Have questions? Leave them here! I may make a cheeky post tutorial section detailed QNA! Think like buzzfeed unsolved post-mortems!
PLEASE KEEP QUESTIONS RELATED TO THE FOAM CARVING PROCESS
Unrelated questions will be deleted!
How much foam did you use and how much? also do you think its ok to freestyle foam like: useing scraps to make the shape you want instead of wasting it?
What would you say is a good budget for a home-made foam base head like this. I mean including the bucket base. Also do you have any paper printable sheets with the relative dimensions for making a suit that I can use?
When you’re carving the small details like the ears and the nose, what’s the best way to do it? I mean, like how do you make sure you’re getting it as smooth as you possibly can?
When your making the ears, how big should they be? I know the faux fur makes it bigger, but still! Also, when carving the mouth hole to breath from, and it’s difficult to carve because of the hot glue, is there anyway around that?
Will you make a kemono head base tutorial?💕✨ (I love those suits)
I love how being a furry there’s no drama it’s just fun and doing what you enjoy
I mean there's lots of drama like the Kero incident that happened a few years ago and the newer one the Sappho thing most of them involved pedophilia and zoophilia so be warned
while there is SOME drama it is pretty easy to avoid, so i agree!! for the most part the furry community is super nice and welcoming so honestly im having a blast being a part of this fandom
"no drama" your community is full of pedophiles and zoophiles. check yourself
you cant stop this man hes doing what he likes i really respect that
i keep noticing you sniffing the nose of the furhead as ur fixing it
I am genuinely not a furry, I'm just an artist who loves character creation and storytelling. Watching people bring their characters to life and create them by hand into a wearable suit is super fun to see and makes me wish I could bring my OCs to life!
You can with cosplay!
Wow, a non furry being supportive? Something tells me it’s a bad thing that that’s rare
@@chaoscreature What?
It's a bad thing that I think it's fun to see people bring their characters to life? You do realize that's not limited to furries right lmao
@@midnitethedsixl4601 they meant it’s a bad thing that the non furry support is rare, not that your support is a bad thing. 😊
The 5 stages of being a furry: one, denial.
see this is why i love furries, you just like, share knowledge and have fun, whereas you might have to pay thousands to learn this, y'all actually care about each other and want the best for the community.
I’m adding this to my playlist of fursuit making tutorials! The first one is your old foam base tutorial, now the latest is this one! :)
Same
omgosh same :''3
is the playlist public? please i want to make one and i would appreciate if it was!
Same I’ll have to wait a while to save but in that time I’ll be doing a lot of research!
@@K4R0M11 I've only just started it but I'll be updating a public playlist for making one:}
I was literally in the middle of watching the original video, paused for a couple minutes reopened my phone, and this was here!
Just today I decided I want to try to make my first head, this timing is absolutely perfect
oh my same here mate! Lets goo
Good 🤞 luck
@@charlottecman970 awesome pfp lol
Same! Ill be starting mine in a few months probably
Finally after five years I have my own apartment and can make my own suit, I spent 7hrs; 5pm-12am, making just the muzzle, but it's so fun to hyperfixate on!
IM BUYING ALL THE MATERIALS I NEED NOW!!! i’m so excited to finally have a fursuit!
Not really a furry but I do enjoy seeing people and their creativity :)
The problem I have is when people encourage you how to make your own head base templates/shapes, there's practically nothing online on how to do that, there's one video on it on CZcams and you have to know how to draw perfectly in a specific art style and understand breaking down shapes in said drawing. What if I can't understand that? What if I can't learn that extremely specifically? It's frustrating because you need to buy all the good template shapes
I think I did something wrong because my dude does NOT look like that 😰
Yeah it’s not gonna look the same 😭
Trust me, your not alone
It doesn’t have to look the same. There are multiple styles of fursuit making 😂. And not everyone’s fursuit is in the same style. It’s just like art Broski. It can be mimicked but it’s also very expressive and full of variety
Rome wasn’t built in a day
Real 😭
My dad‘s making a fursuit for me with this same design! we bought your templates from your website!! I’m so excited, I will be making videos once it’s done and will be tagging you as well on every platform even TikTok if you have one!!!!!! Thank you ma’am Im so excited I love all of you’re fursuits you do amazing work!
hii! how was it because i bought the pattern too on a4 paper but i dont think its scaled right…
I’m following this tutorial for my very first fursuit head, which is currently still in progress. Your tutorials are super informative and easy to follow! Thanks for what you do!
How is your fursuit head going?
Oh, how much this video means to me.. it reminds me of when I first joined the fandom, when it was all so fun, back during anthrocon 2022, the still, warm wind, and all the fursuiters.. this fandom means so much to me, I don't think I even realize how much..
Skyehigh: *being amazing*

Hello Skye! I don't know if you will see this, but I just want to thank you for making us know how to make such beautiful works of art. Fursuit making is an incredibly hard and tedious job, but watching your tutorials makes it much more fun and easy. Thank you so much. I am almost done with the base of my 4th fursuit head and its looking absolutely amazing so far. Thank you so much Skye! We all appreciate you so so much. ❤️
i just wanted to say that I want to get into fursuit making not only for the experience of doing it and the community but also to make a fun career of it. i have been an artist for a long time and moving from 2d art to this translates somewhat but without help i would be completely lost. Your tutorials just click with me, thank you so much, I wish you the best of luck with future endeavors
I'm so hyped for this tutorial! Your tutorial from 2019 is how I learned how to make fursuit. Thank you Skye!
i swear you are a life-saver, ive been wanting to make a fursuit for like 3 years and i finally saved up enough money and bought the materials, i started and it got hard, so i watched your tutorial, My eternal thanks Skye
I can only say one thing, this is the most understandable tutorial in my life. Even though I live in Russia and don't know English very well, I understood everything perfectly. I will say one thing, thank you so much for such an understandable tutorial with pictures =)
This video is the DEFINITION of trust the process
I love how Skye is just a bit cringe but it’s not annoying and we love her for it
Oh my goodness! I've been wanting to make a fursuit my whole life, and this comes along!!! I was starting to get bored of my fursona (rip Lunar) but now I really want to make her a fursuit, aah!! Thank you, Skye!!
I dont think im ever gonna make a fursuit but im here during one of my nightly rabbit hole autistic deep dives and i just wanna say i love furries so much you guys are amazing
You make this look so easy! This still seems like a pretty daunting feat, but you make it look a bit more straightforward than I imagined it being.
Gonna act like I didn’t see that Bad Dragon sticker
when I made my third fursuit head, I followed the old tutorial you made, not gonna lie, he's the best-looking fursuit from that while ago.
Hey! I know what to use for eye blanks, I mainly use the cups minute microwaveable rice pots! They are easy to cut to the height you want your sides to be, and with an exacto knife if you make a small hole, you can then cut the eye mesh hole with small scissors!
Another option is, at Bunnings they sell these 99c plastic pots that come in white or black. You can use them two ways:
1: cut into the sides to make a nice beveled 2D eye
2: cut into the base of the pot to make some nice follow me eyes, similar to the rice pots!
Both of these can be cut with scissors, and are what I use for all my eyes! :)
I actually remembered from a long time ago from 2019 I saw you at the Brisbane Medieval event, then now, i went through the photo, and I went I know this nice person who allowed me to take a photo of them and a really nice person you are still today. And it seems like you have amazing content, keep up the awesome work, also a really interesting tutorial :) Subscribed
My bucket head is complete. Getting ready to start on the muzzle. My first time. Im 52 years old and my sons are in the fandom.
Tysm! Making my own foam base while watching this rn, most helpful tut out there :)
I’m building a new fursuit based on just a generic black wolf but with a very mature look. These tutorials help so much ^w^
I’m planning on working on a full suit, I will 100% use this head tutorial!
Yes!!!! I’m also going to do
@@Milla_cowin fursuit buddies ;D
Yes
I’m waiting for fur
@@Milla_cowin I’m in the middle of budgeting an order or fur!
all of your tutorials have been insanely helpful. my first fursuit has turned out suprisingly good!
for BEGINNER beginner- like- literally never touched a sewing machine or needle before ever, I’ve found that fur furring the head putting it on in strips is the safest way to go. Just start at the back of the head, making your way forward. keep the direction of the fur consistent tho!
Yes! This is so helpful! I’m about to start working on a suit, it’s been taking a while… Ahem procrastination Ahem. This is amazing! This is my first suit that I will be making everything on my own. I’m hoping to have it done by April! We have a lot of cool stuff that happens during the spring with Furries. We have some meet ups and stuff and my current suit is…. Um…. Crusty, for lack of a better word. His fur was cut very short and it was glued on in patches. Rip Turbo. Anyways, probably don’t need to tell my whole life story here. XD
Thanks again Skye! You’re a life saver!
Just in time! I watched this video 2 days ago but I just came back to rewatch It and comment! I'm going to carve the foam of my first head soon and this is very helpfull as I've learned a lot! Tysm for this
I am going to be a fursuit and I see several tutorials but this one helped me a lot, thank you very much ❤
I used this to make my first fursuit in secret in my bedroom. Now I’m coming back to make my fourth!! Love your videos!
I’m using this tutorial to make my first fursuit, and it’s been so helpful! Thank you so much for creating this! 💜
Super happy to see a cohesive new set of tutorials! Made my first suit using your original tutorial, but with the newer bucket head base to start. Went well until the lining step, since there wasn't a good way to adapt the old way to the new base.
Already have the base for my second suit head all carved and glued, so that lining section will come in super handy for continuing (Might go back and add some of those floof triangles first though, never thought of doing it like that ^_^)
Ty for making the process so much more accessible to everyone Skye, it's a surprisingly fun hobby to make these things! Looking forward to the rest of the tutorial.
This year was my forth Anthrocon and I was the photographer for Langley on the Sunday, and god dammit I was so envious of the fun everyone was having that my long term project this year is to make AT LEAST my own head!
After Months, i finally created my very own fursona. It is perfect.
I took lore inspo of poppy playtime 👍
I'm getting paid soon and I'm hoping to make my first suit head with this tutorial! My only problem is I'm still rather young and I'll grow out of it ...
Hello younger me. You are going to make one ✨️
We didn't ask for it, but we all needed it in our hearts.
This is the true definition of trust the process. God I wish I had a fursuit
I’m baselessly trying to convince my dad to buy the material/tools so I can do this but I like to watch your vids❤️
i was just working on my foam base from your last video!! so glad you made this an updated one :>>
19:35 the bean looks so concerned xD
thankfully, my suit is a bird, so i don’t really have to do as many details. Although i still used the cheeks and face structure for my boi. thanks so much :>
Making my second fursuit pray for me 😭🙏
Me too 😭😭
I’m praying 🙏
*prays*
I’m making my first 😅😅😅
Praying and being your first subrsciber because why not
Making my first soon I’m praying for us all 😅

Skyhigh: making her mask amazing with no problems
Me: WHY IS ALL MY PIECES TO SMALLLL
God, I havent thought of making a fursuit in YEARS- this really hits me with nostalgia, and it makes me incredibly happy to watch. It also makes me want to try making another head!
Thank you SO MUCH for this video!
I feel like I'm a new furry again ;w;
Even though I’m not a furry props to you for making it look Soo good 👍no hate
Edit: I’m working on a fnaf cosplay lol
Me too!!
I wanna see urs
Hello! I just wanted to thank you for making amazing tutoirals! You baseiclly turned my into a furry! Thanks!
I honestly have gotten to a point where I watch furry tutorials when I'm bored because I already know some methods and stuff! So that's perfect for when I'm a bit more confident about making a fur suit in the future!
I’m pretty young, looking on Etsy and everywhere! Never thought to make my own, when I saw this video I watched it- not sure how my mom will react when I tell her I wanna make it, I think she probably won’t mind but thanks for this your very clear on how to do it!
how did it go?
@@blueberrypie6993 Great! Like I said she didn’t mind, but she thought it was a little complicated for just a beginner youngster like me, so she got me a Dino mask!
My fursons is a seal idk how to make a seal
thsi really helps! i am new to the furry community and i dont wan't to spen hundreds on a fursuit, thank you for this (you've gained a sub)
Not a furry myself but I just find some of the fur suits people make amazing! Just goes to show what happens when you put time into something you love ❤️
I love the stickers on your Steve-o! I'm going to buy stickers for my new mannikin head. Where did you get the stickers? I would love to see a decorate your mannikin head video.
Haha these were all thrust upon me upon the closing of the furdu dealers den xD I didn’t buy any of them!
Hi! When it comes to the nose and nostrils, it looks like you make them with standard materials, but I sometimes see fursuits like Odin Wolf's where they have a smooth plastic nose with nostrils, I was wondering if this is something you have available? Thanks!
Ive seen around tiktok they add some plastic, pain it black and add some varnish, so its smooth and shiny
Paint*
It’s resin, you can buy them from DVC
This is SERIOUSLY helping, I'm a young fur and hope to make my first head soon so tysm!
I used to watch this and wish I could, but I have finally saved enough to afford the materials!
I've been wanting to experiment with styles and materials when making fursuits, and I was wondering if you thought that foam clay would work as a material for the head base?
Like ultra light air dry clay? I have a lot that I haven't been using, I think I might test that out for a kemono head base, thx for the idea!
@@thetownmenace you're welcome! Let me know how it turns out!
Ima do this soon you are great at telling people how to make a fur suit
This had been so helpful!! I'm finally an out of the closet so I can finally make my own suit!! Thank you so much!!!
This has to be one of the best fursuit head tutorials ever
This was so helpful for me! I was making my fursuit head and I couldn't get the muzzle right and this helped me so much! Thank you!!! :3
LOVE this tutorial! Whenever I see furs on reddit wanting to make their own suits, I always point them to you. There are some makers that just explain what they do with few images, or just speed through the process with no dialogue. You don't know how much I appreciate you actually breaking things down for us as you go. I barely have room in my house to make plushies, so making suit parts are a ways off for me, but when I get a dedicated craft room, I can't wait to bring my sonas to life! Thank you again! :-)
17:41 or you could use halves of DIY christmas ornaments; they're a great size (depending on your suit) and transparent ones aren't hard to find.
Even though I'm just now watching this, this will be very helpful for me long term. Thanks
Hope this will help me! Ty for making this video
That base is simply ADORABLE! thank your for the tips!
This is amazing! Thank you! I’m making a bear as my first fur suit, and I’m following your amazing tutorials here. :)
Just made my first fursuit head base for freddy and your tutorial was really helpful
I love this im making a fursuit head and this REALLY helped
Im only 12 but this is my hobby
Yes!!!! I’m trying to make my first fur suit head as my cousins birthday gift and this is such a perfect tutorial! Thanks so much!!! 😂
Very useful! I’ve been slowly making different parts of a partial and haven’t gotten enough confidence to try the head yet, but once I do I’ll follow this tutorial ^^
I’m starting now 😎 Just finished my bucket head base
@@anthonyj.crowley7361 hope it went well :) im just starting mine
Holy moly im so grateful for tutorials because when i started to make my first suit it started out bad then I did the very needed research and its not bad!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I am thinking of making a withered Freddy suit, and I feel like this really helped me out!
Best tutorial I have EVER seen thank you so much
I've watched and rewatched your other video from 2019 countless times.
I wanna cosplay fnaf one day but they dont post specific tutorials so im glad you've got my back
I’m sooo excited for part two! I have a playlist to make fursuits because I am gonna start making them!
15:35
William Afton: 🧍♂️
I have never had any problems with my t’s but listen to Skye! Better safe than sorry!
Your tutorials always make me want to pick this craft back up, maybe this time I will
This helps, as I'm planning my own fursuit build. - thanks for post this video
this helped, but im so stressed to make my first fursuit cuz i dont want to mess up EVERYTHING and it just goes wrong. Thank you for this
I can’t believe this worked my fursuit looks so good because of this
I'm serious about this, I'm gonna do this and make a half fursuit to look like my pet rabbit Howl. He's a dwarf bunny that's black with a white muzzle and a small brown patch on the back of his neck. He has brown eyes and white outlines around his eyes and me and my mom call him shadow bun ❤️ he has extremely small ears too, even the vet loves how small they are.
I didn't realize how amazing furries are until now
I don’t even want to or have the materials/money to make a fursuit, this is just so interesting and cool!
Tysm for this tutorial! I can now make a head!!
My friend recommended your head tutorials and they where right! Your heads look amazing!
This was a lifesaver ❤❤tnx skye I needed tips for my fursuit
I Made my first head a couple of month Ago, and im making another! I found it really fun and i would Wanna thank you for making me intrested in fursuit making!
1:34 "Not too expensive"
my mom: WHAT DO U MEAN NOT EXPENSIVE EVEN THE 2 DOLLAR IS EXPENSIVE SO EXPENSIVE I GO BROKE
Thank you for this video! I’m making a Revali cosplay from Zelda BOTW and this has helped me SO much!
