorial on how to make a mane-like hair and tried to do the same. It's not quite as fluffy as I would have liked it to be, but it looks pretty good when I'm wearing it!

Another detail that seems minimal but makes a big difference: the eyeliner.

It took me a while to make it because I was so afraid of gluing anything to the fur. Turns out, it's much better and safer to just glue it to the cup of the eyes.

Now on to smaller details on the face: lips and eyebrows.

The lip is made of very short velvet from fabric scraps, with the sides folded along the middle to make it cleaner.
I'm very disappointed for the eyelids, the magnets aren't strong enough to secure them in place.

Time to work on the smaller details!

I made the upper hair tuft with two magnets for easy storage and swappable hairstyles. Then, two horn sheaths to hide the locking mechanism. The fur transition isn't the cleanest, but oh well.

Here's a full build from that point, and I gotta say I was really happy with how it looked already! And cat gave his blep of approval.

I still had quite a bit to go though:
Bottom and upper lips, eyeliner, eyelids, horn sockets, braid ends, back of the head and neck.

Finally, the long awaited step...shaving!!

I cannot describe how nervous I was. And of course, it went wrong and I overshaved a spot. I tried needle felting some fur back in but it didn't work, so I cut it out and made an inlay which ended up surprisingly clean.

More work on the fluffy bits, finished the braids and main hair tuft.

The braids do lose shape when they fluff up, so I'll have to find a way to let me undo, brush, then re-braid them despite the braid rings. The hair and braids are all magnetic.
