Suit up?
  Only if you help me with the zipper.
  That sounds hot, not in the good sense. (Itchy too...)

I love seeing peoples reactions to when I walk around
I wear ears, fangs, and a tail.
some little kids are adorable and ask if it's real *giggles*


Aww, that's adorable! XD I don't know weither I'd tell them yes or no, honestly, if put in that position. Which may very well happen, considering I walk around with a pair of cat ears and a tail frequently. Saving up for a convincing pair of fangs!

At the same time I thought I would ask, what's your opinion on fursuits?
Personally I find them a bit excessive and makes things a bit less realistic in my mind. I can understand having a fursona and wanting to bring it out and act it, but going mascot is a bit too much for me. Though to each their own, I don't condemn it.
sweatdrop Yeah that pic is disturbing. Well I do get what it is trying to say but at the same time it gives people a reason to hate furries.

But however I understand why they ask so much for a fursuit. I've tried to make one before and it takes alot of time to make it. I think it cost me about $300+ to get the stuff to make it. And because of the demand of fursuits, time, cost,and shipping; Is the reason why they ask so much for them.

I never got to finish the suit I started but here is where I went to help me get started.

(edit) ok I miss read the post XD sorry

But I like fursuits I want to make them and ware them for fun. I find it to be more of a form of art. I am for fursuits. But I would only use it for cosply and for fun, but nothing other then that.

I agree. with who? i have no idea. the person who said whoever wears fursuits have serious guts. I respect those people more then anyone. They might seem like mascots but to have the balls to go out there and practically advertise your belief among a crowd that is often agressive against such a thing.

Agressive, why tho? Probably because guys running around in sweaty fursuits breaks their false sense of security.

I've got my partial done (head, feet, hands, and tail) and it's a lot of fun to go out randomly in it. Only cost me about $70 bucks for materials and it came out pretty good cool

I see no issue with fursuits, it's just another form of cosplay in a sense, only a little itchy. Halloween is a great time to go out if you don't want to be bashed on, everyone seems to love fursuiters on halloween.

And I've found that people have less of a problem with furries when they have clothes over their suit.

Not a big fan of the suits. I'll do the ears, tail and some other stuff, but not the suit.

I'm actually trying to get into making fursuits. I love them, although I don't have one of my own. When they are built/made well and correctly, they don't even look like mascot suits IMO.

I had gotten at a Renaissance Fair
That's exactly where I got my tail, though if I remember correctly it only cost me $12 (I went to the one near Harrisburg). I'm still looking for a pair of ears though. I bought a pair of the ones that are on hair clips but they're too small to be wolf ears and they're black unlike my tail, which my fursona's a dark gray wolf but I'd at least like ears that match the tail.

As for fursuits, I quite like them. I'd get one myself if they weren't so expensive. I don't think I'd wear it regularly like some people but I'd probably bring it out on Halloween or if I went to some kind of convention.

I don't think I would ever wear a suit. Too much trouble. I'll stick to ears and tail.

But I do like seeing other people wearing suits. Some people get so in to character, and they're really entertaining. biggrin

@Kartina_KittyKat
Thanks for the offer but I'm going to try to make the ears as a little arts and crafts project for myself. All I need to do is find natural-colored fur since the tail is natural.

@Sinbane
Wow! Did you make that or is it commissioned? Either way it's gorgeous! :3
